Buffalo Hump Removal Overview
A buffalo hump refers to a build-up of fatty tissue at the back of the neck, often caused by factors such as weight gain, medication use, hormonal changes, or posture issues. While not usually harmful, it can affect both appearance and comfort.
Our buffalo hump removal procedures use advanced surgical VASER liposuction to precisely remove excess fat while preserving the natural contours of the neck and shoulders. Each procedure is carefully tailored to your anatomy and aesthetic goals, ensuring safe, effective, and well-balanced results.

I am so happy with my liposuction procedure, my arms and abdomen look sexy now, and I am so happy with the service. The staffs are amazing, and I will definitely go back for another procedure.
Jeanne Love
What an incredible transformation! Ive felt so self-conscious about my chest all my life. Even at my skinniest I always seemed to have something there. Turns out it wasn’t just fat but my milk glands were slightly large. The surgeon did such an amazing job cutting round my nipple. Removing the glands. Liposuction around outside. With a total invisible scar. Amazing job. Amazing service. Would recommend it to anyone!

What an amazing experience! I’ve always struggled with stubborn fat around my abdomen. The team made me feel so comfortable from start to finish. The Vaser Liposuction procedure was smooth, and the results are incredible. my stomach looks so much more toned and contoured now and the care I received throughout was exceptional. Couldn’t recommend them highly enough!
