Ellanse Filler — A Filler Where You Choose the Duration
When researching fillers, the question people ask most often is, "How long does it last?" Ellanse (ELLANSE) answers this question in a different way. It is referred to as a 4th-generation filler that induces the body to form its own collagen after injection, and its distinguishing feature is that you can choose from a product lineup with different durations.
This article summarizes the principles and characteristics of Ellanse filler, as well as Dr. Kim Jongseo's related research background. For a comparison with other fillers, please refer to our Filler Types Overview.
What Kind of Filler Is Ellanse?
Ellanse is a filler characterized by inducing collagen formation within the body after injection. While regular hyaluronic acid (HA) fillers work by filling the injected volume, Ellanse is described as lasting relatively longer because it induces collagen production. Dr. Kim Jongseo has authored a research paper confirming, through human tissue biopsy, that collagen forms after Ellanse injection.
What Does It Mean to Be Able to Choose the Duration?
Ellanse is presented as having the advantage of offering a choice among product lines with different durations, such as 1-year, 2-year, 3-year, and 4-year formulations. Which product is suitable depends on the treatment area and purpose, and this is decided through consultation. That said, the actual duration may vary depending on the individual's constitution and the treatment area, and results vary by individual.
Which Areas Can Be Treated with Ellanse?
Content from our previous website introduces cases of forehead filler used to add fullness to the forehead as well as injections into the nose. It is used in areas that need volume replenishment and wrinkle improvement, and changes in skin texture resulting from induced collagen formation are also mentioned in some cases, though effects vary by individual. It is best to confirm the suitable area and product through a consultation.
What Is Dr. Kim Jongseo's Research Background with Ellanse?
Dr. Kim Jongseo has presented Ellanse research findings and authored papers at international conferences held in Paris (France), Monaco, Edinburgh (Scotland), and Singapore, among others. He also has a recorded presentation of his clinical experience with Ellanse at the IMCAS 2014 conference in Paris. Further details of his career can be found on the About the Director page.
