Treatment Overview
Aqua Cellulite Therapy is a specialized body treatment offered in Korean dermatology clinics, designed to reduce cellulite, smooth uneven skin texture, and improve body contours. This treatment typically combines aqua-based mesotherapy infusions, fat-dissolving agents, collagen stimulators, and circulation boosters. The therapy targets the fibrous bands and trapped fat deposits that cause dimpling, while also hydrating and firming the skin for a toned appearance.
In Korea, Aqua Cellulite Therapy is popular among patients seeking non-surgical body sculpting, particularly for thighs, buttocks, abdomen, and arms. It emphasizes a holistic approach—reducing fat, improving lymphatic drainage, and tightening skin simultaneously.
