Overview
What are facial fillers?
Fillers are injectable gels that add volume beneath the skin. Most are hyaluronic acid (HA), a sugar naturally present in skin, cross-linked so that it lasts months rather than days and reversible with the enzyme hyaluronidase. Others, such as Radiesse and Sculptra, stimulate your own collagen rather than filling directly. Used well, fillers restore what age has taken from the mid-face and temples, soften etched folds, refine the nose, chin and jawline, and, with body-grade products, smooth hip dips or round the shoulders.
How fillers work at Oaro
At Oaro Dermatology Clinic in Apgujeong, Seoul, every filler treatment is planned and performed by Dr. Chang-hyun Kim, a board-certified dermatologist and member of the Korean Filler Society whose specialties include hyaluronic-acid fillers. The consultation covers the whole face, not just the area you came in for, so that volume goes where it improves balance most. Products are opened in front of you, pricing is itemised per cc, hyaluronidase is kept on site, and written aftercare and a review are included. Fillers are frequently combined with injectable treatments such as Nabota botulinum toxin, with skin boosters for texture, or with lifting and laser treatments when laxity rather than volume is the issue.

Treatment goals
Common goals for facial fillers
Restoring lost volume
Temples, cheeks and under-eye hollows that have deflated with age are refilled so the face looks rested rather than filled.
Refining contours
Nose, chin and jawline filler adjust proportion and profile without surgery.
Softening folds and lines
Nasolabial folds, marionette lines and static wrinkles are lifted from beneath.
Shaping the body
Body-grade fillers smooth hip dips, round shoulders and add subtle gluteal volume.

FAQ
Frequently asked questions
What are fillers made of?
Most are cross-linked hyaluronic acid, a substance naturally found in skin, which is reversible with hyaluronidase. Radiesse and Sculptra are collagen stimulators used where gradual thickening is preferred.
How long do fillers last?
Six to twelve months in mobile areas such as the lips, twelve to eighteen months in the cheeks, chin and nose, and up to two years for body fillers.
Do fillers hurt?
Numbing cream and lidocaine within the gel keep discomfort low; most patients describe pressure rather than pain.
Can fillers be dissolved?
HA fillers can be dissolved with hyaluronidase within days. Collagen stimulators cannot, which is why they are used conservatively.
Are fillers in Seoul safe for international visitors?
Yes, when performed by a board-certified dermatologist or plastic surgeon with genuine products. Consult directly with the doctor, keep your receipt and arrange a review before you fly.
