Treatment Overview
The Laser-Assisted Fat Reduction Therapy in Korea is a minimally invasive fat-melting and body sculpting procedure that uses targeted laser energy to liquefy stubborn fat deposits, tighten skin, and enhance natural body contours. This technique provides highly controlled fat reduction while stimulating collagen to deliver a smoother, firmer, and more refined silhouette.
Korean clinics use next-generation laser lipolysis systems equipped with temperature-controlled delivery, micro-cannulas, and real-time monitoring, ensuring superior precision and safety for areas such as the abdomen, thighs, waist, arms, hips, back, and chin.
