Hello.
This is Director Hwang Jeong-hwang of Cleor Clinic Gangnam Branch.
Have you ever felt that your skin is dry from within, even after applying moisturizing products, or noticed that fine lines have become more prominent?
"Even though I consistently follow a moisturizing routine, my makeup keeps caking, and the fine lines around my pores seem to have deepened."
The upper dermis, located close to the skin's surface, is the area that stores moisture and nutrients.
As we age or accumulate external irritation,
the amount of hyaluronic acid in this layer decreases,
and as the environment that retains moisture subsides,
it creates conditions where the surface feels dry and fine lines become more visible.
Just as moisture evenly permeates dry fabric,
Belotero is a treatment that aims to restore the internal moisturizing environment by evenly distributing hyaluronic acid in the superficial dermis.
Today, I will explain what the Gangnam Belotero treatment is,
and the significance of combining Belotero Soft with Skin Botox.
What is Belotero?
👉 Belotero is a premium skin booster treatment that involves injecting Belotero Soft, manufactured using German Merz's CPM technology, into the superficial dermis and combining it with domestic Skin Botox to simultaneously refine surface hydration, fine lines, and pore conditions.
Since its launch, Belotero has been a hyaluronic acid-based medical device that has received FDA and European CE certification.
While general HA fillers use a 3-phase cross-linking process,
Belotero combines patented CPM (Cohesive Polydensified Matrix) technology with
DCLT (Dynamic Cross-Linking Technology) to achieve a balance of cohesivity, elasticity, and plasticity.
Among the Belotero series, Soft is the line with the softest viscosity, making it an option focused on surface hydration and fine line refinement when applied to the shallow dermis.
We operate this as a premium configuration by combining it with domestic Skin Botox (Micro-Botox) to address sebum secretion, pores, and fine lines simultaneously.
Technical Features of Belotero
👉 Belotero is a treatment with four core features: CPM Cohesive Polydensified Matrix technology, uniform dermal distribution, superficial action of the Soft line, and the combination with Skin Botox.
CPM Cohesive Polydensified Matrix Technology
CPM is a patented technology that incorporates various cross-linking densities within a single matrix.
Unlike general HA fillers manufactured with a single density,
Belotero is designed to mimic the natural distribution of dermal tissue,
making it a line known for high integration with the tissue.
Uniform Dermal Distribution
Thanks to CPM technology, it has the characteristic of spreading uniformly within the dermis upon injection,
creating an action structure that distributes without clumping in specific areas.
It allows for superficial injection even in thin dermis,
and it is reported that the possibility of the Tyndall effect (bluish tint) is relatively low.
Superficial Action of the Soft Line
The Belotero series is divided into Soft, Balance, Intense, and Volume based on viscosity and cross-linking density,
and Belotero uses the Soft line, which has the softest viscosity.
It is a line focused on surface hydration, fine lines, and skin texture refinement, as its viscosity allows for application in the shallow dermis.
Combination with Skin Botox
Domestic Skin Botox (Micro-Botox) is a procedure where Botulinum Toxin Type A is diluted and injected multiple times into the superficial dermis.
It is known to work by reducing sebum gland and fine muscle activity, thereby improving sebum secretion, pores, fine lines, and redness.
When combined with Belotero's moisturizing action, it creates a structure that can address surface conditions in a multi-layered way.
Belotero Effects and Advantages
👉 The core advantages of Belotero are summarized in three points: uniform distribution through CPM technology, simultaneous approach to superficial dermal hydration and fine lines, and multi-layered care through the combination with Skin Botox.
First, the uniform distribution of CPM technology.
With its patented Cohesive Polydensified Matrix structure, it has the characteristic of spreading uniformly within the dermis,
making it a line known for a low possibility of surface visibility or clumping.
Next, it approaches superficial dermal hydration and fine lines together.
As Belotero Soft acts on the superficial dermis, it fills the moisture storage environment,
and is reported to refine fine lines and skin texture simultaneously.
Finally, multi-layered care is possible through the combination with Skin Botox.
In addition to Belotero's moisturizing action, Skin Botox
addresses sebum, pores, and fine muscle activity,
operating as a configuration that manages overall surface conditions in a multi-layered manner.
Belotero Lineup
👉 At the Gangnam branch, we operate a premium skin booster line that combines 1cc of Belotero Soft and 1cc of domestic Skin Botox.
Because it is a configuration that combines Skin Botox rather than Belotero alone,
it is a structure where multi-layered care for surface conditions is carried out within a single session.
The treatment cycle suitable for your skin condition and hydration level will be determined during the pre-treatment consultation.
Who is Gangnam Belotero for?
Those who feel dry from within even after moisturizing care
Those who notice fine lines around their pores
Those whose makeup does not sit well and cakes
Those concerned about both sebum and pore conditionsThose looking for a premium line of treatment rather than a general skin booster
Side Effects and Things to Know Beforehand for Gangnam Belotero
👉 Belotero is a line aimed at maintaining a stable moisturizing environment through periodic treatments rather than a one-time procedure.
Immediately after the procedure, light swelling, bruising, tiny marks, and stinging
may accompany the treated area for a few days.
It is reported that most of these subside naturally within 5 days to a week.
Although Belotero is a line whose safety has been proven through FDA approval and numerous clinical trials since its launch,
rare allergic reactions can be reported, so please inform us during the pre-treatment consultation if you have a history of allergies.
As it is a combined Skin Botox procedure, you may temporarily feel a difference in facial muscle movement,
but it is known that most people naturally get used to it within a few days.
Please inform us in advance as the procedure may be restricted in the following cases:
If you are pregnant or breastfeeding
If there is active inflammation, herpes, or infection at the treatment site
If you have a history of allergies to hyaluronic acid or botulinum toxin ingredients
If you have been diagnosed with neuromuscular diseases such as myasthenia gravis
If you are regularly taking medications that increase bleeding tendency
⚠️ Precautions Before and After Gangnam Belotero Treatment
👉 For Gangnam Belotero, management at each stage before and after the procedure affects recovery and the feeling of results.
❓ Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)
Q. How is Belotero different from general skin boosters?
If a general skin booster is a method of injecting a single HA multiple times into the superficial dermis,
Belotero is a premium configuration that evenly distributes HA manufactured with patented CPM technology and
combines it with domestic Skin Botox to address sebum, pores, and fine muscles together.
It is classified as a line with a wider range of action.
Q. How is Belotero different from other skin boosters?
While other skin boosters have different mechanisms of action such as PN (Rejuran) or exosomes,
Belotero is mainly based on hyaluronic acid-based superficial dermal hydration,
and is a configuration that includes a combination of Skin Botox.
The main purpose is the simultaneous approach to surface hydration, fine lines, pores, and sebum.
Q. When do the effects of Belotero appear?
Belotero's moisturizing effect is usually felt as surface softness immediately after the procedure,
and the effect of the Skin Botox combination starts from 2-4 days, with the greatest change reported at the 2-4 week mark.
There are individual differences depending on skin condition.
Q. How often should I receive Belotero?
Although it depends on the skin condition, it is generally
a line that is accumulated periodically for the purpose of maintaining hydration and condition care.
The recommended cycle will be determined during the pre-treatment consultation.
Q. How much pain is involved with Belotero?
Applying anesthetic cream before the procedure is standard,
and since Belotero itself contains lidocaine,
it is reported that the pain burden during the procedure is relatively low.
Q. Can I wear makeup immediately after receiving Belotero?
Since tiny injection marks remain on the day of the procedure,
we recommend light makeup only, and full makeup from the next day.
Q. Which line of the Belotero series is used?
At the Gangnam branch, we use the Soft line, which has the softest viscosity among the Belotero series.
It is operated as a line suitable for skin booster purposes because its viscosity allows for superficial injection even in thin dermis.
Surface dryness and fine lines are not simply a result of lack of moisture,
but a result of both a decrease in the amount of hyaluronic acid in the superficial dermis and a subsidence of surface condition.
Because there is a limitation in approaching both changes with only one moisturizing care,
this is why the trend of combining HA lines that act uniformly on the superficial dermis with
Skin Botox has become established.
Belotero is a premium skin booster treatment that combines Belotero Soft, manufactured using German Merz's CPM technology, with
domestic Skin Botox.
At the Gangnam branch, we also operate various other moisture/skin booster lines.
From basic skin boosters and high-molecular skin booster lines,
domestic Lylide M lines, skin booster toxin lines that combine skin boosters and Skin Botox,
Skinvive for deep hydration purposes,
to Revive, a premium line for improving internal dryness that combines glycerol and hyaluronic acid,
different lines are operated according to your skin condition and hydration depth.
The line configuration suitable for your skin condition
will be confirmed directly during the consultation.
If you are concerned about both surface dryness and fine lines,
please feel free to visit Cleor Clinic Gangnam Branch.
Even before deciding on a procedure, we will provide detailed guidance on your skin condition and
the suitable care direction through a pre-treatment consultation.
