Thinking about skin tightening or fat reduction treatments in Korea? You’ve probably heard the names InMode, InMode FORMA, and InMode FX — but what exactly do they mean, and how do they differ?
In this guide, we’ll break down the key differences, benefits, and what to expect, plus we’ll share the top Korean clinics to consider for your next visit.

🔍 What Is InMode?
InMode is a cutting-edge aesthetic technology company based in the U.S., renowned for developing innovative medical devices that provide non-invasive and minimally invasive solutions for skin rejuvenation, body sculpting, and facial lifting.
Whether you’re looking to firm sagging skin, reduce localized fat, or simply refresh your appearance, InMode technologies are widely used across top clinics worldwide for their safety, efficiency, and visible results with minimal recovery time.
It’s worth noting that “InMode” is often used as a general term, but there are multiple device platforms and treatment options under the InMode umbrella — including the popular FORMA and FX series (BodyFX & MiniFX), each designed for specific aesthetic goals.
💡 InMode FORMA: The Go-To for Skin Tightening
FORMA is one of InMode’s most in-demand treatments, especially for individuals seeking tightened, lifted, and smoother skin without downtime or surgery. This treatment uses advanced radio-frequency (RF) technology to gently heat the dermal layers, which stimulates collagen production — the protein responsible for skin firmness and elasticity.
⭐ What Does It Treat?
- Mild to moderate skin laxity on the face, neck, and jawline
- Fine lines and wrinkles, especially around the eyes and mouth
- Dull or sagging skin that needs a refreshing glow
- Post-treatment maintenance for other lifting procedures like thread lifts or Ultherapy
✅ Key Benefits of FORMA:
- Non-invasive and virtually painless
- No downtime — you can go back to your day right after treatment
- Suitable for all skin types, including sensitive skin
- Immediate post-treatment radiance — often called the “red carpet facial“
- Can be done in a series for cumulative lifting and firming effects
FORMA is ideal for those who want a natural, youthful look without the risk or recovery of more aggressive procedures.
💡 InMode FX (BodyFX / MiniFX): Fat Reduction & Body Contouring
While FORMA focuses on skin, InMode FX technologies are all about shaping the body and reducing stubborn fat pockets that are hard to eliminate through diet and exercise alone. BodyFX and MiniFX are non-surgical body-contouring devices that combine:
- Radio-frequency energy
- Deep tissue heating
- Vacuum-assisted negative pressure massage
These elements work together to target fat cells, improve skin texture, and reduce the appearance of cellulite.
📍 Best Areas to Treat with FX:
- Abdomen
- Thighs
- Upper arms
- Love handles
- Flanks or back fat
✅ Key Benefits of BodyFX / MiniFX:
- Effective non-surgical fat reduction
- Helps reduce the lumpy appearance of cellulite
- Improves skin elasticity and smoothness
- Safe, comfortable, and FDA-cleared
- Ideal for body sculpting without downtime
