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.

- 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.390026.10.18
- 02CommentsI think it would be better to make a decision after comprehensively considering your current skin elasticity, degree of sagging, and skin thickness, rather than just your age. Rather than starting immediately, it would be advisable to get a thorough consultation to determine if the procedure is necessary and to check for potential side effects or the recovery period before making a choice.232126.10.23
- 03CommentsIt does look a bit different in the photos. All Tight is a lifting procedure worth considering if you are concerned about your facial contours or skin elasticity. All Tight is introduced as a procedure with relatively low pain and recovery burden. While you may feel a tightening sensation immediately after the procedure, immediate changes do not equate to long-lasting effects. The duration of the results varies depending on skin condition and treatment conditions, and evidence is still limited to confirm the long-term effects unique to All Tight. Swelling, redness, or a sensation of heat may occur temporarily, but this varies from person to person. Before the procedure, it is advisable to check your skin thickness, facial fat volume, and degree of sagging, and to consult about potential side effects. If you want to naturally refine your facial contours, it is important to determine the energy level and treatment scope that suit your skin condition, rather than unconditionally choosing a strong lifting procedure.490026.10.17
- 01CommentsIf 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!842126.10.21

- 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.1892026.09.30

- 03CommentsI 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.721026.10.09
