LipoSound Facial Liposuction
A case study of a female patient in her 20s who achieved a defined jawline through LipoSound ultrasonic facial liposuction.
* Basic Information
# Female in her 20s
# Stubborn double chin fat that persists 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 extracted through tiny openings, and since it can be removed using only a small cannula, the procedure is highly effective.
# If you are curious about how liposuction is performed at VIBE Plastic Surgery, please watch the video below first ^^
* Plan
# Ultrasonic Liposuction (Double Chin & Jawline)
* Post-operative Progress
# The heavy, blunt look has disappeared thanks to the jawline & double chin liposuction!
The Principle of LipoSound
# ‘LipoSound’ is a device that uses ultrasound to emulsify fat. It liquefies fat particles, which are normally like orange pulp, into a juice-like state.
1. Much smoother ~ Fat can be squeezed out like water without applying great force, and it can be suctioned using only a small cannula. Therefore, there is much less irritation, leading to faster recovery from bruising and swelling. Consequently, ‘bio-bond’ (post-operative adhesions) is also significantly reduced. 2. Because ultrasound is emitted beneath the dermis, there is less skin sagging after the procedure, and you can achieve additional skin elasticity and tightening effects.
# About 2 weeks after surgery, you may experience discomfort due to the formation of bio-bonds. In such cases, applying warm compresses and stretching will help them resolve faster. Please note that we also provide injections to help dissolve these bonds during the one-month follow-up!
Consultations and surgeries should be performed by a board-certified plastic surgeon!

Frequently Asked Questions
What is LipoSound facial liposuction?
LipoSound is a device that uses ultrasound to liquefy fat and then aspirate it. It effectively removes fat by making fat particles, which are like orange granules, smooth like juice, allowing for effective fat removal even with a small cannula.
What are the advantages of LipoSound liposuction?
LipoSound gently removes fat with less irritation, leading to faster recovery from bruising and swelling. Additionally, by applying ultrasound under the dermis, it minimizes skin sagging after the procedure and provides skin elasticity and tightening effects.
Which areas of fat can be suctioned with LipoSound?
This procedure is mainly applied to double chin and jawline liposuction. It can help improve a dull jawline, creating a smoother contour.
What is biobond after surgery and how should it be managed?
Biobond is an adhesion phenomenon that can occur approximately two weeks after surgery. At this time, warm compresses and stretching help it resolve quickly, and an injection to release it may be given at the one-month follow-up.
How long is the recovery period after LipoSound treatment?
LipoSound gently removes fat with less irritation, so recovery from bruising and swelling is faster than with general liposuction. The exact recovery period may vary from person to person.
