What are eyebrow fillers?

Eyebrow fillers are minimally invasive injections (often hyaluronic-acid-based) placed around the brow-area (above the eyelid, tail of brow, temples) to:

• Restore volume or fullness in the brow region (which may be lost with age)
• Lift the tail of the brow and open up the eye area
• Improve symmetry between brows and create a more defined arch or outline
• Provide a non-surgical alternative to a brow lift or thread lift in mild to moderate cases

    How is the procedure typically performed?

        Here’s what to expect:

• Consultation & assessment: A practitioner examines your brow shape, hollow areas, skin laxity, facial symmetry and discusses your goals.
• Preparation: Topical numbing cream may be applied to enhance comfort.
• Injection: Using a fine needle or blunt cannula, filler is placed into targeted zones around the eyebrow/temple region. Care is taken to ensure even distribution and avoid lumps.
• Post-injection: You’ll see immediate effect (volume, lift) though final shape settles over days as swelling reduces.
• Downtime: Very minimal. Some redness, swelling or bruising may occur but typically resolves in 24-72 hours.

     Typical cost in Seoul

       While exact pricing will vary based on clinic, filler brand, amount used and complexity, here’s a ballpark:

• For eyebrow filler alone (some clinics list as “brow enhancement/volume restoration”): roughly ₩500,000–₩1,500,000 KRW (≈ US$400–US$1,200) in Seoul.
• Factors influencing cost: type of filler (standard hyaluronic acid vs collagen-stimulating), number of syringes, whether it’s combined with other treatments (temple filler, forehead filler, brow lift threads).

    Who is a good candidate — and who may need caution?

  Good candidates:

• People with mild-to-moderate brow sagging or hollowing above the brows
• Those who prefer non-surgical, minimally invasive options
• Candidates seeking a refined, natural lift rather than dramatic change

  Consider caution if:

• There is significant brow ptosis or heavy eyelids — such cases may need a surgical lift or thread lift for optimal results. Gangnam Skin Clinic
• You have very thin skin or previous filler in the brow area — increased risk of visible filler or irregularities
• You take medications that increase bruising or have vascular/bleeding risks — always disclose to the practitioner

    Aftercare & tips for best results

• Avoid touching or massaging the treated area for about 24 hours post‐treatment.
• Avoid intense physical activity or sweating for 24-48 hours so filler settles well.
• If swelling or bruising occurs, cold compresses can help but avoid direct pressure.
• Final results generally appear once swelling subsides (in ~1–2 weeks) and may last 9-18 months (depending on filler type and metabolism)
• Plan maintenance: If you like the effect, you may need periodic top-up treatments.

    Things to verify when choosing a provider

• That the injector is board-certified, experienced in brow/upper-face anatomy (the eyebrow/temple region requires precision)
• That they use approved filler brands and can show before/after photos of similar cases
• That the consultation covers risks, realistic expectations, amount of filler needed and possible alternatives
• That you can communicate in a language you’re comfortable with (if you’re an international visitor)
• Transparent pricing, including what happens if revision is needed
