Treatment Overview
Korean Double Chin Injection Therapy in Korea is a non-surgical injectable fat-reduction treatment developed to eliminate localized submental (double chin) fat and enhance jawline definition. This therapy uses advanced Korean lipolytic formulations, commonly containing deoxycholic acid and phosphatidylcholine, to selectively break down fat cells beneath the chin. The destroyed fat cells are then naturally metabolized and removed through the lymphatic system.
This treatment is ideal for individuals with mild to moderate double chin fullness who seek natural-looking jawline contouring without surgery or liposuction.
Korea is internationally recognized for Double Chin Injection Therapy programs that integrate:
- Ultrasound-guided injections for precise submental fat targeting
- Micro-dose, multi-point injection techniques for smooth and even contouring
- AI-assisted facial mapping for balanced jawline aesthetics
- Optional combination with RF or HIFU for skin tightening and lifting
- Safe outpatient procedures with minimal downtime
This approach ensures effective fat reduction, improved chin contour, and refined lower-face aesthetics.
