RE:BERRY Myeongdong offers targeted fat dissolving injection using deoxycholic acid and phosphatidylcholine formulations to permanently destroy localized fat deposits. Our Aesthetic Medicine Specialists treat double chin, jowls, bra fat, and other stubborn areas without surgery or general anesthesia. The Double Chin All-Kill Package combines Goop 10cc + Inmode Fit + Berry Slim 10cc for comprehensive submental fat elimination at ₩1,150,000.
What Is Fat Dissolving Injection at RE:BERRY Myeongdong?
Fat dissolving injection at RE:BERRY Myeongdong uses deoxycholic acid (Goop 10cc) to permanently destroy subcutaneous fat cells in the double chin, jowls, and body areas, with the Double Chin All-Kill Package priced at ₩1,150,000 at RE:BERRY Myeongdong Seoul, delivering visible contouring results within 4-6 weeks.
Fat dissolving injection — medically known as injection lipolysis — works by introducing cytolytic compounds directly into subcutaneous fat deposits. The active agents rupture adipocyte cell membranes, releasing stored triglycerides that the body’s lymphatic system naturally metabolizes and eliminates over 4-8 weeks. Once destroyed, fat cells do not regenerate, making the results effectively permanent as long as you maintain your weight. At RE:BERRY Myeongdong, Dr. Seung-Jae Baek uses a combination approach for fat dissolving injection: Goop (deoxycholic acid compound) for primary fat cell destruction, followed by Inmode Fit for skin tightening, and Berry Slim for metabolic acceleration. This triple-action protocol ensures both fat volume reduction and smooth skin contour without the dimpling or irregularities that can occur with single-agent treatments. For patients whose submental fullness is partly muscular rather than fatty, combining fat dissolving injection with face slimming injection (masseter Botox) creates the most comprehensive jawline transformation. Fat dissolving injection also pairs well with Onda body contouring for larger treatment areas on the body.

How Fat Dissolving Injection Works at RE:BERRY Myeongdong
Our four-step fat dissolving injection protocol ensures safe, effective, and even fat reduction in the target area.
Fat Assessment & Treatment Planning
Dr. Seung-Jae Baek evaluates the target area by pinching the subcutaneous fat layer to measure thickness and distribution. For double chin fat dissolving injection, he assesses whether the submental fullness is primarily fat, loose skin, or platysmal banding — each requiring different treatment strategies. Ultrasound measurement may be used for precise fat thickness assessment. The doctor creates a customized treatment map marking injection zones and determines the appropriate volume of Goop compound for your specific fat deposit. Areas with less than 1cm pinchable fat may be better suited to lifting treatments rather than fat dissolving injection.
Topical Numbing & Injection Grid Marking
A topical anesthetic cream is applied to the treatment area for 15-20 minutes. While the numbing takes effect, the doctor marks a precise injection grid with 1-1.5cm spacing across the fat deposit. This grid ensures even distribution of the fat dissolving agent, preventing lumps or uneven contour. For the double chin area, the grid typically covers a 6x8cm zone beneath the mandible, requiring 20-30 micro-injections of Goop compound. The grid pattern is critical for achieving smooth, natural results from fat dissolving injection.
Goop Fat Dissolving Injection Administration
Using a 30G needle, the doctor delivers 0.2-0.4cc of Goop compound per injection point, directly into the subcutaneous fat layer at a depth of 6-10mm. The deoxycholic acid in Goop disrupts adipocyte cell membranes through cytolysis — the same bile acid your liver naturally produces to digest dietary fat. Each injection creates a controlled inflammatory response localized to the fat layer. For the Double Chin All-Kill Package, 10cc of Goop is administered across the submental area in a single session, followed immediately by Inmode Fit radiofrequency for dermal tightening and Berry Slim 10cc to accelerate fat metabolism.
Post-Treatment Care & Recovery
After your fat dissolving injection at RE:BERRY Myeongdong, expect localized swelling, warmth, and mild tenderness in the treated area — these are normal signs that the deoxycholic acid is actively destroying fat cells. Swelling peaks at day 2-3 and resolves over 5-10 days. Apply cold compresses for the first 24 hours. Avoid alcohol, intense exercise, and saunas for 48 hours. The destroyed fat cells are gradually cleared by your lymphatic system over 4-8 weeks. A follow-up session is typically scheduled 4-6 weeks later to assess results and determine if additional fat dissolving injection is needed.
What to Expect from Fat Dissolving Injection at RE:BERRY Myeongdong
- Permanent Fat Cell Destruction: Once destroyed by fat dissolving injection, adipocytes do not regenerate. Results are permanent as long as you maintain a stable weight.
- No Surgery, No Scars: Fat dissolving injection requires only micro-needle entry points — no incisions, no sutures, no surgical scars. The entire treatment takes 30-45 minutes.
- Targeted Precision: Unlike diet and exercise that reduce fat systemically, fat dissolving injection at RE:BERRY Myeongdong targets specific problem areas that resist weight loss — double chin, jowls, bra fat, and love handles.
- Minimal Downtime: Social downtime is 3-5 days due to swelling. You can work and travel during recovery. No compression garments or bandages required.
- Combination Protocol: The Double Chin All-Kill Package combines fat dissolving injection with RF skin tightening and metabolic acceleration for comprehensive results that single-agent treatments cannot match.
| Timeline | What to Expect |
|---|---|
| Day 1-3 | Significant swelling, warmth, and tenderness at injection site. This is the active fat destruction phase. Cold compresses help. |
| Day 4-7 | Swelling gradually subsides. Mild firmness and numbness may persist. Fat cell contents begin draining into lymphatic system. |
| Week 2-3 | Most swelling resolved. Treatment area may feel slightly firm. No visible fat reduction yet — metabolic processing ongoing. |
| Week 4-6 | Visible fat reduction begins. Double chin area noticeably smaller. Jawline definition improves from profile view. |
| Week 6-8 | Optimal single-session results visible. Assessment appointment to determine if additional fat dissolving injection sessions are needed. |
| Month 3-6 | Final results after 2-3 sessions. Up to 20-30% fat volume reduction per treatment area. Results are permanent with weight maintenance. |

The Science Behind Fat Dissolving Injection
Peer-reviewed research supporting deoxycholic acid and phosphatidylcholine injection lipolysis at RE:BERRY Myeongdong.
Mechanism of Deoxycholic Acid in Fat Dissolution
Deoxycholic acid is a naturally occurring bile acid produced by the liver to emulsify dietary fat during digestion. When injected directly into subcutaneous adipose tissue, deoxycholic acid disrupts adipocyte cell membranes through a cytolytic mechanism — the hydrophobic face of the bile acid molecule integrates into the phospholipid bilayer of fat cell membranes, creating pores that lead to cell lysis and death. This process is highly selective for adipocytes because their membranes contain a high proportion of cholesterol, making them more susceptible to bile acid disruption than fibroblasts, endothelial cells, or keratinocytes in the surrounding tissue. The released intracellular lipids trigger a local inflammatory response that recruits macrophages to phagocytose cellular debris and transport the freed fatty acids to the liver for metabolic processing. This adipocytolytic cascade permanently reduces fat volume in the treated area because mature adipocytes do not regenerate once destroyed.
Clinical Evidence for Submental Fat Reduction
The REFINE-1 and REFINE-2 pivotal trials established the clinical efficacy of injectable deoxycholic acid for submental fat reduction. Humphrey et al. (2016) reported that 70.5% of patients receiving deoxycholic acid injections achieved at least a 1-grade improvement on the Clinician-Reported Submental Fat Rating Scale (CR-SMFRS) after up to 6 treatment sessions, compared to 18.6% in the placebo group. The studies demonstrated that each injection session permanently destroyed a measurable percentage of submental adipocytes, with cumulative fat volume reduction of 20-30% across 2-3 sessions. Adverse events were largely limited to expected injection-site reactions: swelling (87.1%), bruising (66.3%), pain (68.8%), and numbness (61.5%), with the vast majority resolving within 7-14 days. No serious adverse events related to the study drug were reported across both trials.
Combination Protocols: Fat Dissolving with Skin Tightening
Recent research has highlighted the importance of combining fat dissolving injection with skin tightening modalities to achieve optimal aesthetic outcomes. Boisnic et al. (2014) demonstrated that radiofrequency energy applied after adipocyte reduction significantly improves skin elasticity and prevents the contour irregularities associated with fat volume loss alone. The thermal effect of RF devices like Inmode stimulates neocollagenesis in the dermis and subcutaneous fibrous septae, producing a firming effect that complements the fat reduction. This combination approach — used in RE:BERRY Myeongdong’s Double Chin All-Kill Package — addresses the common concern that fat dissolving injection alone may leave redundant skin in patients with poor skin elasticity, particularly those over age 40 or with photodamaged skin.

Fat dissolving injection uses chemical cytolysis (deoxycholic acid) injected directly into fat, while CoolSculpting uses controlled cooling applied externally. Fat dissolving injection at RE:BERRY Myeongdong is more precise for small areas like the double chin, while CoolSculpting works better for larger body areas. For medium areas, fat freezing may also be an option. Both permanently destroy fat cells.
Fat dissolving injection at RE:BERRY Myeongdong is ideal for moderate localized fat deposits (1-3cm thickness) with no surgical risk and 3-5 days social downtime. Liposuction removes larger volumes in a single surgical session but requires general anesthesia, incisions, and 1-2 weeks recovery. For non-surgical large-area fat reduction, consider Onda body contouring instead.
Yes, though we recommend waiting 48-72 hours for peak swelling to subside before flying. Fat dissolving injection swelling peaks at day 2-3 at RE:BERRY Myeongdong. If flying within 24 hours is necessary, the treatment is still safe — swelling is cosmetic, not medical.
