Ultrasound Facial Liposuction (Liposound)
A case study of a female patient in her 20s who achieved a defined jawline through Liposound ultrasound liposuction for stubborn double chin fat.
* 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 ‘orange juice’.) This allows the fat to be extracted through tiny openings, and since it can be removed using only a small cannula, the procedure is highly effective.

* Plan
# Ultrasound Liposuction (Double Chin & Jawline)
* Post-operative Progress
# The heavy, blunt appearance has vanished thanks to the jawline and double chin liposuction!
The Principles of Liposound
# ‘Liposound’ is a device that uses ultrasound to emulsify fat. Because it liquefies fat particles—turning them from something like orange pulp into juice—it offers several benefits:
1. It is much smoother. Fat can be squeezed out 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 results in significantly less ‘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.
Consultations and surgeries should be performed by a board-certified plastic surgeon!
VIBE comes from rich experience.

Complications and side effects such as bleeding, inflammation, infection, and asymmetry may occur after surgery. These can vary by individual, and caution is required.
Frequently Asked Questions
What kind of procedure is Liposound ultrasonic liposuction?
Liposound is a device that uses ultrasound to liquefy fat. It is a procedure that helps effectively aspirate fat with a small cannula by making fat particles, which are like orange granules, smooth like juice.
What are the advantages of the Liposound procedure?
Liposound gently removes liquefied fat, resulting in less irritation during the procedure. Therefore, recovery from bruising and swelling is faster, and since ultrasound is applied under the dermis, there is less skin sagging, and elasticity and tightening effects can also be obtained.
Which areas are mainly treated?
This text mainly introduces cases where Liposound is used for double chin and jawline liposuction. It is used to effectively remove fat from the double chin and jawline, which can give a dull appearance.
Is there any skin sagging after the Liposound procedure?
No, on the contrary, you can expect skin elasticity effects. Liposound emits ultrasound under the dermis, so there is less skin sagging after the procedure, and additional skin elasticity and tightening effects can be obtained.
What should I be aware of during the procedure?
As with all surgeries, complications and side effects such as bleeding, inflammation, infection, and asymmetry can occur. Since there may be individual differences, sufficient consultation and caution with a plastic surgeon are necessary.
