The secret behind stubborn fat that won’t go away with dieting

When we lose weight, it may seem as if body fat is burned evenly throughout the body, but in reality, that is not the case. Areas where fat is especially difficult to lose often have different receptor distributions in fat cells or poor blood circulation.

To put it simply, the fat in our body is stored in several warehouses, and while some warehouses have doors that open actively, others are like they are locked with rusty padlocks.

In particular, the inner thighs, upper arms, and sides that many women worry about tend to have a relatively high distribution of receptors that interfere with fat breakdown, so improvement may be slow with exercise alone.

In this state, forcing yourself to starve or repeatedly doing excessive exercise can actually reduce skin elasticity or make the face lose fat only, giving a prematurely aged appearance, so caution is needed.

Therefore, a detailed approach is needed that selectively stimulates fat cells in the concern area to help them be eliminated, and this is exactly why many people consider fat-dissolving injections.

Fat-dissolving injection process

At Cheongdam Dermatology, we do not focus only on simply injecting medication. The value we consider most important is each patient’s body balance and safety.

We do not just look with our eyes; we also go through a process of carefully examining the thickness of fat in the area, the amount of muscle, and skin elasticity.

Even in the same area, the firmness of fat and the circulation status differ from person to person, so a uniform procedure that ignores this is unlikely to produce satisfactory results.

By excluding or minimizing steroid ingredients, we reduce concerns about adverse reactions and design the treatment so that, beyond simply reducing the size of fat cells, the broken-down fat can be smoothly eliminated through lymphatic circulation.

The procedure is carried out after sterilization and through a precise design process, and we use needles equipped with microfilters to do our best to reduce pain and bruising.

After the procedure, aftercare that supports circulation is also performed to help the broken-down fat leave the body well. All of these steps are carefully managed so that the patient can feel comfortable.

Management methods

Fat-dissolving injections can be a great helper in refining the lines of concern areas, but when patients make everyday efforts after the procedure, the positive changes become even greater.

Adequate water intake
The broken-down fat residue is eliminated through urine or sweat, and drinking water is like widening the path for waste to be washed away.
For 2 to 3 days immediately after the procedure
It is recommended to drink more than 2 liters of lukewarm water a day, little by little and frequently. Water at a temperature similar to body temperature is more effective for circulation than cold water.

In addition, light walking is recommended on the day of the procedure. Intense exercise may irritate the treatment area, but walking on flat ground for about 20 to 30 minutes helps increase blood flow and supports the diffusion and elimination of the ingredients.

Alcohol and smoking can delay recovery in the treated area and trigger inflammatory reactions, so avoiding them for at least about a week is a wise choice for improving the line.

Lastly, please do not press or stimulate the treatment area strongly with your hands, and please make sure to understand and follow the precautions given by the medical staff.

An accurate diagnosis is the first step toward creating a beautiful line. Rather than blindly following trendy procedures, we recommend starting with a consultation at a place that can accurately understand your body condition.
