Concept-Driven Diet: If You Want Weight Loss Without Regain

Hello, this is Balance Lab Plastic Surgery.

How is everyone managing their diet?

When speaking with clients who visit Balance Lab Plastic Surgery for consultations, there are many who say, “I succeeded in losing weight through dieting, but I regained it because of rebound weight gain.”

If you lost weight, why did it come back? The reason is that you may have forced yourself to lose weight using a method that is not right for you, rather than a diet approach suited to your own body.

When dieting, it is good to reach your target weight, but it is also important to maintain the loss.

For those of you saying,

“I only eat a little, but the weight doesn’t come off easily.”

“I lost up to 5 kg quickly, but nothing beyond that seems to come off.”

“I exercise and control my meals, but I’m not losing weight.”

please pay close attention from here on!

As our bodies age, metabolism naturally slows down. For what we eat to be converted into energy smoothly, metabolism needs to function well, and unnecessary fat should not accumulate.

As we get older, metabolism gradually declines, and if you continue dieting with the wrong methods, your body may shift into a state where metabolism is reduced.

In such cases, even if you lose weight through intense exercise and strict dieting, you may find that rebound weight gain comes easily.

The Concept-Driven Diet program offered at Balance Lab identifies the reasons each person gains weight through a Vita Balancing diagnostic test and helps provide a weight-loss strategy suited to those findings.

This program is customized one-on-one by Internal Medicine Specialist and Chief Director Kang Min-gu, with each person’s lifestyle, eating habits, and body fat amount taken into consideration to design a personalized diet program.

The Concept-Driven Diet program may vary slightly depending on the patient’s test results.

[ Concept-Driven Diet ]

Week 1 / Week 3 - Internal medicine consultation and FDA-approved obesity medication prescription + diet infusion

Week 2 / Week 4 - Internal medicine consultation and FDA-approved obesity medication prescription + diet infusion + device management

This is how the program is carried out, and let’s briefly look at the FDA-approved obesity medication prescription, device management, and diet infusion included in the program.

[ FDA-approved obesity medication ]

At Balance Lab, we do not use phentermine monotherapy, which has a high frequency of side effects, or medications such as phendimetrazine.

Depending on the test results, only FDA-approved obesity medications are prescribed to match each person’s health condition, so there is no need to worry about side effects.

[ Diet infusion ]

The diet infusion offered at Balance Lab is formulated with arginine as the main ingredient, along with vitamin B5 and carnitine, and includes several ingredients that help with fat metabolism.

Arginine is a type of amino acid that helps the body function properly, and it generally supports muscle building by promoting cell regeneration or helps with body fat reduction by stimulating mitochondrial biosynthesis.

Vitamin B5 is an ingredient that helps strengthen the immune system, maintain skin health, and relieve stress.

When carnitine is deficient in our body, fat cannot be converted into energy and instead accumulates in the body, leading to cellulite formation, so this is an ingredient that should be sufficiently supplied to the body. Carnitine helps inhibit blood sugar spikes, reduce body fat, support regular bowel movements, and reduce fatigue.

In addition to arginine, vitamin B5, and carnitine, the diet infusion is combined with various other ingredients, helping with weight loss, body fat reduction, and the prevention of rebound weight gain.

These are reviews from people who actually completed the Concept-Driven Diet program and saw reductions in body fat, body weight, and visceral fat. It is a Concept-Driven Diet program that reduces body weight, body fat, and visceral fat while preserving muscle mass.

Lastly, let us introduce the Balance Lab Plastic Surgery contouring procedures that can create greater synergy when performed together with the Concept-Driven Diet!

[ Infit fat-dissolving injection ]

This is Balance Lab’s own fat-dissolving injection that destroys fat cells and eliminates them from the body. The Infit fat-dissolving injection does not contain PPC or steroids, which are ingredients that may cause side effects, and is recommended for those whose troublesome stubborn fat areas are relatively small or who have some time available for contouring those areas.

[ Outfit fat extraction injection ]

This is an extraction injection that uses a thin, long, ultra-fine cannula with a rounded tip, custom-made by our clinic, to remove only the fat from the desired area. The Outfit fat extraction injection is recommended for those who wanted liposuction to address stubborn fat but were concerned about incisions or scars.

At Balance Lab Plastic Surgery, one internal medicine specialist and two plastic surgery specialists work together in a cooperative system, where the plastic surgery specialists create external beauty and the internal medicine specialist also takes care of your health so that beauty can be reflected inside as well.
