• Liposuction: the fat that is between the skin and the muscle is extracted. Local anesthesia is required and its price is 2,500 euros.
• Vertical Contour Surgery: In addition to reducing the double chin, the definition of the submandibular angle is improved. Through a four-centimeter incision under the chin, both superficial and deep fat are reduced and the size of the muscles and even the submandibular glands are worked on. This process now requires general anesthesia and costs €4,500.
• Cervical lift: It is a good method for treating cases of laxity or excessive laxity of the skin or muscles. Its purpose is to tighten these muscles while shaping the neck, thereby retracting the skin, returning it to its original state. Depending on each patient, the incisions are made under the chin or around the ears and cost around 7,000 euros.

If, after taking into account the medical examination and the patient’s preferences, a decision is made to intervene with surgery, Dorsia Clinics is committed to two alternatives. The first one is high resolution liposuction. Through the new PAL technique, which works selectively and involves a less painful post-operative period, excess fat is extracted from the area and the skin is re-tightened.
