Filler: When You Want to Restore Lost Volume and Create a Softer Impression

Every time you look in the mirror, are you bothered by sunken cheeks

or deepening wrinkles,

but unsure which procedure to choose?

Some people want to see changes quickly,

while others want results that last even as time passes.

One of the 대표적인 choices is

"filler."

In this post, we’ll take a look at

the pros and cons of filler procedures.

What is filler?

✨ Effect

Dramatic volume improvement and wrinkle reduction

👉 Filler injects skin-friendly ingredients such as

hyaluronic acid and collagen into the skin,

filling in sunken areas and wrinkles and

adding volume to the face.

The change is visible right after the procedure,

and the facial contours are naturally restored.

✨ Duration

6–18 months

Varies depending on the product and treatment area

👉 The actual duration may vary depending on

a person’s metabolic rate, treatment area,

injection amount, and product line.

✨ Treatment areas

The face overall, including nasolabial folds, lips, and cheekbones

👉 It can be used to balance the volume of the entire face

or to reinforce volume in a specific area

in a focused way.

✨ Pain · Recovery

Return to daily life immediately after the procedure,

with some bruising or swelling

👉 Local anesthesia and numbing cream (ointment-type local anesthetic)

are used to minimize pain,

and bruising or swelling may occur depending on the individual,

but it usually goes down naturally in about 2–3 days.

✨ Features

Because volume can be selectively added only to the desired area,

immediate change is possible

👉 Since the facial line becomes more defined right after the procedure,

it has the advantage of being able to be applied quickly

even before an important schedule.

Filler treatment areas

Filler can be applied to the forehead, between the eyebrows, bridge/tip of the nose,

under-eye area, lips, cheeks, nasolabial folds, and chin,

and can also be used on the body if needed.

However, if it is injected without considering the face shape or balance,

it may make the face look puffy or swollen instead.

That is why it is important to determine the exact amount that suits your face

through a one-on-one consultation with a specialist

and make the decision accordingly.

Precautions after filler treatment

⚠️ Cleansing and makeup

Possible 2–3 hours after the procedure

▶️ If you cleanse your face or apply makeup immediately after the procedure,

it may affect the process of the filler settling into place,

so caution is needed.

⚠️ Regeneration tape

Remove the regeneration tape attached to the treatment area

after 24 hours

▶️ Removing the tape too early or touching it with your hands

may irritate the treatment area.

⚠️ Taking prescribed medication

Take the prescribed medication consistently,

and if you have a history of antibiotic allergies,

be sure to inform the medical staff.

▶️ To prevent infection and reduce inflammation,

you must take all prescribed medication without fail.

⚠️ Pressure precautions

If the treatment area is pressed, its shape may change due to external pressure,

so avoid pressure for 2–3 weeks after the procedure

▶️ Be careful of pillow pressure while sleeping,

wearing glasses (bridge-of-the-nose/cheekbone filler),

and using straws (lip filler),

and manage it so it can settle naturally.
