The Effectiveness of LipoSound Liposuction
Discover how LipoSound ultrasound liposuction effectively removes stubborn double chin fat with minimal swelling and enhanced skin tightening.
* Basic Information
# Female in her 20s
# Stubborn double chin fat that persists despite consistent dieting
* Consultation
# By using ultrasound, we can break down subcutaneous fat into fine particles. (Think of it as turning orange pulp into liquid orange juice.) This allows the fat to be removed so easily it could almost be squeezed out, and because it can be extracted using only a very small cannula, the removal is highly effective.

The Principles of LipoSound
# ‘LipoSound’ can be understood as equipment that uses ultrasound to emulsify fat. Because it liquefies fat particles—similar to turning orange pulp into juice—it offers the following benefits:
1. Much smoother process – Fat can be extracted like water without applying significant force, and it can be suctioned through a very small cannula. Consequently, there is much less irritation, leading to faster recovery from bruising and swelling. It also significantly reduces ‘bio-bond’ (post-operative adhesions).
2. Since ultrasound is emitted beneath the dermis, there is less skin sagging after the procedure, and you can achieve additional skin elasticity and tightening effects.
# About two weeks after surgery, you may experience discomfort due to the formation of bio-bonds. In such cases, applying warm compresses and stretching will help them resolve faster. Please note that we also provide softening 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
How does Liposound liposuction remove fat?
Liposound uses ultrasound to liquefy fat particles, turning them from orange segments into juice-like consistency. This emulsified fat can then be gently suctioned out with a small cannula, allowing for effective fat removal.
How long is the recovery period after Liposound liposuction?
Liposound gently suctions fat with minimal irritation, so recovery from bruising and swelling is relatively fast. Recovery may be quicker than with traditional liposuction.
Can skin sagging occur after Liposound liposuction?
No, Liposound uses ultrasound applied beneath the dermis, which minimizes skin sagging after the procedure. It is even said to provide additional skin elasticity and tightening effects.
How should I manage bio-bonds that occur after surgery?
Bio-bonds may form and cause discomfort about two weeks after surgery. At this time, warm compresses and stretching can be helpful, and a dissolving injection may be prescribed at the one-month follow-up.
Which areas are primarily treated with Liposound liposuction?
This procedure is primarily applied to remove fat from the double chin and jawline. It is effective in improving a dull appearance and making the jawline more defined.
