Buccal Fat Removal & Double Chin Liposuction

* Basic Information

• Female in her 20s
• Facial fat and jawline that remained despite consistent dieting

* 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 disappear at all.
• This can be easily resolved by removing the buccal fat through a simple intraoral incision.
• LipoSound uses ultrasound to emulsify fat, turning fat particles—which are like orange pulps—into a liquid state like juice. This allows the fat to be suctioned out as smoothly as water without applying excessive force.

* Procedure Plan

• Buccal Fat Removal
• LipoSound + Double Chin Liposuction

* Post-operative Progress

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

• ‘Buccal fat’ exists across a wide area as shown in the illustration above. We only remove the excess portion located in the cheek area (the lower part of the fat pad). A major advantage is that it leaves no visible scars since the incision is made inside the mouth.
• ‘LipoSound’ is a device that uses ultrasound to emulsify fat. By liquefying fat particles into a juice-like consistency, the fat is suctioned out smoothly like water without the need for significant force.

Consequently, there is much less irritation, leading to faster recovery from bruising and swelling. Bio-bond (post-operative adhesions) is also significantly reduced!

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

Wishing you health and beauty today :)
