Treatment Duration

Q. How long does it take to receive my diet herbal medicine after a remote consultation?

A.

Once your prescription is finalized after the consultation, you will typically receive your medication within 3 to 7 days. This timeframe is necessary because we provide 1:1 customized formulation tailored to your specific body condition rather than shipping pre-made products.

📝 Detailed Answer

Remote consultation does not mean the medication is shipped instantly. In Traditional Korean Medicine (TKM), the preparation process is crucial for efficacy and safety. First, we carefully analyze your constitution and current physical state through the remote consultation. Rather than focusing solely on weight, we assess internal factors such as the presence of Eohyeol (瘀血, blood stasis), Dameum (痰飮, phlegm-fluid retention), or Biheo (脾虛, deficiency of the Spleen/digestive function). The types and dosages of medicinal herbs vary significantly based on these diagnostic results. Once the prescription is finalized, we enter the formulation stage—selecting premium herbs and decocting them with care—which typically takes 2 to 4 days. Including shipping time, it is best to expect delivery within about a week. While this process may lack the instant gratification of mass-produced western diet pills, using overly potent medications without considering one's metabolic capacity and constitution can lead to side effects such as extreme fatigue or dizziness. We appreciate your patience as we prepare a 'tailor-made' prescription that fits your body perfectly.
