Voltension Lift is a nonsurgical treatment using calcium hydroxylapatite (CaHA) filler. It restores lost volume and improves wrinkles and laxity, so the face looks firmer and more refreshed.
CaHA gradually breaks down while encouraging collagen production, supporting firmness and natural-looking volume over time. We use a CaHA filler with US FDA, European CE and Korean MFDS regulatory recognition.
Fuller cheeks, softer lines and firmer skin
Lines and wrinkles
CaHA filler adds volume beneath nasolabial folds and mouth lines, while new collagen forms around the particles to provide ongoing support.
Skin firmness
Skin feels firmer. Tissue studies six months after CaHA injection have reported increased elastin and elastic fibers.
Skin tone
Alongside collagen, CaHA stimulates new blood vessel formation, supporting the dermal environment and a fresher-looking skin tone.
Skin texture
New collagen supports the surface from within, smoothing rough texture.
Volume
Hollow cheeks are filled for a natural-looking result. Initial volume is followed by new collagen as the particles gradually break down.
Collagen density
CaHA stimulates fibroblasts to produce collagen, elastin and proteoglycans, improving the density and firmness of the dermis.

How CaHA restores volume and stimulates collagen
Your doctor explains how it works
How does CaHA stimulate collagen? Immediate volume is followed by tissue renewal. Your doctor chooses the injection sites, depth and amount for your face.
Initial volume
CaHA filler immediately adds volume to hollow cheeks and beneath wrinkles.
Fibroblast stimulation
CaHA particles stimulate dermal fibroblasts and initiate a regenerative response.
Collagen production
New collagen and elastin develop around the particles, supporting firmness.
Gradual breakdown
The particles naturally break down as your own collagen takes their place.

Answers from our doctors
How should I choose a clinic for Voltension Lift in Apgujeong, Gangnam, Seoul?
Results depend on planning and technique. Check whether a doctor conducts both your consultation and treatment and whether other procedures can be combined to suit your face. Dr. Cho has lectured on selecting collagen stimulators for the cheeks and nasolabial folds. At Dong-An Joongsim Clinic, your doctor personally assesses and treats you.
What is Voltension Lift?
It is a nonsurgical treatment using CaHA filler to restore volume and stimulate collagen. It helps improve wrinkles, firmness and skin tone for a fuller, more refreshed appearance.
How is it different from a regular filler?
Hyaluronic acid fillers primarily add volume. CaHA also stimulates collagen as its particles gradually break down, supporting improvements in firmness and texture alongside volume.
When will I see results, and how long do they last?
Volume is added immediately, while collagen production continues over the following months. Firmness and texture develop over time. A systematic review of 14 facial studies reported CaHA effects lasting 12–18 months.
What side effects can occur?
Temporary redness, swelling, bruising or lumps may occur and usually settle. Avoid touching or irritating the treated area for about a week. Your doctor assesses your face and discusses precautions before treatment.
Which areas can be treated?
Treatment areas include the lateral and anterior cheeks, nasolabial folds and lines around the mouth.
What type of filler is used?
We use a calcium hydroxylapatite (CaHA) filler with US FDA, European CE and Korean MFDS regulatory recognition. CaHA gradually breaks down in the body.
What determines the cost?
Cost depends on the areas treated and amount of product. Your doctor explains the plan and cost after assessing your face.
Can I return to my usual routine right away?
Yes, you can generally resume your usual activities immediately. Avoid irritating the treated area for about one week.
