Body Contouring HIFU (e.g., Abdomen, Thighs) Cost in Korea
Body Contouring HIFU treatments use High-Intensity Focused Ultrasound to target and break down stubborn fat deposits in areas such as the abdomen, thighs, upper arms, and flanks. This non-invasive technology heats the deeper layers of fat tissue, stimulating fat breakdown and skin tightening without the need for surgery or downtime. In Korea, this procedure is widely available at aesthetic clinics and is favored for its precision, safety, and visible slimming effects, often used as an alternative to liposuction for mild to moderate body sculpting.
