Responses and recovery differ by individual and side effects are possible.

The areas treated and whether the procedure is suitable are decided after examination. Responses and recovery differ by individual and side effects are possible.
QWhat is Outline Lifting?
It is this clinic's name for a procedure that combines lifting devices with injectable treatments along the contour line of the face. Which devices and treatments are combined is decided individually through examination. Responses and recovery differ by individual and side effects are possible.
QWhat should I know before a procedure?
For every procedure, suitability and method depend on your skin condition, medical history and any medication you take. Reactions such as redness, swelling, pain or pigmentation may occur after treatment, and the degree differs by individual. Please tell the doctor your medical history and current medication, and go ahead only after you have received the aftercare guidance.
