About Doublelo for Bulldog Jowl Lifting

[Lee Yudeuk, Dermatology Specialist]

Hello,

A place that creates a comfortable face, rather than an excessive change.

This is Leejham Dermatology Clinic.

When you look in the mirror, you may have thought at least once that your jawline is not what it used to be. In particular, many people worry about the sagging fat under the jaw that makes the face look like that of a bulldog. Today, through the story of one person who came to us with this concern, we would like to talk together about bulldog jowl lifting and Doublelo.

A beauty consultation that gives you an advantage

"I feel unfamiliar with my own reflection in the mirror"

The visitor I met in the clinic recently

was a woman in her mid-40s.

She was someone who usually had a lot of interest in skin care, but recently she had been upset because her jawline seemed to have collapsed and the lower jaw area had sagged, making her facial contours look blurred.

"Every time I take a photo, I keep changing the angle because I’m so conscious of my jawline, and when I look at my side profile, it seems even more sagged, so my confidence goes down," she said.

This kind of concern is a common change many people experience as they get older.

As skin elasticity decreases and the skin and fat layers sag downward due to gravity, the area under the jaw can appear thicker.

Why does bulldog jowl fat develop?

This phenomenon, called bulldog jowl fat, is medically mainly caused by skin aging and reduced elasticity.

Our skin maintains elasticity because protein fibers called collagen and elastin in the dermis are intertwined like a net, but as we age, the production of these components decreases and the existing fibers are damaged as well.

Just like an old rubber band stretches out, the skin loses elasticity and sags downward.

In particular, the area under the jaw is directly affected by gravity, so sagging becomes more noticeable there.

When expression habits, UV exposure, and sudden weight changes are added, the symptoms can become even more severe.

Why we approach bulldog jowl lifting with Doublelo

When I mentioned Doublelo as a bulldog jowl lifting method to the visitor,

she carefully asked,

"Will ultrasound lifting really be effective?"

Doublelo is a method that uses high-intensity focused ultrasound technology.

To put it simply, just as a magnifying glass concentrates sunlight and creates strong heat at one point, ultrasound energy is focused on a single point in the deep layer of the skin to generate heat.

This heat stimulation is delivered to the dermis and fascia layer, inducing collagen contraction and the formation of new collagen.

Doublelo Gold, which we have, has the advantage of delivering energy precisely, allowing it to act on deep layers without damaging the skin surface.

Principle of action and the change process

To explain the mechanism of Doublelo Gold in more detail, the ultrasound passes through the skin surface and reaches deep into the dermis and even the SMAS layer, which is called the fascia layer.

This layer serves as the structural support of the face, and when heat energy is delivered here, immediate tissue contraction occurs, and over time new collagen is generated, gradually making the skin firmer.

You could say it is similar to reinforcing the pillars of an old building.

Some change can be felt right away, but the true change appears between 4 and 12 weeks, and satisfying results can be expected after 2 to 3 months.

This is because it appears gradually in line with the physiological process of collagen formation.

Procedure and care methods

One of the things the visitor was curious about was pain.

With Doublelo, there may be a slight tingling sensation in areas around the bone, but for most people it is at a tolerable level.

If necessary, a numbing cream can be applied to minimize discomfort.

The procedure takes about 30 minutes to 1 hour for the full face, and it is also a major advantage that you can return to daily life immediately afterward.

Sometimes slight swelling or redness may appear right after the procedure, but it usually subsides naturally within 1 to 3 days.

You can wash your face and apply makeup from the same day, so it does not greatly interfere with daily life.

To maintain the bulldog jowl lifting effect for a long time, aftercare is very important.

For one week, it is better to avoid saunas, steam rooms, and excessive exercise.

Also, you should be thorough about sun protection.

Because ultraviolet rays are a major cause of collagen destruction, you need the habit of carefully applying sunscreen with SPF 50 or higher.

Adequate hydration is also important; drinking about 1.5 to 2 liters of water a day helps skin recovery.

Moisturizing care is also essential.

If you combine Doublelo with moisturizing care such as skin boosters, you can positively improve both skin elasticity and texture at the same time, leading to even more satisfying results.

A positive change for that person after 3 months

The visitor continued to manage things consistently and observed the progress.

After about a month, she said, "I think my jawline has lifted a little," and after 3 months, she smiled brightly and said, "I don’t need to worry about angles when taking photos anymore, and I feel more confident in my side profile."

Since she wanted a natural positive change rather than a dramatic one, Doublelo Gold was a good fit for her case.

Results vary from person to person, but generally last about 6 months to 1 year, and may vary depending on skin care condition and lifestyle habits.

To maintain the effect, it is a good idea to consider returning at intervals of 6 months to 1 year.

We create natural changes together

We think of dermatology care not simply as treatment, but as 'a process of completing your beauty.'

The same goes for bulldog jowl lifting.

What matters most is naturalness without excess and lasting trust.

Because every skin is different, our role is to provide diagnosis and solutions suited to each person’s skin condition and concerns.

With honest treatment, proven methods, and the medical staff’s careful hands, we want to build a relationship that can be trusted for longer than just one visit.

In order to become a place you can trust when skin concerns arise, we will continue to provide honest and sincere care without change.

Until the day your reflection in the mirror looks a little more comfortable and confident, we will walk that path with you.
