Achieve a Slimmer Face with LipoSound Liposuction!
A case study of a 30-year-old woman who achieved a defined jawline using LipoSound ultrasound liposuction to remove stubborn double chin fat.
* Basic Information
# Female in her 30s
# Persistent double chin fat despite consistent dieting
* Consultation
# Using ultrasound allows us to break down subcutaneous fat into fine particles. (Think of it as turning orange pulp into liquid orange juice.) This makes the fat easy enough to squeeze out through small openings, allowing for highly effective removal using only a small cannula.
# If you are curious about how liposuction is performed at VIBE Plastic Surgery, please watch the video below first ^^
* Plan
# Ultrasound Liposuction (Double Chin & Jawline)
* Post-operative Progress
# The blunt, heavy look has disappeared thanks to jawline and double chin liposuction!
The Principles of LipoSound
# ‘LipoSound’ is a device that uses ultrasound to emulsify fat. It liquefies fat particles, which are typically like orange pulp, into a juice-like state.
1. Much smoother ~ Since the fat can be squeezed out like water without applying significant force, it can be suctioned using only a small cannula. This results in much less irritation, leading to faster recovery from bruising and swelling, and significantly less ‘bio-bond’ (post-surgical adhesions).
2. Because the ultrasound is emitted directly beneath the dermis, there is less skin sagging after the procedure, and you can achieve additional skin elasticity and tightening effects.
# Bio-bonds may form starting about two weeks after surgery, which might feel uncomfortable. In such cases, warm compresses and stretching will help them resolve faster. Please note that we also provide softening injections during the one-month follow-up if needed!
Consultations and surgeries should be performed by a board-certified plastic surgeon!

Frequently Asked Questions
What is the principle behind Liposound liposuction?
Liposound is a device that uses ultrasound to liquefy fat. It effectively liquefies fat particles, which are like orange granules, into a smooth, juice-like consistency, allowing for effective fat removal even with a small cannula.
What are the advantages of Liposound liposuction?
Liposound liposuction causes less irritation, leading to faster recovery from bruising and swelling. Additionally, because the ultrasound is applied beneath the dermis, there is less skin sagging after the procedure, and you can also achieve additional skin elasticity and tightening effects.
How long is the recovery period after a Liposound procedure?
Recovery time varies by individual, but Liposound causes less irritation, so bruising and swelling recover relatively quickly. Biobond may form about two weeks after surgery, but it can be managed with warm compresses and stretching.
How should I manage biobond after surgery?
Biobond may form about two weeks after surgery and can cause discomfort. At this time, applying warm compresses and stretching helps it resolve faster, and we may administer an injection to help it dissipate at the one-month follow-up.
Which areas can be improved with Liposound liposuction?
Liposound liposuction is primarily effective for improving the double chin and jawline. This can help eliminate a dull appearance and create a more slender facial contour.
Is there any skin sagging after the Liposound procedure?
No, Liposound causes less skin sagging after the procedure because the ultrasound is applied beneath the dermis. You can also achieve additional skin elasticity and tightening effects, reducing concerns about sagging.
