Botulinum toxin treatments relax muscles that cause lines; fillers add volume or shape. Both are widely available in Seoul and often quoted by unit, syringe or area. The appointments are short, but product choice, dosing and the clinician's judgement matter, and results are judged days to weeks later.
The clinician assesses muscle movement and line patterns and proposes areas and dosing. Ask which product is used, why, how long the effect typically lasts and when it can be judged.
Fillers
The clinician assesses volume, structure and skin, proposes areas and amounts, and explains the product type. Ask about reversibility, how long it lasts and what is done if the result is uneven.
Combinations
Toxin and fillers are often proposed together with skin treatments. Order and timing are the clinician's decision; ask how they affect downtime and your dates.

Downtime and follow-up
Marks fade fast; results take days.
Ask about bruising and swelling and how long they typically last for the areas proposed.
Ask when the result can be judged; toxin is commonly described as taking days to develop, fillers as settling over weeks.
Ask whether a touch-up is included, when it would happen and how it is handled if you have left Korea.
Ask what to avoid afterwards, including massage, heat, alcohol and lying flat.
Toxin is usually quoted per unit or per area; fillers per syringe or per area. Ask for the product name, quantity and area on each line, whether a touch-up is included and how additional quantity is priced if needed on the day.
