Hello, I’m Lee Seong-jun, the chief director of Liting Plastic Surgery Seoul Branch.
As we age, our faces undergo various signs of aging, including wrinkles.
One of the most common concerns is the double chin.
When viewed from the front or side, it can make you look heavier or make your face appear larger.
It can also make you look older and give a lazy or stuffy impression, which can negatively affect your appearance.
Some people try dieting or facial massage to improve sagging under the jaw, but many find that fat in the jaw area is hard to lose.
So today, let’s look at a method for lifting the jawline and neck at the same time.

Managing under-chin fat is essential for creating a sharper impression.
Even if your facial structure is slim, having a lot of fat under the chin or sagging in that area can give the impression of a bulky face and can even turn into a double chin with folded skin.
The chin area is also not easy to reduce in the short term, even with exercise.
In addition, if only facial aging is improved while neck wrinkles remain, the result can look unnatural.
Therefore, if you want to directly reduce under-chin fat and expect a noticeable change in your facial line, it is necessary to improve the lower face and neck wrinkles at the same time.

Between the subcutaneous fat layer and the muscle layer is the fibromuscular fascia layer, the SMAS layer.
It is a major cause of wrinkles and aging, and if you simply pull without detaching the connective tissue between the skin, the lifting effect will diminish because of the force trying to return it to its original position.
That is why, to improve sagging under the jaw, it is important to pull not only the thin skin layer but also the muscle layer and this fascial layer, the SMAS layer, together.
In addition, to achieve a more natural and balanced jaw-to-neck line, it is necessary to improve not only the double chin but also neck wrinkles and sagging cheek fat.
For this, our clinic recommends VN lifting.

Liting’s VN lifting!
VN lifting is a method suitable for age groups concerned about sagging under the jaw, and it can provide an effect similar to contouring surgery without shaving bone.
It can improve the lower face line and neck wrinkles at the same time, and its advantages include a long-lasting result and a high lifting effect through SMAS layer dissection.
It is recommended for people who have more fat under the chin than their body weight would suggest, those who want strong lifting for neck wrinkles, and those who have not seen a change in facial line even after various procedures.

An incision is made in a VN shape along the front and back areas below the ears and the hairline at the back of the neck → the SMAS layer in the area to be improved is dissected and pulled upward → the skin in the area to be improved is also pulled upward → the loosened skin is removed and the procedure is finished
What is the VN lifting procedure like?
First, an incision is made in a VN shape along the hairline behind the neck and in front of and behind the ears, and then the SMAS layer in the area that needs improvement is dissected and lifted upward.
The skin layer is also pulled upward, and then the sagging skin is removed.
If only the outer tissue is pulled, it often returns to its previous state easily, and the outcome is often not satisfying.
Liting’s VN lifting can provide stable improvement in under-chin sagging only when the fascial layer is also pulled, and it can maintain the changed appearance for a longer period of time.
It is also necessary to proceed while carefully considering each individual’s skin characteristics and the stage of aging.

There are various methods for improving a double chin, but what matters most is choosing the method that is right for you.
Rather than making a hasty choice, it is better to find a safe and effective method.
If you are considering lifting because of a double chin, please feel free to contact us anytime.
Thank you.
