Achieving a Defined Look with Ptosis Revision and Facial Liposuction!

* Basic Information

# Female in her 30s

# Previously underwent natural adhesion double eyelid surgery, but eyes look sleepy and are asymmetrical.

# Requirements: Left-right eye asymmetry is the biggest stressor. I also want to improve the feeling that my eyes are not opening fully.

# Concerned about an undefined double chin.

* Consultation

# Decided to improve the sleepy appearance and asymmetry.

# Planned to create natural lines that suit the face without being excessive.

# Using ultrasound, subcutaneous fat can be broken down into fine particles. (Think of it as turning orange pulp into orange juice.) This allows the fat to be extracted through a tiny hole or removed using only a small cannula, making the removal highly effective.

* Plan

# Non-incisional Ptosis Revision (Reoperation)

# LipoSound Liposuction (Double chin, jawline)

* Post-operative Progress

# A natural and clear impression has been achieved.

# I thought there might be limits to the correction because the asymmetry was severe, but it was a satisfying case where the correction turned out better than expected.

# ‘LipoSound’ can be thought of as equipment that uses ultrasound to emulsify fat. Because it liquefies fat particles—like 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 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. Since ultrasound is emitted beneath the dermis, there is less skin sagging after the procedure, and additional skin elasticity and tightening effects can be achieved.

# About 2 weeks after surgery, bio-bonds may form and cause discomfort. In such cases, applying warm compresses and stretching will help them resolve faster. Please note that we also provide injections to help dissolve them during the one-month follow-up!

Frequently Asked Questions

In what cases should I consider revision ptosis correction surgery?

Yes, you can consider it if your eyes still look sleepy or have severe left-right asymmetry despite having undergone double eyelid surgery previously. It is effective when you want to improve the feeling of your eyes not opening fully and create a natural line.

What is the difference between Liposound liposuction and general liposuction?

Liposound is a device that uses ultrasound to liquefy subcutaneous fat. It makes fat soft like water, allowing for effective removal even with a small cannula, and has the advantage of faster recovery with less bruising and swelling due to minimal irritation.

Is there no skin sagging after Liposound liposuction?

No, on the contrary, there is less skin sagging, and you can additionally achieve skin elasticity and tightening effects. These positive effects can be expected because ultrasound is applied from under the dermis.

How long is the recovery period after facial liposuction?

Usually, about 2 weeks after surgery, bio-bonds may form, causing discomfort. Warm compresses and stretching can help at this time, and injections can aid recovery after one month.

To what extent can eye asymmetry be corrected?

Yes, in the case of the person in the main text, despite severe left-right asymmetry, the correction was better than expected, resulting in a satisfactory outcome. Eye asymmetry can be improved through non-incisional ptosis correction revision surgery.
