Treatment Overview
The Fat-Freezing Cryolipolysis Contouring Program in Korea is a non-surgical, medically approved fat-reduction therapy that uses controlled cooling to target and eliminate stubborn fat cells. This cryolipolysis procedure selectively destroys fat while protecting the skin, muscles, and surrounding tissues, making it a safe and effective body-contouring solution.
