Dermatology ClinicFat-Dissolving Injections in Busan, Korea For small, stubborn pockets of fat under the chin, along the jaw or on the body, not for weight loss
Fat-dissolving injections target a small area that diet and exercise have not shifted. At JRYN Seomyeon, a doctor checks whether the area is fat, loose skin or muscle first, then confirms the plan and price at your consultation .
Do fat-dissolving injections really work?
They can, for the right area. The solution is injected into a small pocket of fat, where it breaks down fat cells that the body then clears away over the following weeks. Results are gradual, usually need more than one session, and work best on soft fat you can pinch, such as a double chin or a small bulge on the abdomen. They are not a way to lose weight, and they do not tighten loose skin.
At JRYN Seomyeon, Dr. Yoon Jung-wook examines the area first. If loose skin or muscle is the real cause, another option such as Body Onda or skin tightening may suit you better. The price depends on the area and amount, so it is confirmed at your consultation .

Fat-Dissolving Injections FAQ
Still have questions? Message us on WhatsApp and we will answer in English.
How much do fat-dissolving injections cost in Busan?
At JRYN Seomyeon, the price depends on the area, the amount of solution and the number of sessions, so it is confirmed at your consultation. If a device suits you better, Body Onda is listed at ₩100,000 per 10,000 lines and InMode FX at ₩30,000 per area.
How many sessions will I need?
Most people need several sessions spaced a few weeks apart, because each session reduces only part of the fat. Your doctor estimates the number for your area after examining it, and reviews progress before each session.
Are the results permanent?
Fat cells that are broken down are cleared by the body, but the remaining fat cells can still grow if you gain weight. Keeping a stable weight helps the result last.
Does it hurt, and what is the downtime?
Most people feel stinging or burning for a short time during and after the injections. Swelling, tenderness, warmth and bruising are common for a few days, and swelling under the chin can be quite visible at first.
Can fat-dissolving injections help me lose weight?
No. They are designed for small, localized fat pockets in people who are near their usual weight. For overall weight loss, diet, exercise and medical advice are the right starting point.
What if my double chin is loose skin, not fat?
Then injections may not help much. Your doctor checks this first. Loose skin often responds better to skin tightening or lifting treatments, which can be combined with injections when both fat and laxity are present.
Who should not have fat-dissolving injections?
People who are pregnant or breastfeeding, who have an infection or skin problem in the area, or who have certain medical conditions should not. Tell your doctor about your health, medicines and any previous treatments in the area.
Can I have them during a trip to Busan?
You can, but most people need more than one session, so a single visit may give only a partial result. Plan for a few days of swelling, especially under the chin, and message us on WhatsApp to plan the timing around your trip.
