“No dose limit” doesn’t mean no limit
Articles by Dr. Oh
With LINE ON Injection, the dose isn’t limited by body weight. In practice, though, I inject only up to the maximum that can be effective for the thickness of the fat under your skin, which I check by examining you. Injecting more doesn’t make the result proportionally better.
LINE ON Injection is our injection treatment for small areas of fat. Because of how the solution is formulated, the dose isn’t limited by body weight. But that doesn’t mean more is better.
Too large a dose can put excessive pressure on the skin, and recovery can take longer with little gain in effect. So I examine the injection area myself and check the thickness of the fat under the skin, then inject the most that still adds to the effect.
The dose depends on your body weight, the thickness of the fat layer under the skin and the skin elasticity in that area. It differs from person to person for the same area, and it can differ from session to session for the same person.
The 15-minute microwave treatment after each session follows the same logic. Rather than increasing the dose, I choose to support circulation in the injected area.

Common questions about this treatment
Once I’ve had LINE ON Injection, can the fat come back?
The most common misconception is that a single session will stop you from gaining weight again. There’s a limit to how much fat one session can reduce, so at most it refines a contour.
Does LINE ON Injection contain steroids?
No. Steroids can produce an effect by shrinking tissue, but they can cause side effects throughout the body, including irregular periods and bleeding between periods, so I don’t use them.
If there’s no set dose limit, how much LINE ON Injection do you actually use?
I inject the amount that gives the greatest effect in each area. How much that is depends on your body weight, the thickness of the fat under your skin and the skin elasticity in that area.
Will the treatment still work if I don’t exercise or watch my diet?
It may still have an effect, but without exercise and a healthy diet, the change soon wears off.
