How many sessions will I need?

Each injection is offered as a single session or a 3-session course. Contouring and Sculpting courses are spaced 2 to 3 weeks apart, and V-Fit courses 1 to 2 weeks apart.

Do the injections contain steroids?

The Contouring-type formulas contain a small amount of steroid, which can rarely cause redness, menstrual cycle changes or irregular bleeding. V-Fit Injection is the steroid-free option.

Can I have it during a short trip to Seoul?

You can cleanse and wear makeup right after the injections. A 3-session course needs return visits 1 to 3 weeks apart depending on the formula, so plan your dates with the clinic.

What is the difference between Jawline Botox and Contouring Injection?

Both help the face look smaller, but they target different concerns. For faces with both muscle and fat concerns, Jawline Botox relaxes the muscles to soften angular features, while Contouring Injection breaks down excess fat so the body can eliminate it. Contouring Injection is most often used on cheek fat or a double chin, but it can also be used on any fatty area, such as the front of the cheekbones or the jowls.

What is the difference between Contouring Injection and V-Fit Injection?

Both break down and eliminate excess facial fat. Contouring Injection contains a small amount of steroid, which may occasionally cause flushing, menstrual irregularities, or abnormal bleeding. V-Fit Injection contains no steroid, so we recommend it if you have a steroid allergy or concerns about steroids. Because its fat-dissolving ingredients are less concentrated, a larger volume must be injected, which tends to cause more swelling than Contouring Injection. Consider your schedule and physical condition carefully when you choose.
