Achieve a Stunning V-Line with Corset Double Chin Muscle Tying!
Discover how combining LipoSound ultrasound liposuction with corset muscle tying can eliminate stubborn double chin fat and sagging for a sharp, defined jawline.
* Basic Information
# Female in her 20s
# Has tried everything from InMode to contouring injections to get rid of her double chin!
* Consultation
# Despite having a relatively slim face, she is concerned about a persistent double chin.
# The double chin area consists of various layers as shown in the following diagram. Let’s look at each component in more detail:
A. Fat
1. Surgery commonly referred to as LipoSound liposuction targets the subcutaneous fat layer.
2. However, as you can see in the diagram, fat also exists beneath the platysma muscle. This includes subplatysma fat, interplatysma fat, etc. Since this is deep fat located under the muscle, it can never be reduced through simple suction alone. Therefore, if the area still looks bulky or blunt after liposuction, it is likely due to this type of fat. This fat must be removed by making an incision in the muscle, retracting it, and removing the fat under direct vision!
B. Muscle
In some cases, the platysma muscle itself may be sagging. This can be congenital or a result of the natural aging process. In such cases, the line can only be made tight by cinching the muscle itself firmly, much like wearing a ‘corset’. This procedure is commonly known as ‘double chin muscle tying’.
Since this method has long been used in neck lift surgeries, you can trust its proven effectiveness and safety.
# Therefore, for patients like this individual who have a significant amount of fat but also a neck line that has become blunt with age, a combination of ‘liposuction and double chin muscle tying for sagging muscles’ is necessary to achieve a satisfying neck line.
# Using LipoSound allows us to finely break down subcutaneous fat (turning orange-like granules into juice-like liquid). This makes it possible to squeeze the fat out through small openings or remove it using only a small cannula, making the removal process highly effective.

* Plan
# Ultrasound Liposuction (LipoSound)
# Corset Double Chin Muscle Tying
* Post-operative Progress
# The blunt appearance has disappeared thanks to the double chin muscle tying and jawline/double chin liposuction! One of the most significant effects of the muscle tying procedure is that it creates a jawline that does not fold even when looking down! It’s almost like a ‘Galaxy Flip’ phone folding cleanly!
# ‘LipoSound’ is a device that uses ultrasound to emulsify fat. By liquefying fat particles—similar to turning orange pulp into juice—it offers several benefits:
1. It is much smoother; fat can be squeezed out like water without applying great force, and it can be suctioned through a small cannula. This results in less irritation, leading to faster recovery from bruising and swelling, and significantly less ‘bio-bond’ (post-operative adhesions). 2. Because ultrasound is emitted beneath the dermis, there is less skin sagging after the procedure, and additional skin elasticity and tightening effects can be achieved.
# You may experience some discomfort due to bio-bonds starting about two weeks after surgery. In such cases, applying warm compresses and stretching can 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
Why do I have a double chin?
A double chin can be caused by various factors, including subcutaneous fat, deep fat under the muscle, and sagging of the platysma muscle. Deep fat under the muscle is particularly difficult to reduce with liposuction, and a sagging platysma muscle can also make a double chin appear more prominent.
Can liposuction alone completely eliminate a double chin?
No, liposuction alone may have limitations. While subcutaneous fat can be removed with liposuction, a double chin caused by deep fat under the muscle or a sagging platysma muscle is difficult to resolve with liposuction alone. In such cases, additional procedures like muscle tightening may be necessary.
What are the effects of corset double chin muscle tightening surgery?
Corset double chin muscle tightening surgery tightens the sagging platysma muscle, creating a more defined jawline. One of the significant effects of this surgery is reducing the appearance of a double chin when bowing your head, allowing for a smoother jawline.
How is Liposound liposuction different from regular liposuction?
Liposound is a device that uses ultrasound to liquefy fat. It can remove fat more gently than regular liposuction, resulting in less irritation and faster recovery from bruising and swelling. Additionally, it can lead to less skin sagging after the procedure and improved skin elasticity.
Are there any precautions to take during the post-operative recovery period?
Yes, about two weeks after surgery, bio-bond (post-surgical adhesion) may occur, causing discomfort. Warm compresses and stretching can help at this time, and an injection to release it may be given at the one-month follow-up. It is best to consult with your medical team for detailed information.
