Treatment Overview
FatCut Double Chin Injection in Korea is a non-surgical injectable treatment designed to reduce submental (double chin) fat and enhance jawline definition. Using advanced Korean lipolytic formulations, including deoxycholic acid and phosphatidylcholine, the injection targets fat cells under the chin, which are naturally metabolized and eliminated through the lymphatic system.
The treatment is ideal for patients with mild to moderate double chin fat, providing gradual, natural-looking jawline and chin contouring without surgery or liposuction.
Korea is internationally recognized for FatCut Double Chin programs that integrate:
- Ultrasound-guided injection for precise submental fat targeting
- Microinjection techniques for uniform fat reduction
- AI-assisted facial mapping for optimal jawline aesthetics
- Optional combination with RF or HIFU for enhanced skin tightening and contouring
- Outpatient sessions with minimal downtime
This ensures safe, effective reduction of double chin fat and improved lower-face contour.
