Treatment Overview
The Physician-Supervised Fat Reduction Program in Korea is a medically guided weight management program that focuses on targeted fat loss through a combination of personalized diet, exercise, behavioral counseling, and optional medical therapies. This program is designed for individuals who struggle with stubborn fat deposits despite lifestyle interventions and aim for safe, sustainable, and physician-monitored fat reduction.
Korean clinics utilize advanced diagnostic tools, including body composition analysis (InBody/DEXA), resting metabolic rate (RMR) testing, and hormonal and metabolic panels, to tailor interventions. Optional adjunctive therapies such as GLP-1 therapy, fat-burning injections, laser lipolysis, or metabolic reset protocols can enhance results. AI-assisted monitoring ensures precise adjustments and optimal outcomes.
