What is Buffalo Hump Surgery? Everything You Need to Know

A buffalo hump is a common term for an extra pocket of fat at the back of the neck and shoulders. While it’s not a life-threatening condition, many people want to remove their buffalo hump for aesthetic reasons. Buffalo hump surgery is a common form of plastic surgery that can help you feel more confident and comfortable with your body. Ideal Face & Body in Beverly Hills, CA offers buffalo hump removal by top surgeons in the field. Here are some helpful things to know about buffalo hump surgery.

What Causes a Buffalo Hump? 

Many people develop buffalo humps as a result of obesity. They can also be caused as a side effect of certain medications that affect your weight and metabolism. Cushing’s syndrome also may result in a buffalo hump, in some cases. However, many people develop a buffalo hump without any apparent cause. Although buffalo humps are not threatening to your health, you may opt to have it removed simply because you think it’s unattractive. They also can cause some physical discomfort if the buffalo hump is particularly prominent.

How Does Buffalo Hump Surgery Work? 

Buffalo hump surgery can be done using a variety of liposuction methods. In particular, liposuction techniques using microcannulas are very safe and effective for getting rid of the buffalo hump. The procedure is relatively comfortable and safe, with minimal side effects. The simplicity of this procedure makes it a safe, non-intimidating option for patients wanting buffalo hump removal.
