Body Contouring with Line Pharmacopuncture and K-Onda Micro Lifting

Why do certain areas such as the jawline, upper arms and flanks stay undefined even with consistent diet and exercise? In summer, when clothes get lighter, many more people come in for body contouring consultations because they are bothered by hidden flab and a sagging jawline. Dr. Park Se-hyuk of Department 3 at Saeron Korean Medicine Hospital explains the characteristics and care of each area, from the face to the body, focusing on the Acurex Line Pharmacopuncture and Signature Lifting offered at the hospital.

Acurex Line Pharmacopuncture, prepared from natural ingredients

Acurex Line Pharmacopuncture is a Korean medicine injection prepared from selected natural extracts. The fat-dissolving injection ingredient (DCA) commonly used in conventional medicine for localized slimming works by destroying fat tissue, and concerns have been raised that it can place a burden on the body after treatment, such as inflammation, pain and fibrosis.

The ingredients of Acurex Line Pharmacopuncture are natural components that act gently on the body. They work gently on fat cells to suppress the formation of lipids and help break them down, while also widening blood vessels and promoting circulation so that fat decreases naturally. As a result, you can worry less about inflammation or fibrosis after treatment and expect a relatively stable improvement in body lines.

The comparison data above present results in which Acurex Line Pharmacopuncture reduced fat weight without inflammation at the injection site or hardening, compared with DCA. However, actual responses may vary from person to person.

How often and how many times is Line Pharmacopuncture given?

Because the ingredients are gentle and place relatively little burden on the body, treatment can even be done daily, but twice a week is usually recommended, considering the cycle of cell regeneration and circulation. It can be applied to any area from the face to the body, and although results vary between individuals, we recommend consistently receiving 5 to 10 or more sessions per area for a satisfying change in body lines.

Signature Lifting, using microwave energy

Signature Lifting is a treatment that uses microwave energy and works on the same principle as ONDA lifting, which is familiar to people interested in lifting. It is applied not only to the face but also to body areas such as the abdomen.

Microwave energy reaches deep into the subcutaneous fat layer to help reduce fat cells, and at the same time stimulates collagen synthesis in the dermis to improve skin elasticity. Another advantage of Signature Lifting is that it is relatively painless, so it can be received comfortably.

Why combine Line Pharmacopuncture and Signature Lifting

Saeron Korean Medicine Hospital offers a program that combines the two treatments. By raising overall firmness with Signature Lifting and refining contours with Line Pharmacopuncture, you can expect both restored elasticity and reduced size.

Body contouring by area: which area concerns you?

If there is an area that stays undefined despite the same effort, you need a choice that suits that area and your concern.

• Facial line (V-line, double chin): A double chin and sagging cheeks can make the face look bigger and the impression duller. Line Pharmacopuncture and Signature Lifting help stagnant circulation under the chin and promote the removal of waste, helping you regain a hidden jawline and a smooth V-line.
• Upper body line (upper arms, trapezius): These are the first areas people notice when you wear sleeveless or light clothing. We gently loosen and refine the sagging flesh under the upper arms that spoils how clothes fit and the trapezius muscles that have become hard and raised from stress, aiming for a light upper body line that makes the neck look longer.
• Lower body and abdominal line (abdomen, love handles, thighs): These are the areas where fat accumulates most easily with a sedentary lifestyle. We aim for a firm body line by improving a sagging abdomen, love handles on the flanks, and cellulite and swelling on the inner and outer thighs where saddlebags are a concern.

Program composition depends on your goal

The program is combined differently depending on your body type and goal.

The combination of Signature Lifting and Line Pharmacopuncture alone can be expected to reduce swelling and add firmness for smoother lines. If you also want to lose weight, you can consider a 3-day detox course that helps the body clear waste, or Slim Capsules or Slim Pills that help control appetite and break down body fat, together with line treatments. When treatments and herbal care are combined, you can expect them to complement each other in weight management.

Summary

• The key to body contouring is not losing weight but how safely and which areas you refine.
• Line Pharmacopuncture and Signature Lifting are combined one-to-one to suit your skin thickness and body type.
• Temporary bruising or swelling may occur after treatment, so it is important to proceed after a thorough consultation with the medical team.
