Double chin fat dissolving injection in Cheongdam —
the no-downtime route to a jawline in Gangnam.
The under-chin pad is the single most-treated area with the ARTNER Injection in Cheongdam, Gangnam, and for good reason: no incisions, no chin band, no recovery, and you can fly home the same day. Six sessions from ₩1,200,000 build the jawline over two to three months. Where the pad holds real volume, awake chin liposuction does more in one session — and we say which yours is at the consultation.
If you have one area that bothers you and a few days in Seoul, this is usually the treatment that fits. It is also the one where the choice between injection and liposuction is closest, so it is worth understanding where the line falls.
You want a sharper jawline without surgery or downtime.
- You have a soft pad under the chin that diet has not touched.
- You cannot take time off for a surgical recovery.
- You have three days in Seoul and want to start something.
- You are worried about scars or a chin band.
- You are unsure whether it is fat, skin or a short chin.

Injection or chin liposuction — side by side
Both are performed at ARTNER Cheongdam by the director. The choice comes down to how much volume is there.
| Fat dissolving injection | Awake chin liposuction | |
|---|---|---|
| Best for | A soft, moderate under-chin pad | A fuller pad with real volume |
| Sessions | Six, spaced weeks apart | One |
| Downtime | None — fly the same day | 3–5 days; chin band at night |
| Days in Seoul | 1–2 per visit | 5–7 |
| Incisions | None | One tiny access point under the chin |
| Jawline visible | Across the course, 2–3 months | 4–8 weeks, final at 3 months |
| Price in Cheongdam | From ₩1,200,000 (course) | From ₩1,190,000 (one area) |
Why the chin suits the injection so well
The submental pad is usually a small, soft, well-defined pocket sitting in front of the platysma — exactly the tissue the ARTNER formulation is designed for. The area is small enough that a course clears it, and the skin over it is generally elastic enough to follow.
Practically, it also has no downtime: a session takes minutes in Cheongdam, you can fly the same day, and there is nothing to hide beyond mild swelling for two to three days.
Session rules: alcohol and exercise after an injection.
When chin liposuction is the better answer
When the pad is full rather than soft. One awake session under the chin removes what six injection sessions cannot, in a single visit, with a tiny access point that fades — and it is the same price band per area.
ARTNER Cheongdam says this at consultation rather than selling the softer-sounding option. Six sessions on real volume disappoints and costs more than the surgical route it should have been.

When it is not fat at all
A short or receding chin creates the look of a double chin with very little fat present — removing what is there improves it, but projection is the real issue, and chin filler in Cheongdam addresses that. Loose skin under the jaw needs tightening; taking fat out from under lax skin can make it look emptier.
Platysma banding — vertical cords in the neck — becomes more visible once fat over it is reduced. That is anatomy, not a complication, and ARTNER Cheongdam screens for it before starting.

What a session in Cheongdam actually involves
Numbing cream, then a series of fine injections across the marked pad — a few minutes in the chair. Mild swelling and tenderness for two to three days, no dressing, no band, and back to normal immediately.
Do not press or massage the area for 24 hours, skip alcohol for two to three days, and avoid saunas for about a week. That is the whole aftercare list.
How the jawline appears across the course
Nothing dramatic after session one — that is the honest expectation. The change accumulates: most patients notice the profile changing around sessions three to four, and the jawline reads properly at two to three months from the start.
ARTNER Cheongdam photographs in a standardised setup at the start and reviews progress on WhatsApp between trips, so the comparison is fair rather than from memory.

Fitting the course around trips to Seoul
Most international patients do two or three sessions per visit to Cheongdam and complete the course on a later trip. Longer gaps slow the timeline but do not reset it — cleared fat cells stay cleared while your weight is stable.
A face slimming program combining the injection with jawline work is also available from ₩49,000, which suits patients who want the whole lower face rather than the pad alone.

In short — The under-chin pad is the ideal fat dissolving injection area in Cheongdam, Gangnam: no incisions, no band, no downtime, six sessions from ₩1,200,000 with the jawline reading at two to three months. Where the pad holds real volume, awake chin liposuction does more in one session — and a short chin, loose skin or platysma banding are different problems entirely.

The chin is where the injection earns its reputation. A soft pad, elastic skin, a patient with three days in Seoul — that combination is exactly what this treatment is for. A full pad is not, and I say so.

Fat dissolving injection questions answered by ARTNER Cheongdam, Gangnam.
Yes — the submental pad is the most-treated injection area at ARTNER Cheongdam, Gangnam. Six sessions from ₩1,200,000 clear a soft, moderate pad with no incisions and no downtime.
Six as a full course, with progress usually noticeable around sessions three to four. The jawline reads properly at two to three months from the start.
Soft, moderate pad: the injection. Full pad with real volume: awake chin liposuction, which does more in one session at a similar per-area price. ARTNER Cheongdam decides by examining the area.
None beyond mild swelling and tenderness for two to three days. No dressing, no chin band, and you can fly home the same day — which is why it suits short trips to Seoul.
No. There are no incisions — only fine needle entries that leave nothing behind.
Removing fat improves it but does not change projection. ARTNER Cheongdam assesses jaw structure and may recommend chin filler alongside or instead.
Removing volume from under lax skin can leave it looking emptier. Tightening is discussed as part of the plan rather than assumed — often as ART-TUNE.
Sessions are spaced weeks apart, so most international patients do two or three per visit to Cheongdam and finish on a later trip. Longer gaps slow the timeline without resetting it.
