Hello.
I am Dr. Hyuk-chan Jo, Director of Cleor Clinic Uijeongbu Branch.
There are days when you look in the mirror and feel bothered by thin lips.
However, there are cases where people say that even after filling them, their impression did not change as much as they expected.
This is because even if the volume has increased, if the corners of the mouth remain turned down, the lower part of the face still looks heavy.
Lips are not just a matter of volume in the center.
The force holding both ends and which way it tilts also play a role.
Since one is about filling and the other is about the force of pulling, it is a difficult area to address with just one method.
Today, I will explain step by step what Uijeongbu lip filler covers and why lip corner Botox is often considered together.
What is Uijeongbu lip filler
👉 Uijeongbu lip filler is a method of using hyaluronic acid material to fill shallow areas of the lips to refine volume and lines.
Lips are plump in the center and become thinner toward both sides.
The ratio of the upper and lower lips, the height of the cupid's bow, and the border where the lips meet the skin all create your impression.
The goal of filling is not to make them huge.
It is closer to filling in empty spaces so that the lines become clear.
Strengths of lip filler
👉 The point is that you can divide the placement and amount for each section.
First, you can divide the sections.
If you only make the center plump, both sides look empty, and if you spread it evenly, the three-dimensional effect decreases.
Therefore, we adjust the amount placed on the cupid's bow and both ends differently.
Second, we look at the border separately.
If the outer border of the lips looks blurred, the color looks faint and the contour becomes indistinct.
The approach of placing it thinly along the border is different from the approach of filling the inner volume.
Third, there is room for reversal.
Hyaluronic acid material has a separate dissolving agent, so it can be used if the shape needs to be adjusted.
Why lip corner Botox is considered together
👉 Filling the lips and relieving the force that pulls the corners of the mouth down target different areas.
It is easy to think of hanging a blanket on a clothesline.
No matter how thick the blanket is in the center, if you don't clip both ends, the whole thing looks saggy.
Conversely, if you only pull both ends tight, the center looks empty.
This means that the thickness in the center and the force holding both ends are separate.
There is a separate muscle around the mouth that pulls the corners of the mouth downward.
It is called the depressor anguli oris muscle, and it attaches obliquely from the corner of the mouth toward the jaw.
When the pulling force of this muscle becomes dominant, the corners of the mouth remain in a turned-down shape even when you are still.
This is why people are told they look angry or tired even when they are not making an expression.
If you only increase the volume in the center in this state, two things overlap.
The lips have become plump, but the corners remain turned down, leaving a heavy feeling.
That is why we also look at an approach to relieve the force pulling the corners of the mouth.
This is the reason why the Uijeongbu branch has a package that combines 1cc of lip filler with lip corner Botox. It is not mandatory to do both, and we decide based on how much the corners of your mouth are currently turned down.
What is the principle of action
👉 One side creates shape by filling space, and the other side reduces the pulling force by blocking signals.
Hyaluronic acid has the property of retaining water.
When it enters the shallow areas of the lips, it absorbs surrounding moisture to create volume, and that volume fills the empty sections.
The reason we use a thin needle to inject into multiple spots is that if it is concentrated in one point, only that spot becomes plump, making the line uneven.
Botulinum toxin follows a different path.
If you prevent the neurotransmitter from being released at the point where commands are sent to the muscle, the contraction of that muscle decreases.
When used on the depressor anguli oris muscle, the force pulling the corners of the mouth downward weakens, and conversely, the share of the muscles that lift them becomes relatively larger.
The two approaches are structured so that one is responsible for the shape and the other for the balance of force.
Uijeongbu lip composition and programs
👉 The options are divided into filling, relieving pulling force, and lifting with threads.
Which composition to choose depends on whether you are concerned about volume, lines, or the direction of the corners of the mouth.
For 'Jam-ber-lip', there are cases where fillers are added, so we decide together during the consultation.

❓ Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)
Q. Do I have to get lip corner Botox together?
A. No.
We decide based on the degree to which the corners of the mouth are turned down.
For those who only feel the volume is lacking, we only look at filling, and for those who are also concerned about the direction of the corners, we suggest it together.
Q. Does lip corner Botox change the way I smile?
A. We target the muscle that pulls the corners of the mouth downward.
It is not an approach that touches the muscles that lift the mouth, so your smiling movement remains.
However, if the amount is excessive, it can look unnatural, so we distribute the dosage.
Q. Won't it look obviously swollen?
A. We aim for naturalness, like your original lips, by dividing the sections and injecting only as much as needed.
Instead of increasing it significantly at once, there is also a direction of adjusting it again after the swelling subsides.
Q. How long does the swelling last?
A. Since the lips are an area where swelling is noticeable, they tend to look plump for a few days.
There are individual differences in when it subsides, so if you have an important schedule coming up, we suggest scheduling the procedure well in advance.
Q. Can I reverse it if I don't like it?
A. Hyaluronic acid material has a separate dissolving agent, so you can discuss it during the consultation.
Toxin gradually wears off over time.
Q. Can I get both on the same day?
A. There are cases where we do them on the same day, and cases where we space them out.
If the swelling overlaps, it is difficult to judge the shape, so we sometimes decide on the filler first and separate the sequence.
Uijeongbu lip filler is a direction to fill the empty sections of the lips to make the lines clear, and the force pulling the corners of the mouth downward is an area that cannot be reached by that approach.
The fact that the thickness in the center and the force holding both ends are separate is the reason why we look at the two approaches separately.
At Cleor Clinic Uijeongbu Branch, we first divide whether the area you are concerned about is volume, lines, or the direction of the corners of the mouth, and check it directly during the consultation.
If you are worried about curled-in upper lips, we also offer lip lifting, so we can also arrange the sequence.
If you felt that your impression remained the same after filling, please feel free to talk to us.
