FAQ
Is the part that sticks out when I clench my teeth muscle?
The masseter muscle is the muscle that moves when you chew. During consultation, we compare the relaxed state and clenched state, and check the size of the muscle and left-right differences. The results of clinical trials for masseter muscle hypertrophy cannot be applied to all faces with wide jawbones. Don't try to determine the cause just by feeling it yourself.
How do I tell the difference between bone and fat?
Don't just look at the front width; you should also evaluate the chin tip, under the ears, and the thickness of the cheeks. The questions are different for the distinct contours that remain after fat loss and the treatment areas that only become prominent when chewing. The necessary tests are determined based on the examination results, and you don't need to take pictures just because you're getting cosmetic injections.
Why don't the nasolabial folds appear the same depth?
First, check if the lines change between a neutral expression and a smile. Skin folds, cheek position, and facial structure can all influence this together. Dermal filler is a medical procedure, so you should be informed about the aesthetic goal of facial lines as well as the vascular risks.
Do you only fill the lines even if the cheeks have sagged?
Shadows caused by sagging of the upper tissues may require a different plan than simply filling the groove. Explain whether the change you want is in the depth of the line or the position of the cheek. Even if you are recommended skin tightening together, it is better to receive an explanation separating the objectives of each procedure.
Which layer does Sofwave target?
The clinic's official page introduces it as an ultrasound procedure targeting the dermis. The explanation about the target layer and the changes expected on my face should be considered separately. You cannot conclude just from the device structure that skin dimpling or thermal injury will not occur on all skin types.
If there is no cheek fat, should all ultrasound treatments be avoided?
Suitability is not determined solely by the broad category of ultrasound. Please indicate already sunken areas and sagging skin and inform if there were any changes after previous procedures. It is recommended to specifically discuss the treatment areas to be applied and areas to avoid through a consultation.
What does the term post-injection bumps mean?
Small raised bumps that appear after a skin booster injection in the treatment area are commonly referred to as post-injection bumps in everyday terms. Connect the guidance provided by the clinic for Rejuran with the actual product you received to understand the course of treatment. If you think of multiple ingredients as the same injection, expected recovery and management may differ.
Can I cover it immediately with concealer by pressing it?
Check for any oozing or open injection marks and follow the cleansing and makeup instructions of the responsible clinic. It is best not to press or rub strongly to cover them. If you have an important workday or shoot, specify the exact time when makeup will be needed before the procedure.
Why check inflammation before scar treatment?
Conference guidelines explain an approach that plans scar treatment while controlling new acne. The already indented marks and inflammation occurring today have different targets. Marking which lesions to treat first in photos makes priorities clearer than equipment choice.
If taking acne medication, should it be stopped?
Inform the medical staff of the medication name and duration, but do not stop it arbitrarily. The plan should be adjusted depending on the type of procedure and skin condition. It is also recommended to inform the timing of medications taken in the past so that necessary checks can be carried out.
Are all brown pigments the same?
Colors that are widely distributed like melasma and small lesions with defined borders can have different diagnoses. Societies also explain the diagnosis of melasma and its complex treatments. Rather than selecting a laser solely based on color, it is a priority to have the form, location, and progression of the lesion examined.
If dark spots are strongly removed, will melasma also improve?
The intensity suitable for other lesions cannot be assumed to be appropriate for the surrounding skin and melasma as it is. If multiple types overlap in one treatment area, ask about the treatment sequence and areas to avoid. Rather than aiming to remove all brown pigments at once, it is better to first determine the target for improvement.
What is the difference between temporary flushing and persistent erythema?
Record whether redness occurs briefly after heat or activity or if the color remains normally. The society's rosacea guide explains treatments according to various symptoms and does not consider all red faces as the same condition. Informing the time of onset and duration is helpful for diagnosis.
Should the reaction to alcohol and spicy food also be minimal?
Record whether it recurs in specific situations, but do not assume the same triggers apply to everyone. You can also examine the relationship with exercise, temperature changes, and cosmetic use. Separate lifestyle adjustments that can reduce discomfort and procedural goals during consultation.
Why do we check the points that have changed recently first?
The academy guidance explains the examination of suspicious lesions and the necessary tissue tests. If you choose laser treatment immediately just because you don't like the spot, you may miss information needed for diagnosis. Prepare past photos and consult about when the change started.
If it's a small spot, is it safe to be relieved?
Benignness is not determined by size alone. Check whether the color is varied, whether the borders and shape have changed, and whether any symptoms have appeared. Even if the lesion is small, if there is a new change, inform your cosmetic consultation of this fact first.
Why are shaving and plucking different?
Shaving trims hair outside the skin, while plucking removes hair from the root. This difference is important when preparing for laser hair removal. Check the preparation method suitable for your current hair condition based on the official hair removal guide and medical instructions.
Can I just shave closely on the morning of the day?
Rather than applying the same timing to all skin types, follow the guidance of the clinic where you booked your appointment. If you tend to cut or redden easily after shaving, inform them beforehand. Avoid shaving repeatedly to meet the schedule if you have wounds.
Why do we wait between hair removal sessions?
The next timing is determined considering the hair growth condition and post-treatment recovery. The American dermatology clinic association generally recommends intervals of 4–6 weeks, but it is not a fixed prescription for every treatment area and individual. Receive an explanation for a schedule suitable for the regrowth of your treatment area and skin condition.
Should I make an appointment as soon as I see a little hair?
Do not immediately proceed with additional treatment just because visible hair has increased. Recording photos and shaving frequency from a certain point can help with consultation. The thickness and distribution of remaining hair are also important information for the next plan.
Is scalp relief the same as hair growth?
Changes in sweat, oil, or tension, and changes in the number and thickness of hair are different evaluation items. The hair loss guidelines from the medical society explain diagnosis and treatment according to the cause. You cannot prove that new hair has increased solely based on experiencing that scalp care has become easier.
If it is on the official treatment list, is it considered a standard treatment?
You should distinguish between the treatment list being sold and standard treatments that have sufficient evidence. Ask which type of hair loss a particular study evaluated the effect on. It is important not to generalize the hair growth effects of regular botulinum toxin or scalp oil studies to all types of hair loss.
Is the study saying it can be completely removed in 2 to 4 treatments?
No. These are the results of a small study in which some completers achieved at least 75% lightening.
If the tattoo is small, do I necessarily get paid less?
It is difficult to determine the number of cases based on only small information. Get evaluated along with your color, overcoating history, and goals.
