FAQ
Questions we actually hear in the clinic, grouped by treatment. For anything else, ask our AI chat.
01 Can I continue after the 4 weeks?
Yes. After 4 weeks we re-check weight and body composition; you can continue with the rebound-prevention program to maintain, or the weight-loss / plateau-breaking program for further loss. The next program is decided at the doctor's consultation.
02 Is an appetite-suppressant prescription included?
When taken as the package, a 4-week appetite-suppressant prescription is included. Whether and which medication is prescribed is decided by the doctor after checking medical history and current medications; the medicine itself is paid at the pharmacy.
03 Which of the four programs should I choose?
Choose one of four goals: weight loss, line make-up (body contour), rebound prevention, or plateau breaking. It is decided with the doctor at the first visit after reviewing weight, body composition and diet history; a first-visit consultation fee of 10,000 KRW applies.
04 How is it different from Wegovy?
Wegovy (semaglutide) acts on the GLP-1 receptor only, while Mounjaro (tirzepatide) acts on both GIP and GLP-1 receptors. Both are injected once a week; the doctor decides which suits you after reviewing weight, medical history and current medications. Please call ahead to confirm availability.
05 Can I get laser hair removal on the same day without a reservation?
Underarm and upper-lip hair removal are accepted on a walk-in, first-come basis without a reservation. Beard, body, and facial hair removal require a reservation. For same-day treatment on a first visit, please arrive by 6 PM on weekdays, as the consultation and numbing cream take about 30 minutes. Some days close earlier depending on the doctor's schedule, so please call 031-692-2789 before visiting.
06 How long does a session take?
Session time varies with the size of the area, but it often takes roughly 10-40 minutes. Larger areas can take longer, and the exact time depends on the area and extent.
07 Does the number of sessions differ by area?
Yes, it can. Hair thickness and density and skin thickness differ by area. Thick, dense areas such as the beard may need a longer plan, while broad areas such as the arms and legs also take skin condition into account. The actual number of sessions is decided after consultation based on your condition and can vary between individuals.
08 Which areas can be treated?
Many areas can be planned through consultation, including the face, upper lip, chin and sideburns, underarms, arms and legs, the bikini line and Brazilian area, and men's beard. Because hair characteristics and skin condition differ by area, whether and how to treat is decided after consultation based on your individual condition.
09 My underarms look dark even after shaving; will laser whiten them right away?
It should not be understood as a treatment that whitens instantly. Underarm darkness often results from a mix of the shadow of hair cross-sections, enlarged pores and pigment changes from repeated irritation, so the approach differs by cause. In some cases pigment care or skin-soothing care may be needed as well.
10 Does laser hair removal stop hair permanently?
Laser hair removal does not guarantee that hair will disappear forever. Over repeated sessions you can expect hair to gradually become thinner and less dense, but the duration and degree of response can vary with hormonal changes, genetics and hair characteristics. It is best approached as semi-permanent management of hair volume.
11 What are the types and costs of thread lifting?
12 When will I see the results of the procedure?
Immediate lifting effects can be seen right after the procedure, and elasticity improves as collagen is produced over time.
13 When will the results appear?
Changes can be felt immediately as collagen is replenished, and it settles more naturally over time.
14 How much pain is involved during the procedure?
