Full face filler

Treatment Effects

- Short-term effects: Facial hollowing is visibly improved immediately after the procedure, resulting in a fuller face and smoother contours.

- Long-term effects: Over time, hyaluronic acid is gradually absorbed and metabolized by the body, with results typically lasting 6 to 12 months. After autologous fat grafting, some of the transferred fat survives, providing longer-lasting results as the living fat becomes part of the body's tissue, helping maintain facial fullness. However, multiple sessions may be needed to achieve optimal outcomes. Overall, full-face filling can make you look younger and more revitalized, correct facial deficiencies, and enhance overall facial aesthetics.

Suitable for the following groups:

• Individuals with severe facial hollowing, such as sunken temples, narrow forehead, collapsed apple cheeks, noticeable tear troughs, and deep nasolabial folds.
• Those with facial asymmetry.
• People with limited facial fat, appearing thin.
• Individuals experiencing age-related facial fat loss leading to an aged appearance.

However, the following groups are not suitable:

• Individuals with serious systemic conditions such as cardiovascular diseases, diabetes, or coagulation disorders.
• Those with skin issues like inflammation or infection on the face.
• Women who are pregnant or breastfeeding.
• Individuals with unrealistic expectations regarding surgical outcomes.

Select Equipment

- Hyaluronic acid filler: Primarily administered via syringe injection. Reputable medical institutions use syringes that meet strict quality standards. When selecting, focus on the syringe brand and quality to ensure sterility and safety.

- Autologous fat grafting: Requires liposuction equipment such as liposuction cannulas and suction devices, as well as fat processing equipment like centrifuges. Advanced liposuction equipment enables more precise fat extraction, minimizing damage to surrounding tissues, while centrifuges effectively purify fat to enhance graft survival rates. When choosing, prioritize the brand, performance, and safety of the equipment, ensuring it has received proper regulatory certification.

Price

The cost of full-face filler treatment varies significantly due to multiple factors:

- Filler material: Full-face hyaluronic acid filler typically costs between KRW 1,600,000 and KRW 3,000,000; autologous fat filling is generally more expensive, ranging from KRW 2,400,000 to KRW 6,000,000. If collagen or advanced techniques (such as PRP or fat-derived stem cell-assisted grafting) are used, the cost will be even higher.

- Medical facility: Tier-3 hospitals charge higher fees than standard cosmetic clinics, while private aesthetic clinics show significant price fluctuations based on brand positioning.

- Physician qualifications: Procedures performed by chief physicians cost 2–3 times more than those by general practitioners; expert-level doctors charge higher technical service fees.

- Treatment areas: Combined multi-area full-face filler treatment costs more than single-area procedures. Delicate areas such as the forehead and temples involve greater technical difficulty and thus higher costs.

Expected Results

After full-face filler treatment, the face will appear fuller and more youthful, addressing facial hollows and irregular contours. However, results may vary depending on individual body type, filler material, and the physician's expertise.

Hyaluronic acid fillers offer relatively natural results but have limited duration. Autologous fat grafting provides longer-lasting outcomes, though multiple sessions may be required to achieve optimal results, and some degree of fat absorption is inevitable.

Do not expect a star-perfect appearance after filler procedures. Instead, maintain open communication with your doctor to establish realistic expectations.

Combination Therapy

Full-face dermal filler treatments can be combined with other aesthetic procedures to achieve optimal results:

- Combined with Botox: Botox effectively addresses dynamic wrinkles, such as crow's feet and glabellar lines. When paired with full-face fillers, it simultaneously corrects facial volume loss and wrinkles, resulting in a more youthful appearance.

- Combined with Laser Therapy: Laser treatments improve skin texture and pigmentation issues. When used alongside full-face fillers, this combination enhances facial contours while significantly improving overall skin quality.

Side Effects and Complications

- Hyaluronic Acid Filler:

- Local Redness, Swelling, and Pain: These are common side effects that typically resolve on their own within a few days after injection.

- Bruising: Blood vessels may be damaged during the injection process, causing localized bruising, which usually fades gradually within 1–2 weeks.

- Allergic Reactions: In rare cases, individuals may be allergic to hyaluronic acid, presenting symptoms such as rash and itching; prompt medical attention is required.

- Vascular Embolism: If hyaluronic acid is inadvertently injected into a blood vessel, it can cause vascular embolism, leading to severe complications such as skin necrosis and blindness. Although the incidence is low, the consequences are serious; therefore, procedures must be performed by qualified medical facilities and experienced physicians.

- Autologous Fat Grafting:

- Infection: Inadequate sterilization during the procedure may lead to infection, characterized by local redness, swelling, pain, and fever, requiring prompt antibiotic treatment.

- Fat Liquefaction: Some of the grafted fat may fail to survive and undergo liquefaction, resulting in localized nodules and swelling that require intervention.

- Uneven Contours: Uneven fat distribution can cause irregularities in facial contours, necessitating corrective procedures.

- Fat Embolism: Similar to hyaluronic acid filler, if fat enters the bloodstream, it can cause vascular embolism with potentially severe consequences.

Contraindications for the Procedure

Individuals with severe systemic conditions such as cardiovascular diseases, diabetes, or hypertension that are not under effective control.

Patients with active skin issues on the face, including inflammation, infection, or acne, should wait until fully healed before undergoing the procedure.

Women who are pregnant or breastfeeding.

Individuals with known allergies to the filling materials.

Persons with unstable psychological states or those holding unrealistic or excessively high expectations regarding surgical outcomes.

Contraindications for the Procedure

Individuals with severe systemic diseases such as cardiovascular disease, diabetes, or hypertension that are not adequately controlled.

Patients with active skin issues on the face, including inflammation, infection, or acne, should wait until these conditions are fully treated before undergoing surgery.

Pregnant or breastfeeding women.

Individuals with an allergy to the filler material.

People with unstable psychological conditions or those who have excessively high or unrealistic expectations regarding surgical outcomes.

Side Effects and Complications

- Dermal Fillers (Hyaluronic Acid):

- Localized Redness, Swelling, and Pain: These are common side effects that typically resolve spontaneously within a few days after injection.

- Bruising: Blood vessels may be damaged during the injection process, leading to localized bruising, which usually fades within 1–2 weeks.

- Allergic Reactions: In rare cases, individuals may be allergic to hyaluronic acid, presenting symptoms such as rashes and itching; prompt medical attention is required.

- Vascular Embolism: If hyaluronic acid is inadvertently injected into a blood vessel, it can cause vascular occlusion, resulting in severe complications such as skin necrosis or blindness. Although the incidence is low, the consequences are serious; therefore, treatment should only be performed at accredited medical facilities by experienced physicians.

- Autologous Fat Grafting:

- Infection: Strict aseptic techniques are essential during surgery; failure to maintain sterility may lead to infection, characterized by localized redness, swelling, pain, and fever, requiring antibiotic treatment.

- Fat Liquefaction: Some grafted fat may fail to survive and undergo liquefaction, causing localized hardening or swelling that requires further intervention.

- Irregular Contours: Uneven fat distribution can result in facial irregularities, necessitating corrective procedures.

- Fat Embolism: Similar to hyaluronic acid fillers, if fat enters the bloodstream, it may cause vascular embolism and lead to severe outcomes.

Self-Diagnosis of Symptoms

If localized redness and swelling or pain occur after the procedure and gradually subside within a few days, this may be a normal postoperative reaction. However, if redness, swelling, or pain worsen and are accompanied by symptoms such as fever, it could indicate an infection.

Bruising at the injection site typically fades gradually within 1 to 2 weeks. If bruising persists for an extended period or the affected area expands, medical attention should be sought promptly.

Irregularities or firm lumps on the face may result from uneven filler distribution or fat liquefaction. In such cases, consult a physician for appropriate management.

- Short-term effects: Facial hollowing is visibly improved immediately after the procedure, resulting in a fuller face and smoother contours.

- Long-term effects: Over time, hyaluronic acid is gradually absorbed and metabolized by the body, with results typically lasting 6 to 12 months. After autologous fat grafting, some of the transferred fat survives, providing longer-lasting results as the living fat becomes part of the body's tissue, helping maintain facial fullness. However, multiple sessions may be needed to achieve optimal outcomes. Overall, full-face filling can make you look younger and more revitalized, correct facial deficiencies, and enhance overall facial aesthetics.

Suitable for the following groups:

• Individuals with severe facial hollowing, such as sunken temples, narrow forehead, collapsed apple cheeks, noticeable tear troughs, and deep nasolabial folds.
• Those with facial asymmetry.
• People with limited facial fat, appearing thin.
• Individuals experiencing age-related facial fat loss leading to an aged appearance.

However, the following groups are not suitable:

• Individuals with serious systemic conditions such as cardiovascular diseases, diabetes, or coagulation disorders.
• Those with skin issues like inflammation or infection on the face.
• Women who are pregnant or breastfeeding.
• Individuals with unrealistic expectations regarding surgical outcomes.

Select Equipment

- Hyaluronic acid filler: Primarily administered via syringe injection. Reputable medical institutions use syringes that meet strict quality standards. When selecting, focus on the syringe brand and quality to ensure sterility and safety.

- Autologous fat grafting: Requires liposuction equipment such as liposuction cannulas and suction devices, as well as fat processing equipment like centrifuges. Advanced liposuction equipment enables more precise fat extraction, minimizing damage to surrounding tissues, while centrifuges effectively purify fat to enhance graft survival rates. When choosing, prioritize the brand, performance, and safety of the equipment, ensuring it has received proper regulatory certification.

Price

The cost of full-face filler treatment varies significantly due to multiple factors:

- Filler material: Full-face hyaluronic acid filler typically costs between KRW 1,600,000 and KRW 3,000,000; autologous fat filling is generally more expensive, ranging from KRW 2,400,000 to KRW 6,000,000. If collagen or advanced techniques (such as PRP or fat-derived stem cell-assisted grafting) are used, the cost will be even higher.

- Medical facility: Tier-3 hospitals charge higher fees than standard cosmetic clinics, while private aesthetic clinics show significant price fluctuations based on brand positioning.

- Physician qualifications: Procedures performed by chief physicians cost 2–3 times more than those by general practitioners; expert-level doctors charge higher technical service fees.

- Treatment areas: Combined multi-area full-face filler treatment costs more than single-area procedures. Delicate areas such as the forehead and temples involve greater technical difficulty and thus higher costs.

Expected Results

After full-face filler treatment, the face will appear fuller and more youthful, addressing facial hollows and irregular contours. However, results may vary depending on individual body type, filler material, and the physician's expertise.

Hyaluronic acid fillers offer relatively natural results but have limited duration. Autologous fat grafting provides longer-lasting outcomes, though multiple sessions may be required to achieve optimal results, and some degree of fat absorption is inevitable.

Do not expect a star-perfect appearance after filler procedures. Instead, maintain open communication with your doctor to establish realistic expectations.

Combination Therapy

Full-face dermal filler treatments can be combined with other aesthetic procedures to achieve optimal results:

- Combined with Botox: Botox effectively addresses dynamic wrinkles, such as crow's feet and glabellar lines. When paired with full-face fillers, it simultaneously corrects facial volume loss and wrinkles, resulting in a more youthful appearance.

- Combined with Laser Therapy: Laser treatments improve skin texture and pigmentation issues. When used alongside full-face fillers, this combination enhances facial contours while significantly improving overall skin quality.

Side Effects and Complications

- Hyaluronic Acid Filler:

- Local Redness, Swelling, and Pain: These are common side effects that typically resolve on their own within a few days after injection.

- Bruising: Blood vessels may be damaged during the injection process, causing localized bruising, which usually fades gradually within 1–2 weeks.

- Allergic Reactions: In rare cases, individuals may be allergic to hyaluronic acid, presenting symptoms such as rash and itching; prompt medical attention is required.

- Vascular Embolism: If hyaluronic acid is inadvertently injected into a blood vessel, it can cause vascular embolism, leading to severe complications such as skin necrosis and blindness. Although the incidence is low, the consequences are serious; therefore, procedures must be performed by qualified medical facilities and experienced physicians.

- Autologous Fat Grafting:

- Infection: Inadequate sterilization during the procedure may lead to infection, characterized by local redness, swelling, pain, and fever, requiring prompt antibiotic treatment.

- Fat Liquefaction: Some of the grafted fat may fail to survive and undergo liquefaction, resulting in localized nodules and swelling that require intervention.

- Uneven Contours: Uneven fat distribution can cause irregularities in facial contours, necessitating corrective procedures.

- Fat Embolism: Similar to hyaluronic acid filler, if fat enters the bloodstream, it can cause vascular embolism with potentially severe consequences.

Contraindications for the Procedure

Individuals with severe systemic conditions such as cardiovascular diseases, diabetes, or hypertension that are not under effective control.

Patients with active skin issues on the face, including inflammation, infection, or acne, should wait until fully healed before undergoing the procedure.

Women who are pregnant or breastfeeding.

Individuals with known allergies to the filling materials.

Persons with unstable psychological states or those holding unrealistic or excessively high expectations regarding surgical outcomes.

Contraindications for the Procedure

Individuals with severe systemic diseases such as cardiovascular disease, diabetes, or hypertension that are not adequately controlled.

Patients with active skin issues on the face, including inflammation, infection, or acne, should wait until these conditions are fully treated before undergoing surgery.

Pregnant or breastfeeding women.

Individuals with an allergy to the filler material.

People with unstable psychological conditions or those who have excessively high or unrealistic expectations regarding surgical outcomes.

Side Effects and Complications

- Dermal Fillers (Hyaluronic Acid):

- Localized Redness, Swelling, and Pain: These are common side effects that typically resolve spontaneously within a few days after injection.

- Bruising: Blood vessels may be damaged during the injection process, leading to localized bruising, which usually fades within 1–2 weeks.

- Allergic Reactions: In rare cases, individuals may be allergic to hyaluronic acid, presenting symptoms such as rashes and itching; prompt medical attention is required.

- Vascular Embolism: If hyaluronic acid is inadvertently injected into a blood vessel, it can cause vascular occlusion, resulting in severe complications such as skin necrosis or blindness. Although the incidence is low, the consequences are serious; therefore, treatment should only be performed at accredited medical facilities by experienced physicians.

- Autologous Fat Grafting:

- Infection: Strict aseptic techniques are essential during surgery; failure to maintain sterility may lead to infection, characterized by localized redness, swelling, pain, and fever, requiring antibiotic treatment.

- Fat Liquefaction: Some grafted fat may fail to survive and undergo liquefaction, causing localized hardening or swelling that requires further intervention.

- Irregular Contours: Uneven fat distribution can result in facial irregularities, necessitating corrective procedures.

- Fat Embolism: Similar to hyaluronic acid fillers, if fat enters the bloodstream, it may cause vascular embolism and lead to severe outcomes.

Self-Diagnosis of Symptoms

If localized redness and swelling or pain occur after the procedure and gradually subside within a few days, this may be a normal postoperative reaction. However, if redness, swelling, or pain worsen and are accompanied by symptoms such as fever, it could indicate an infection.

Bruising at the injection site typically fades gradually within 1 to 2 weeks. If bruising persists for an extended period or the affected area expands, medical attention should be sought promptly.

Irregularities or firm lumps on the face may result from uneven filler distribution or fat liquefaction. In such cases, consult a physician for appropriate management.
