Face Liposuction in Returning Plastic Surgery
About the clinic
Face liposuction at Returning Plastic Surgery in Seoul, South Korea, can target the cheeks, jawline, or double chin. Head surgeon Dr. Kim Yong-woo personally performs every operation at this KOIHA-accredited clinic.
Areas treated and surgical options
The procedure removes facial fat, including under the chin and around the cheeks. It can be combined with platysma muscle tightening, deep fat removal, or cog thread lifting.
Jawline and double-chin liposuction takes about 20 minutes. A combined procedure with muscle tightening and thread lifting takes about one hour.
Anesthesia and aftercare
Sedation with propofol is combined with tumescent local anesthesia. The clinic says it uses no drains or wicks during the procedure.
A pre-operative diagnosis helps assess fat distribution and its cause. Patients arrive fasting for same-day surgery under sedation.
A follow-up treatment visit takes place the next day, and stitches are removed on day 7. Patients wear a compression face garment for about one to two months.
