Hi:) I have a typical slim-to-average body type, 165 cm/51 kg. However, my abdomen has always been a concern because it does not lose fat even with exercise, and it is shaped exactly like my mother’s; I am completely spider-shaped, with fat genetically concentrated in my abdomen. Recently, belly fat has been especially bothersome when exercising, so I decided on liposuction!! For reference, I ultimately ruled out buttock liposuction because although the results looked dramatic in reviews, I thought I should have only the minimum surgery necessary. My rib cage is on the smaller side, but my shoulders are broad and my hips have less volume than my shoulders. I consulted five clinics and will have surgery next week:) 1. [Clinic A] — They said they would probably remove 2,800 cc (no ultrasound). Upper and lower abdomen, flanks, and love handles: 2.5 million won excluding VAT / suture removal after two weeks. Iron test required; 10,000 won if not done. Recovery-support injection may be added for 110,000 won, waived if a review is posted. Three aftercare sessions included. Free revision after six months if the result is poor, but a 120,000-won sedation fee is required; weight must not change. 2. [Clinic B] — Consider removing the pubic area and upper buttocks as well. Fixed price 3.1 million + upper buttocks 1.5 million + pubic area 600,000 = 5.7 million won / suture removal after one week. Three radiofrequency aftercare sessions + three Fraxel scar sessions; laser treatment is added only if a review is posted. Compression garment optional. An anesthesiology specialist is available. 3. [Clinic C] — Unusually, the doctor explained everything, including the price; there was no coordinator. Since it recently opened, there was a strong new-building smell. 2.1 million won / suture removal after one week / two radiofrequency sessions, VAT included. Compression garment required. 4. [Clinic D] — They said about 2,400 cc would probably be removed (ultrasound used). 3.74 million + 150,000 + 120,000 + 30,000 = 4.04 million won, VAT included. Four aftercare sessions. Suture removal after two weeks. They said over 2,000 cc counts as high-volume and costs extra. This annoyed me because you only know whether it exceeds 2,000 cc after actually removing it, and that is not pure fat volume anyway. 5. [Clinic E] — They said about 2,000 cc would come out, including 1,300 cc of pure fat (ultrasound used). 1.97 million won including VAT + 100,000 for a compression garment. Suture removal after 10–14 days. The incision should be barely visible because it is in the pubic area. I initially paid a deposit to [Clinic E] because the price was reasonable, they prioritized safety, and their ultrasound explanation was good. But the arm and thigh reviews looked good while there were hardly any abdominal reviews, and the ones available were poor, so I ultimately ruled it out I really want to completely burn away my abdominal fat… I have worried about it since my teens, and people are surprised when they learn my weight, but even more surprised when they see my abdomen There is no way this abdomen should exist with this height and weight, seriously So I want a truly flat stomach, and [Clinic B] had the results closest to what I wanted among the reviews, so I chose it!! Especially for safety, I think an anesthesiology specialist is worth paying more for. My biggest concern is scarring because they make many holes. I expect good results and will take good care of the scars. I hope everyone makes a good choice!!
