Dermatology ClinicBody Botox in Busan, Korea Slimmer-looking shoulders, calves and arms by relaxing bulky muscles, area by area
Body Botox uses larger doses of botulinum toxin to relax muscles that look bulky, such as the trapezius on the shoulders or the calf muscles. At JRYN Seomyeon, a doctor checks how much of the shape is muscle, plans the dose per area and confirms the total. Body Botox starts from ₩29,000 with Korean toxin.
Which body areas can Botox slim?
Body Botox works on areas where a muscle, rather than fat, creates the bulk. The most common are the trapezius (the slope between neck and shoulder), the calves, the shoulder (deltoid) and sometimes the upper arm. As the relaxed muscle gets smaller over several weeks, the line looks longer and softer. It does not remove fat, so areas shaped mainly by fat need a different treatment.
At JRYN Seomyeon, Body Botox is listed at ₩29,000 with Korean toxin, ₩80,000 with Coretox and ₩190,000 with Dysport. Larger muscles or more than one area need more product, so your doctor confirms the dose and total before injecting.

Body Botox by area
Each area has its own goal, dose and things to watch for. Your doctor checks which ones fit your body.
Trapezius (shoulder line)
Relaxes the muscle between the neck and shoulder for a longer-looking neck and a gentler slope. Many people also say their shoulders feel less tense.
Learn more →Calves
Softens a bulky calf muscle for a slimmer lower leg. Walking is normal, but very intense calf training can feel weaker for a while.
Learn more →Shoulders (deltoid)
Reduces a rounded, muscular shoulder cap when it is muscle rather than fat. Planned carefully to keep arm strength.
Upper arms
For a muscular upper arm in selected cases. Arms shaped mainly by fat or loose skin need another approach.
Underarm sweating
Not slimming, but a body use of Botox to reduce excessive sweating. Priced separately as hyperhidrosis Botox.
Learn more →Hands

How much is body Botox in Busan?
At JRYN Seomyeon, Body Botox is ₩29,000 with Korean toxin, ₩80,000 with Coretox and ₩190,000 with Dysport. Larger muscles or more areas need more product, so your doctor confirms the dose and total before treatment.
Which areas are most popular for body Botox?
The trapezius, for a longer-looking neck and softer shoulder line, and the calves, for a slimmer lower leg. Shoulders and arms are treated in selected cases, and underarms are treated for sweating rather than slimming.
When will I see a difference?
The muscle starts to relax within about a week, and the visible slimming usually builds over 2 to 6 weeks. Big muscles such as the calves can take longer to change.
How long does body Botox last?
Often around 4 to 6 months, depending on the area, the dose and how hard you use the muscle. Very active people may find it wears off sooner.
Will I lose strength?
The treated muscle can feel slightly weaker for a while, which is how the slimming happens. Daily activities are normal, but heavy training of that muscle can feel harder. Tell your doctor about your sport or job.
Does body Botox reduce fat?
No. It only makes muscle smaller. If the area is mostly fat, your doctor may suggest fat reduction such as Body Onda or fat-dissolving injections instead.
Can I treat two areas in one visit?
Often yes, for example trapezius and calves together. The total product and price rise with each area, and your doctor confirms both before treatment.
Can I get body Botox as a tourist?
Yes. The injections are quick and you can walk and travel straight away. The slimming develops after you go home, so plan a few weeks before a holiday or event.
