How to Prepare for Botox & Filler at RE:BERRY Gangnam
A step-by-step guide answering the most common botox and fillers FAQ about the treatment process.
Research & Pre-Consultation (Before Arrival)
Read this botox and fillers FAQ thoroughly to understand pricing, products, and what to expect. Contact RE:BERRY Gangnam via WhatsApp, LINE, WeChat, or KakaoTalk in your preferred language to discuss your goals. Share photos of your concerns for preliminary assessment. Our coordination team responds within 2 hours during business hours (10 AM – 8 PM KST, 365 days). Pre-booking is recommended but walk-in appointments are also accepted daily at RE:BERRY Gangnam.
In-Person Consultation & Injection Planning
Upon arrival, Dr. Yoon-Gon Ryu or Dr. Yejin Oh performs a 15-minute facial analysis examining 42 anatomical landmarks. A digital injection map is created showing exact botox placement points and filler volumes for each zone. You will see the products before they are opened — every Allergan Botox vial, Juvederm syringe, Sculptra vial, and Radiesse syringe is verified in front of you with batch numbers recorded. This consultation is complimentary and included with every botox and filler treatment at RE:BERRY Gangnam.
Treatment & Immediate Aftercare
Topical numbing cream is applied for 20 minutes before injection. Botox takes 5-15 minutes per zone; filler takes 15-30 minutes depending on the area and technique (needle vs cannula). After injection, Dr. Ryu checks symmetry under multiple lighting conditions and provides micro-adjustments if needed. You receive a printed aftercare guide in your language, a cooling pack, and emergency contact information. Most patients leave RE:BERRY Gangnam within 60 minutes of arriving and resume normal activities immediately.
Follow-Up & Long-Term Care
A complimentary 2-week follow-up appointment is included to assess botox onset (full effect at 10-14 days) and filler integration. For international visitors who have returned home, follow-up is available via video consultation through WhatsApp or LINE. RE:BERRY Gangnam provides a personalized maintenance schedule: wrinkle botox every 3-4 months, masseter botox every 4-6 months, HA filler touch-ups every 6-18 months. Future visits receive priority booking and loyalty pricing.

Clinical Science Referenced in This Botox & Fillers FAQ
Peer-reviewed studies supporting the safety, efficacy, and longevity claims made throughout this botox and fillers FAQ.
Botulinum Toxin Safety and Efficacy Data
The safety foundation of this botox and fillers FAQ rests on decades of clinical evidence. OnabotulinumtoxinA (Allergan Botox) has been FDA-approved for cosmetic use since 2002 and MFDS-approved in Korea since 2005. A pivotal multicenter trial demonstrated 74% complete response rate for moderate-to-severe glabellar lines at 30 days, with a mean duration of effect of 120 days (Carruthers et al., 2002). The most comprehensive safety analysis to date — covering 8,787 patients across 36 randomized controlled trials — found no serious systemic adverse events attributable to cosmetic botulinum toxin injection (Naumann et al., 2013). At RE:BERRY Gangnam, the micro-dosing protocol used by Dr. Yoon-Gon Ryu distributes smaller quantities across more injection points, further reducing the already low complication risk while maintaining wrinkle reduction efficacy.
Dermal Filler Safety and Longevity Evidence
Hyaluronic acid fillers used at RE:BERRY Gangnam — primarily the Juvederm Vycross range — demonstrate excellent safety profiles across multiple clinical studies. A systematic review of 12,536 cosmetic filler procedures found a serious adverse event rate of 0.07% with no deaths or permanent disfigurement (Alam et al., 2018). Juvederm Voluma’s Vycross technology, which cross-links high and low molecular weight HA chains, achieves superior durability: a 2-year multicenter study showed 84% of patients maintained clinically meaningful improvement at 18 months post-injection in the midface (Jones et al., 2015). The reversibility of HA fillers with hyaluronidase provides an additional safety margin that non-HA products cannot offer — a critical factor emphasized throughout this botox and fillers FAQ for first-time patients.
Biostimulatory Injectable Evidence
Sculptra (poly-L-lactic acid) and Radiesse (calcium hydroxylapatite) address volume loss through biostimulatory mechanisms rather than simple space-filling. A controlled histological study demonstrated that Sculptra injection produced a 66.5% increase in dermal collagen type I content at 6 months, with neocollagenesis persisting at 24 months post-treatment (Goldberg et al., 2013). Radiesse microspheres act as a scaffold for tissue integration while simultaneously stimulating fibroblast activity and collagen deposition. For patients asking about long-term value in this botox and fillers FAQ, the biostimulatory products offer superior cost-effectiveness over multiple years compared to repeated HA filler sessions, though they lack the reversibility advantage of hyaluronic acid-based products.

Real Patients Who Found This Botox & Fillers FAQ Helpful
“I read every question on this botox and fillers FAQ page before booking my flight to Seoul. Knowing the exact prices — ₩19,000 for wrinkle botox, ₩450,000 for lip filler — helped me budget precisely. Dr. Ryu answered my remaining questions during the consultation and the results were exactly as described. No surprises, no hidden fees.”
“As a first-timer, the product comparison table in this FAQ convinced me to try Sculptra instead of regular filler. At ₩590,000 per vial, it seemed like better value for my age (47). Three months later, the gradual collagen effect is remarkable — my skin looks naturally fuller without that ‘just filled’ appearance. Dr. Oh was incredibly patient explaining everything.”
“I was worried about getting botox abroad but the safety data referenced in this FAQ — 99.93% safety rate from JAMA — reassured me. The batch verification process at RE:BERRY Gangnam was impressive. They opened every product in front of me and showed me the holographic seals. Best skincare investment I have made.”
