Buccal Fat Removal & Double Chin Liposuction

* Basic Information

# Female in her 20s

# Facial fat and jawline that remained despite consistent dieting

# Thin skin with low elasticity, prone to sagging

* Consultation

# You can think of buccal fat as the ‘visceral fat’ of the face.

# No matter how much you diet, it is often the last to go or doesn’t budge at all.

# This can be easily resolved by removing the buccal fat through a simple intraoral incision.

* Plan

# Buccal fat removal

# LipoSound + Double chin liposuction

* Post-operative Progress

# The bulky, heavy look has disappeared thanks to buccal fat removal and double chin liposuction! How does the revived jawline look? Not only has the round U-shape transformed into a sharp V-line, but the entire face also appears much smaller.

# As shown in the illustration, buccal fat exists over a wide area. We only remove the excess fat in the cheek area (the lower portion of the fat pad). Since an intraoral incision is used, there is the advantage of having no visible scars.

# ‘LipoSound’ is a device that uses ultrasound to emulsify fat. It liquefies fat particles—which are normally like orange pulp—into a juice-like consistency. This allows the fat to be suctioned out smoothly like water without requiring excessive force.

Consequently, there is much less irritation, leading to faster recovery from bruising and swelling. It also significantly reduces bio-bonding (post-operative adhesions)!

Always seek consultation and surgery from a board-certified plastic surgeon!
