Body Program in Cheongdam & Apgujeong, Seoul

What is the Body Program?

Body concerns are as individual as facial ones. Some people are bothered by a small area of stubborn fat that does not respond to diet or training. Others have the opposite problem: a hollow or flat area where they would like more shape. Many notice that skin on the abdomen, arms or thighs has become looser, particularly after weight change or with age.

The Body Program groups Doje's body treatments so that each of these concerns can be matched to an appropriate tool: body filler for volume and shape, body injections for targeted injectable care, and Body ONDA, a microwave-based contouring device, for localised fat and tissue firmness. As with every Doje plan, components are included only where they make a difference.

How Doje Clinic approaches the body

A body consultation begins with a simple question: is the issue too much, too little, or too loose? Dr. Byun Jeik, a surgery specialist trained at Seoul National University Hospital, examines the area standing and, where relevant, seated, assessing the thickness of the fat layer, the quality and elasticity of the skin and the underlying shape.

• Too much – localised fat: Body ONDA uses microwave energy designed to act on the fat layer while the skin surface is cooled, without incisions.
• Too little – volume or shape: body filler can add contour to selected areas, planned conservatively for natural proportion.
• Targeted concerns: body injections are chosen for specific purposes, explained at consultation.
• Too loose – skin laxity: energy-based firming may help mild laxity; marked excess skin is honestly beyond non-surgical treatment.

Body treatments are often planned in sessions, so the program can be shaped around how long you are in Seoul or how often you can return.

Who it suits — and who it doesn't

• Suits people at a stable weight with a specific area of stubborn fat or a wish for refined contour.
• Suits those who want non-surgical body care with limited interruption to daily life.
• Suits patients combining face treatments with a body concern in the same visit.
• Not a weight-loss method: it refines shape rather than reducing overall body weight.
• Not suitable during pregnancy or breastfeeding, over metal implants or active skin conditions in the area, or with some medical conditions; these are reviewed at consultation.
• Significant loose skin after major weight loss may need a surgical opinion.

What to expect, step by step

1. Consultation: discussion of goals, medical history and examination of each area.
2. Plan: which component suits each area, how many sessions are typical and the order of treatment.
3. Treatment: Body ONDA sessions are non-invasive; filler and injections use fine needles or cannulas with local comfort measures.
4. Between sessions: changes from energy treatments tend to develop over weeks, so sessions are spaced accordingly.
5. Review: progress is checked and the plan adjusted rather than repeated automatically.

Recovery and aftercare

After Body ONDA, warmth, redness or tenderness in the treated area is common and typically settles within days. After body filler or injections, swelling, tenderness or bruising at injection points may last several days. Wear comfortable clothing, keep the area clean, avoid saunas and very intense exercise for the first days and follow any area-specific advice you are given. Staying well hydrated and keeping a stable weight helps preserve contour changes.

Cost

The fee depends on the areas treated, the components chosen and the number of sessions. It is quoted after your 1:1 consultation; ask for a written quote. Korean non-covered (비급여) aesthetic fees are set per plan.

Frequently asked questions

What does Body ONDA do?

Body ONDA is a microwave-based contouring treatment aimed at localised fat and tissue firmness, performed without incisions.

Is the Body Program a weight-loss treatment?

No. It refines contour in specific areas and works best for people already at a stable weight.

How many sessions will I need?

It depends on the area and the component. Energy treatments are often planned as a course; this is set at consultation.

Can I combine body and face treatments?

Often yes. Many patients plan a face program and a body concern in the same visit to Seoul.

Is there downtime?

Usually limited: tenderness, redness or bruising may last a few days, depending on the treatment.
