Ultrasound Liposuction (Jawline & Double Chin)

* Basic Information

# Female in her 20s

# Persistent facial fat and undefined jawline despite consistent dieting

* Consultation

# Using ultrasound allows us to break down subcutaneous fat into fine particles. (Think of it as turning ‘orange pulp’ into ‘orange juice.’) This makes it possible to extract fat through tiny openings using only a small cannula, ensuring highly effective removal.

* Plan

# Ultrasound Liposuction (Double Chin & Jawline)

# Chin Tip Botox & Filler

* Post-operative Progress

# The blunt, heavy feeling disappeared after the jawline and double chin liposuction! How does the revived jawline look? It has transformed from a round U-shape into a very sharp V-line, making the entire face appear smaller, right?

# Since the patient had a very small chin and a habit of clenching the chin tip tightly, we also performed chin tip Botox and filler treatments.

# ‘LipoSound’ can be thought of as a device that uses ultrasound to emulsify fat. It liquefies fat particles—which are usually 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, you can gain additional skin elasticity and lifting effects. (You may know that devices like Ultherapy, Shurink, and Doublo Gold all operate on ultrasound principles, right?)

Always consult a board-certified plastic surgeon for consultations and surgery!

Frequently Asked Questions

How does ultrasonic liposuction remove fat?

Ultrasonic liposuction uses ultrasound to break down and liquefy subcutaneous fat for removal. It transforms fat particles, which are like orange segments, into a smooth, juice-like consistency, allowing for effective suction even with a small cannula.

What are the advantages of ultrasonic liposuction?

Ultrasonic liposuction gently removes liquefied fat, resulting in less irritation during the procedure and faster recovery from bruising and swelling. Additionally, there is less adhesion (bio-bond) after surgery, and by irradiating ultrasound beneath the dermis, it can also provide skin elasticity and lifting effects.

How long is the recovery period after ultrasonic liposuction?

Ultrasonic liposuction involves gently aspirating liquefied fat, which causes less irritation than traditional liposuction, leading to a faster recovery. It is said that returning to daily life is relatively easy due to less bruising and swelling.

Does jawline liposuction also improve skin elasticity?

Yes, you can expect skin elasticity improvement. It is said that additional skin elasticity and lifting effects can be obtained by irradiating ultrasound beneath the dermis. This is similar to ultrasound-based devices like Ulthera and Shurink.

Are there other procedures that help improve the jawline besides ultrasonic liposuction?

Yes, for jawline improvement, you can combine ultrasonic liposuction with chin Botox and filler treatments. This can be particularly effective if you have a small chin or a habit of clenching your chin tightly.
