Treatment Overview
Laser Jawline Contouring in Korea is a non-invasive dermatology procedure that uses advanced laser technologies to reduce fat, tighten skin, and sculpt the jawline. By targeting the dermal and subcutaneous layers, lasers stimulate collagen and elastin production, providing a firmer, more defined lower-face appearance.
Korean dermatology clinics are recognized worldwide for their highly precise laser devices, innovative treatment protocols, and combination therapy approaches, ensuring natural-looking jawline results without surgical intervention.
Common laser technologies include:
- Nd:YAG Laser: Effective for fat reduction and skin tightening.
- Fractional CO₂ Laser: Improves skin texture, firmness, and collagen remodeling.
- Diode or Erbium Lasers: Non-invasive skin tightening and rejuvenation.
These lasers are often combined with RF, ultrasound, or dermal filler therapies for optimal jawline sculpting.
