Face contouring in Gangnam, Seoul
A slimmer jawline, a defined chin and a balanced profile without surgery — combining toxin, fat-reducing injections, filler and energy devices according to what shapes your face.
What is non-surgical face contouring?
Non-surgical face contouring reshapes the face with injections and devices instead of surgery. Botulinum toxin slims a bulky jaw muscle, fat-dissolving injections or ONDA reduce localised fat, and hyaluronic filler adds projection to the chin, nose or cheeks. The right mix depends on whether muscle, fat, bone structure or sagging defines your face. Most options need little or no downtime, so they fit easily into a stay in Seoul.
At MIN Clinic the doctor first identifies what is creating the shape you want to change — a wide lower face is treated very differently if it comes from muscle, fat or loose skin — then builds a staged plan.

Face contouring questions we hear most
Can’t find your answer? Message our English-speaking team on WhatsApp.
Can I slim my face without surgery?
Yes, for many people. Jaw Botox, fat-dissolving injections and devices such as ONDA reduce width, while filler improves proportions; bone-related width needs surgery.
Which is better for a wide jaw: Botox or fat dissolving?
It depends on the cause. A muscular jaw responds to Botox, while soft fullness responds to fat-dissolving injections. Your doctor checks by palpation while you clench.
How long until I see results?
Filler is immediate. Toxin and fat reduction develop over 2–8 weeks, often with more than one session.
Is there downtime?
Toxin has none. Fat-dissolving injections cause swelling and tenderness for a few days; filler may cause mild swelling for 1–3 days.
Can contouring be combined with lifting?
Yes. Reducing volume while tightening the skin often gives the cleanest jawline — see Ultherapy or thread lift.
