Achieve a Sleek Jawline with Corset Double Chin Muscle Tying!

* Basic Information

# Female in her 30s

# Persistent double chin fat despite consistent dieting

# Stressed by a blunt jawline from the side view, which makes the neck look short and creates a ‘turtle neck’ appearance.

* Consultation

# The double chin area is composed of various layers as shown in the following diagram. Let’s look at each component in more detail:

A. Fat

1. Surgery commonly referred to as LipoSound liposuction targets the subcutaneous fat layer.

2. However, as you can see in the diagram, fat also exists beneath the platysma muscle. This includes subplatysma fat, interplatysma fat, etc. Since this is deep fat located under the muscle, it can never be reduced through liposuction alone. Therefore, cases where the area still looks bulging or blunt after liposuction are often due to this type of fat. This fat must be removed by making an incision in the muscle and removing it under direct vision!

B. Muscle

In some cases, the platysma muscle itself is sagging. This can be congenital or a result of the natural aging process. In such instances, the line can only be made tight by tightening the muscle itself as if wearing a ‘corset’! This procedure is commonly known as ‘double chin muscle tying’.

Since this method has long been used in neck lifts, you can trust its proven effectiveness and safety.

# Therefore, for patients like this individual who have significant fat but also a neck line that has become blunt with age, a combination of ‘liposuction and double chin muscle tying for sagging muscles’ is necessary to achieve a satisfying neck line.

# Using LipoSound, subcutaneous fat can be finely broken down (turning orange-like granules into juice-like liquid). This allows the fat to be squeezed out through small holes or removed using only a small cannula, making the removal process extremely effective.

* Plan

# Ultrasonic Liposuction (LipoSound)

# Double Chin Muscle Tying (Neck Lifting)

* Post-operative Progress

# Through double chin muscle tying and jawline/double chin liposuction, the blunt appearance has disappeared! One of the most important effects of the muscle tying procedure is that it creates a jawline that doesn’t fold even when looking down! It’s almost like how a Galaxy Flip folds cleanly!

# ‘LipoSound’ can be thought of as equipment that uses ultrasound to emulsify fat. Because it liquefies fat particles—turning them from orange-like granules into juice:

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-operative adhesions).
2. Since the ultrasound is emitted beneath the dermis, there is less skin sagging after the procedure, and additional skin elasticity and tightening effects can be achieved.

# You may experience some discomfort due to bio-bonds starting about two weeks after surgery. In such cases, applying warm compresses and stretching will help them resolve faster. Please note that we also provide injections to help dissolve them during the one-month follow-up!

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