What Is a Non-Surgical Cosmetic Procedure, or Petit Plastic Surgery?

Provider: Lim Euisuk Theme Dermatology Clinic

Petit plastic surgery refers to non-surgical cosmetic procedures performed using injections. The procedure time is relatively short, and it allows a quick return to daily life, but it is important to proceed only after sufficient consultation that takes the individual's condition into account before treatment.

Fillers are one of the procedures loved by many people because they are simple yet deliver excellent results. In particular, unlike surgery, they do not take much time and there is no separate recovery period, so people of all ages and genders receive them, and recently many students have also been visiting clinics. This is because they are considered safe and relatively inexpensive.

As the filler market has developed, the types of fillers have diversified, and domestic products have become highly competitive, so there is no longer a need to use expensive foreign products. In addition, the treatment can be applied to various areas such as the eyes, nose, forehead, chin, and nasolabial folds. Filler means "to fill," and true to its meaning, it fills the skin and can make wrinkles disappear, while also creating a high bridge nose and plump lips.

Fillers, which can be performed in a relatively short time using injections, can improve facial wrinkles, but side effects may occur, so you should undergo a customized one-on-one treatment after sufficient consultation.

Filler treatment areas

Forehead filler: Forehead filler treatment can add volume to a flat forehead and create a prettier forehead shape. It can also improve forehead wrinkles if they are severe. Other methods include implants or facial contouring surgery, but the non-surgical forehead filler procedure is a more effective option. In particular, for women in their 20s and 30s, filler treatment is more effective than surgery, and recently young men have also been seeking male forehead fillers for a more youthful look.

Aegyo-sal filler: Also called under-eye volume filler or under-eye filler, it can add volume under the eyes. When the area under the eyes is sunken, a person can look tired and the overall impression of the face may appear darker, which is why aegyo-sal filler is commonly performed. Fat grafting can also address under-eye hollowness, but it requires the inconvenience of harvesting fat, and since the under-eye area does not need a large amount of fat, filler treatment is more effective.

Nose filler: The nose is located at the center of the face, so it has a major impact on one's appearance. For those with a low nasal bridge, nose bridge fillers can add dimension to the face, and for those with a blunt nasal tip or a nose lacking volume, fillers can add volume to the nasal tip and change the overall impression.

Cheek filler: Hollow cheeks are one of the representative signs of skin aging. Women who once disliked having a lot of baby fat when they were young often seek to restore volume with filler treatment as cheek hollowness appears with age. Cheek filler treatment resolves hollow cheeks, enhances facial contours, makes the face look more three-dimensional, and provides volume and elasticity. If front cheek filler and cheekbone filler are performed together, even richer volume can be expected.

Nasolabial fold filler: Nasolabial folds deepen as the cheeks sag due to aging. These wrinkles form as skin elasticity decreases, and the deeper they become, the more they have the opposite effect of making you look older. For this reason, it is a popular procedure among women ranging from their late 20s to their 50s. By treating the area where nasolabial folds form around the mouth and nose, it can improve wrinkles while adding volume to the face, helping create a more youthful look.

Lip filler: Lip filler and corner-of-the-mouth filler are procedures that create beautiful lips. Full lips are often described as kissable lips and can appeal to the opposite sex, making them one of the procedures preferred by many young women. However, the skin layer and mucous membrane of the lips are thinner than in other areas, and many blood vessels are distributed there, so it is important to choose a clinic with extensive experience. If done improperly, necrosis can occur, so special caution is required.

Chin filler: There are various ways to create a V-line chin, and chin filler is one of the procedures that can bring about change in a simple and short amount of time. It can change the impression by adding volume to a flat chin, and even if you do not have a receding chin, if the chin tip is flat or uneven, it can be smoothed out through chin tip filler.

Neck wrinkle filler: Even if the face looks youthful, neck wrinkles cannot easily be hidden. Like tree rings, they form over time and are a critical wrinkle for women who want to hide their age. Therefore, neck wrinkle filler is a procedure preferred by many women in their 30s and older, and better results can be expected when combined with laser treatments.

Precautions after filler treatment

After treatment, side effects such as bruising, redness, swelling, pain, softening, itching, rash, and seizures may occur, and you should follow proper care to help prevent side effects after filler treatment.

• After filler treatment, avoid drinking alcohol and smoking because they delay recovery.

• Immediately after filler treatment, avoid exposure to strong heat or cold such as saunas or steam rooms.

• Do not touch or rub the injected area for a while.

• If the injected area becomes swollen, red, or pale along with severe pain, you should visit the clinic immediately.

Filler treatment can be applied to various parts of the body, and the treatment method also differs depending on the body area. The cost or price of filler treatment varies greatly depending on the product, but in fact the effect does not differ much, so it is better to consult a specialist and receive a recommendation for the filler product that suits you.
