Cheeks and under chin

People often say that cheek fat is an asset, but

fat around the jawline can become a liability.

In facial liposuction, what matters is not just how much fat is removed,

but where to remove it and where to preserve it.

Fat around the jawline and under the chin tends to create heaviness with aging.

On the other hand, the malar area must be treated carefully.

Removing too much can lead to hollowness and an older appearance.

Thread lifting can also be used not only for lifting,

but in a way that works with post-liposuction contracture and adhesion to help define the jawline.

In both the face and the body, liposuction should be based on

what to remove and what to leave behind.
