Hello. I’m the chief director of GD Clinic at Gangnam Station Exit 10.
Many of you feel stressed every time you look in the mirror because of the bulging flesh next to the corners of your mouth, as if you were holding candy in your cheek—so-called 'buccal fat,' right?
At our clinic, we are running a 'Face Share Recovery Project' with the idea of helping you reclaim the area of your face taken up by these pesky bulges.
Today, we’re introducing the first in the series, [Dawoom-Fit treatment - Buccal fat edition], packed with GD CLINIC’s own know-how.
I’ll honestly share why we chose 'Dawoom-Fit' instead of a standard contour injection, and what I’ve personally felt while preparing and performing it.

Your concern: "Why won’t my cheek fat go away?"
A woman in her late 20s who came in yesterday had exactly this concern too.
"I lost 3 kg through dieting, but my cheek fat is still the same. My friends said I looked grumpy, and I felt really upset."
This area, so-called buccal fat, is different from ordinary subcutaneous fat.
It is a fat pad tucked deep inside the mouth like a pouch.
As skin elasticity decreases with age, this fat pouch can no longer resist gravity and starts to sag downward.
That is what 'jowls' are.
This fat will never go away just by starving yourself.
And cutting into bone or having surgery is too scary.
That’s why what you need is a treatment that targets fat with pinpoint precision.

Treatment principle: What makes 'Dawoom-Fit' different?
There are countless contour injections on the market.
But when people say they didn’t see any effect, it’s often because only a small amount of fat-dissolving ingredients was used, or because the injection was administered mechanically without considering their facial shape.
GD Clinic’s signature 'Dawoom-Fit' is a recipe researched and blended by GD CLINIC.

■ Fat breakdown & elimination: Beyond simply reducing the size of fat cells, it helps destroy the cell membrane and allows the fat to be quickly eliminated from the body through lymphatic circulation.
■ Tightening effect: You wouldn’t want the area left after the fat is gone to become loose, right?
We blended ingredients that help the skin stay snug and firm.
■ Minimal steroid use: To prevent side effects such as dents (dimple phenomenon) or menstrual irregularities, steroid use is strictly limited unless absolutely necessary, and the formula is centered on safe ingredients.
Treatment process (GD Clinic ver.)
"I’m scared of injections, does it hurt a lot?"
※ 1:1 design (most important): You can’t just dissolve everything indiscriminately.
For people whose area below the cheekbones is hollow, that area should be avoided, and only the 'buccal fat' area should be targeted.
I personally design it with a pen and explain, "We’ll preserve this part and reduce this part."
※ Dawoom-Fit treatment: The procedure time is very short, within 5 minutes.
You may feel a slight sting and a heavy pressure as the solution goes in, but most people say, "It’s more tolerable than I thought."

Progress and checkpoints
The reason office workers around Gangnam Station get 'Dawoom-Fit' during lunch is that there is almost no downtime.
⇒ Right after the procedure: Because the solution has been injected, the cheeks may look puffy like a squirrel’s. This is absorbed and subsides within 3~4 hours.
⇒ Bruising/swelling: It varies by person, but there is almost no major bruising, so you can return to daily life right away. (Makeup is possible)
⇒ When results appear: Time is needed for the fat to break down and be eliminated.
Usually, you’ll start to feel the lines become more defined after 1~2 weeks, and satisfaction is higher when the treatment is done 3 or more times at 2~3 week intervals, depending on the amount of fat.
