After Juvelook Glam treatment,

the volume that had increased has gone down,

is this a side effect?

"Juvelook Glam,

I got it on my body and loved it, but

it all went down.."

"This is just temporary deflation.

It’s like sowing seeds, so

for the seeds to sprout (collagen production)

please wait 2 more weeks haha"

These days,

because of volume and elasticity concerns,

inquiries about Juvelook Glam are pouring in, but

if you get treated without knowing

the proper precautions, you’re very likely to run into trouble.

Today, I’ll share with clients in the consultation room

exactly what I say about Juvelook Glam’s

'real' effects

without sugarcoating anything.

📌 Key FAQ Before Treatment

Q. Bruising appears after treatment,

is that normal?

Due to the nature of injection areas, bruising is

a natural reaction.

I’ll explain in the main text

how long it usually lasts.

Q. If it feels bumpy,

is it always a nodule?

Not necessarily.

There are criteria to distinguish

normal lumpiness from nodules.

Q. If side effects occur,

can it be dissolved?

Juvelook Glam is PdLLA-based,

so there is no dissolving injection.

The procedure itself is most important.

This is the most important part,

so please read to the end.

1. Juvelook Glam,

how is it different from regular fillers?

Juvelook Glam is a PdLLA-based

biostimulatory filler.

Rather than immediate volume,

it induces collagen production

so the skin naturally

fills out on its own.

The volume right after treatment

is due to moisture (saline).

When the moisture is absorbed after a few days,

it may look deflated again, but

the real effect starts to appear from about

1–3 months later.

2. Normal reactions

vs how to identify real side effects

✅ Don’t worry!!!

1. Swelling (puffiness)

A reaction to the injection,

usually subsides within 3–7 days.

2. Bruising after treatment

Common in areas with many blood vessels,

and lasts 1–2 weeks.

3. Early lumpiness

What you feel in the beginning

usually resolves naturally.

4. Volume deflation

As saline gets absorbed,

this is a normal process.

⚠️ 'Real side effects'

that need checking

1. Nodule

If even after 2–4 weeks

a hard lump is still palpable

2. Itchy granuloma

Inflammation due to a

foreign-body reaction; steroid treatment is needed.

3. Surface irregularity

When injection is too shallow or dosage control is poor,

causing a bumpy surface

1. Abnormal redness

If heat and redness

persist for over 1 week, infection risk should be considered

👨‍⚕️ Director Wi Youngjin’s clinical note

In my experience, nodules occur mainly when injection depth is too shallow,

or when excessive volume is concentrated in one area.

Therefore, precise depth control

is more important than anything else.

Also, for 5 days after treatment,

massage 5 minutes a day is recommended.

If this care is neglected,

particles may clump in one spot.

Massage has a very large impact

on preventing nodules.

3. What to do

if a nodule develops

Juvelook Glam, unlike regular fillers,

has no dissolving medication.

If a nodule occurs,

the realistic management options are as follows.

Steroid injection

Reduces inflammatory response in the nodule area.

5-FU injection

Used together with steroids

to control size.

Laser treatment

Helps improve

surface irregularities of the skin.

Passage of time

Because PLLA is gradually broken down in the body,

in the end, 'time'

can become the greatest treatment.

4. Checklist before and after treatment
