Filler
This is an injectable procedure that addresses uneven contours in sunken areas by placing filler materials such as hyaluronic acid. Since viscoelasticity varies by product, choices are made based on the target area and purpose, and the duration of results as well as the degree of swelling and bruising vary by individual.
Fillers: key points in brief?
Fillers are injectable treatments that place filler materials such as hyaluronic acid under the skin to smooth out sunken areas. Particle size and viscoelasticity vary by product, so the injection layer and treatment area differ even for the same component, meaning specific products are selected for specific areas. While results are visible immediately after the procedure, the appearance may change as swelling subsides, so a follow-up review is done after a set period. Duration, swelling, and bruising vary by individual, and any history of hypersensitivity reactions must be reported in advance.

B:AID's Approach
Fillers are injectable treatments where absorbable substances like hyaluronic acid are injected beneath the skin to fill sunken areas or refine facial contours. Because outcomes depend on the injection layer, amount, and product viscosity, carefully planning depth and volume is essential. Procedures are performed by mapping anatomical structures where blood vessels and nerves reside. Since injected materials absorb over time, retention periods vary per individual, and certain filler types allow the use of dissolving agents if necessary. Use of anticoagulants, bleeding tendencies, and past injection history are reviewed prior to treatment.
Frequently Asked Questions
How long do fillers last?
It varies depending on the product, treatment area, and individual metabolism. Duration varies by individual, so an expected range will be guided during consultation.
Is the appearance right after the procedure final?
As swelling subsides, the results may look different, so we check again after a certain period. If necessary, adjustments will be considered at that time.
Does it bruise?
Bruising or swelling may occur at the injection site. The degree and duration vary by individual.
Can it be dissolved?
Depending on the ingredients, some products can be dissolved. Whether it is possible and the method vary depending on the product used, which will be confirmed during the consultation.
Are different products used for each area?
Yes. Each product has different particle size and viscoelasticity, so the target layer and area differ. We select the product based on the area and purpose.
Can I receive treatment even if I have allergies?
If you have a history of hypersensitivity reactions, you must inform us before the treatment. The products used and whether to proceed will depend on this.

How will I be informed about the treatment cost?
Costs vary by individual depending on the treatment scope, materials and equipment used, and the required number of sessions. We will guide you on the costs after establishing a plan during the consultation.
Is there anything I should inform you of before the procedure?
You must inform us of medications you are taking (anticoagulants, etc.), history of allergies or hypersensitivity reactions, pregnancy or breastfeeding status, and recent procedure history. Depending on those details, eligibility for the procedure and the method may vary.
How should I care for my skin after the procedure?
Sun protection, moisturizing, and activities to avoid vary depending on the type of procedure. We will provide post-procedure precautions, and for procedures requiring follow-up checkups, we will also advise you on when to visit again.
What should I do if side effects or unexpected reactions occur?
If you experience any unexpected reactions after the procedure, please contact us at 02-511-1985. After assessing your condition, we will inform you of the necessary treatments and follow-up care plan.
