Treatment Overview
Flank InMode Contouring in Korea is a non-surgical dermatology procedure designed to reduce fat and tighten loose skin around the flanks and love handle areas. Utilizing InMode’s radiofrequency-assisted technology (RFAL), the treatment simultaneously melts stubborn fat and stimulates collagen and elastin production, resulting in a firmer, smoother, and more contoured waistline and flanks without invasive surgery.
This procedure is ideal for individuals with stubborn flank fat, post-weight-loss sagging, or age-related skin laxity. Korean clinics often combine InMode treatments with HIFU, RF boosters, lipolysis, or skin rejuvenation therapies to enhance contouring, firming, and skin quality.
