How the approach works.

The official page describes polycaprolactone microspheres in a gel carrier. Assessment includes previous injections, the intended area and the implications of choosing this material.

Understanding the anatomy

AI-generated educational illustrations, not patient photographs or treatment results. Simplified and not to scale; they do not show a recommended injection depth or an individual treatment plan.

PCL and the collagen response

These two views connect the skin structure with the PCL material described by Clair. They explain selected concepts, not treatment stages or a promised result.

  1. Skin cutaway with a central crease, a blue fibrous layer and deeper yellow tissue.

    Collagen loss in a skin section

    Clair uses this skin section to illustrate collagen loss beneath a crease. It is a simplified drawing, not a scan of a patient.

  2. Magnified conceptual view of pale spheres, purple cells and fine blue fibres.

    PCL microspheres and collagen

    The source describes collagen formation around PCL microspheres. The material and expected response should be discussed during assessment.

What the consultation considers.

  • Facial volume

  • Material choice

  • Previous injectables

This is a starting point for a consultation, not an individual treatment recommendation.

Recovery, risks & limits.

Some reactions can be temporary; complications can also require treatment. This is not an exhaustive list.

Bruising, swelling, tenderness, lumps or delayed reactions can occur.

Infection and an unsatisfactory or uneven result may need further care.

Unintended injection into a blood vessel can cause tissue injury and, in facial injections, vision loss or stroke.

Your timeline is individual.

Procedure time, anaesthesia, follow-up and return travel depend on your examination and the final plan. Confirm them before paying for flights or accommodation.

Recovery and results vary. Your clinician should explain the procedure-specific risks and aftercare before you decide.

If you develop severe or worsening symptoms after treatment, seek medical attention rather than waiting for an online reply.

Dr. JinHo Han

Representative surgeon · Plastic surgery specialist

A personal consultation with a plastic surgery specialist. Discuss your facial features, skin condition and treatment preferences before deciding on a plan.

Your questions, answered.

Can all injectables be managed in the same way?

No. Materials differ. Ask specifically about the proposed product, its limitations and the options if you are unhappy with the result or develop a complication.

How long should I stay in Korea?

Procedure time, anaesthesia, follow-up and return travel depend on your examination and the final plan. Confirm them before paying for flights or accommodation.

Can I choose the procedure before an examination?

You can explore your options first. The final plan requires an examination, a discussion of alternatives and informed consent. Choosing no treatment is also an option.

How is the cost decided?

The clinic confirms the proposed method, treatment area and product or equipment before giving an individual quote. Ask what is included in follow-up care.

What should I disclose before treatment?

Tell the clinician about previous procedures, implants, medication, allergies and health conditions. Bring available details of earlier injections or surgery.
