Skin Plus-Hyal is a long-lasting hyaluronic acid filler designed to give natural volume that can still be dissolved if needed. At Yaan Clinic in Gangnam, Seoul, it is used for people who want results that last longer than typical HA fillers—Yaan Clinic states about two to three years—without committing to a permanent product.
It sits between standard fillers and skin boosters in how people think about it: the focus is subtle, durable volume rather than dramatic shape change. Yaan Clinic is a Skin Plus-Hyal Key Doctor clinic.
What is Skin Plus-Hyal?
Skin Plus-Hyal is a patented hyaluronic acid filler that links ultra-fine HA beads into a "pearl-like" structure, instead of the mesh-like (reticular) structure of many fillers. This design is intended to make it last longer and spread less.
According to Yaan Clinic, Skin Plus-Hyal is EU safety-certified, was clinically studied in more than 4,000 cases at Seoul National University Hospital in 2009, and has five years of clinical use in Japan. It is one of the filler brands Yaan Clinic lists on its dermal filler page, alongside Bellast, Restylane and Juvederm.
How long does Skin Plus-Hyal last?
Yaan Clinic states that Skin Plus-Hyal lasts about two to three years. That is longer than many standard hyaluronic acid fillers, while the product remains dissolvable.
Longevity depends on the area treated, how much movement the area has, your metabolism and lifestyle. Yaan Clinic notes that a big change in body weight may affect results.
Skin Plus-Hyal vs Elansé and other long-lasting fillers
The key difference is reversibility. Skin Plus-Hyal can be dissolved, while Elansé, a PCL-based filler lasting about two years, cannot be dissolved and may require surgical removal if there is a problem, according to Yaan Clinic.
| Skin Plus-Hyal | Elansé | Standard HA filler | Collagen stimulators | |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Main ingredient | Hyaluronic acid (bead structure) | PCL (polycaprolactone) | Hyaluronic acid | PLLA or PDLLA |
| Duration (as stated) | 2–3 years | About 2 years | Varies by product | Sculptra about 2 years; Juvelook Volume degrades over 1–2 years |
| Can be dissolved | Yes | No | Yes | No |
| Results appear | Immediately | Immediately, then gradual | Immediately | Gradually |
If you prefer gradual, collagen-based volume, see Sculptra or Juvelook Volume.
Who is a good candidate for Skin Plus-Hyal?
Skin Plus-Hyal suits adults who want natural, long-lasting volume but like the safety net of a dissolvable product. Yaan Clinic uses it on the face and other areas.
- Facial volume loss and contour (see volume loss and hollow cheeks)
- Neck lines (neck line filler)
- Thin, veiny hands (hand rejuvenation filler)
- Under-eye hollows (under-eye filler)
- Mild asymmetry—Yaan Clinic aims for harmony rather than perfect symmetry
Filler is generally avoided during pregnancy, over active infection, and in people with allergies to hyaluronic acid products or anesthetics. Your doctor will confirm suitability at consultation.
What happens during Skin Plus-Hyal treatment at Yaan Clinic?
Treatment follows four steps: consultation, design with a vessel projection device, anesthesia and injection. Doctors perform the injection directly.
- Consultation – Your doctor discusses goals, past filler and any events you are planning around.
- Design with vessel projection – An infrared vascular detector shows blood vessels so injection points can be planned to avoid them.
- Anesthesia – The area is numbed for comfort.
- Injection – Skin Plus-Hyal is placed with rounded-tip cannulas, which are designed to reduce the risk of vessel injury, bruising and swelling.
Is Skin Plus-Hyal painful?
Most people feel pressure and mild discomfort rather than sharp pain. The area is numbed before injection, and rounded-tip cannulas usually need fewer entry points than sharp needles, which many patients find more comfortable.
Sensitivity varies by area; the lips and under-eyes tend to feel more than the cheeks. Tell your doctor if you are worried about pain so they can adjust numbing and pacing.
Which areas can Skin Plus-Hyal treat?
Yaan Clinic uses Skin Plus-Hyal on the face and on other areas where natural, long-lasting volume helps. The right areas and amounts depend on your anatomy and are decided at consultation.
| Area | Typical goal |
|---|---|
| Forehead, cheeks, chin | Restore soft contours and balance |
| Under-eye | Soften hollows that cast shadows |
| Neck | Smooth horizontal neck lines |
| Hands | Cushion thin skin and soften visible veins and tendons |
| Breast | Volume enhancement (assessed individually) |
What is recovery like after Skin Plus-Hyal?
Temporary swelling, firmness, tightness or a foreign-body sensation can occur, and Yaan Clinic notes these settle with time. Recovery varies by person, so allow some time before important events.
Yaan Clinic advises planning timing before events individually. General filler aftercare includes avoiding pressure on the area, saunas, heavy exercise and alcohol for a few days. Your doctor will confirm the details.
Good to know: No filler is risk-free. Rare complications such as vascular occlusion are the reason Yaan Clinic uses vessel mapping and blunt cannulas. Read more on the genuine products and safety page.

Frequently asked questions

Yaan Clinic states that Skin Plus-Hyal lasts about two to three years, longer than many standard hyaluronic acid fillers. Actual longevity varies with the area treated, your metabolism and lifestyle. Large changes in body weight can also affect results.
Can Skin Plus-Hyal be dissolved?
Yes. Skin Plus-Hyal is a hyaluronic acid product, so it can be dissolved if needed, which Yaan Clinic highlights as an advantage over non-dissolvable long-lasting fillers such as Elansé. Dissolving is typically done with hyaluronidase.
Is Skin Plus-Hyal a skin booster or a filler?
It is primarily a long-lasting hyaluronic acid filler used to add natural volume. It is often discussed alongside skin boosters because people compare long-lasting injectables, but its main role is volume rather than improving skin texture.
Will Skin Plus-Hyal feel firm after injection?
Some firmness, tightness or a foreign-body sensation can occur at first. Yaan Clinic notes this is temporary and settles as the product integrates. Recovery time varies from person to person.
Can I get Skin Plus-Hyal if I had filler before?
Yes, in many cases. If previous filler was dissolved, Yaan Clinic recommends waiting until the tissue has settled before injecting Skin Plus-Hyal. Your doctor will examine the area and advise on timing.
How much does Skin Plus-Hyal cost in Seoul?
At Yaan Clinic, Skin Plus-Hyal costs ₩690,000 per 1cc. The total depends on the amount and areas treated. International patients pay the same price as Korean patients, and the final price is confirmed at consultation.
