Fillers, they seem simple,

Are there any specific things to keep in mind?

Hello, this is Baek Doo-san from Forever Clinic Cheongju Branch.

​

Many people are satisfied with the changed facial lines or volume in a short time after filler injections.

​

The satisfaction rate is high because it can soften and define your features with a relatively simple procedure.

​

​

Especially since you can return to your daily life

without any significant recovery period,

it is one of the reasons

why many people choose it.

​

​

However, as much as it creates a noticeable change, post-procedure care is equally important to maintain the results for a long time and recover without side effects.

​

Today, I will explain the precautions after filler injections step by step.

​

The biggest feature

is undoubtedly the 'immediate change'.

Deep wrinkles or sunken areas on the face are usually difficult to cover with makeup.

​

The forehead, nasolabial folds, under-eyes, and chin can make you look older than your actual age if the volume decreases.

​

Fillers inject hyaluronic acid or other biocompatible substances into the skin to fill these sunken areas.

​

Since you can feel the change immediately after the procedure, it is often recommended for those preparing for weddings, photo shoots, or important gatherings.

​

Also, it is completed in a short time without anesthesia, with minimal bruising or swelling, and relatively natural results can be expected.

​

However, to ensure these benefits are well-maintained, you must follow a few post-filler injection precautions.

​

Bruise and swelling management

is essential.

Since most fillers are injected directly into the skin with a syringe, small wounds are created.

​

If small blood vessels are damaged during this process, bruising or swelling may occur.

​

Bruising is particularly likely in the forehead, under the eyes, and around the mouth, where blood vessels are densely distributed.

​

In such cases, cold compresses for about 48 hours can be helpful. They reduce bruising and swelling and alleviate pain.

​

Conversely, after about 3 days, switching to warm compresses to aid circulation is recommended.

​

Pressure or irritation

can cause shape deformation.

Occasionally, people report that the shape has changed after wearing a tight hat or securing a mask too tightly after a chin filler.

​

Fillers have a certain viscoelasticity, but if continuous external pressure is applied, their position can shift slightly.

​

​

Especially for areas where contour is important,

maintaining the initial shape

is crucial.

​

​

Therefore, you should refrain from actions that involve strong pressure or pressing for at least a week.

​

Also, for the first few days, the face may appear swollen, uneven, or asymmetrical.

​

In most cases, this subsides naturally over time, so you don't need to worry too much.

​

However, if the shape still looks unnatural after the swelling has completely subsided, a touch-up may be necessary, so it is best to get a prompt diagnosis from a medical professional.

​

If you feel pain or heat,

it needs to be checked.

Generally, filler injections are not very painful, but in very rare cases, they can compress or block blood vessels.

​

In such cases, severe pain, redness, heat, or skin discoloration may occur in the affected area.

​

These reactions can be fully recovered with prompt treatment, but they can lead to tissue damage over time, so you must visit a medical institution.

​

If you feel something is wrong, even if you don't know what it is, don't hesitate to consult with a medical professional.

​

​

While it can create changes in a short period of time,

​

​

the post-filler injection

precautions also determine

the results.

​

​

Therefore, the satisfaction level can also vary. Please refer to the information provided today to experience more natural and stable results.

​

Thank you.
