Quick answer
What Are Fat Dissolving Injections?
Fat dissolving injections are injectable solutions placed directly into subcutaneous fat to break down fat cells in a small area. The body then clears the released fat over the following weeks. They shape specific areas; they are not a weight-loss treatment.
Different formulas exist. Internationally, the best-studied ingredient is deoxycholic acid, a bile-acid compound approved in several countries for fat under the chin; other products use phosphatidylcholine or plant-derived lipolytic blends. At BLS Clinic Main Branch the doctor chooses the product for each area and explains its ingredients and expected side effects before treatment.
Face and body need different approaches. For the face see Face Slimming Injection and Double Chin Treatment; for larger body areas see Body Contouring.

Do fat dissolving injections really work?

How many fat dissolving sessions will I need?
Most people need a series. The number depends on the area and the amount of fat, and the doctor will give you a realistic plan at the consultation.
What are the side effects of fat dissolving injections?

Yes, one session fits easily into a trip. Because results build over a series, many visitors start in Seoul and continue on later visits, keeping in touch with BLS by WhatsApp.
