Jowl liposuction under general anaesthetic removes fat along the jawline while you are asleep, often during a facelift or neck lift.

A general anaesthetic is usually chosen when jowl liposuction is combined with a facelift or neck lift, when larger areas are treated or when the patient prefers to be asleep.

If jowl liposuction is the only procedure, a local anaesthetic may be possible instead.

Liposuction removes fat but does not tighten loose skin, which according to the NHS is the purpose of a facelift, so people with firm, elastic skin and mainly fatty jowls suit liposuction alone.

The NHS is clear that liposuction does not cause weight loss; a compression garment is needed for several weeks, numbness can last 6 to 8 weeks and the final shape appears only when swelling has gone, which may take up to 6 months.

Flying home: UK aviation guidance has no figure for cosmetic surgery, so book the flight after the surgeon's wound check and walk about regularly on board.

Gurgaon has plastic surgery services in both hospitals and day-care clinics, and for anything under general anaesthesia an on-site intensive care unit adds a margin of safety.

The National Accreditation Board for Hospitals & Healthcare Providers (NABH), part of the Quality Council of India and accredited by ISQua, sets India's national hospital standard, and its website lets you confirm whether a Gurgaon hospital's accreditation is current.

Before booking cosmetic surgery in Gurgaon, check that the surgeon is listed on the National Medical Commission's Indian Medical Register and ask for their medical council registration number.
