Scapula
For those whose area around the shoulder blades looks thick, and who want a back line that appears slimmer.
TheLINE
Scapula, hump and ankles
An uncharted territory where detail was always missing
Special Area Body Contouring
Even with regular workouts or basic liposuction, if detailed satisfaction is lacking, addressing the finer areas raises your satisfaction
Special Area Liposuction
TheLINE refines the missed details: scapula, buffalo hump and ankles.

It is a surgery that refines the scapula, buffalo hump and ankles - areas basic liposuction could not reach - with a specialized cannula. It is the last area sought out by those who want meticulous care for their whole body.
Even with regular workouts or basic liposuction, if detailed satisfaction is lacking, refining the special areas raises your satisfaction. A protruding scapula, a hump that keeps the neck from looking long, and ankles where the bone is not visible are the typical cases.
TheLINE removes fat delicately, as if sculpting, with a specialized cannula to create the contour. The goal is a refined line that others may not notice but that satisfies you.
Surgery can be difficult when there is little fat in the desired area, or when the area is developed with muscle or has a large bone structure rather than fat. TheLINE checks the fat distribution first through consultation and diagnosis.
A greater volume of fat can be removed while bruising, swelling and pain tend to be less, and the result is finished as a smooth contour without irregularities. The regenerative effects of SVF are felt first by the patients who undergo the procedure.
Recommendation Target
These are the last three areas left in meticulous self-care.
For those whose area around the shoulder blades looks thick, and who want a back line that appears slimmer.
For those who want to smooth out a hump protruding at the nape, like a forward head posture, so the neck looks longer.
For those whose ankles look thick due to excess fat, but who want slim ankles where the bone is visible.
※ Surgery can be difficult when there is little fat in the desired area, or when the area is developed with muscle or has a large bone structure rather than fat.
Scapula & Buffalo Hump & Ankle
Scapula, buffalo hump and ankles are each designed separately.
Protruding scapula
Fat around the shoulder blades is removed delicately so the back line looks tidy and the scapula shows through naturally.
A longer neck line
Fat in the hump rising below the nape, like a forward head posture, is removed to smooth the line running from the neck to the shoulders.
Bone-showing ankles
Fat around the ankle is shaved off thinly with a specialized cannula, refining the line that falls from the calf to the ankle into a slender one.
SVF Liposuction Solution
Fat is removed delicately and finished with fresh SVF.

Recovery & Aftercare
Here is the flow from the day of surgery through aftercare.
SURGERY DAY
Special Area Liposuction is performed under sedation, and the operation time is about 1-2 hours per area. When the scapula, hump and ankles are treated together, the time increases with the number of areas.
COMPRESSION CARE
Compression methods differ from area to area, so a compression garment or compression band is worn as needed. How to wear it is explained according to the treated area.
SUTURE REMOVAL
Sutures at the micro-incision on the inner arm or at the tailbone are removed on day 7.
AFTERCARE
Two aftercare sessions are provided while the recovery progress is checked. The aftercare system TheLINE has built over 19 years and 80,000 cases since 2007 stays with you through recovery.
※ Unexpected side effects such as inflammation, bleeding and infection may occur, and the degree varies from person to person, so care is required.
