Neck: Lipo can be performed it is usually caused by steroid use, high chance of seroma as well as wound dehiscence i would recommend going to your internal physician to get checked out first.

Ultrasonic lipo: Dowager's humps on the back of the neck are fibrous fatty tissue. On the posterior neck and upper back, ultrasound is more effective at breaking up the fat and it can then be suctioned out with liposuction. Ultrasound should be used very cautiously on the anterior neck.
