Real ART-FAT awake liposuction and fat-dissolving results across the abdomen, thighs, arms, back, calves and face — performed personally by internal-medicine specialist Dr. Hye-woo Pyeon in Cheongdam. Every case is shown unretouched, at 3–6 months when the line is stable, with explicit written consent under Korea's Personal Information Protection Act (PIPA). Individual results vary; send your own photos for cases matching your body.
Every case shown received explicit written consent under Korea's Personal Information Protection Act — among the world's strictest medical privacy laws. Identities are protected through anonymized presentation.
A real patient's change — documented at ARTNER Cheongdam, Gangnam under Dr. Pyeon's personal care, photographed in the clinic's standardized studio before and at follow-up.

Representative before-and-after results from ARTNER Cheongdam's case files by area. Each shows a realistic ART-FAT or fat-dissolving outcome — final, stable results at 3–6 months post-procedure, not the swollen 2–4-week stage.
Stubborn lower-abdomen fat and mons pubis (FUPA) prominence — both common after pregnancy and resistant to diet or exercise.
Result: Combined abdomen + mons pubis contouring. Flat profile with a smooth pubic transition. Stable at 4 months.
Front-view focus on inner and outer thighs. A slimmer thigh line and a cleaner gap for fitted bottoms.
Result: Visibly slimmer thigh line by month 3–4. Skinny jeans fit comfortably.
Hip-buttock junction contouring — refining the transition between flank and buttock for cleaner curve definition.
Result: Smoother curve and improved jean fit. Photogenic at week 8.
Back-view focus on bra-line rolls and upper-back fat. A smooth back for backless and fitted tops.
Result: Bra-line bulge smoothed by week 6. Backless dresses fit cleanly.
Back-view flank refinement. A cleaner back silhouette without the over-the-jeans bulge.
Result: Back silhouette dramatically cleaner. Jeans fit comfortably at the waist.
Combined inner and outer thigh contouring (saddlebag area) for a slimmer overall thigh silhouette.
Result: Slimmer outer profile and a visible inner-thigh gap. Confident in shorts at month 3.
Showcase of ARTNER's signature ART-FAT thigh technique — refined contour rather than pure volume reduction.
Result: Refined thigh contour with smooth transitions. K-fashion fit goal achieved.
Posterior arm fat — a common concern for sleeveless tops and dresses. Side-view documentation.
Result: Defined arm contour. Sleeveless-confident at month 4.
Side-boob and bra-line fat ridge — visible bulge under tight tops. Single-area focused refinement.
Result: Smooth bra-line at month 2. Photographed at week 6.
Front-angle close-up of side and underarm fat refinement — a detail view of the same region.
Result: Smooth underarm-to-bra-line transition. Racerback tops fit cleanly.
Upper and mid-back fat with bra bulge — a common concern with age and posterior fat distribution.
Result: Posterior dramatically smoother. Bra fits flat at month 3.
Calf reduction for boots and a slim-leg goal — muscular calf with a subcutaneous fat layer.
Result: Calf circumference visibly reduced. Boot fit dramatically improved.
Inner-knee fat pad — visible when knees are together. A concern for skirts and dresses.
Result: Inner-knee contour smooth. Skirts fit comfortably. Recovery 3–5 days.
Body filler for contour enhancement — restoring volume to under-projected areas after primary liposuction.
Result: Natural volume restoration. Combined refinement after primary contouring.
ARTNER's signature ART-TUNE fat-dissolving injection — non-surgical refinement for small stubborn areas.
Result: Refined contour without surgery. Ideal for touch-ups or small targeted areas.
Double chin and lower-face fat refinement for a cleaner jawline and side profile.
Result: Sharper jawline definition. Looks refreshed without an obvious change.
Liposuction results are a timeline, not a moment. This is how ARTNER Cheongdam stages every case — and why we never publish a week-2 photo as a result.
| Stage after ART-FAT | What you see | What it means | ARTNER Cheongdam rule |
|---|---|---|---|
| Day 1–3 | Swelling peaks, bruising, area looks larger than before | Tumescent fluid + inflammation | Never photographed as a result |
| Week 2–4 | Bruises fading, lumpy or uneven feel, waistline visible from the front | Lymph fluid still draining | Interim only — judgment withheld |
| Month 2–3 | Line visible from side and back, skin tightening begins | Tissue settling | First comparison photo |
| Month 3–6 | Final contour, skin retracted | Stable result | Gallery standard — every case above is 3–6 months |
| Fat-dissolving injection | Change accumulates over 6 sessions; clothes fit from session 3 | Cells cleared gradually | Judged 4–6 weeks after the last session |
Same pose, same lighting, same distance — ARTNER Cheongdam photographs every patient in a standardized studio so international patients can compare honestly from home. Recovery timeline by week: Liposuction recovery timeline. Prices behind each case: Cheongdam price list — KRW, ex-VAT.
The public gallery shows cases with explicit consent. During consultation at ARTNER Cheongdam, Dr. Pyeon shares additional private cases matching your specific body profile, area and goals — with full PIPA confidentiality. Send photos from home and the Gangnam team returns matching cases before you fly.
Yes. Every case shown is a real ARTNER Cheongdam, Gangnam patient who gave explicit written consent for image use under Korea's Personal Information Protection Act (PIPA). Identities are protected through anonymized presentation, photos are unretouched, and all cases were performed personally by Dr. Pyeon.
Korean PIPA and the Medical Service Act set strict limits on publishing medical images, and ARTNER publishes only cases with explicit written consent. During consultation Dr. Pyeon shares additional private cases matching your body profile, area and goals — with full confidentiality.
Representative. Each case was chosen to show a realistic ART-FAT or fat-dissolving outcome for that area, not the most dramatic case on file. Individual results vary with anatomy, skin elasticity, weight stability and aftercare, and ARTNER Cheongdam will tell you where your case sits before you fly.
Long-term. Every gallery case is photographed at 3–6 months, when swelling has settled and skin has retracted. ARTNER Cheongdam does not publish day-3 or week-2 photos as results, because that stage is swollen and unfinished for everyone.
Swelling peaks at day 1–3, bruising fades over 2–4 weeks, the line appears from the side and back at 2–3 months and the final contour at about six months. The 2–4-week stage looks lumpy for everyone — judge at three months, not three weeks.
No. Same pose, same lighting, same distance in the clinic's standardized studio in Cheongdam, no editing. That is also why you can compare honestly from home during remote follow-up.
Yes. Send two or three photos of your area on WhatsApp and Dr. Pyeon's team in Gangnam sends matching private cases — same area, similar body type and skin — with a candidacy read and KRW estimate, within 24 hours.
Yes — roughly two in three ARTNER patients travel from abroad, and many gallery cases are international patients who completed follow-up remotely. Results are the same whether you are based in Seoul or fly in for a week.
Never without explicit written consent. Photos sent for consultation are seen only by the medical team, stored on secure clinic systems and used solely to plan your case.
Correct diagnosis of the fat (pocket, volume, loose skin or visceral), even extraction by an experienced hand, honest staging of large cases, skin elasticity, and stable weight afterwards. ARTNER Cheongdam controls the first three and tells you honestly about the last two.
Removed fat cells do not return. Remaining cells can enlarge if you gain significant weight, so results hold when weight is stable; fat does not "move" elsewhere. Skin changes with age independently of the procedure.
Yes. Several cases above are fat-dissolving or ART-TUNE outcomes; injection results are judged 4–6 weeks after the sixth session. Ask on WhatsApp for area-matched injection cases if you are considering the non-surgical route.
It is done under tumescent local anesthesia with light sedation only for large areas, and it does not limit the result: extraction per area is unlimited, and awake positioning lets the director check symmetry from several angles during the procedure.
