Volume Filler in Seoul |
Apgujeong EU:GENES Skin Clinic
As we age, the face gradually loses the fullness that made it look soft and lifted. At Apgujeong EU:GENES Skin Clinic, volume filler restores that support with a whole-face plan, so you look refreshed and like yourself, never overfilled.
What is volume filler?
Volume filler describes using hyaluronic acid filler to replace structural fullness lost with age, weight loss or genetics. Rather than chasing individual lines, it rebuilds key support points, such as the cheeks, temples and midface, so skin drapes more smoothly and the face looks lifted.
Restoring volume in the right places often softens lines elsewhere, which is why a small amount placed strategically can look more natural than filling each wrinkle directly.
Who is it for?
Volume filler may suit you if you notice:
- Flatter cheeks or a hollow, tired midface
- Sunken temples or a gaunt look after weight loss
- Deepening folds that seem to come from sagging above
It is not the right option if you mainly have heavy, loose skin (lifting treatments may help more), active skin infection or inflammation, a bleeding disorder, an autoimmune flare, or if you are pregnant or breastfeeding. It is also not for anyone seeking a dramatically "filled" look; we focus on natural enhancement.
Benefits
- A softer, more youthful facial shape
- Subtle lift to the midface and lower face
- Improved balance between different areas of the face
- Adjustable, with dissolvable hyaluronic acid
Your treatment at EU:GENES
Your 1:1 consultation with Dr. Jung Yoo-jin looks at your face from every angle and expression, and she may compare it with older photos of you to understand what has changed. This helps her place volume where it was lost, not simply where lines appear.
She then designs a step-by-step plan and performs the treatment herself, often using a cannula for deeper placement and fewer bruises. For larger corrections, she may split treatment across two sessions so the result builds gradually. You receive clear aftercare before leaving.
Results & how long they last
You will notice a fresher look immediately, with the final result settling over about two weeks. Depending on the area and product, volume filler typically lasts around 12 to 18 months for most patients. Combining it with HIFU or Thermage can address skin laxity that filler alone cannot lift.
Downtime, aftercare & possible side effects
Swelling, tenderness and some bruising are common for a few days, and the face may feel firm for a week or so. Avoid facial massage, saunas, heavy exercise and alcohol for 48 hours, and sleep on your back for the first few nights.
Possible side effects include lumps, asymmetry and, rarely, infection or delayed nodules. Some areas, such as the temples, carry a higher risk of vascular occlusion, a rare but serious complication, so careful technique and anatomical knowledge are essential. Contact us immediately about severe pain or skin color change.
