While choosing my wedding ceremony dress, I tried on a design that exposed my arms. What I saw in the mirror looked different from photos T_T In photos, my upper arms looked thicker than I expected, and from then on I could only notice my arms lol. Even when I diet, my arms are the type that really do not slim down easily, so I tried Onda lifting on my upper arms before my wedding photos. I went to a dermatology clinic in Cheongdam after looking into several, and I had quite a sufficient amount of time to speak with the doctor separately. They had me raise and lower my arms to see which areas had more pinchable fat. I said I was particularly concerned about below the shoulders and the backs of my arms. They marked those areas and decided how far to treat. They said the upper arm has different thicknesses in different areas, so they do not use only one type of tip. They explained that areas close to bone are treated more gently and areas with more pinchable fat are targeted more intensively. I liked that they did not treat the entire arm identically. During treatment, it felt like a warm device was continually rubbing over my arms. A few areas occasionally became suddenly very hot, but they adjusted it immediately when I told them, so it was tolerable. I also had almost no bruising or swelling afterward, so it did not interfere with daily life. It is difficult to compare exactly because the photo angles and clothes are different, but when I tried the dress on again, the line from below my shoulder to my elbow did seem less bulky than before. It was not that my arms became dramatically slimmer in one go; rather, the uneven areas seemed somewhat refined. There is still time before the wedding ceremony, so I will continue to watch for changes. Still, the arm line visible in my dress looks neater than before, so I am satisfied so far haha.

Petit Procedure Reviews@petit-reviewSep 7 Doesn't changing the lower face make you look like a completely different person?
I am fairly slim, but my face in particular was just U-shaped, you know? Even though people say photos and real life can look a bit different, I looked much heavier in photos than in person, so I think that bothered me even more…
