Mini-Liposuction Blog Post by Dr. Ko Na Young

Here is a blog post written by Hwagok branch head dermatologist Dr. Ko Na Young. The original post, written in Korean, can be read by clicking here.

Ever since I was young, I was always concerned about the extra fat in my thighs. My calves were not so bad after I started to work out in my twenties. My thighs, on the other hand, would not budge no matter how hard I exercised. All of the clothes I bought had to fit my thighs more than any other area, and I couldn't wear pencil skirts because they would feel so uncomfortably tight, so I had to stick to flared skirts.

Then, about 5-6 years ago, I extracted some fat from my thighs for a fat grafting procedure. Since then I have seen some size reduction that has been maintained until now. I didn't remove a tremendous amount of fat like traditional liposuction (over 2000 cc) - it was just about 150-200 cc from both thighs, but it was still very effective in reducing the size of my thighs.

Areas such as the thighs and upper arms do not slim down so easily, even with the most intense workouts. And when you gain weight, those areas are probably the first to start plumping up.

For patients who have the same problem as I had just mentioned, Renewme Skin Clinic Mini-Liposuction is the perfect combination of the effects of liposuction as well as the advantages of non-surgical obesity treatments. This procedure applies to all areas including the thighs, abdomen, arms, underarms and more.

Mini-Liposuction is a new concept of fat removal procedures, that directly extracts fat that the patient can confirm with his/her own two eyes.

The advantages of mini-liposuction are that:

  • It has the effects of liposuction
  • But doesn't require sedation or general anesthesia
  • The procedure time is only about 30 minutes
  • There is no downtime and no need of compressure clothing
  • And fat is removed directly, which means no yo-yo effects.

Yesterday, a friend of mine visited the clinic for this mini-liposuction procedure. She was determined to treat her abdomen area, which had been bugging her for many years.

1. First I measured her size and designed the treatment area.



2. Then I disinfected the treatment area, injected the anesthetic solution, and removed the fat.
When I asked her how much pain she felt, she made everyone laugh by responding "it's much less painful than doing crunches!" But actually, you know, hundreds of crunches still wouldn't remove that extra layer of fat.


3. Once the treatment is finished, I show the extracted fat to the patient. I ended up extracting way more than the agreed 4 bottles (50 cc per bottle) and filled up a whole 500 cc bowl. It was an extra service for my friend, who had agreed to let me use her photos for this blog.



My friend was very satisfied when she saw how much fat had been removed! It was less painful than she had expected, much less than a hard workout.

Patients may experience mild swelling immediately after the procedure; this goes down within 3-4 days and results will start to show after about a week.
