Question 1

Which countries are Restylane and Belotero from?

Accepted Answer

Restylane is a Hyaluronic acid filler from Galderma, developed and manufactured in Uppsala, Sweden. Belotero is a Swiss Hyaluronic acid filler supplied by Merz Aesthetics. They are premium, high-quality filler that are considered the most popular and highly regarded for their quality and safety worldwide.

Question 2

How is Restylane different from other Hyaluronic acid filler?

Accepted Answer

Restylane is not a filler made with only one texture. Depending on the product line, NASHA technology and OBT technology are applied.

The NASHA line can be used for the purpose of relatively clearly supporting shape and creating contours, while the OBT line can be selected for flexible and natural movement in areas that move according to facial expressions. Therefore, even with the same Restylane, the tactile feel and suitable treatment areas vary depending on the specific product used.

Question 3

What are the characteristics of Belotero?

Accepted Answer

Belotero is a Swiss filler that uses patented CPM technology designed to allow the hyaluronic acid gel to integrate naturally into the tissue.

In Korea, there are four product lineups: Soft, Balance, Intense, and Volume, allowing for product selection based on the purpose of the procedure, ranging from fine lines to facial volume augmentation. However, not all Belotero products are used at the same depth or on the same areas.

Question 4

Why does Dasibomnal Clinic not use just one brand, but instead uses both Restylane and Belotero?

Accepted Answer

For filler, the specific physical properties of the product used for a particular area are more important than brand recognition.

Areas requiring contouring and structural support, such as the nose and chin; areas with high mobility due to facial expressions, such as the lips; and areas with thin skin where even minor irregularities are easily visible, such as under the eyes, all require different characteristics of filler.

Our clinic does not use a single product uniformly for all areas; instead, we select the most appropriate product from the diverse Restylane and Belotero product lines based on the patient's facial structure and the depth of injection. The reason we carry both brands is to provide a wider range of options.

Question 5

Is Restylane a firm filler and Belotero a soft filler?

Accepted Answer

It is not accurate to simply categorize the entire brand by saying “Restylane is firm and Belotero is soft.”

Within the Restylane line, there are products suitable for structural support as well as flexible products, and Belotero also has products with different physical properties ranging from Soft to Volume. Therefore, rather than judging solely by the brand name, you should check the specific product name being used along with the injection site.

Question 6

Which products do you use for each area?

Accepted Answer

During the consultation, we first assess skin thickness, bone structure, fat volume, the presence of any existing filler, and your desired changes.

For areas requiring clear contouring or projection, we select products with structural support in mind; for the lips or areas involved in facial expressions, we choose products that account for movement and flexibility. For areas with thin skin, we adjust not only the product but also the injection volume and depth more precisely, as minor irregularities and visibility of the product can be more noticeable.

The exact product is not determined solely by photographs; it is decided after a direct examination by the medical staff.

Question 7

Can I choose between Restylane or Belotero for my preferred brand?

Accepted Answer

If you have a preferred brand or a product you were satisfied with in the past, please let us know during your consultation. We prioritize the patient's preferences.

However, even within the same brand, characteristics vary by product, and the product you desire may not be suitable for the specific area or your skin condition. In such cases, the medical staff will explain the reasons for their selection and suggest alternatives before making a final decision on the product.

If necessary, Restylane and Belotero can be used differently for specific areas even within a single procedure. This does not mean mixing the two products in one syringe, but rather using the appropriate product for each distinct area.

Question 8

How many cc should be injected to achieve a natural result?

Accepted Answer

1cc is a unit of injection volume, not a unit of absolute effect. Even with the same 1cc, the results differ significantly depending on whether it is used in a single area like the lips or divided between both temples or the anterior cheekbones.

Rather than recommending a large volume from the start, our clinic assesses facial asymmetry and volume deficiency before suggesting the necessary amount. For areas prone to overcorrection, we do not attempt to complete the procedure in one session; instead, we determine the need for additional correction after the initial swelling has subsided.

Question 9

Can I receive filler while traveling in Korea and depart immediately afterward?

Accepted Answer

filler While it is often possible to return to daily activities immediately after the procedure, swelling, bruising, tenderness, and temporary asymmetry may persist for several days to about two weeks. In particular, swelling around the lips and eyes can be relatively noticeable, so it is advisable to allow sufficient time before any important photo shoots or events.

Additionally, although very rare, vascular complications require prompt medical attention; therefore, it is recommended to schedule your plans so that you can monitor your progress after the procedure rather than immediately embarking on long-distance travel or departing the country.

If you experience a sudden increase in pain, skin turning white, gray or purple reticulated discoloration, blisters, or changes in vision after the procedure, do not wait for it to subside as normal swelling; you must contact the clinic immediately.

Question 10

How long do the bruising or swelling last?

Accepted Answer

Mild swelling, redness, and tenderness around the injection site typically subside within a few days, while bruising may be visible for about 1 to 2 weeks depending on skin condition and the treatment area. Official Restylane patient guidance states that reactions such as bruising, swelling, pain, tenderness, redness, and itching generally improve within one week, and Belotero also explains that common injection site reactions are mostly mild to moderate and typically resolve within 7 days.

However, swelling may be more noticeable or persist longer in the lips, under-eye area, and tear troughs, and the recovery period may be longer if multiple areas are treated or a large volume of product is used. If you have important photo shoots, events, or travel plans, it is recommended to allow at least 1 to 2 weeks of buffer time if possible.

If swelling worsens over time, or if it is accompanied by severe pain, heat, skin discoloration, blisters, or vision abnormalities, do not wait for the typical recovery process and contact the clinic immediately.

Question 11

What kind of product is Rejuviel filler?

Accepted Answer

Rejuviel is a Hyaluronic acid filler line developed by PharmaResearch, which is well-known for Rejuran. It is based on French hyaluronic acid raw materials, and products with different physical properties can be selected depending on the treatment area and the required volume. It is used to naturally supplement sunken areas, wrinkles, and contours of the face, and customized design considering facial shape and skin thickness is important.

Question 12

How do Rejuviel W, V, and C differ from each other?

Accepted Answer

Rejuviel products vary in viscoelasticity and support, so they are selected based on the purpose and area of the procedure. Softer formulations can be considered for areas requiring delicate correction, such as the lips or fine lines, while firmer formulations are suitable for areas requiring volume and contour enhancement, such as nasolabial folds, the forehead, temples, anterior cheekbones, and the chin. The actual product selection is determined after assessing skin thickness, bone structure, the condition of existing filler, and the desired degree of change.

Question 13

Can Rejuviel filler be administered for a natural-looking result?

Accepted Answer

The natural look of filler depends not only on the product itself, but also on the injection site, depth, dosage, and overall facial design. At Dasibomnal Clinic Sinchon, rather than injecting a fixed dosage uniformly, we carefully supplement only the necessary areas by checking facial symmetry, expression movements, and existing volume. We aim for a subtle sense of dimension and balance that enhances the strengths of your original face, rather than an overly inflated look. Swelling, bruising, or tenderness may occur temporarily after the procedure, and there are individual differences. Among various cosmetic procedures, the satisfaction level for filler can vary significantly depending on the practitioner's skill. At 'Dasibomnal Clinic Sinchon,' a dermatology clinic in the Sinchon and Hongdae area of Seoul, our representative director—who published an SCI-level international journal paper on fillers in 2026—is on-site and personally participates in consultations and procedures, striving to provide safer and more satisfying results.
