Crushing Facial Fat! (Liposound Liposuction & Thread Lifting)
A case study of a woman in her 30s who achieved a sharp jawline using Liposound ultrasonic liposuction and thread lifting to remove stubborn double chin fat.
* Basic Information
# Female in her 30s
# Stubborn double chin fat that persists despite consistent dieting
* Consultation
# By using ultrasound, subcutaneous fat can be finely broken down. (Think of it as turning orange pulp into liquid orange juice.) This allows the fat to be extracted easily 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
# Liposound Ultrasonic Liposuction
# Double Chin Thread Lifting
* Post-operative Progress
# The heavy, blunt look is gone 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—similar to orange pulp—into a juice-like state.
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-bonds (post-surgical adhesions) are also significantly reduced. 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.
# About two weeks after surgery, bio-bonds may form, which can feel uncomfortable. 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!
# If you are worried about sagging after liposuction, I highly recommend combining it with thread lifting! It allows for a much sharper and more defined jawline.
Consultations and surgeries should be performed by a board-certified plastic surgeon!

Frequently Asked Questions
What is LipoSound liposuction?
LipoSound is a device that uses ultrasound to emulsify fat. It is a procedure that helps to liquefy fat particles, which are like orange granules, into a juice-like consistency, allowing for smooth aspiration even with a small cannula.
What are the advantages of LipoSound treatment?
LipoSound treatment allows for fat aspiration without applying much force, as it liquefies the fat, resulting in less irritation and faster recovery from bruising and swelling. Additionally, by applying ultrasound beneath the dermis, it minimizes skin sagging after the procedure and can improve skin elasticity and tightening.
Is it good to combine thread lifting after liposuction?
Yes, if you are concerned about sagging after liposuction, it is recommended to combine it with thread lifting. Thread lifting can help further sharpen the jawline improved by liposuction and prevent skin sagging.
How should I manage biobond after surgery?
Biobond may form and cause discomfort about two weeks after surgery. At this time, warm compresses and stretching can help it resolve faster, and we may administer an injection to help it resolve at the one-month follow-up.
In what cases is LipoSound liposuction suitable?
LipoSound liposuction is suitable for those who have consistently dieted but are concerned about stubborn fat in specific areas, such as a double chin. It effectively removes fat with ultrasound, helping to improve a dull appearance.
