QD Clinic

Juvelook Volumein Gangnam, Seoul

Juvelook Volume uses larger PDLLA microparticles than Juvelook Skin, placed in the deep dermis or subdermal layer for subtle structure and a mild lifting effect where fullness has softened. At QD Clinic in Gangnam, Seoul, it is often chosen for the cheeks, temples and nasolabial folds. A session usually takes about 20–40 minutes including numbing. (Results vary by individual.)

Who it’s for

  • Cheeks or temples that have lost some fullness
  • Softened nasolabial folds where subtle support helps
  • Those who want structure and skin quality together, developing gradually
  • People who prefer a collagen-stimulating approach over a traditional filler

Whether Volume or another approach suits the area is confirmed during consultation.

How it works

Juvelook Volume uses larger PDLLA microparticles than Juvelook Skin, placed in the deep dermis or subdermal layer. The hyaluronic acid gives an immediate softening effect, while the larger PDLLA particles are thought to prompt firmer collagen support over the following months, giving subtle structure and a mild lifting effect. Because it works gradually through collagen rather than only filling space, it differs from traditional hyaluronic-acid fillers; the two can be discussed together at consultation.

THE MECHANISM, STEP BY STEP

  • 01Larger PDLLA particles, placed deeper

    Juvelook Volume uses larger PDLLA microparticles than Juvelook Skin, placed in the deep dermis or subdermal layer.

  • 02Softening now, structure over time

    The hyaluronic acid gives an immediate softening effect, while the larger PDLLA particles are thought to prompt firmer collagen support over the following months.

  • 03Structure through collagen, not only filling

    Because it builds subtle structure through gradual collagen rather than only filling space, it differs from a traditional hyaluronic-acid filler.

  • 04Why change is gradual

    The lifting effect is subtle and develops over the months after treatment as collagen support builds, rather than at once. (Results vary by individual.)

Treatment areas

Cheeks (mid-face)
Where fullness has softened over time.
Temples
Hollowing at the temples, for subtle support.
Nasolabial folds
Softened smile-line area, decided at consultation.

What the procedure is like

  1. 1Consultation and assessment of the area
  2. 2Cleansing and numbing cream
  3. 3Injections in the deep dermis or subdermal layer
  4. 4Cooling, soothing and aftercare guidance

Time: A session takes about 20–40 minutes, including numbing time.

Recovery & aftercare

  • Little downtime; small bumps or firmness at the injection sites may appear and usually settle within about 1–2 days.
  • Temporary redness, mild swelling, tenderness or minor bruising may occur.
  • Avoid makeup, saunas and intense exercise briefly, use sun protection, and follow the guidance we provide.

What to expect over time

A general guide to how the days and months after treatment usually unfold. Results vary by individual.

  1. DAY 0 Treatment day

    Numbing first, then injections in the deep dermis or subdermal layer. Small bumps or a firm feeling at the injection sites may appear, with mild redness or swelling.

  2. DAY 1-2 Settling

    The small bumps or firmness usually settle within about 1–2 days. Minor bruising, if any, starts to fade.

  3. WEEK 2-4 Between sessions

    Sessions are usually spaced about 4 weeks apart. Any early softening effect varies between people.

  4. OVER THE FOLLOWING MONTHS Structure builds

    As collagen support builds, subtle structure and a mild lifting effect may develop gradually. (Results vary by individual.)

  5. AFTER THE COURSE Review & maintenance

    Your doctor reviews the outcome and discusses maintenance timing based on your skin.

Sessions & results

A typical plan is about 2–3 sessions spaced roughly 4 weeks apart, with structural changes developing gradually over the following months as collagen support builds. Maintenance is considered after a period decided at consultation. (Results vary by individual.)

How it compares

These all add support or volume to the face, but they differ in how — from gradual collagen to immediate filling — so the right one depends on your goal.

Neither is “better” — they work differently and suit different goals. The right choice is decided after we assess your skin.

Safety & considerations

Possible reactions

  • Small bumps or a firm feeling at the injection sites, usually settling within about 1–2 days
  • Temporary redness, mild swelling or a flushed feeling
  • Tenderness in the treated area for a short time
  • Occasionally minor bruising at injection points

Frequently asked questions

  • Juvelook Volume is used for subtle structure and a mild lift where fullness has softened, such as the cheeks, temples and nasolabial folds. (Results vary by individual.)

  • It is a collagen-stimulating booster that also gives subtle volume through collagen support, so it differs from a traditional hyaluronic-acid filler. Which suits your goal is decided at consultation.

  • Volume uses larger particles placed deeper for subtle structure and lift, while Skin uses finer particles nearer the surface for texture and glow. The right one is chosen at consultation.

  • Structural changes develop over the following months, and duration varies with the area and the person. A plan is discussed at consultation. (Results vary by individual.)

  • Many people have about 2–3 sessions spaced 4 weeks apart. Your plan is decided at consultation. (Results vary by individual.)

  • Yes. Our doctors consult in English directly, and 中文 / 日本語 can be arranged in advance. Tell us your language on WhatsApp before your visit.

Often considered together

Treatments that are sometimes planned alongside this one, decided at consultation.

Hyaluronic-acid filler

For areas needing immediate volume, a traditional HA filler fills space directly, which differs from Volume’s gradual collagen support — the two can be discussed together at consultation.

Ultrasound or RF lifting

Energy-based lifting addresses laxity, adding firmness alongside the subtle structure Volume supports. Sequencing is decided by your doctor.

Juvelook Skin

For overall texture and glow across the face, the finer-particle Skin type addresses skin quality that Volume does not focus on — often planned together.
