Small Chin and Double Chin Case: Liposound Liposuction and Comprehensive Jawline Design
A woman in her 30s with a small, recessed chin and a blurry jawline complicated by double chin was treated by Dr. Yoo Young-moon at Vibe Plastic Surgery near Shinnonhyeon Station. Using a comprehensive approach—Liposound double chin liposuction, thread lifting, shrink lifting, and chin filler—the diffuse jawline was refined into a sharp V-line and facial proportions were significantly improved.
Hello, this is Vibe Plastic Surgery.
Today we're introducing the case of a woman in her 30s with a small chin that makes her jawline appear blurry, and who has layered double chin, causing her facial contours to lose definition.
🔎 Pre-Surgery Concerns
This patient had a lean overall body type, but
had a small chin that receded inward
a blurry, undefined jawline
and a double chin that made her face appear heavier
These three factors combined made her face appear larger than it actually was and gave a heavy impression.
In these cases, simply removing fat is not the solution.
👉 We must address "structure + fat + elasticity" together.
🔧 Surgical Approach (Comprehensive Strategy)
This case was approached not as simple liposuction, but as 'designing' the jawline.
1️⃣ Liposound Double Chin Liposuction
Using ultrasound-based Liposound, unnecessary double chin fat is precisely removed to achieve
Reduced tissue damage
Reduced bruising and swelling
Fast recovery
2️⃣ Double Chin Thread Lifting
Since removing fat alone can result in sagging skin, thread lifting is performed underneath the jawline to
👉 Define the jawline clearly
3️⃣ Shrink Lifting
Ultrasound lifting further improves remaining skin elasticity to achieve
👉 Enhanced lifting durability after fat removal
4️⃣ Chin Filler
Since a small chin won't show definition even after fat removal,
✔ Through chin filler
Chin length is enhanced
V-line is created
The jawline's starting point is defined
✨ Surgical Results
As you can see from the photos,
The blunt, spread-out jawline is now refined into a clean V-line
The double chin removal creates a clear distinction between the neck and chin
Chin volume enhancement improves overall facial proportions
👉 It's not just a matter of looking thinner,
👉 The facial structure itself appears refined.
💡 Recommended For:
✔ Those with a double chin and blurry jawline
✔ Those with a small or short chin that makes their face appear heavy
✔ Those who may not achieve satisfactory results with liposuction alone
✔ Those seeking a natural-looking facial contour refinement
📌 Conclusion
Double chin is not simply a fat issue;
👉 it's a complex problem involving facial structure + elasticity + fat.
For patients with small chins like this case, 'structure' is often more important than 'fat.'
👉 Simple liposuction alone may result in a somewhat disappointing outcome.
That's why I always consider fat removal + lifting + structural enhancement (filler) together.
This difference greatly determines the completeness of the results.

Frequently Asked Questions
What is Liposound Liposuction?
Liposound is a method that uses ultrasound to precisely remove double chin fat. According to the content, it is characterized by minimal tissue damage, reduced bruising and swelling, and fast recovery, making it useful for refining double chin lines.
Is Liposuction Alone Enough for a Small Chin?
No, it may not be sufficient. The article explains that when a chin is small or recessed, simply removing fat makes it difficult for the jawline to become defined. Therefore, chin filler must be used to enhance length and starting point, and lifting should be considered concurrently.
How is Skin Sagging Managed After Liposuction?
The article addresses this through concurrent double chin thread lifting and shrink lifting. Thread lifting tightens the area below the jawline to define the contour clearly, while shrink lifting further improves remaining skin elasticity to enhance durability.
What is the Role of Chin Filler?
Chin filler complements the length of a small chin and creates a V-line. According to the article, it defines the starting point of the jawline itself, helping to clearly refine a jawline that wouldn't be defined by fat removal alone.
Who is This Procedure Recommended For?
It is recommended for those with a double chin and blurry jawline, or those with a small or short chin that makes their face appear heavy. The article also notes it is suitable for those who may not achieve satisfactory results with liposuction alone or who desire a naturally refined facial contour.
When Can Surgery Results Be Seen?
The article shows results by comparing photos from before surgery and 2 months after. You can see the blunt, spread-out jawline refined into a V-line, a clearer distinction between neck and chin, and improved overall facial proportions through chin volume enhancement.
