Facial Liposuction in Riyadh
Watching what you eat and exercising may not be enough to give you the appearance you desire. No matter how well balanced your diet is or how much you workout, the contours of your face may not improve. The roundness and prominence of certain facial features may require outside help to allow them to look the way you’d like. For this, Dr. Fouda recommends facial liposuction at his Riyadh practice.
What is facial liposuction in Riyadh?
Facial liposuction is a procedure that is often done in concurrence with neck and chin liposuction. This procedure is done to remove localized fatty deposits in the face and the undersurface area of the neck and chin. Facial liposuction is often done around the cheeks and in front of the ears to create better contours.
Facial Liposuction in Riyadh removes abnormal fatty deposits and the effects of aging such as plumper, rounder cheeks. It is often performed on patients who have recently lost a large amount of bodyweight but their faces remain fleshy.
Why is facial liposuction performed with neck and chin liposuction?
Because of the positioning of the neck and chin in relation to the entire face, in some patients facial liposuction simply isn’t enough to remove all excess fatty deposits.
Everyone carries their weight differently and when you meet with Dr. Fouda for your initial consultation, he will evaluate your skin and the existing contours of your face to determine if you will require neck and chin liposuction to complement your facial liposuction procedure. You may be a candidate for non-surgical fat reduction with BELKYRA® injections. Normally, most patients will ask for their chins and necks to be worked on as well when they are getting a facial procedure done. Many individuals choose to combine buccal fat removal with facial liposuction in Riyadh to address both surface and deep fat layers. This combination enhances the mid and lower face, creating a sculpted and youthful look.

Procedure
Facial liposuction is typically performed under local anesthesia with sedation, though general anesthesia may be used depending on the extent of the procedure. The surgery usually takes 1 to 2 hours.
Dr. Fouda begins by making tiny, well-hidden incisions—often placed behind the ears or under the chin. Through these openings, a thin, specialized cannula is inserted to gently break up and suction out excess fat. The goal is to create smoother, more defined facial contours without damaging surrounding tissues.
The incisions are then closed with fine sutures, and a compression garment is applied to minimize swelling and help the skin conform to its new shape. The procedure is done on an outpatient basis, so patients typically return home the same day.
What is the recovery process like?
You will need to visit Dr. Fouda a few days to a week after your surgery to ensure that you are healing nicely. Immediately following your procedure you will need to wear a supportive chin strap and bandages to keep your face elevated.
It is normal to experience swelling and bruising for the first 1-2 weeks post-surgery and if you find yourself in pain, Dr. Fouda can prescribe painkillers to help alleviate your discomfort. Some patients find that the pain is so minimal following facial liposuction that they are able to mollify it with over-the-counter pain medication.
It is recommended that you take a week before resuming your everyday activities and stay home from work for at least 4-5 days following your procedure. If you must return to work in the days right after your facial procedure use extreme caution so as to avoid bleeding. Simple functions like talking and eating may prove difficult in the immediate days following your liposuction but once the swelling and bruising subsides these difficulties will disappear.
Who is the ideal candidate?
Ideal candidates for facial liposuction in Riyadh are individuals who have stubborn facial fat that doesn’t respond to diet and exercise. These patients often feel that their round or full facial appearance doesn’t match their overall body profile. Candidates may include people who have lost significant weight but still retain fullness in the face, or those who are looking for a more sculpted, contoured facial appearance. You should be in good overall health, a non-smoker, and have realistic expectations about the results.
