Non-surgical fat removal in Korea: what actually removes fat?
Freezing, injections and devices all claim to remove fat. They work very differently. Here is how they compare with LAMS, 365mc’s method that physically extracts fat without surgery.

Non-surgical options at a glance
| Cryolipolysis | Fat-dissolving injections | LAMS | |

| Incision | None | None | None |
| Anesthesia | None | Usually none | Local |
| When you see change | Weeks to months | Gradual, often multiple sessions | Shortly after, refining with aftercare |

365mc original · LAMS
See the fat come out, while you are awake
LAMS (Local Anesthetic Minimal-invasive Liposuction) was developed by 365mc for people who want liposuction’s direct removal of fat cells without an incision or sleep anesthesia.
Fat is drawn directly into a syringe. According to 365mc, extracting one bottle takes about ten minutes, and because you are awake you can see the fat that was removed and talk with your doctor during the procedure.
- No incision, so no stitches to remove
- No sleep anesthesia — local anesthesia only
- No compression garment
- Customised Orange Care after LAMS
