— Key Medical Considerations for Facial Liposuction —

Many patients seek cheek and submental liposuction to achieve a sharp, elegant jawline.

However, facial liposuction is not simply about removing fat.
Anatomical precision and aesthetic design are essential.

⸻

■ Key Point 1: Do not treat only the submental area

Treating only under the chin often results in an incomplete or unnatural contour.

While some patients fear cheek hollowing, proper distinction between fat to remove and fat to preserve allows refinement without gauntness.

⸻

■ Key Point 2: Always consider skin laxity

Any fat reduction leads to some degree of skin laxity.

Ignoring this can result in a blurred or aged appearance.
Adjunct treatments such as RF therapy, thread lifts, or surgical lifts may be necessary.

⸻

■ Key Point 3: Avoid leaving residual fat near the ears

Incomplete fat removal around the preauricular and posterior jawline areas commonly causes contour irregularities.

The facial line must be treated as one continuous structure.

⸻

■ Conclusion

Successful facial liposuction depends on strategic, anatomy-based design, not aggressive fat removal.
