Hello, this is Dr. Joongjae Baek, Director at TheLINE Plastic Surgery, a clinic specializing in body contouring.
At 159cm and 51kg, these are figures anyone would envy for a slender build. On paper, a very slim build is enough to look slender in clothes, yet there is always that 'hidden 2%' of dissatisfaction only the person herself knows about. In particular, a thin layer of flesh around the abdomen blurs the waistline, and when a lack of pelvic volume by contrast makes the lower body feel abruptly cut off, the overall proportions can look shorter. The patient in this case also had a slim 51kg build, yet because of the fine folds of flesh at her lower abdomen and flanks her waistline was not coming through, and the hollow at the side of the buttocks known as 'hip dip' stood out, so she chose our combined abdominal liposuction and pelvic fat grafting procedure.
These are the patient's pre-operative photos. A slim build has the ideal base for looking slender in anything, but to complete the detail of the 'delicate S-line' she wanted, precise redistribution is needed: removing fat where it is unnecessary and filling in where it is needed. We first used abdominal liposuction to finely clear the flesh interrupting the waistline, uncovering her hidden narrow waist. The precious pure fat obtained through abdominal liposuction then went through TheLINE's own purification process and was used as the key material for pelvic fat grafting to fill the outer volume of the pelvis. Rather than simply widening the sides of the pelvis, we delicately connected the gentle curve running from the narrowed waist down to the pelvis, maximizing the visual effect in which the waist looks even slimmer and the pelvis is emphasized with firmness when seen from the front.
In a slim build around 51kg in particular, the volume of fat that can be extracted is limited, so an important part of the surgery is the 'graft survival rate' - harvesting high-purity fat while minimizing tissue damage during abdominal liposuction, and then how stably it settles during pelvic fat grafting. TheLINE's SVF fat grafting injects highly concentrated SVF energy together with the fat cells, helping the grafted fat receive nutrients quickly and survive in its new location. The abundant growth factors in SVF promote microvascular regeneration, so the volume does not deflate over time, and a soft feel like your own tissue and a firm line are maintained for a long time.
These are the patient's photos at three months after surgery. SVF technology promises 'outstanding recovery' even after a combined procedure of abdominal liposuction and pelvic fat grafting. The strong regenerative energy and anti-inflammatory action of SVF support the recovery of tissue irritated during surgery as it happens, dramatically settling bruising and swelling. This greatly reduces the physical burden the patient feels right after surgery, helping her return to daily life quickly without a long separate rest period. Stem cell energy also raises the density of the abdominal skin where fat was removed, encouraging it to settle smoothly without sagging after surgery and raising the completeness of a natural silhouette.
Now, three months after surgery, the patient has moved entirely away from her former straight, flat body line and shows off a beautifully flowing hourglass silhouette. She shared a grateful review, saying, "Abdominal liposuction tucked my waist right in, and using that fat for pelvic fat grafting means people tell me my jeans fit beautifully even without shapewear, which makes me so happy." ^^ Beyond simply adding and removing fat, we invite you to complete the best real S-line of your life through TheLINE's signature procedure, which designs the finest feminine balance achievable within your own skeletal structure.
