I got a Laricut V injection at Suwon Dermatology and got rid of my cheek fat.
One day, when I was increasingly self-conscious about my cheeks, I happened to look in the mirror and was shocked. My face was plumper than usual, and my cheeks, in particular, looked noticeably swollen. I'd heard that my youthful appearance made me look younger, but the fact that my nasolabial folds were more prominent wasn't a welcome change.
I felt like I couldn't just leave it like this, so I started looking for a way to refine my facial contours. Surgery was too burdensome, and I needed a procedure that wouldn't significantly disrupt my daily life.
What I discovered while researching was a facial fat-dissolving injection called Laricut V. The claim that it reduces not only the size of fat cells but also their number caught my attention. I'd heard that the number of fat cells usually remains constant as we reach adulthood, but this one was a little different.
As my curiosity grew, I visited a dermatologist. What surprised me was that the director personally conducted the consultation. He kindly explained each area of concern, and I was impressed by his positive assessment of my condition without overtreating.
However, I was concerned about the prominent nasolabial folds, so I spoke honestly about it. Then, the doctor suggested that the Laricut V injection would be a good option, and helped me get started right away.
Before the procedure, the doctor said they wouldn't generally use anesthesia, but since I was scared, they allowed me to apply anesthetic cream. Thanks to this, I didn't feel much pain, and the procedure was over quickly. Immediately after, my face felt swollen, and my cheekbones actually swelled. The hospital also advised me that the swelling would subside in two to three days.
After a day or two, the swelling gradually subsided, and after about a week, I noticed a slight difference in the contours of my face. It wasn't a dramatic change yet, but I'm sure it will get lighter as time goes on.
For those who don't want a major procedure like liposuction but are concerned about facial fat, the Laricut V injection seems like a reasonable option. After the procedure, I was able to go about my daily life without any problems, and there was minimal pain or discomfort.
I'm still observing the progress, but for a first experience, I'm quite satisfied. This experience has reaffirmed my belief that even a simple procedure like this can be a viable alternative when you're hesitant about surgery.

- 01CommentsOndari Lifting features a powerful cooling system integrated into the handpiece itself, so there is virtually no pain or heat during the procedure. Since the sensation is more of a warm heat rather than a tingling sensation, many people receive the treatment comfortably without anesthetic cream. It is also a highly satisfying procedure for defining the double chin and deep cheek lines.160026.10.29
- 02CommentsRather than mixing up various procedures from the start, I think it would be better to start with just the one area you are most concerned about. I would probably start by consulting about the part that bothers me the most when I look in the mirror.200026.10.29
- 03CommentsOnda Lifting is highly effective for tightening deep cheek fat and dull jawlines! Onda uses two handpieces: the deep layer handpiece breaks down and reduces unnecessary fat cells, while the shallow layer handpiece regenerates collagen in sagging skin to provide a firm, tightened lift. Thanks to this, it not only improves skin elasticity but also reduces fat in sagging deep cheeks and slims down the jawline. If you are concerned about the bulging lines on the lower part of your face, you can look forward to a light and smooth line with Onda Lifting!180026.10.29
- 01CommentsI also looked for lifting creams before getting a consultation. I could definitely feel the hydration when I applied them, but I didn't really notice any significant improvement in my pores. However, since consistently moisturizing and taking good care of your skin's condition through sun protection helps, I think it would be a good idea to start with home care rather than expecting dramatic results.500026.10.18
- 02CommentsRadiofrequency or ultrasound lifting is a procedure you can comfortably receive at any time, largely regardless of the season. However, during the summer, your skin is easily irritated by sweat and strong UV rays, so you need to pay extra attention to soothing and sun protection. Conversely, in winter, managing dryness is essential, so you must provide thorough moisturizing care. Rather than focusing on the season, I recommend getting the treatment on a weekend or during a break when you have no important schedules.464026.10.23
- 03CommentsI think this is a perfectly understandable concern you might have while on your diet. When you hit a plateau, slightly adjusting your usual diet or adding light strength training to boost your basal metabolic rate are good solutions. I hope you don't give up and continue with your healthy routine!1495026.10.26
- 01CommentsTune Face allows for precise control of energy depth, making it suitable even for those with less cheek volume. Its major advantage is that it delivers high-frequency elasticity to the necessary areas while minimizing concerns about cheek hollowing. Satisfaction is high as you can expect both overall skin texture improvement and tightening effects. I hope this helps with your decision regarding the procedure.1942026.09.30
- 02CommentsI see you were very curious about the downtime for the Onda Lifting procedure due to concerns regarding jawline elasticity. While individual differences exist, the Onda Lifting generally causes minimal bruising or swelling, so only slight redness usually occurs on the day of the procedure. You can apply makeup and resume your daily activities without any issues the following day, so please feel free to schedule a consultation.781026.10.09
- 03CommentsIf it were me, I would start by getting the procedure that is your top priority. If your biggest concern is sagging facial contours, I would recommend Ultherapy; if you are more concerned about dull skin, fine lines, or loss of elasticity, I would suggest consulting about Thermage first. Then, observe the results for about two months and proceed with treatments to address any remaining issues. Rather than getting both procedures at once, I think it is better to try one first, taking your skin condition into account!932126.10.21
