Treatment Overview
Hyaluronidase Slimming Injection in Korea is a non-surgical injectable treatment that helps dissolve localized fat or unwanted filler material by breaking down hyaluronic acid and connective tissue in the fat layer. Unlike deoxycholic acid, which directly destroys fat cells, hyaluronidase increases tissue permeability and helps disperse fluids, leading to a contouring and slimming effect.
In Korean dermatology clinics, hyaluronidase injections are commonly used for face slimming (jawline, cheeks, double chin) and for body areas such as calves, thighs, arms, and abdomen when localized puffiness or stubborn bulk is present. It is often combined with lipolytic injections, botulinum toxin (muscle reduction), or RF skin tightening to maximize slimming results.
Purpose & Benefits
- Localized Slimming: Reduces puffiness and volume in treated areas.
- Contour Refinement: Improves face and body line definition.
- Quick Action: Effects visible within days.
- Non-Surgical: Minimally invasive with no scars.
- Versatile Use: Dissolves both fat deposits and unwanted dermal filler.
- Combination Friendly: Works well with Botox, fat-dissolvers, or skin tightening.
