Injectables fall into 3 broad families, muscle-relaxing botox, volumising fillers, and regenerative skin boosters, each solving a different concern.
Injectable treatments cover three broad families: botox that relaxes overactive muscles or sweat glands, fillers that restore volume and contour, and regenerative skin boosters that improve texture and hydration. Choosing the right one depends on your concern, so a consultation matches the injectable to your face, goals, and timeline.

Injectable treatments are minimally invasive procedures that deliver an active agent into the skin or muscle through a fine needle or cannula, with little to no downtime. Rather than one product, they form three broad families that each work in a different way, which is why they are often combined for a balanced, natural result.
The first family is botox, a neuromodulator that relaxes overactive muscles to soften dynamic lines or calms sweat glands for hyperhidrosis. The second is fillers, usually hyaluronic acid, which add volume, smooth folds, and refine contour instantly. The third is regenerative skin boosters such as polynucleotide or collagen-stimulating injectables, which improve skin quality, hydration, and firmness over a series of sessions.
At Reberry Clinic, the clinic’s doctors assess which family, or combination, suits your concern, with English-speaking support for international patients across three Seoul-area locations (Gangnam, Myeongdong, Incheon Airport). Treatment is planned to your anatomy rather than a fixed menu.
Botox uses botulinum toxin type A to block acetylcholine at nerve terminals, so the targeted muscle or sweat gland temporarily stops receiving its activation signal; effects appear within days and last months. Fillers, most commonly hyaluronic acid, are gels that physically restore volume and bind water in the dermis, giving an immediate lift that lasts roughly 6 to 18 months depending on the product and area. Regenerative skin boosters such as polynucleotide (salmon-derived PN) and collagen stimulators like PDLLA do not add bulk; instead they prompt fibroblasts to build new collagen and improve hydration gradually over multiple sessions. Because the mechanisms differ, a treatment plan often layers them, for example fillers for contour plus boosters for skin quality.

The doctor maps your concern to 1 of the 3 families, or a combination, based on whether it is muscle, volume, or skin quality.
The right product and dose are selected; for example fillers for contour or polynucleotide boosters across 2 to 4 sessions.
Topical anaesthetic or a cannula technique is used; most sessions take about 15 to 45 minutes depending on the area.
The agent is placed at the correct depth across the area, from intramuscular botox to intradermal booster microdroplets, in 1 even pass.
Botox shows within 2 to 4 days, filler is immediate, and booster effects build over weeks as collagen and hydration improve.
See representative outcomes from Reberry Clinic. Results build gradually and vary by individual; your plan is assessed at consultation.
The clinic’s doctors map your concern to the right injectable family, or combination, explained in English.
After numbing, the session usually takes 15 to 45 minutes depending on the agent and number of areas.
Most patients return to normal activities the same day, with only brief aftercare instructions.
Filler is immediate, botox shows within days, and boosters build over weeks across a series.
Longevity ranges from months to over a year by product; avoid heat and pressure briefly after treatment.
They are minimally invasive procedures that deliver an active agent through a fine needle, grouped into three families: muscle-relaxing botox, volumising fillers, and regenerative skin boosters. Each addresses a different concern, and they are often combined. You can see a specific example on our botox injection page.
It depends on your concern: botox for dynamic lines or sweating, fillers for lost volume and contour, and boosters for skin texture and hydration. Often a combination works best. A consultation matches the right family to your face. Volumising options are explained on our injectable fillers page.
Most healthy adults wanting line softening, volume, or better skin quality are candidates, provided they are not pregnant and have no relevant medical contraindications. Your doctor reviews your history and goals first. For regenerative options specifically, you can read about polynucleotide on our Rejuran Healer page.
Discomfort is generally mild and brief. Numbing cream, fine needles, and cannula techniques keep most sessions comfortable. Botox feels like quick stings, filler is well tolerated with numbing, and skin boosters involve several tiny injections. Any soreness is short-lived and settles soon after your appointment ends.
Downtime is minimal for most injectables, and many patients resume activities the same day. Fillers and boosters may cause brief redness, swelling, or small bruises for a day or two. There are no dressings, so international visitors can usually continue their itinerary with only minor precautions.
Timing depends on the family: filler volume is visible immediately, botox softens lines within a few days, and skin boosters improve texture gradually over weeks and a series of sessions. Your doctor explains the expected timeline so you can plan around travel and any upcoming events.
Longevity varies widely: botox typically lasts months, hyaluronic acid fillers around 6 to 18 months by product and area, and skin boosters several months when maintained with a series. Because results are not permanent, repeat treatments keep the effect. Your plan will note when each is due.
Botox and fillers are usually a single appointment per area, repeated as they wear off, while regenerative boosters often need 2 to 4 sessions spaced a few weeks apart for full benefit. Your doctor sets the schedule at consultation, and many treatments can be staged across a short trip.
Yes, combining families is common and often gives the most natural result, for example filler for contour plus a booster for skin quality, sequenced safely by your doctor. This is a core advantage of injectables. Browse the full range through our injection treatment page to plan a combined visit.
Injectables have strong safety records when performed by trained doctors using approved products and correct technique. Most side effects are minor and temporary. Risk rises with inexperienced injectors, so doctor assessment and proper placement matter. Your medical history is reviewed first to confirm each chosen agent is suitable for you.
Common, temporary effects include injection-site redness, swelling, and small bruises that fade within days. Botox can rarely cause brief asymmetry if it spreads, and fillers carry a small risk of lumps or, rarely, vascular issues. Choosing an experienced doctor and following aftercare minimise these risks.
Aftercare is straightforward: avoid heat, saunas, and strenuous exercise for about 24 hours, do not massage botox areas, and keep filler sites clean. Boosters may leave tiny bumps that settle within hours. Your clinic provides written guidance so you can follow it confidently after returning home.
No, most modern fillers use hyaluronic acid, which is gradually broken down by the body over roughly 6 to 18 months, and can even be dissolved if needed. This temporary, adjustable nature is considered a safety advantage. To understand volumising options in detail, see our injectable fillers page.
Many injectable treatments need only a day, since most sessions take under an hour with minimal downtime. If you are staging boosters or combining treatments, allow a little longer. Our English-speaking team coordinates timing across our locations so your plan fits a short trip comfortably.
International patients can have remote check-ins in English to review results and plan the next session or repeat. For regenerative options that need a series, the team schedules around your travel. You can also explore complementary care on our skin care page for ongoing maintenance at home.
