Quick answer

What are dermal fillers?

Dermal fillers are soft gels, most often hyaluronic acid (HA), injected under the skin to replace lost volume, lift flattened areas and smooth folds. Results are visible immediately and HA fillers can be dissolved with hyaluronidase if needed.

In Seoul, fillers are commonly used for the lips, cheeks, chin, under-eyes and nasolabial folds. For gradual collagen-building rather than instant volume, some patients choose Sculptra instead.

Your visit

How Dermal Fillers works at Umi

Every visit is doctor-led and explained in English, from the first skin check to aftercare.

Consult & face mapping
The doctor discusses your goals, checks proportions and medical history, and chooses product and amount.
Numbing
Topical cream is applied; most HA fillers also contain lidocaine.
Precise injection
Filler is placed with a fine needle or blunt cannula, shaping as we go.
Aftercare
Avoid pressing the area, saunas and alcohol for a day or two; a follow-up check can be arranged.

Before & after

How fillers restore volume

HA gel fills in where fat and collagen have thinned, lifting shadows and softening folds while binding water for a fresh look.

FAQ

Dermal Fillers questions

Do fillers look natural?

When placed conservatively in the right layers, yes. The doctor aims to restore balance rather than overfill, and can always add more at a follow-up.

Which filler brands do you use?

We use approved hyaluronic acid fillers such as Juvederm, Restylane and Belotero, chosen by area. Ask to see the packaging and lot number at your visit.

Can fillers be reversed?

Hyaluronic acid fillers can be dissolved with hyaluronidase if you are unhappy with the result or in the rare event of a complication.

Can I fly after fillers?

Usually yes, even the next day. Swelling may be slightly more noticeable on a long flight, so plan treatment a few days before departure if you can.

Do foreigners pay more?

No. International patients pay the same price as local patients at Umi Clinic.
