The Short Answer
What is dermal filler?
Dermal filler is an injectable gel placed under the skin to restore lost volume, smooth lines and refine facial contours. Most fillers are made of hyaluronic acid (HA), a substance that naturally holds water in the skin. Others, such as Radiesse (CaHA) and Sculptra (PLLA), are biostimulatory: they add support and encourage your own collagen for a gradual, longer-lasting effect.
Results are visible immediately and usually last from about 6 months to 2 years, depending on the product and the area. HA fillers can be dissolved if needed, which makes them a flexible first choice for many patients. Our aim is a balanced, natural look — never an overfilled one.
Filler adds volume; it does not relax muscles. For lines caused by movement, see Botox, which is often combined with filler.
Who It’s For
Is dermal filler right for me?
Filler suits adults who want to restore or refine their features without surgery. You may be a good candidate if you want to:
- Restore volume lost with ageing or weight loss
- Define the nose, chin or jawline
- Soften nasolabial (smile) lines or marionette lines
- Enhance the lips subtly or correct asymmetry
- Fill hollow temples or under-eye hollows
- Avoid surgery and long recovery

FAQ
Dermal filler in Seoul: frequently asked questions
How long does filler last?
Most fillers last about 6 months to 2 years, depending on the product and the area. Lips usually need topping up sooner, while chin, cheek and collagen-stimulating fillers tend to last longer.
Will filler look natural?
When the right product and amount are used, filler should look like a refreshed version of you. Your physician plans conservative amounts and checks symmetry during treatment.
Does filler hurt?
Most patients feel only mild pressure or pinching. Numbing cream is applied beforehand and many fillers contain lidocaine, so the treatment is usually comfortable.
Can filler be reversed?
Hyaluronic acid fillers can be dissolved with an enzyme if needed. Collagen-stimulating fillers such as Radiesse and Sculptra cannot be dissolved in the same way, so they are planned carefully.
What are the possible side effects?
Swelling, tenderness and small bruises are common and usually settle within days. Rarer risks, such as lumps, infection or vascular complications, are discussed at consultation and managed by a physician. Choosing an experienced medical clinic reduces risk.
Which filler brand is best?
No single brand is best for every area. Juvederm, Restylane and Belotero are HA fillers with different textures, while Radiesse and Sculptra stimulate collagen. Your physician chooses the product for each area.
Can I fly after filler?
Yes, most patients can fly the next day. Keep hydrated during the flight and avoid pressing or massaging the treated area.
Do you have English-speaking staff?
Yes. Consultations are available in English, Chinese and Japanese, and you can contact us on WhatsApp before your trip.
