What is a Facial Filler?

WHAT IS IT?

This is a treatment where hyaluronic acid, a substance easily absorbed by the body,
is injected into areas requiring volume or wrinkle improvement.
It is primarily performed on the forehead, nose, cheeks, smile lines (nasolabial folds),
under-eyes, and chin to create a more youthful appearance.

At Toxnfill, we exclusively use safe hyaluronic acid fillers, which can attract
and retain moisture between 300 to 1,000 times their own weight.

Effects and Recommended Frequency

1 The longevity of fillers varies depending on the individual, treatment area, and product. Generally, Korean fillers last between 6-12 months, while imported fillers last for 12-18 months.

2 If you are planning a follow-up treatment, it is possible once the bruising and swelling have subsided. Please make your decision after a thorough consultation with our medical staff.

Treatment Q&A

• Q. What is the difference between botox and fillers?
  Botox (Toxin) treatments work by relaxing overdeveloped muscles, helping smooth facial lines and reduce expression wrinkles. Fillers, as the name suggests, are used to add volume to areas of the face that lack fullness. Filler treatments can be applied to areas such as the forehead, chin, front cheekbone, cheeks, nasolabial folds, nose bridge, lips, aegyo-sal (under-eye fat), and under-eye area, helping enhance facial volume and balance.
• Q. What is the difference between fillers and Sculptra?
  Fillers are made from safe substances such as hyaluronic acid, formulated in a gel form. When injected, they provide immediate volume. Sculptra, on the other hand, is composed of a collagen-stimulating material (PLLA). After injection, it gradually stimulates collagen production over time, creating volume slowly and naturally.
• Q. Which is better, Korean or imported fillers? What’s the difference?
  Although both contain similar base ingredients, imported fillers, which have been used worldwide for many years, tend to have better viscoelasticity and a wider variety of particle types. This allows for more precise treatments depending on the area. If you are considering cost-effectiveness, Korean fillers are a popular and practical choice. If you place greater emphasis on safety and stability, imported fillers are recommended.

Precautions

Self-care is as significant as skincare for treatment effects. Please read through cautions closely and follow them.

• You can wash your face and apply makeup 2-3 hours after the procedure. Please remove the Duoderm attached to the treated area after 24 hours.
• Please take your prescribed medication consistently for 3 days to prevent inflammation and reduce pain. If you have a history of allergies to antibiotics or any other medications, please be sure to inform us.
• It is recommended to avoid heavy drinking, sauna/jjimjilbang visits, hot baths for 3-7 days after the procedure.
• Bruising, swelling, pain, or a foreign body sensation may occur, but these usually subside within 1-2 weeks. However, if pain worsens after taking the prescribed medication, or if you experience persistent skin discoloration, blistering at the treatment site, itching, or warmth, please contact the clinic and visit.
• Please be careful not to compress the treated area for 2-3 weeks as there may be changes in shape due to external pressure. (e.g., avoid wearing hats, sleeping face down or on your side, wearing glasses, ultrasound & high-frequency treatments, facial acupressure massage).
• If you experience any other discomfort, please contact the clinic.
