Juvelook Volume in Gwonseon-gu: How Much Does It Hurt and How Is Anesthesia Done?

Juvelook Volume is injected into the deep layers of the skin, so you may feel a stinging sensation and an achy pressure when the needle enters, and the degree felt varies by area and person. A topical numbing cream is often used first, and if needed, a local anesthetic may be mixed into the dissolving liquid or added to the injection site. If you're considering Juvelook Volume in Gwonseon-gu, look into both the anesthesia method and the post-treatment achy feeling together.

• During the treatment, you may feel a stinging sensation along with an achy pressure as the liquid enters the deep layers.
• Which methods to combine — numbing cream, a solution mixed with local anesthetic, or cold compresses — is decided based on the area and skin condition.
• After the anesthesia wears off, a tender feeling when pressed may remain for one to several days, and this varies by individual.

Why is Juvelook Volume injected into deep layers?

Juvelook Volume contains the same PDLLA and hyaluronic acid as Juvelook, but with slightly larger particles, injected at a higher concentration into the deep layers of the skin. It's mainly used to address the underlying structure of sunken areas rather than fine skin texture.

A needle or a blunt-tipped tube called a cannula goes down to the deep layers, and as the liquid spreads, you may feel the tissue being pushed. That's why the achy, pressured feeling is often felt as much as the stinging.

The injection itself takes about 15 to 30 minutes, with separate time needed for applying and waiting for the numbing cream. Knowing in advance that the treatment doesn't go on for long can help reduce nervousness.

Does the pain feel different depending on the area?

Areas close to bone, like the temples or front cheeks, tend to feel more of an achy pressure, while sensitive areas like around the mouth may feel more stinging. Even in the same area, the pain felt can differ depending on skin thickness, your condition that day, and your level of tension.

Some people feel more sensitive to pain during their period or on days with insufficient sleep. If you tend to be sensitive to pain, mentioning it in advance during the consultation helps in considering adjustments to the anesthesia method.

During the treatment, breathing out slowly and relaxing your body can help reduce tension. If you feel significant discomfort, please speak up right away instead of enduring it.

In what order is the anesthesia carried out?

When using numbing cream, you wash your face thoroughly, apply it, and then wait for a set amount of time. Numbing cream helps reduce the stinging sensation on the surface of the skin, but it doesn't fully eliminate the achy feeling in the deep layers.

So if needed, a local anesthetic may be mixed into the liquid used to dissolve Juvelook Volume, or added to the injection site. Cold compresses may also be used during the treatment, and which method to use is decided after an examination.

If you've ever had an allergy or unusual reaction to local anesthetics or numbing cream, please be sure to let us know in advance. It also helps to mention if you've experienced heart palpitations or dizziness after dental anesthesia.

What reactions and side effects occur after the anesthesia wears off?

Once the anesthesia wears off, an achy feeling or tenderness when pressed at the injection site may remain for one to several days. Swelling, bruising, and redness may also occur, and these usually subside within a few days to one to two weeks.

Rarely, lumps (nodules), inflammation, infection, or allergic reactions can occur, and because this is injected into deep layers, rare vascular-related complications are also considered. If the skin at the treated area turns white or blue and pain keeps getting worse, contact the clinic where you had the treatment right away. Results and reactions vary by individual.

FAQ

Q. Can I get the treatment with just numbing cream?

A. Depending on the area and your pain sensitivity, the treatment can sometimes proceed with just numbing cream. Since the achy feeling in the deep layers can be hard to reduce with cream alone, whether to use additional anesthesia methods is decided after an examination.

Q. How long do I wait after applying the numbing cream?

A. Numbing cream needs time to absorb into the skin, so you usually wait several tens of minutes. The waiting time varies depending on the area and the type of cream.

Q. How long does the achy feeling last after the treatment?

A. Tenderness when pressed often lasts from one to several days. If the pain keeps getting worse or your skin color changes, contact us right away for an examination.

A. Since Juvelook Volume is injected into deeper layers, you may feel more of an achy sensation than stinging. Even for the same person, the sensation can differ depending on the area and anesthesia method.

Q. Can I take a break during the treatment if I'm in pain?

A. If you feel significant discomfort during the treatment, let us know and we'll consider taking a short break or adding more anesthesia. It's best to speak up right away instead of enduring it.
