Most of us have, at the least, some minimal imperfections. If they are located on the body where clothing can hide what you don’t want everyone to see, that’s a good thing. But, what if you have less than desirable features on your face and neck area that are virtually impossible to cover up? Excess fatty tissue can result in a flabby looking jawline and neckline. If these flaws describe you, then you may want to consider facial liposuction in Scottsdale.

As a double board-certified plastic surgeon who limits his practice to treatment of the face and neck, Dr. Caniglia has achieved an extremely rare level of expertise. His patients come to him because they trust their looks to someone with his specialized training.
Why liposuction rather than a face lift?

In some cases, the treatments are combined with a facelift to achieve the ultimate desired results.
How do I know if I am a good candidate for facial liposuction?
As Dr. Caniglia tells it, “although each case is unique, through my years of experience, I have found that the best candidates are younger patients because they have outstanding skin elasticity, excellent muscle tone, and strong bone structure.” He notes that women with very little fatty tissue around their facial anatomy are generally not good candidates for a facial liposuction procedure. Men who consult with Dr. Caniglia about facial liposuction are often disappointed to learn that a woman’s skin is more responsive to the procedure.
