Long-Lasting Fillers in Korea: Your Comprehensive Guide

Long-lasting fillers are a popular non-surgical solution for those seeking to restore volume and smooth wrinkles with results that extend beyond the typical duration of standard hyaluronic acid (HA) fillers. In Korea, a global hub for aesthetic medicine, clinics offer specialized treatments with advanced fillers that provide enduring results.


What Makes a Filler "Long-Lasting"?

The longevity of a filler depends on its composition and how it interacts with the body. While most HA fillers last between 6-12 months, long-lasting fillers often stimulate the body's natural collagen production or have a structure that degrades more slowly. This not only provides a longer-lasting effect but also often results in a more gradual and natural-looking enhancement over time.


Popular Types of Long-Lasting Filler Treatments in Korea

  • Calcium Hydroxylapatite (CaHA) Fillers: Fillers like Radiesse are denser and provide immediate volume. They also stimulate the body's natural collagen production, leading to results that can last for 18 months or longer.
  • Poly-L-lactic Acid (PLLA) Fillers: Brands like Sculptra work as biostimulators, gradually enhancing volume by stimulating collagen synthesis over several months. Results can last for up to two years.
  • Polycaprolactone (PCL) Fillers: Considered semi-permanent, PCL fillers can last for two years or more and are also effective at stimulating collagen.
  • Specific HA Fillers: Some specialized HA fillers, like those from the Neuramis, Revolax, and Dermalax lines, are formulated with high cross-linking technology to provide a longer-lasting effect than other HA fillers.
