02WHY TREAT EARLY

Why Pediatric and Adolescent Obesity May Need Treatment

During childhood and adolescence, not only the size but also the number of fat cells increases. This can make weight loss more difficult in adulthood and may make severe obesity more likely.

Please help your child develop habits for a healthy body and mind from an early age.

Why Pediatric and Adolescent Obesity May Need Treatment

01
Effects on Growth
Pediatric and adolescent obesity can stimulate sex hormone secretion and increase the likelihood of precocious puberty, which may negatively affect growth.
02
Prone to Progress to Adult Obesity
It is known that about 70% of pediatric obesity progresses to adult obesity. If someone in the family is overweight, extra attention is needed.
03
Emotional Well-Being and School Life
Obesity can also affect anxiety and depression. During a sensitive period, it may lower confidence and interfere with friendships and schoolwork.
04
Waste Products in the Body
When damp-phlegm (濕痰: sticky waste products that accumulate in the body) toxins increase in the body, the mind may feel unclear and the child may feel tired all the time.

CONSTITUTION TEST

1:1 Personalized Constitution Test

TEST 01
Iris Genetic Constitution Test
We comprehensively assess genetic strengths and weaknesses, constitution, autonomic nervous system balance, toxin distribution, vascular aging, and more to look for the causes of obesity.
TEST 02
HRV Autonomic Nervous System Test
We check the activity and balance of the sympathetic and parasympathetic nerves. Autonomic nervous system imbalance can slow organ movement and make the body more sensitive.
TEST 03
Detailed Body Composition Analysis
Using InBody S10, we analyze body fat percentage, muscle loss status, whole-body balance, visceral fat, and body water (edema) to set weight loss goals.
TEST 04
Cellular Health Immunity Test
Using phase angle, we analyze overall nutritional status to decide whether to prioritize functional recovery or weight loss.

04FAQ

Frequently Asked Questions

QWorried your child may be using illegally distributed appetite suppressants among adolescents?

Appetite suppressants containing narcotic ingredients can be strong in effect and inexpensive, but they are highly addictive and carry a significant risk of serious side effects. If taken indiscriminately without guardian guidance, they can harm a child’s emotional well-being and health and may lead to eating disorders. Herbal medicine is prescribed to help with appetite control, waste product removal, and constitutional improvement according to the child’s constitution, and the decision is made after a consultation and discussion with the guardian.

QIs it okay to reduce food intake during the growing years?

During the growing years, care is needed to avoid strict diet restrictions like those used for adults. With the help of an herbal medicine prescription, we support healthy weight loss while replenishing insufficient nutrition.

QWill dieting interfere with height growth?

We prescribe with consideration for height growth, brain activity, concentration, and physical stamina along with weight loss. When needed, Nokyong (Deer Antler) and Chongmyeong-tang are used together.

QCan adolescents receive treatment procedures?

If needed for entrance exam, photo shoot, or competition preparation, treatment procedures can be performed on areas of concern after guardian consent.
