What it is

• A targeted injectable procedure using neuromodulator (commonly Botox or its equivalents) to temporarily relax the muscle activity around the outer eye corners (orbicularis oculi).
• Purpose: soften, reduce and prevent the dynamic (movement-induced) lines that appear when you smile, squint, or laugh.
• At EUGENES Skin Clinic, this falls under their “Anti-wrinkle injections & facial balancing” service menu. gangnamskindoctor.com+1

Ideal Candidates

• Individuals noticing fine lines or deeper creases at the outer eye corners when smiling or in a relaxed face.

• Anyone who wants preventive care: reducing dynamic movements now can slow wrinkle deepening later.

The Treatment Process – What to Expect

• Consultation:
• Assessment of eye-corner lines, muscle activity (e.g., smiling, squinting), skin condition around the eyes.
• Discussion of your concerns (do you mind the lines only when you laugh vs always visible?), your medical history, expectations, and budget.
• Explanation of filler vs toxin options, though in this case it’s specifically a neuromodulator injection.
• Day of Treatment:
• Pre-treatment photo record may be taken.
• Brief cleansing of the area, possibly topical numbing if you’re sensitive (though eye-corner injections are quick).
• Precise injection into the orbicularis oculi muscle around the outer eye corners.
• Duration: typically 10-20 minutes for the area (plus consultation time).
• Aftercare & Recovery:
• Mild redness, slight swelling or small bruise possible at injection site for 1-2 days.
• Avoid lying face-down, heavy exertion, sauna for 24 hours.
• Results start to appear in ~3-5 days, full effect around 7-14 days.
• Effects last approx. 3-4 months (varies by individual muscle strength, dose, brand).
• Follow-up:
• Often a review at ~2 weeks to check balance/asymmetry.
• Maintenance sessions recommended to prolong effect.

Key Questions & Checklist

• ✅ What brand-name neuromodulator (Botox, Dysport, Nabota, etc.) will be used?
• ✅ What dosage / how many units for my specific eye-corner muscle activity?
• ✅ Who is injecting—dermatologist vs assistant?
• ✅ What is the cost breakdown (area, brand, follow-up)?
• ✅ Are there before/after photos of similar eye-corner cases (same skin tone / age group)?
• ✅ What downtime should I plan for (especially if I travel soon)?
• ✅ What aftercare instructions should I follow (sleep position, facial expressions, skincare)?
• ✅ What happens if I notice asymmetry or one side doesn’t respond—revision policy?

Typical Cost & Considerations (General Guide)

• In Seoul and Gangnam, neuromodulator treatments for areas like crow’s feet often start in the lower hundreds of thousands of KRW, depending on brand and clinic. (Note: Again, check clinic-specific quote) Cheongdam Skin Clinic
• Because the area is small and downtime is minimal, this may be a more accessible anti-aging treatment.
• However: the outcome depends on dose, technique, and muscle strength—opt for quality over the lowest price.
• If you’re an international visitor: ask about planning around flights, aftercare support if you return home, and whether you’ll get documentation (English receipt) for follow-up.

Why This Matters For You

• Eye-corner lines are among the first visible signs of facial ageing or frequent expression—when treated early, options like neuromodulator injections can provide significant aesthetic benefit with minimal disruption.
• For your audience (international patients or people considering aesthetics in Korea), offering clear, structured information about this popular procedure in a reputable Gangnam clinic helps build trust and clarity.
• Choosing a well-known clinic like EUGENES with foreigner-friendly service and proven anti-wrinkle/eye area treatment categories adds credibility.
