Facial Fat Reduction Surgery: How to Avoid Sagging and Hollowing Hyundai Aesthetic Surgery

Hello, this is Hyundai Aesthetic Surgery. After eye and nose surgery, many people consider the face shape to be one of the most important areas. Depending on the shape and contours of the face, even someone with a slim body can look heavier or puffier, so many patients look into and ask us about facial fat reduction surgery and procedures. With this topic in mind, we would like to discuss facial liposuction, a surgery that helps refine facial fat and the facial line.

In addition to facial fat reduction surgery, many people also manage their face shape with non-surgical procedures. For example, patients often look into types of laser lifting such as InMode or Shurink. However, because these are procedures, the effect may be relatively limited and lasts only for a certain period of time. Patients who do not see sufficient results from procedures often ask about facial fat reduction surgery. One such option is facial liposuction. Facial liposuction refers to a surgery that removes and suctions out fat to help the face shape appear slimmer.

Facial liposuction, a type of facial fat reduction surgery, can broadly improve areas such as the deep cheek fat often called bulldog cheeks, cheek fat and zygomatic fat that look especially full when fat accumulates, and even the jawline area that appears saggy due to excess fat. Many patients are also curious about the surgical process for facial liposuction. First, through consultation, we assess the areas where fat should be removed and the amount of fat, then design the line in harmony with the overall balance and proportions of the face. Liposuction is then performed through less noticeable areas from the front, such as under the chin or below the ear.

If you are considering this type of facial fat reduction surgery, it can be helpful to check whether you are a suitable candidate. Facial liposuction may be appropriate for those whose impression is affected by excessive cheek fat, those with an uneven facial line, or those who want satisfying results without touching the facial bones. However, it is clear that for this kind of facial fat reduction surgery, choosing an experienced medical team is very important.

This is because, considering the structure of the face, the fat layer must be targeted accurately so that only unnecessary fat is suctioned out. If this process is not properly followed during facial fat reduction surgery and other structural layers are affected, side effects such as hollowing or sagging may occur, so special care is required and the choice of medical staff must be made carefully. As in the before-and-after case above, when an appropriate amount of fat is suctioned evenly and symmetrically, you can expect the entire face to look naturally smoother.

If you proceed with facial liposuction simply because you want facial fat reduction surgery, without considering low cost or the medical team’s experience, sagging may make the skin look as if it is drooping, and if the amount of fat removed from the left and right sides of the face is not even, facial imbalance or asymmetry may become noticeable. Therefore, it is important to meet a medical team with a strong understanding of facial symmetry. It may be helpful to first try procedures within reasonable limits, and if the concern is not resolved, consider facial fat reduction surgery after consultation. Thank you.
