Ultrasound Liposuction (Jawline, Double Chin) & Chin Fat Grafting

* Basic Information

# Female in her late teens

# Small/receding chin

# 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 liquid orange juice). Once liquefied, the fat can be squeezed out through tiny openings or removed using a very small cannula, making the extraction highly effective.

# Since the patient had a small chin, we also planned a chin fat grafting procedure.

* Surgical Plan

# Ultrasound Liposuction (Side Cheekbones, Double Chin, & Jawline)

# Chin Fat Grafting

* Post-operative Progress

# The blunt, heavy look is gone thanks to the jawline and double chin liposuction!

The Principle of LipoSound

# ‘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.

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. This results in less irritation, leading to faster recovery from bruising and swelling. Consequently, ‘Bio-bond’ (post-operative adhesions) is also significantly reduced. 2. Because the ultrasound is emitted beneath the dermis, it provides additional skin elasticity and lifting effects. (You may know that devices like Ultherapy, Shurink, and Doublo Gold all operate on ultrasound principles.)

# If the chin is too small, the receding chin must be corrected using fat grafting, fillers, or implants. When the chin is physically short, it is difficult to achieve a defined line through liposuction alone.

Consultations and surgeries should be performed by a board-certified plastic surgeon!
