Buccal Fat Removal & Ultrasound Liposuction (Jawline, Double Chin, Cheeks)
A case study of a woman in her 20s who achieved a defined jawline and slimmer face through buccal fat removal and LipoSound ultrasound liposuction.

* Basic Information
# Female in her 20s
# Persistent double chin fat despite continuous 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 squeezed out through tiny openings or removed using a very small cannula, making the extraction extremely effective.
# You can think of buccal fat as the ‘visceral fat’ of the face. Since it is often the last to disappear no matter how much weight you lose, removing it surgically is the most convenient and efficient method. In particular, removing buccal fat can provide a more dramatic effect for volume in the cheek area.

Principles of LipoSound
# ‘LipoSound’ is a device that uses ultrasound to emulsify fat. Because it liquefies fat particles—like turning orange pulp into juice—it offers several benefits:
1. It is much smoother – fat can be squeezed out like water without applying great force, and it can be suctioned using only a small cannula. Consequently, there is much less irritation, leading to faster recovery from bruising and swelling, and significantly less ‘bio-bond’ (post-surgical adhesions).
2. Since ultrasound is emitted beneath the dermis, there is less skin sagging after the procedure, and additional skin elasticity and tightening effects can be achieved.
# Buccal Fat Removal

Before the surgery, I was so stressed by my double chin and round face. I was even afraid to take off my mask when eating, so I decided I had to get fat removal before starting university. I saved up and had facial liposuction and buccal fat removal at VIBE Plastic Surgery. I am truly satisfied. It still feels like a dream that this is my jawline. I think the effect was doubled because I also worked hard on my diet. It was a bit painful during the surgery, maybe because so much fat was removed... but the results are as good as the pain was worth. I’m so glad I did it before entering college. I don’t need to hide my chin with a mask anymore. Even if I try to make a double chin, it doesn’t happen. Also, everyone at the clinic was so kind. I have absolutely no regrets or disappointments. Thank you so, so much, Dr. Yoo Young-moon! – A real review from our patient.
