Treatment Overview
Korean Mesolipo Fat Dissolving Injection in Korea is a non-surgical injectable treatment that targets localized fat deposits to slim and contour both facial and body areas. Utilizing advanced Korean mesotherapy-based lipolytic formulations, which often include deoxycholic acid, phosphatidylcholine, and fat-melting compounds, Mesolipo selectively breaks down fat cells, which are naturally metabolized and eliminated via the lymphatic system.
Mesolipo is especially effective for areas such as the double chin, jawline, cheeks, abdomen, flanks, arms, thighs, hips, knees, bra fat, and back rolls, delivering gradual, natural-looking fat reduction and body shaping.
Korea is internationally recognized for Mesolipo programs that integrate:
- Ultrasound-guided fat mapping for precise injection depth
- Microinjection (mesotherapy) techniques for uniform fat dissolution
- AI-assisted facial and body contour analysis for personalized results
- Combination therapy with RF, HIFU, or EMSculpt for enhanced tightening
- Lymphatic drainage support to accelerate fat removal
- Outpatient, low-downtime treatment sessions
This ensures safe, effective fat reduction, refined contours, and harmonious body shaping.
