How much do double chin fat-dissolving injections cost in Korea at Barog Clinic?
They are billed per session on the posted board, starting from ₩18,000 for the standard contour tier and ₩42,000 for the stronger power tier, VAT excluded. Because the treatment is a course, your total depends on how many sessions the submental fat needs, which is assessed at the first visit and not fixed in advance.
How does a fat-dissolving injection actually remove a double chin?
It places a deoxycholic-acid-class solution into the fat pocket under the chin. Deoxycholic acid disrupts the walls of the fat cells it reaches, and the body clears those cells over the following weeks. Because the treated cells are destroyed and not merely shrunk, the reduction in that pocket is lasting. It reduces a fat deposit; it does not tighten skin or cause weight loss.
How many sessions does a double chin injection take?
Usually a course of several, commonly in the range of two to four, spaced about four weeks apart. Each session dissolves part of the fat it reaches, and the gap between sessions lets the swelling settle so the remaining fat can be judged. The stronger power tier can reduce the count for denser fat, and the exact number is set after assessing your submental fat.
Why can't it be done in one session?
Each injection only breaks down the fat it directly contacts, and the body needs weeks to clear those cells and let the swelling resolve. Injecting again before that happens makes it impossible to see how much fat is left. The spacing is where the assessment lives, so a single-visit version would either underdose or overdose. It is a staged course by design.
Is the double chin result permanent?
For the fat cells cleared, yes: once destroyed they do not return, so that pocket stays reduced. What is not frozen is the rest of your body, so significant weight gain can still add fat elsewhere or in remaining cells. Within a stable weight, the treated submental reduction is lasting, which is one of the treatment's main appeals.
What are the real risks of a double chin injection?
After each session, swelling and tenderness under the chin for several days are expected and can be visible. Common effects include bruising, firmness or lumps as the fat clears, temporary numbness, and redness. Less common are nerve-related effects such as a temporary uneven smile and difficulty swallowing, so the injector works to a careful grid and screens for swallowing concerns first.
Will the injection tighten loose skin under my chin?
No. It reduces fat, and if the fullness under your chin is actually loose skin and not fat, dissolving the fat beneath can leave the skin looser, without improving it. The assessment keeps the two apart and candid; if skin laxity is the real issue, a firming approach is discussed instead, so you are not put through a fat course that will not fix it.
Does the double chin injection hurt?
Topical numbing is applied to the grid first, and each injection is small, so most patients report stinging and pressure during the session and a burning or aching feeling for a short while afterward as the solution acts. A session runs about 10 to 20 minutes. The tenderness in the days after is usually the more noticeable part than the injection itself.
How is this different from a fat-melting device for the double chin?
The injection is placed directly into the fat with a needle, which suits a defined submental pocket and lets the dose be tuned to how much fat is present. A device works through the skin surface instead. For a distinct pad of fat under the chin the injection is often the straightforward pick, but the right choice depends on your anatomy and is made at the first assessment.
Can I finish the whole course during one trip to Busan?
Usually not, because the sessions are spaced weeks apart on purpose. The practical plan for a visitor is one or two sessions here, with the neckline continuing to improve afterward, and the remaining sessions continued at home or on a return visit. The swelling after each session settles within days, so a session fits an evening slot around sightseeing.
Is there downtime after each session?
Swelling and tenderness under the chin for a few days are the main thing, and the swelling can be noticeable, so it is worth planning a session for a day when a slightly puffy jaw is not a problem. Bruising and firmness as the fat clears are common too. There is nothing to bandage, and most people carry on with normal activity.
Why get this treatment in Busan rather than Seoul?
Busan runs fewer international clinics than Seoul, which usually means shorter waits for the same per-session board. Seomyeon, Busan sits on the main subway crossing with KTX and airport rail nearby, and weekday evenings stay open until 8pm, so a quick session fits around a day out. For a staged course, an accessible, evening-open clinic makes fitting sessions in easier.
How do I know the solution used is genuine?
Sixteen authenticity and quantity certificates from product and device manufacturers are displayed at the clinic, and the solution for your treatment is opened at your chair, never out of sight. Barog Clinic is also registered with KHIDI to receive international patients, a status that requires liability insurance and documented standards.
