I originally had a lot of cheek fat on my face. I especially had a lot of fat beside my mouth, so I hated that it looked like a bulldog when I smiled, and I also disliked my deep cheek fat because it made my impression look bad... So I got contour injections, and I was satisfied with the effect.
First, my deep cheek fat decreased noticeably, so my impression looked cleaner and my face looked smaller. Since my face looked smaller, my eyes, nose, and mouth also stood out more! My smiling face became prettier, and I gained confidence. People around me also said I seemed to have lost weight and somehow looked prettier, so that felt good.
In my case, I started feeling the effect around 2-3 days after getting it. It could have been a placebo effect lol, but that is how it felt to me.. However, the flushing lasted about a week, and in the month I got the injections, I had my period for a monthㅠ Damn it,,, The effect seemed to last about 3-4 months.
I got it about three times, and even the first time was effective. But the last, third time, the effect was not that great (ㅠ) Maybe it was because I reduced the number of areas by one. The first two times, I got it in three areas: cheeks, jaw, and double chin, and the third time I only got cheeks and jaw.
The last, third time I got it was about half a year ago, and since the last time did not work very well, I still do not really feel like getting it again, so I have not gone since then. But since it has been a long time since I got it and the effect is wearing off, somehow my face feels like it is sagging more than before...? It could just be my imagination or aging, but it feels quite uncomfortable, so I am not planning to get steroid-type contour injections anymore...
The hospital I went to had a doctor, consultant, and reception nurse who were all rather unfriendly and curt... so I do not really recommend it. Since it is a factory-style clinic anyway, I think the effect would be similar even if you go somewhere else.
It has been a while since I went, so I do not remember the exact price, but I think it was around 120,000 won? (uncertain)
