Liposuction Specialist THE CLINIC Introduces '360 Facial Liposuction®' to Harmonize the Entire Facial Contour

A New Approach to Facial Contouring

THE CLINIC, which boasts over 18 years of clinical experience specializing in liposuction and fat grafting (Managed by THE CLINIC Institute, Headquartered in Minato-ku, Tokyo, Representative: Masataka Ohashi), has introduced its new service, '360 Facial Liposuction®.'

Traditionally, facial liposuction has primarily focused on 'trouble spots' like cheeks or under the chin. This new procedure shifts the focus to the entire face as a single contour, aiming for a natural-looking facial line from every angle.

### The Limitations of Spot Treatment

While treating specific areas like cheeks can make the face appear slimmer, it may lead to unnatural irregularities or skewed lines when viewed from side profiles or angles, even if the frontal view looks balanced. Since the face is observed from all angles, the traditional 'spot treatment' approach often results in inconsistent outcomes.

### Consumer Survey Insights

In an awareness survey conducted by THE CLINIC on 462 women in their 20s to 40s, the following results were obtained:

- Most Concerning Areas (Issues): 1. Overall facial roundness/size (21.4%) 2. Facial sagging (20.1%) 3. Fat under the chin (13.9%) 4. Blurred facial line (11.3%)

The results highlight that concerns focus on the 'entire shape' of the face. Approximately 90% of respondents felt unsatisfied with their results from self-care methods such as dieting or facial massages. Furthermore, those who had previously undergone facial liposuction cited 'unnatural balance when viewed from the side' and 'unevenness/bumpy skin' as significant issues.

### Liposuction Starting with 'Design'

'360 Facial Liposuction' is a method that designs the entire face as one contour.

1. Upright Marking: Precision checks on fat distribution and skeletal balance. 2. Use of VASER Liposuction: Ensures smooth and even fat removal.

THE CLINIC's 18 years of experience has led to the conclusion that the quality of the finish is determined not by 'how much was removed' but by 'how much was treated as a unified whole.' This new menu embodies this design philosophy.
