Can it really help?

Hello, I’m Lee Young-soo, the head doctor at Troy Plastic Surgery, where I provide lifting treatments near Mokdong Station.
When I consult with patients who come in worried about a double chin or jawline issues, there is one question I hear most often.
“Doctor, if I get InMode for my double chin, will it all go away?”
“My jawline looks loose and makes my face look bigger. Will this work?”
Many people think of “InMode” as some kind of magical device that simply melts away fat.
However, from a doctor’s perspective, InMode is not a physical “fat removal device.”
It is closer to a device that uses energy to induce the skin’s natural tissue response.

InMode refines facial contours through two main actions.
-
It delivers radiofrequency energy to the dermis → stimulating collagen to make the skin firmer
-
Through suction that pulls on the skin and heat stimulation → it induces a reduction response in unnecessary fat layers
But the most important thing here is not the machine’s principle. It is distinguishing whether the real reason your jawline has become loose is “simply fat accumulation” or whether the structure itself has sagged downward.
- In these cases, InMode is a good first consideration

If you show the following characteristics, InMode can be a very good option.
• The fat under the chin is relatively shallow and can be grasped as a moderately thick layer
• The skin is not in a severely stretched or sagging state
• An early stage of reduced elasticity, where the skin has become thin and floppy
• When the face looks dull due to a double chin or cheek fullness, but surgery still feels burdensome
Mokdong Station InMode is often very suitable for improving this early stage, where the issue is not so much “shifting position” (sagging) but rather a drop in surface skin density and elasticity, allowing for natural tightening.
- In these cases, a different approach is needed

On the other hand, in the following cases, the effect may not feel significant with InMode alone.
• When the skin itself has stretched significantly and hangs long under the chin
• Deep, severe structural sagging in middle-aged and older adults
• When the entire facial fat has shifted downward and the supporting structure (the SMAS layer) feels collapsed
In such cases, simply tightening the skin surface has limitations.
An approach that lifts the loosened structure upward (such as ultrasound lifting or surgery) may need to be combined.
That is why, in the clinic, the first thing I check is the patient’s “skin thickness,” “fat layer distribution,” and the degree of sagging.
- When do InMode results appear?

Even immediately after the procedure, you may feel temporary tightening of the skin from the hot thermal sensation.
However, the real change begins about 2 to 4 weeks after the procedure, as your body gradually starts the collagen regeneration response.
Mokdong Station InMode is a treatment where you watch for your skin’s natural response over time, rather than expecting an immediate magic-like disappearance of fat.

It varies depending on the individual’s amount of fat and elasticity, but in general:
• Initially, repeated treatments are often performed at 2- to 3-week intervals
• After that, many cases are managed as maintenance treatments at intervals of at least one month
However, more sessions at a stronger intensity are not always better.
If too much energy is delivered, it can actually cause hollowing in the cheeks or trigger dryness of the skin,
so delicate adjustment of the intensity to match the patient’s condition is especially important.
- Q&A

InMode jawline sagging
Q. Is Mokdong Station InMode permanent, like liposuction surgery?
A. It is not the same concept as surgery that directly removes fat.
Since aging continues, it is more appropriate to view it as a “maintenance-based approach” for ongoing elasticity stimulation and contour refinement.
Q. Is the pain very severe?
A. There is a suction sensation as the skin is vacuumed in, along with a hot thermal feeling.
However, the intensity can be sufficiently adjusted during the procedure to match the patient’s skin sensitivity.
Q. Is it better if I combine it with other lifting treatments?
A. If the patient’s face has combined aging with both sagging and reduced elasticity,
there can definitely be good synergy when it is combined with other lifting methods that pull the structure upward.
Doctor’s note
InMode is not a device that forcibly removes fat, but a device that helps elasticity by adjusting the skin’s tissue response.
- In summary

InMode jawline sagging
Mokdong Station InMode tends to deliver the highest patient satisfaction when the goal is:
-
Early loss of elasticity
-
A shallow, moderately thick fat layer
-
Natural refinement of the jawline contour
However, if severe structural sagging is already present, a different approach may be needed instead of InMode.
The standard for lifting success is not “which device is trending now,” but
“what method does my current facial condition require?”
