What can nasolabial fold filler do?
Nasolabial folds are the creases from the sides of the nose toward the corners of the mouth. A filler may soften the visible crease for selected patients. It does not guarantee a crease-free appearance at rest or when smiling. Tell the clinician when you notice the fold and ask what they think contributes to it before agreeing to treatment.
Ask for the product and plan in writing
Confirm the proposed product, material and intended use. Tell the treating clinician about previous fillers, allergies, medication and facial procedures. Ask for documentation of the product actually used and an itemized estimate; the gallery alone does not identify the material or amount.
| Compare | Question to ask |
|---|---|
| Goal | Would treatment address the crease itself, and what would remain unchanged? |
| Product | What is proposed, and is it authorized for this use in Korea? |
| Follow-up | When is the next check and who can assess a problem in person? |
| Alternatives | What are the trade-offs of waiting, choosing another option or doing nothing? |
Know the urgent warning signs
The US FDA notes that bruising and swelling can occur after filler. A serious complication can occur if filler enters a blood vessel, reducing blood flow to tissue. The FDA advises immediate medical attention for unusual pain, a white, gray or blue change in skin color near the injection site, vision changes or stroke symptoms during or shortly after treatment. Do not wait for your next appointment if these occur.
Before treatment, ask who will examine urgent symptoms, how to reach the clinic outside hours, and where to get emergency care after you leave Seoul. The FDA source describes general risks and US regulation; it does not verify a specific Korean product or indication.
What does DI case 213 show?
The DI gallery lists case 213 as nasolabial fold filler and shows the same 45-degree view before treatment and three weeks later. The gallery does not provide the product, quantity or long-term result. The images cannot predict duration, establish safety, or tell you whether you are a candidate.
Plan an appointment around follow-up
Before traveling, ask for the first review date and whether the clinical team can provide an aftercare summary in a language you understand. Keep a copy of the product record and local contact information. DI is on the 12th floor of Seosan Building, 441 Gangnam-daero, Seocho-gu, Seoul.

Information that helps us prepare a useful reply
When contacting the clinic, tell us the procedure or concern you would like to discuss, your preferred language, whether you have had related treatment before and the dates you could visit Seoul. International patients may also wish to include their arrival and departure dates so the team can explain when an in-person consultation and follow-up may fit into the trip.
Please do not send passport numbers, payment information or complete medical records through an initial website inquiry. A coordinator can explain which health information or photographs are relevant and how they should be shared. Online guidance is preliminary; suitability, technique and the final treatment plan are determined only after an appropriate medical assessment.
