LipoSound Liposuction (Double Chin & Jawline)
A case study of a woman in her 20s who achieved a defined jawline using LipoSound ultrasonic liposuction to remove stubborn facial fat.
* Basic Information
# Female in her 20s
# Stubborn facial fat and jawline that did not improve despite consistent dieting
* Consultation
# By using ultrasound, subcutaneous fat can be broken down into fine particles. (Think of it as turning ‘orange pulp’ into ‘orange juice’.) Once liquefied, the fat can be expressed through small openings or removed using a very fine cannula, allowing for highly effective extraction.

# Ultrasonic Liposuction (Double Chin & Jawline)
* Post-operative Progress
# The heavy, blunt appearance has disappeared thanks to jawline and double chin liposuction!
The Principle of LipoSound
# ‘LipoSound’ is a device that uses ultrasound to emulsify fat. Because it liquefies fat particles—similar to turning orange pulp into juice—it offers several benefits:
1. It is much smoother. Fat can be expressed like water without applying significant force, and it can be suctioned using only a small cannula. Consequently, there is less irritation, leading to faster recovery from bruising and swelling. This also significantly reduces ‘bio-bonds’ (post-operative adhesions). 2. Since ultrasound is emitted beneath the dermis, it provides additional skin elasticity and lifting effects. (As you may know, devices like Ulthera, Shurink, and Doublo Gold all operate on ultrasonic principles.)
Consultations and surgeries should be performed by a board-certified plastic surgeon!

Complications and side effects such as bleeding, inflammation, infection, and asymmetry may occur after surgery depending on the individual, and caution is required.
Frequently Asked Questions
What is LipoSound liposuction?
LipoSound liposuction is a procedure that uses ultrasound to liquefy fat before suctioning it out. It effectively removes fat by making orange-grain-like fat particles smooth like juice, allowing for effective fat removal even with a small cannula.
What are the advantages of LipoSound liposuction?
LipoSound liposuction has the advantage of faster recovery from bruising and swelling due to less irritation. Additionally, the ultrasound energy acts beneath the dermis, allowing for additional skin elasticity and lifting effects.
Can it be applied to areas other than the double chin and jawline?
This post covers cases of double chin and jawline liposuction. Since LipoSound liposuction uses an ultrasound-based fat emulsification method, it is best to consult with a plastic surgeon to confirm the treatable areas.
How long is the recovery period after the procedure?
LipoSound liposuction is described as having a faster recovery from bruising and swelling compared to general liposuction due to less irritation. The exact recovery period varies by individual, so consultation with a specialist is necessary.
Does LipoSound treatment also improve skin elasticity?
Yes, LipoSound is said to provide additional skin elasticity and lifting effects because it directs ultrasound waves beneath the dermis. You can expect similar effects to ultrasound-based devices like Ulthera and Shurink.
Which medical professional should perform the procedure?
It is important to receive consultation and surgery from a board-certified plastic surgeon. We recommend receiving treatment from a specialist with extensive experience, and Dr. Yoo Young-moon, the representative director of Vibe Plastic Surgery, performs the procedure.
