Does it hurt?<\/strong>\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>A1. Since it involves multiple shallow injections, there is a stinging sensation. Most clinics apply a strong numbing cream beforehand, making it very tolerable.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Q2. How can I make the results last longer?<\/strong>\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>A2. Avoid saunas, heavy drinking, and intense exercise for one week. This helps the product settle effectively into the skin layers.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Q3. What if I already have Botox resistance?<\/strong>\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>A3. If you suspect resistance, you should stop treatments and consult a specialist. Prevention is key\u2014that\u2019s why starting with a high-quality product like Xeomin is recommended.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator has-alpha-channel-opacity\" \/>\n\n\n\n<p>Want to explore trusted Korean clinics?<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Check out&nbsp;<strong><a>YeoTi<\/a><\/strong>&nbsp;\u2014 the all-in-one Korean aesthetic app \ud83c\uddf0\ud83c\uddf7\ud83d\udcf1<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Over&nbsp;<strong>1,640,000 verified treatment reviews<\/strong><\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Transparent local pricing for foreigners<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Consultation and booking available in Japanese and English<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.yeoshin.co.kr\/en?utm_source=Owned&amp;utm_medium=241025_owned_WEB_en_EN&amp;utm_campaign=241025_none_SEO&amp;utm_content=article\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"885\" src=\"https:\/\/blog.yeoshin.co.kr\/wp-content\/blogs.dir\/3\/files\/2025\/02\/IMG_9489-1024x885.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-1322\" srcset=\"https:\/\/blog.yeoshin.co.kr\/en\/files\/2025\/02\/IMG_9489-1024x885.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/blog.yeoshin.co.kr\/en\/files\/2025\/02\/IMG_9489-300x259.jpg 300w, https:\/\/blog.yeoshin.co.kr\/en\/files\/2025\/02\/IMG_9489-768x663.jpg 768w, https:\/\/blog.yeoshin.co.kr\/en\/files\/2025\/02\/IMG_9489-486x420.jpg 486w, https:\/\/blog.yeoshin.co.kr\/en\/files\/2025\/02\/IMG_9489-696x601.jpg 696w, https:\/\/blog.yeoshin.co.kr\/en\/files\/2025\/02\/IMG_9489-1068x923.jpg 1068w, https:\/\/blog.yeoshin.co.kr\/en\/files\/2025\/02\/IMG_9489-534x462.jpg 534w, https:\/\/blog.yeoshin.co.kr\/en\/files\/2025\/02\/IMG_9489.jpg 1425w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/a><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>REAL REVIEWS FROM CUSTOMERS<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Curious about treatment reviews or pricing?&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/www.yeoshin.co.kr\/en?utm_source=Owned&amp;utm_medium=241025_owned_WEB_en_EN&amp;utm_campaign=241025_none_SEO&amp;utm_content=article\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Click here to find out more.<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>RECOMMENDED ARTICLES<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Check out a variety of informative articles from YeoTi right&nbsp;<em><a href=\"https:\/\/blog.yeoshin.co.kr\/en\/\">here<\/a><\/em><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Are you dreaming of that flawless &#8220;Glass Skin&#8221; look seen in K-Dramas?
