What makes Belotero different?
Merz describes CPM manufacturing technology and differentiates gel cohesivity, elasticity and mouldability. The Korean page separates temporary facial-wrinkle improvement for Soft/Balance/Intense from temporary facial-volume restoration for Volume.

Merz Korea product information. The clinic should confirm the exact local product or configuration.
What the gel terms mean
Cohesivity describes how a gel holds together, elasticity concerns its response to deformation, and mouldability concerns shaping. These describe different material behaviours. They are more useful as questions for your clinician than as a simple ranking of “stronger” and “weaker” products.
A concentration is not a treatment plan
The four listed concentrations describe formulations. They do not tell you how much product you need or where it should be placed. Ask the clinician to explain the choice of formulation and total planned amount separately.
Keep filler and skinbooster names distinct
A quotation saying only “Belotero” leaves room for ambiguity. Ask whether it means Soft, Balance, Intense, Volume or the separate Revive product. Put the full name next to the treatment area and price so that follow-up records remain useful.
From a product name to a clear plan.
- Describe your goal
Bring your main concern, previous treatment details and travel dates. Ask the clinician to explain the proposed product in relation to that goal.
- Get an itemised quotation
Record the complete product or device name, areas, quantity or coverage, preparation, clinician and follow-up. Separate optional additions from the main treatment.
- Leave with a follow-up plan
Keep the treatment record and written aftercare instructions. Confirm when to review the outcome and whom to contact after leaving Korea.
What to discuss before booking.
Swelling, bruising and lumps may occur. Accidental injection into a blood vessel can cause tissue injury, blindness or stroke. Discuss emergency arrangements.

Does the highest HA concentration mean the best filler?
Concentration is one product characteristic, not a quality score. The formulation and treatment goal should be matched by the clinician; more concentrated does not automatically mean more suitable.
What should a quotation include?
Ask for the complete product or model name, planned areas, product quantity or device coverage, practitioner, preparation, follow-up, and any separately charged items. A short package name makes comparisons difficult.
Can I schedule this just before leaving Korea?
Tell the clinic your travel dates before booking. Ask about likely visible recovery, when a result can be assessed, and who can provide follow-up if you leave Korea. Obtain an aftercare contact and written instructions in a language you understand.
