LipoSound Facial Liposuction
A case study of a male patient in his 30s who achieved a sharp jawline through LipoSound ultrasonic liposuction, focusing on stubborn double chin fat.
* Basic Information
# Male in his 30s
# Stubborn double chin fat that remains despite consistent dieting
* Consultation
# By using ultrasound, we can break down subcutaneous fat into fine particles. (Think of it as turning ‘orange pulp’ into ‘orange juice’.) This allows the fat to be squeezed out through tiny openings, and since it can be removed using only a small cannula, the procedure is highly effective.

* Plan
# Ultrasonic Liposuction (Double Chin & Jawline)
* Post-operative Progress
# The blunt, heavy look has disappeared thanks to the jawline and double chin liposuction!
Principles of LipoSound
# ‘LipoSound’ can be understood as a device that uses ultrasound to emulsify fat. Because it liquefies fat particles—like turning orange pulp into juice—it offers several benefits:
1. Much smoother process – Fat can be squeezed out like water without applying significant force, and it can be suctioned using only a small cannula. This results in less irritation, leading to faster recovery from bruising and swelling. Consequently, ‘bio-bonds’ (post-surgical adhesions) are also significantly reduced. 2. Since ultrasound is emitted beneath the dermis, it provides additional skin elasticity and lifting effects. (As you may know, devices like Ultherapy, Shurink, and Doublo Gold all operate on ultrasonic principles.)
Consultations and surgeries should be performed by a board-certified plastic surgeon!

Complications and side effects such as bleeding, inflammation, infection, and asymmetry may occur after surgery, and caution is required as results vary by individual.
Frequently Asked Questions
What is the principle of Liposound liposuction?
Liposound liposuction uses ultrasound to liquefy fat. It helps to effectively suction fat particles, which are like orange granules, by making them smooth like juice, even with a small cannula.
What are the advantages of Liposound facial liposuction?
Liposound facial liposuction has the advantage of faster recovery from bruising and swelling due to less irritation. Additionally, there is less adhesion (bio-bond) after surgery, and ultrasound can provide additional skin elasticity and lifting effects.
Which areas can Liposound liposuction be applied to?
Liposound liposuction is mainly applied to remove fat from facial areas such as the double chin and jawline. It can help improve a dull appearance and create a sharper facial line.
Does Liposound treatment also improve skin elasticity?
Yes, you can expect skin elasticity improvement effects after Liposound treatment. Because ultrasound is emitted from under the dermis, you can additionally achieve skin elasticity and lifting effects, similar to the principles of Ulthera and Shurink.
How long is the recovery period after Liposound liposuction?
Liposound liposuction causes less irritation than general liposuction, leading to faster recovery from bruising and swelling. The exact recovery period varies by individual, so it is best to consult with a specialist.
