Double Chin Removal Surgery? If You Want to Succeed

Hello, I’m Lee Seong-joon, the chief director of the Seoul branch of Liting Plastic Surgery.

Some people say that a few years ago it definitely wasn’t like this, but these days their double chin seems especially noticeable.

It’s easy to see people who are deeply concerned because no matter how much they diet or massage, their jawline still does not become sharp.

This is not simply a matter of “fat,” but rather a phenomenon that can appear as the skin sags due to aging.

Today, for those looking into double chin removal surgery because of these concerns, I’d like to introduce facelift surgery.

What Is a Facelift?

In simple terms, a facelift is a surgery that lifts sagging skin caused by aging.

The principle is to dissect the SMAS layer and retaining ligaments inside, then pull and secure them appropriately to make the skin firm and taut.

Rather than simply improving elasticity, it addresses the underlying cause, which is an advantage because it can create a clear change.

For those considering double chin removal surgery because of loose chin fat, or those worried about a tired-looking face or a negative impression due to sagging skin, it can produce effective results in improving aging-related concerns.

Why Retaining Ligament Dissection Is Necessary

In a facelift, dissection of the SMAS layer and retaining ligaments plays an important role.

Retaining ligaments are located just beneath the SMAS layer and function to hold the positions of the various tissues in the skin layer.

For that reason, the retaining ligaments need to be dissected so that the SMAS layer can move smoothly.

Only after releasing them at the proper points and pulling them can the jawline, which is important in double chin removal surgery, as well as the overall facial line, be designed smoothly.

The Key to a Facelift

When considering double chin removal surgery, you will likely look into information from many hospitals.

At that time, it is a good idea to check whether the medical team at the plastic surgery clinic has excellent skill in dissecting the SMAS layer and retaining ligaments.

For facelift surgery, it is important to precisely target the SMAS layer, and delicate technique is needed to pull in the direction of the tissue fibers.

In addition, because hidden retaining ligaments must be found and released all at once to reduce problems such as swelling and bleeding, please check this part carefully.

What Should You Be Careful About After Surgery?

After a facelift, you should pay attention to a few things to expect smooth recovery and stable results.

Swelling may occur at first, but this is natural. Although it may vary by person, it generally subsides after about 2 to 3 weeks, so there is no need to worry too much.

For about 1 to 2 weeks, it is helpful to sleep in the proper position rather than leaning to one side.

Along with this, for about a month, you should avoid strenuous exercise, saunas, drinking alcohol, and smoking.

Also, caffeine can interfere with hemostasis, so it is recommended to avoid consuming it until 70 hours after surgery.
