Targeted slimming is care that aims to improve your body line by assessing fat distribution and skin condition in specific areas such as the abdomen, flanks, thighs, and upper arms. The direction of treatment differs depending on your concern, such as localized fat accumulation, the uneven appearance of cellulite, or reduced elasticity.
At Cheong-dam Oriental Clinic Gwanghwamun, we check the fat layer and skin elasticity of the treatment area, your health, and your goals, then choose the suitable treatment from pharmacopuncture, shockwave, ONDA, and others.
We explain the expected reactions and precautions for each individual before the procedure, and adjust aftercare and the next session according to your progress.

FAQ
For any other questions, please ask when booking your visit.
Will I lose weight just with targeted slimming?
The main goal is to improve the contour or skin appearance of the treated area. We do not regard it as a substitute for weight loss; if overall weight loss is needed, we separately assess your diet, lifestyle, and suitability for medication.
Do I need pharmacopuncture, shockwave, and microwave all together?
No. We decide on single or combined treatment based on the fat and skin condition of the area and the change you want. When we suggest a combination, we explain why and the cost of each.
How many sessions will I need?
It depends on the area, its condition, and the treatment used. We explain a plan at the first examination, then adjust the number of sessions and intervals according to your progress.
Can it hurt or cause bruising?
Depending on the treatment, pain, swelling, or bruising may occur, and heat-energy treatments carry risks such as burns. During your consultation, we explain expected reactions and how to care for them.
