Forehead Fillers in Seoul: Procedure, Results & Cost
Hyaluronic acid filler to soften a flat, bony or hollow forehead into a smoother, rounder contour — at our clinic by Sinnonhyeon Station.
Forehead filler uses hyaluronic acid (or sometimes a collagen-stimulating product) to fill a flat, hollow or uneven forehead and create a smoother, gently rounded upper-face contour. The procedure takes about 30–40 minutes, with mild swelling or tenderness for 1–2 days. Most patients need 2–5 cc; in Seoul 1 cc is typically ₩250,000–₩500,000, and touch-ups are usually every 9–18 months.
What are forehead fillers?
With age, genetics or weight loss, the forehead can look flat, bony or hollow. Forehead fillers — usually hyaluronic acid, sometimes collagen-stimulating products — are injected to:
- Smooth bony or uneven areas
- Fill concave hollows
- Create a softly curved forehead profile
- Improve upper-face balance and symmetry
It is a less invasive alternative to fat grafting or implants. For dynamic lines caused by muscle movement, Botox is usually more appropriate.
Who is it suitable for?
Forehead filler suits people with a flat or concave forehead or hollows from volume loss. It is not suitable for those with an already prominent forehead (frontal bossing). The doctor evaluates your facial ratio and bone structure before deciding the volume and placement.
Procedure and recovery
- One-to-one consultation and facial assessment
- Topical numbing cream
- Injection with a microcannula or fine needle in even layers
- Gentle moulding and symmetry check
- Cooling care to reduce swelling
Procedure time: 30–40 minutes. Downtime: mild swelling or tenderness for 1–2 days; slight unevenness can appear early and usually settles.

Safety: things to know before you book
- The forehead has important blood vessels, so filler should only be injected by an experienced doctor using careful technique.
- Overfilling can cause unnatural bulges — gradual, precise layering matters.
- Seek help immediately if you notice blanching, severe pain or vision changes after any facial filler.
- HA filler can be dissolved with hyaluronidase if needed.
