SculpSure Submental in Korea

SculpSure Submental

Treatment Overview

SculpSure Submental in Korea is a non-invasive laser fat reduction treatment designed specifically to target stubborn fat beneath the chin. Using FDA-approved 1060 nm laser technology, SculpSure gently heats and destroys fat cells while leaving the surrounding skin unharmed. Over the following weeks, the body naturally eliminates these damaged fat cells, leading to a slimmer, more defined jawline.

Unlike injections or surgery, SculpSure is needle-free and incision-free, making it an excellent option for patients who want double chin reduction with no downtime. It is often chosen in Korea by patients seeking a sharper “V-line” contour without invasive procedures.


Purpose & Benefits

  • Double Chin Fat Reduction: Eliminates submental fat permanently.
  • Jawline Contouring: Improves facial balance and sharpens the V-line.
  • Non-Invasive Laser: No needles, anesthesia, or surgery required.
  • Quick Treatment: Each session takes about 25 minutes.
  • Minimal Downtime: Patients resume normal activities immediately.

Ideal Candidates

SculpSure Submental in Korea is recommended for:

  • Adults with mild to moderate double chin fat.
  • Patients with good skin elasticity.
  • Individuals seeking a needle-free, non-invasive solution.
  • Those preferring gradual, natural results over weeks.
  • Patients who want permanent fat removal but without surgery.

Possible Risks & Complications

  • Redness & Warmth: Mild, temporary after treatment.
  • Swelling or Tenderness: Common but resolves within days.
  • Numbness or Tingling: May last for a few days.
  • Rare Risks: Uneven results if multiple sessions skipped.
  • Not Suitable For: Pregnant women, severely obese patients, or those with metal implants in the treatment area.

Surgical Techniques Used

  • Laser Lipolysis (Non-Invasive): 1060 nm diode laser heats fat cells to 42–47°C, causing cell death.
  • Precision Applicator: Small submental applicator designed for chin and jawline areas.
  • Cooling Mechanism: Protects skin while heating fat cells.
  • Treatment Time: 25 minutes per session.
  • Sessions Required: 1–3 sessions, spaced 6 weeks apart.

Recovery & Aftercare

  • Immediately: Mild warmth or redness in treated area.
  • 1–3 Days: Tenderness or slight swelling may occur.
  • 6–12 Weeks: Fat gradually eliminated; results become visible.

Aftercare Tips:

  • Stay hydrated to support fat metabolism.
  • Avoid hot saunas or vigorous workouts for 24 hours.
  • Maintain a stable weight to preserve results.
  • Apply SPF 50+ sunscreen if chin area is exposed.

Results & Longevity

  • After 6 Weeks: Initial slimming noticeable.
  • After 12 Weeks: Maximum fat reduction and contouring visible.
  • Longevity: Permanent fat removal; destroyed fat cells don’t regenerate. However, weight gain can create new deposits.
