Personally performed by Dr. Hong Seung-hyuk, Dr. Maeng Woo-jae, or Dr. Hong Yeong-ho — three medical directors on-site. G-fat is our non-surgical lipolysis injection programme for localized fat, delivered by a resident director from your first consultation to your follow-up.
Before
After
A G-fat fat dissolving injection is a non-surgical lipolysis treatment that places a fat-reducing solution directly into a targeted area — such as the abdomen, upper arm, arm, inner thigh, or thigh — to break down localized fat cells so the body can gradually clear them over the following weeks. At G Clinic in Gangnam, Seoul, each course is planned and administered by one of three resident medical directors, all Family Medicine specialists. It is designed for stubborn pockets of fat that resist diet and exercise rather than for overall weight loss, and it usually needs a short series of sessions spaced a few weeks apart. Because it involves injections rather than incisions, most patients return to daily routines quickly, though mild swelling or tenderness at the injection sites is common at first. Your suitability, the number of sessions, and expected changes are reviewed one-to-one at a free consultation.

Every stage is handled directly by one of our three resident medical directors.
A resident director reviews your goals, health history, and the areas you want to address, then explains whether G-fat is suitable for you. Your consultation is free and every question is welcome.
Your director maps the target zones — abdomen, arms, or thighs — and plans the number of sessions and injection points based on the fat distribution in each area.
The fat dissolving solution is injected into the mapped points during a short in-clinic visit. A topical numbing option can be discussed beforehand to keep you comfortable.
You receive simple aftercare guidance and a follow-up plan. Most people resume normal activities the same day, with any mild swelling or tenderness typically easing over the following days.
G-fat is G Clinic's name for our fat dissolving injection programme — a non-surgical approach to reducing localized fat without incisions or general anaesthesia. Instead of removing fat mechanically, the injected solution works within the treated area to break down fat cells, which the body then clears naturally over the weeks that follow.
Because it targets specific pockets of fat, G-fat is better understood as a contouring option rather than a weight-loss method. It is most often chosen for areas that stay stubborn even with a stable diet and regular exercise, such as the lower abdomen, the upper arms, the arm as a whole, the inner thighs, and the thighs. Each of these areas has its own dedicated page where you can see focused before-and-after cases and area-specific guidance: Stomach Fat Dissolving, Upper Arm Fat Dissolving, Arm Fat Dissolving, Inner Thigh Fat Dissolving, and Thigh Fat Dissolving.
A single G-fat visit is usually short. After your director confirms the plan agreed at consultation, the target area is cleansed and marked. The solution is then delivered through a series of fine injections across the mapped points, with the number of points depending on the size of the area being treated.
G-fat is typically planned as a short series rather than a one-off. Sessions are generally spaced a few weeks apart so the treated area has time to respond between visits. The exact number of sessions is decided one-to-one, because it depends on the area, the amount of localized fat, and how your body responds — which is why an in-person assessment matters more than any fixed package.
G-fat tends to suit people who are close to their target shape but are bothered by specific pockets of fat that will not shift with lifestyle changes alone. Good candidates are generally in good overall health, have realistic expectations, and are looking to refine a defined area rather than to lose weight across the whole body.
It may not be the right choice for everyone. Pregnancy or breastfeeding, certain medical conditions, and some medications can make treatment unsuitable, and very large volumes of fat are usually better discussed as part of a broader plan. The most reliable way to know is a direct assessment: at your free consultation, a resident director reviews your health history and the areas you want to treat before recommending anything.
Because G-fat relies on your body gradually clearing the treated fat cells, changes appear over time rather than immediately. Many patients begin to notice a difference in the treated area over the weeks following a session, with the fuller picture emerging as the planned series is completed.
Results vary from person to person and depend on the area treated, the number of sessions, and individual factors such as skin tone and lifestyle. Maintaining a stable weight helps preserve the change you achieve. Your director will explain what is realistic for your specific case at consultation — and the before-and-after cases above are shared for information, not as a promise of any particular outcome.
As with any injectable treatment, G-fat can involve temporary side effects. Mild swelling, redness, tenderness, warmth, or small bruises around the injection sites are common in the first days and usually settle on their own. Your director will go through the full range of possible reactions with you before you decide to proceed.
To keep treatment as safe as possible, share your complete health history, any medications or supplements you take, and any past reactions to injections. Follow the aftercare guidance you are given, and contact the clinic if anything feels unusual as you recover. All care is provided by a resident medical director on site, so there is always a doctor to answer your questions.
One reason many people consider G-fat is that it generally involves little downtime compared with surgical options. Because it uses injections rather than incisions, most patients return to their usual routine on the same day, keeping in mind that mild swelling or tenderness in the treated area is normal at first.
Simple steps can help you recover comfortably: stay hydrated, avoid intense pressure or vigorous exercise on the treated area for the period your director advises, and keep to any gentle aftercare recommendations you are given. If you are visiting from abroad, our team can help you plan your sessions and follow-up around your stay in Seoul through the consultation form.
A general comparison of two approaches to reducing localized fat, to help you frame your consultation.
| Consideration | G-fat fat dissolving injection | Surgical liposuction |
|---|---|---|
| Approach | Non-surgical injections that break down fat cells | Surgical removal of fat through small incisions |
| Anaesthesia | Topical numbing option; no general anaesthesia | Often general or heavy sedation |
| Sessions | Usually a short planned series spaced weeks apart | Typically a single surgical procedure |
| Downtime | Generally minimal; mild swelling or tenderness possible | Usually a longer recovery with compression care |
| Well suited to | Refining stubborn, localized pockets of fat | Larger volumes of fat in a single area |
| Onset of change | Gradual, over weeks as the body clears fat cells | More immediate, once swelling subsides |
This comparison is general information only. Which approach suits you depends on your goals, anatomy, and health — your resident director will discuss the options at your free consultation.
G-fat pricing depends on the areas treated and the number of sessions your director recommends, so it is quoted at your free consultation — the same figures for every patient. Share your details and we will prepare a personalized quote for you.
G-fat is a non-surgical lipolysis injection that places a fat-reducing solution into a targeted area so the body can gradually clear the treated fat cells. At G Clinic it is planned and performed by one of three resident medical directors. You can explore area-specific pages for Stomach Fat Dissolving and Inner Thigh Fat Dissolving.
Pricing is consultation-based and quoted at your free consultation, with the same figures for every patient. Because the cost depends on the areas treated and the number of sessions, the most accurate way to get a figure is to share your details through the consultation form.
G-fat is usually planned as a short series spaced a few weeks apart rather than a single session. The exact number depends on the area and how your body responds, so your director will recommend a plan at your assessment. Area pages such as Upper Arm Fat Dissolving and Arm Fat Dissolving give area-specific context.
Downtime is generally minimal. Most people return to their usual routine the same day, though mild swelling or tenderness at the injection sites is common at first and typically eases over the following days. Your director will give you simple aftercare guidance for your treated area, such as the Thigh Fat Dissolving region.
G-fat is commonly used for localized fat on the abdomen, upper arm, arm, inner thigh, and thigh. Each area has its own detailed page with focused before-and-after cases — start with Stomach Fat Dissolving or Inner Thigh Fat Dissolving.
Sensitivity varies between people. G-fat uses fine injections, and a topical numbing option can be discussed beforehand to keep you comfortable. Any tenderness afterwards is usually mild and short-lived. Your director will talk through comfort options at consultation.
Because the body clears the treated fat cells gradually, changes appear over the weeks following a session rather than immediately, with the fuller picture emerging as the planned series is completed. Results vary by individual and area, and maintaining a stable weight helps preserve them.
G-fat is a non-surgical, injection-based approach usually delivered as a short series with minimal downtime, while liposuction is a surgical procedure that removes larger volumes of fat in a single operation with a longer recovery. Which suits you depends on your goals and anatomy — your director will help you weigh the options.
Every G-fat consultation and session is handled by one of three resident medical directors — Dr. Hong Seung-hyuk, Dr. Maeng Woo-jae, or Dr. Hong Yeong-ho — all Family Medicine specialists based on site in Gangnam, Seoul.
