Facial Liposuction

Facial liposuction is a procedure that removes excess fat accumulated in the face, achieving a sharp and defined facial contour.
Areas such as the cheeks and under the chin are targeted, with individual differences in fat distribution, placement, and volume. Therefore, the procedure is tailored to the unique features of each individual's face.

By balancing facial proportions and creating a slimmer appearance, facial liposuction offers the potential for a smaller, rejuvenated look.

Recommended for the following people

  • Those with a sagging facial contour

  • Those who are slim but told they have a round face

  • Those concerned about a double chin

  • Those who desire a more streamlined contour

  • Those who want to achieve a sharper impression

Reasons to Choose LIVELY CLINIC

POINT1

Smooth Results with the Custom-Made Cannula

Cannulas (suction tubes) typically used for fat suction and injection are usually straight in shape. While procedures can be performed with regular cannulas, the results have limitations. To address this, LIVELY CLINIC offers custom-made cannulas.
By using the custom cannula, we can provide the following benefits to our patients.

1
Smoother Results Compared to Traditional Cannulas

The human body is composed of many curves. Traditional cannulas are straight, so even if suction and injection are performed following these curves, the results have limitations.
The custom-made cannula comes in various curved and bent shapes, allowing for suction and injection that match the body's contours. It can be used in areas where traditional cannulas were not effective and allows for a wider suction range.
For those concerned about visible scars around the face, rest assured that the procedure can be performed with minimal scarring.

2
Minimized Downtime Effects

The custom-made cannula has a smaller diameter and offers greater flexibility during the procedure. This minimizes the impact on the body, allowing for a reduced downtime compared to traditional cannulas.
For those concerned about downtime, LIVELY CLINIC's fat suction with the custom cannula ensures a smoother recovery. Feel free to consult with us if you're interested.

POINT2

Precise Treatment Marking and Expertise

Marking is done to determine the areas and range to approach during the procedure. For a successful treatment, it is crucial to make precise judgments and assessments of the treatment areas before marking them. If the assessment is inadequate, it can lead to significant mistakes.
Common mistakes in procedures include facial line indents, unevenness, and inconsistent fat removal, all of which occur when proper marking is not done.
At LIVELY CLINIC, we use a unique approach called "4D Marking Simulation," which differs from traditional marking methods.
Traditional marking simply outlines areas to be suctioned. In contrast, 4D marking involves detailed instructions on the suction areas, amount, fat layers to be removed, and areas to avoid. Additionally, while traditional marking is typically done only once before the procedure, 4D marking allows us to simulate and confirm the procedure during the planning phase.
This enables detailed image sharing between the patient and the doctor, ensuring a deeper understanding of the suction areas, thus reducing the chances of mistakes and misunderstandings.
For patients concerned about failure or post-operative discrepancies, LIVELY CLINIC provides peace of mind.

POINT3

Consideration for Minimizing the Visibility of Postoperative Scars

The custom-made cannula allows for a wider range of fat suction, enabling suction from multiple areas with minimal scars. Compared to traditional cannulas with limited treatment areas, this method results in fewer visible scars. Additionally, a skin port is used at every insertion point to protect the skin, and the custom cannula itself has a narrow diameter of 3.0mm, making the incisions less noticeable. For those concerned about visible scars after the procedure, LIVELY CLINIC takes special care to perform the treatment in less conspicuous areas, ensuring peace of mind during the procedure.

Facial Liposuction Procedure
(Jaw, Lower Cheeks, Upper Cheeks)

The procedure involves suctioning fat from the area below the mouth and along the sides of the cheeks. For the chin, fat is suctioned from the area that can be pinched when looking downward. A small incision of a few millimeters is made under the chin, and an ultra-thin suction tube is inserted to remove the fat.

Small cuts of a few millimeters are made under the chin and behind the ears on both sides. However, these areas are usually not visible to others, so they are hardly noticeable and gradually fade over time.

Liposuction of the face not only enhances the effects of a smaller face but also helps make the neck appear longer.

Procedure Proposal to Prevent Hollow Cheeks

When performing cheek liposuction, removing too much fat can cause the muscles and skin to adhere together, which may result in tightening or hollowing of the cheeks.

The cheeks have both "negative zones," where fat can be safely removed, and "positive zones," where removing fat could lead to undesirable results. Knowledge of anatomy is essential for making this determination. Additionally, to achieve the ideal outcome, it is crucial to accurately share the patient's vision during the consultation.

At LIVELY CLINIC, doctors with expert knowledge of anatomy handle both the consultation and the procedure, ensuring that the treatment is tailored to each patient. This approach helps prevent hollow cheeks and misalignment of post-operative results.

FAQ

Q

How much fat is removed during facial liposuction?

A

The amount of fat removed varies depending on the individual, and the doctor will determine the appropriate amount of fat to be removed for each patient. We ensure thorough consultation to avoid removing too much or leaving fat behind.

Q

Will there be rebound after facial liposuction?

A

Since fat cells are removed, the risk of rebound is low. However, significant weight gain can affect the size of the face, so it is important to be cautious.

Q

Can I eat after facial liposuction?

A

Yes, you can eat. However, until the anesthesia wears off, it might be difficult to move your mouth. It is recommended to consume small, soft foods that are easy to swallow.
