Hello, this is Vibe Plastic Surgery :)
☀️Now that the weather is warming up
photos are becoming more frequent📸
Many people feel self-conscious about
their puffy cheeks and undefined jawline 😓
"Why does facial fat stay the same even when I diet?"
I'm sure many of you have thought this while looking in the mirror
More and more people are visiting Vibe Plastic Surgery to learn about
facial fat extraction
At Vibe Plastic Surgery at Nonhyeon Station,
we use LipoSound technology to
perform precise facial fat extraction
If you've been curious about facial fat extraction,
we'll explain everything in this post!😊📝
🩹Minimizing Scarring with LipoSound: Key Points for Facial Fat Extraction

LipoSound uses powerful 🔊ultrasound energy to
break down fat into fine particles and then extract it
The areas commonly mentioned for facial fat concerns are:
double chin, cheek fat, nasolabial fold fat, and deep cheek fat
These delicate areas can all be treated
Traditional liposuction often causes concerns about
bruising, swelling, and scarring
At Vibe Plastic Surgery, we address these concerns by
using LipoSound technology for
precise facial fat extraction

The key to LipoSound is🪡 the thin cannula
(*Cannula = needle that emulsifies and extracts fat)
At approximately 0.9mm~1.2mm thickness,
it helps minimize scarring
After the procedure, the sites where the needle was inserted
require no incisions or sutures, so over time
they gradually fade and recover naturally
💉Facial Fat Extraction: What About Anesthesia?
Facial fat extraction doesn't require
major incisions or sutures, so anesthesia is also
administered only to the extraction areas using local anesthesia
At Nonhyeon Station Plastic Surgery, we
carefully apply anesthesia only where needed
to minimize discomfort
Once local anesthesia is fully administered,
you feel almost no pain,
and our medical staff continuously monitors your
condition throughout the procedure, so even those
very concerned about pain can receive it relatively comfortably
If you've hesitated about facial fat extraction due to
concerns about general anesthesia, this local anesthesia
approach is worth considering : )
✨When is Facial Fat Extraction Needed?

Facial fat extraction at Vibe Plastic Surgery is
not just about removing excess fat;
✔️it's about creating a more defined facial contour and
jawline, making it ideal for those seeking greater definition
If your cheeks or chin appear full,
making your face look larger than it is,
or if your side profile is unclear and your contours appear
soft and blurred, this procedure may be right for you
Additionally, if your body is slim but
your face appears full, or if you notice a double chin even
without lowering your head, consultation is recommended to
determine if you're a good candidate.
💫Facial Fat Extraction: What's the Recovery Time?
Facial fat extraction at Vibe Plastic Surgery is
a one-day procedure, which is a major advantage✨
You can go home on the same day after the procedure,
and you can return to daily activities without much burden
While individual experiences vary, as the anesthesia wears off
on the day of the procedure, you may experience slight throat
soreness or a sensation of something in your throat when swallowing
You may also experience mild swelling or tightness,
but
these symptoms are usually temporary,
and by the next day, you can usually return to normal activities
Most people experience significant improvement. If you were
concerned about severe bruising or prolonged recovery,
this information may be reassuring👍
⭐Enhancing Facial Fat Extraction Results: Thread Lifting!
When a double chin is pronounced or you have a weak chin,
removing fat alone won't create a
clearly defined jawline in many cases
Along with fat removal,
we need to define the jawline
through lifting
For patients with weak chins especially, removing fat
while simultaneously lifting to create jawline definition is
key. If you remove fat alone,
loose skin or an unclear jawline may result,
and you may not achieve the slimming effect you expected
Therefore, lifting sagging tissue upward to
create a clear jawline and prevent double chin recurrence,
thread lifting is performed alongside fat extraction
for best results :)
💜Vibe Plastic Surgery: Facial Fat Extraction's Unique Approach


At Vibe Plastic Surgery at Nonhyeon Station,
rather than simply using mechanical force to remove fat,
we use ultrasound technology to
break down fat before extraction
There are two main reasons we use ultrasound:
✔️To break down fat into fine particles
Using ultrasound energy to finely
break down fatty tissue into a smooth emulsified state allows
extraction through even smaller cannulas
This minimizes surrounding tissue damage and
reduces concerns about swelling and bruising
✔️Fat Emulsification and Skin Tightening
Ultrasound energy is used in skin elasticity procedures
as well, which means
it can provide skin tightening alongside
the fat emulsification process
While refining facial fat, you also get
a smoother facial contour as a result
"The key is not removing a lot, but
creating beautiful results"
Facial fat extraction is not simply about
removing large amounts of fat.
At Vibe Plastic Surgery, we consider each patient's
facial shape and proportions, carefully refining only what's
needed while maintaining natural-looking,
balanced results 😊

Frequently Asked Questions
Which areas can facial fat extraction be performed on?
It can be performed on delicate areas such as double chin, cheek fat, nasolabial fold fat, and deep cheek fat. At Vibe Plastic Surgery, we use LipoSound ultrasound equipment to precisely break down and extract fat from these areas.
How is anesthesia administered for facial fat extraction?
Local anesthesia is used. Since the procedure doesn't require major incisions or sutures, we apply anesthesia precisely to only the extraction areas. Once fully anesthetized, you feel almost no pain, and our medical staff continuously monitors your condition throughout the procedure.
Will there be scarring from facial fat extraction?
We use ultra-thin 0.9mm~1.2mm cannulas to minimize scarring. Since the insertion sites require no incisions or sutures, they gradually fade naturally over time.
What is the recovery time for facial fat extraction?
Most people can return to normal daily activities by the next day. As a one-day procedure, you can go home the same day. You may experience slight throat soreness, a sensation of something in your throat, mild swelling, and tightness on the day of the procedure, but these are typically temporary.
Is the procedure effective for severe weak chin or double chin?
Combining fat extraction with thread lifting is beneficial. When you have a weak chin or pronounced double chin, removing fat alone may result in loose skin or a blurry jawline, so lifting sagging tissue upward to create clear jawline definition is essential.
How is LipoSound different from traditional liposuction?
It uses ultrasound energy to finely break down fat before extraction. Extracting smoothly emulsified fat through small cannulas minimizes surrounding tissue damage and reduces concerns about swelling and bruising. Due to the nature of ultrasound, it can also provide skin tightening benefits.
