What is Buffalo Hump?

The accumulation of excess fat in between both the shoulders, develops into a condition known as “Buffalo Hump”.

Although a buffalo hump is not a fatal condition, but it can be extremely uncomfortable and even painful sometimes.

Types of Buffalo Hump Removal in Dubai:

At Dynamic Aesthetic Clinic, Buffalo Hump can be treated by the following 2 methods:

• Liposuction: Buffalo hump liposuction uses a small cannula to eliminate excess fat from the back of the neck. It also recontours the remaining region for a smoother appearance. 
• Surgical Excision:  Buffalo hump surgery corrects fibrous fatty hump through excision. The process causes visible scars, but they are temporary. Surgery can also be combined with lipo or minimal invasiveness. 

Cost:

Buffalo hump removal costs range between 6999 AED and 7999 AED, depending on the type of method and size of the hump. The cost is different for liposuction and hump removal surgery, so the final cost will be decided after choosing the suitable treatment option.
