Face Contouring Injection in Myeongdong, Seoul
A non-surgical injection that breaks down small pockets of stubborn facial fat on the cheeks, chin and jawline for a slimmer, more defined V-line.
What is a Face Contouring Injection? A Face Contouring Injection, also called a facial slimming or fat-dissolving injection, uses fat-dissolving agents such as phosphatidylcholine or deoxycholic acid (DCA) to break down fat cells, which the body then clears naturally over time. It reduces localised fat on the lower cheeks, double chin and jawline without incisions. At Kleam Clinic Myeongdong, a Contouring Injection starts from ₩99,000 for one area.

How it works
How a Face Contouring Injection works
Fine injections place a fat-dissolving solution directly into the targeted fat layer. Agents such as phosphatidylcholine and deoxycholic acid disrupt the membranes of fat cells; the released fat is then processed and eliminated by the body over the following weeks. Because the fat cells in the treated area are reduced, the face looks slimmer and the jawline and chin look more defined.
Results appear gradually over about 2–4 weeks, and sessions can be repeated every few weeks for a stronger effect. Mild swelling, redness or tenderness for a few days is common, especially under the chin. The injection works on fat, not muscle or bone: if a square jaw comes from a strong masseter muscle, jaw Botox is the better choice, and if the chin or jawline lacks structure, filler may be suggested instead. Your doctor will explain which approach suits your face.

FAQ
Face Contouring Injections in Seoul: frequently asked questions
Clear answers to what international guests ask most before booking.
When will I see results?
The slimming effect develops gradually over about 2–4 weeks as the body clears the treated fat.
How many sessions do I need?
It depends on the amount of fat. Many people do a course of sessions a few weeks apart; your doctor will suggest a plan.
Is there downtime?
Downtime is minimal, but mild swelling, redness or tenderness for a few days is common, especially under the chin.
Contouring injection or jaw Botox: which do I need?
Contouring injections reduce fat; jaw Botox slims a square jaw caused by a strong masseter muscle. Some people benefit from both. Your doctor will check which applies to you.
Is it a substitute for weight loss?
No. It is for small, localised fat pockets, not for general weight loss.
Can I do it during a short trip?
Yes. The injection takes 15–30 minutes and you can continue your day, but allow for a few days of mild swelling.
