Treatment Overview
The Body Contouring Cryolipolysis Program in Korea is a non-surgical, clinically proven fat-reduction treatment designed to eliminate stubborn fat pockets through controlled cooling. This fat-freezing process, known as cryolipolysis, selectively targets and destroys fat cells without harming the skin, muscles, or surrounding tissues.
Korea’s top aesthetic clinics and dermatology centers utilize advanced cryolipolysis systems, precision temperature-control technology, and detailed body-mapping techniques to deliver safe, comfortable, and highly customized body-contouring results based on each patient’s unique body shape and goals.
