Aegyo-sal Filler in Myeongdong, Seoul

Quick answer

Aegyo-sal filler places a very small amount of soft hyaluronic acid, usually 0.2–0.4 ml for both eyes, just below the lower lash line to create a subtle roll that looks youthful and cheerful, especially when smiling. It is different from tear trough filler, which fills a hollow lower down. Treatment takes about 15 minutes, swelling settles in a few days and results last about 6–12 months.

What is aegyo-sal?

‘Aegyo’ means charm in Korean. The aegyo-sal is formed by a band of the eye muscle that bulges slightly when you smile. Some people have a prominent one naturally; filler can create a soft version that frames the eye. The shape should be thin and even; too much looks puffy.

Who is it for?

People who want a brighter, younger-looking eye-smile.
Good lower-lid tone without large bags.
Not for puffy lower lids or a deep tear trough, which need under-eye filler instead.

Aegyo-sal shows most when you smile, so we plan it with you smiling.

How Obliv plans aegyo-sal filler

Your doctor asks you to smile, marks the natural roll, and plans a thin, even band that ends before the outer corner. A very soft filler is placed in tiny amounts with a fine needle or cannula.

Typical volume	Usually 0.2–0.4 ml for both eyes
Technique	Thin, superficial band just below the lashes
Pairs well with	Under-eye filler, crow’s feet Botox

Results and recovery

The roll is visible straight away; mild swelling settles in a few days, when the final shape shows.

Risks and side effects

Swelling and bruising.
A puffy or uneven roll if overfilled; easily dissolved.
Rarely, blocked blood flow; seek help at once for pain or colour change.

Aftercare

Avoid rubbing your eyes and eye make-up for 24 hours.
Sleep with your head slightly raised for a night or two.

Frequently asked questions

What is the difference between aegyo-sal and tear trough filler?

Aegyo-sal creates a soft roll just under the lashes; tear trough filler fills the hollow groove lower down.

How long does aegyo-sal filler last?

About 6–12 months.

Will it make my eyes look puffy?

Not when the band is thin and even. Overfilling causes puffiness, so we use very small amounts.
