LipoSound Liposuction (Jawline, Double Chin)
A case study of a female patient in her 20s who achieved a defined jawline using LipoSound ultrasonic liposuction and chin filler.
* Basic Information
# Female in her 20s
# Persistent double chin fat 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.’) This allows the fat to be removed so effectively that it can almost be squeezed out through a tiny opening, and fat can be extracted using only a small cannula.
# Since the patient had a significantly recessed chin, we also recommended chin filler.

* Plan
# Ultrasonic Liposuction (Jawline)
# Chin Tip Filler
* Post-Operative Progress
# The blunt, heavy look has disappeared thanks to the jawline and double chin liposuction!
The Principle 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 ~ 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-operative 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.
# Bio-bonds may form starting about two weeks after surgery, which might feel uncomfortable. During this time, warm compresses and stretching will help them resolve faster. Please note that we also provide ‘dissolving injections’ during the one-month follow-up if needed!
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 energy to liquefy fat cells, which are then gently suctioned out through a small cannula. It is primarily effective for removing fat from the jawline and double chin.
What are the advantages of LipoSound liposuction?
LipoSound liposuction liquefies and removes fat, resulting in less irritation during the procedure, which means less bruising and swelling, and faster recovery. Additionally, since the ultrasound works beneath the dermis, it can reduce skin sagging and is expected to provide elasticity and tightening effects.
How long is the recovery period after LipoSound liposuction?
LipoSound liposuction causes less irritation than traditional liposuction, leading to a faster recovery. Bio-bonds may form around 2 weeks after surgery, but these can be managed with warm compresses and stretching, and an injection treatment that resolves them at the one-month mark can also be helpful.
Can chin filler be received along with LipoSound liposuction?
Yes, it is possible. The text mentions that in cases of severe microgenia (receding chin), combining jawline liposuction with chin filler can enhance the overall facial contour improvement.
Is there any skin sagging after LipoSound treatment?
No, it can actually help improve skin elasticity. LipoSound removes fat by applying ultrasound beneath the dermis, which results in less skin sagging after the procedure, and additionally provides skin elasticity and tightening effects.
