Hello.

This is Kim Jangju from Beauty Doctors.

​

​

Recently, many people are considering Botox in Hongdae.

​

​

Botox may seem like a simple procedure, but

it may not show the expected results, or

it can yield unnatural results.

​

​

Today, for those planning Botox in Hongdae,

I'll summarize two essential points that you need to know.

​

​

I will introduce before-and-after comparison photos of Botox in Hongdae. The before photo was taken on August 1, 2025, and the after photo was taken on August 22, 2025. Please note that the photos are for reference only, and results may vary from person to person. The changes after treatment may also depend on skin condition and muscle structure. These photos were taken under the same lighting and pose and do not guarantee specific results, so please refer to them accordingly.

Principle and Effect of Botox

Botox works by using botulinum toxin to

restrict the movement of specific muscles.

​

​

It is highly effective in improving wrinkles, and

areas that appear large due to muscular development can

be expected to become slimmer.

​

​

Botox in Hongdae is used not only for the forehead, frown lines, and around the eyes,

but also in various areas such as the jawline, trapezius, and calves.

​

​

The effects generally last around 3 months.

​

​

As time passes, muscle movement returns, so

it is necessary to repeat Botox in Hongdae at regular intervals.

​

​

However, if you receive it too frequently or

use inappropriate doses,

tolerance or side effects may occur.

​

​

Therefore, setting the exact location and

appropriate dosage is crucial.

​

​

Key Points

1. Correct Location Injection

​

The effectiveness of Botox ultimately depends on how accurately the location is

where the medication is injected.

​

​

Because there are dozens of muscles involved in the face,

when making a facial expression,

multiple muscles work at the same time.

​

​

If the injection site is even slightly off,

it can lead to unwanted results.

​

​

For example, when trying to improve eye wrinkles,

if the injection site is too close,

​

it can lead to losing charm when you smile or

make your expression awkward.

​

​

If Botox is injected during the Botox in Hongdae procedure without accurately identifying the location and thickness of the masseter muscle,

it may become difficult to open your mouth or

asymmetry may occur.

​

​

These issues may resolve over time, but

you may have to endure discomfort for at least a few months.

​

​

Therefore, it is essential to receive treatment at the correct location from the beginning.

​

​

You need to get an accurate diagnosis of your condition,

and confirm that it is injected into the right location for you.

2. Appropriate Dosage Injection

​

Getting Botox too much

is not a good treatment.

​

​

Injecting excessive amounts can lead to unnatural and

awkward results.

​

​

For example, when you smile, your expression may stiffen, or

unwanted areas may also be affected.

​

​

Additionally, receiving excessive doses frequently can lead to tolerance.

​

​

Once tolerance develops, it may be difficult to expect the effects of Botox for many years.

​

​

Therefore, it is important to maintain an appropriate dosage.

​

​

When treating multiple areas simultaneously,

it is advisable to discuss thoroughly with the medical staff,

​

and accurately inject the appropriate amount for each area.

Q&A

Q1. I am receiving Botox for the first time,

how many sessions should I receive?

​

For first-time Botox users,

usually, one session is sufficient to see the results.

​

However, to maintain the effects longer,

it is advisable to receive sessions every three months.

​

The number of sessions may vary depending on the condition of individual wrinkles,

and degree of muscle development.

Q2. Does the effect of Botox show immediately?

​

Botox does not show immediate effects.

​

Typically, after about 3-7 days,

the effects will begin to show.

​

The maximum effect is usually seen after about 2 weeks.

​

Therefore, rather than expecting immediate results,

please note that the effects will gradually show over the next few days.

Q3. What precautions should I take after receiving Botox?

​

After receiving Botox,

it is essential to avoid excessive friction.

​

For example, you should be careful not to rub the treated area vigorously

or apply strong pressure.

​

Additionally, it is advisable to refrain from exercise or alcohol for

24 hours after the procedure.

Q4. Can I resume normal activities immediately after receiving Botox?

​

There are no significant obstacles to daily activities right after receiving Botox.

​

However, it is best to avoid intense exercise, saunas,

steam rooms, etc.

​

Other than that, you can carry on with normal activities.

Q5. Can Botox not suit my body?

​

Botox is safe for most people, but

rarely, it may cause allergic reactions or

side effects.

​

Particularly, individuals who are sensitive to medications,
pregnant women,

or nursing mothers are advised to avoid the procedure.

​

It is crucial to consult thoroughly with medical professionals before the treatment,

and inform them of your health status.
