Complete Guide to Hongdae Botox: A Full Summary of 3 Types of Botox

Botox is currently one of the most versatile procedures in the skincare and aesthetics field. If you are considering Hongdae Botox, you may be wondering which treatment among the various Botox types is right for you. Today, I’ll explain in detail the features and differences of the three Botox treatments currently drawing the most attention.

Lifting Botox (Dermotoxin): Preventive Anti-Aging for People in Their 20s and 30s

Lifting Botox is also called skin Botox or Dermotoxin, and it has recently become the most popular treatment among people in their 20s and 30s. While conventional Botox is injected into the muscle layer, lifting Botox is performed by diluting botulinum toxin and injecting small amounts densely into the dermal layer of the skin.

The main effects of this treatment can be summarized in four points.

First, it suppresses the small muscles called the arrector pili muscles, tightening enlarged pores.

Second, it helps control sebaceous gland activity, reducing shine and helping improve acne.

Third, it naturally smooths fine lines across the face.

Fourth, it promotes collagen regeneration, increasing skin elasticity.

This treatment feels as if the entire skin is being coated with Botox, and its biggest advantage is that it improves overall skin texture while having almost no effect on facial expressions.

The treatment area is mainly focused on facial contours such as the jawline and face line, and the duration of effect is about 2–3 months.

Conventional Botox: The Proven Basics of Wrinkle Improvement

Conventional Botox is a treatment that reduces muscle movement by blocking acetylcholine, a neurotransmitter, at the nerve terminal. When muscle activity decreases, the muscle becomes smaller, which can improve or prevent wrinkles caused by active muscle movement.

The main treatment areas are focused on specific areas such as the forehead, glabella, eye area, and square jaw, and the procedure is performed by injecting deeply at point-specific locations into the muscle layer. The duration of effect is 3–6 months, which is longer than lifting Botox, but in the early stage after treatment, facial expressions may become unnatural and there may be discomfort in daily life for a few days.

The most important thing in Hongdae Botox treatment is managing resistance. The reason resistance is difficult to reverse once it develops is that the immune system has "memory cells," so even if you stop for 1–2 years and then receive the treatment again, resistance can develop faster and more strongly. Therefore, the following four principles must be observed.

First, avoid retreatment within 3 months.

Second, avoid booster shots.

Third, follow the appropriate dosage of 300–400U suitable for cosmetic use.

Fourth, choose proven products with a low resistance rate.

Botox is essentially a "preventive treatment." A study supports this: when identical twins were examined more than ten years later, with one twin having received Botox and the other not, the twin who had been consistently treated with Botox had much better skin condition.

Body Botox: A New Approach to Improving Body Lines

Body Botox is a treatment that reduces the size of specific muscles in the body to smooth lines and reduce bulk. Popular treatment areas include the trapezius, calves, deltoids, and thighs.

The treatment principle is simple, but because each person’s muscle shape and size differ, a detailed consultation and design process are very important.

The injection amount is determined according to muscle size, and in most cases, one treatment is enough to achieve the desired satisfaction. The time when results become noticeable is about 2–3 weeks, peak satisfaction is at 3–4 weeks, and the duration of effect is 2–3 months. A retreatment interval of about 4 to 6 months is recommended.

However, body Botox is not suitable for everyone.

In the case of trapezius Botox, people with rounded shoulders may have difficulty creating a right-angled shoulder line. In addition, people with cervical disc problems should avoid the procedure because weakening the muscles may negatively affect bone stability. In particular, those who often experience numbness in their hands and feet, or who always have stiffness and pain in the muscles at the back of the neck, are advised to avoid trapezius Botox.

As for side effects of body Botox, if Botox does not affect only a specific muscle but instead circulates throughout the body through the bloodstream, it may also affect other muscles unintentionally.

In such cases, general weakness may occur, and you may feel discomfort in breathing, so careful consultation and appropriate dose adjustment are necessary.

The Importance of Choosing the Right Botox for You

When considering Hongdae Botox, it is important to choose the appropriate type of treatment based on your skin condition, age, lifestyle, and desired results.

For younger people who want preventive care, lifting Botox may be suitable; if you want clear improvement in wrinkles in a specific area, conventional Botox may be appropriate; and if your goal is to improve body lines, body Botox may be suitable.

Most importantly, you should establish a treatment plan that fits your individual situation through a detailed consultation process. Since no two skins in the world are the same, a customized approach can produce the best results.
