I’m not the kind of person who “dares to try new things.” Every time I see others sharing their experiences with medical aesthetics treatments, my inner voice always says, “It does look good, but what if it fails?” So I kept putting it off for a very long time until a super cautious friend of mine told me, “I went to It’s Me Clinic (Daejeon headquarters) and got Filler injections; I’m extremely satisfied – it didn’t fail at all.” Only then did I finally decide to give it a try.
This article is my comprehensive sharing from the perspective of a person who fears failure, covering the entire process from making an appointment to the aftermath of the procedure. If you, like me, are always worried about what to do if something goes wrong, then you must read this article.
Why did I ultimately choose It’s Me Clinic?
Let me first introduce the background of It’s Me Clinic. This is a Dermatology clinic with two branches in Daejeon – the main branch and the West Daejeon branch. Their core concept is “natural looks”; they do not promote overly exaggerated results, but rather focus on achieving results that are barely noticeable yet visibly better.
The reasons why I chose it:
- My friend’s personal experience: My friend has received Filler injections there three times, and she was always very satisfied after each treatment. In fact, she has already recommended it to at least five of her friends.
- Transparent pricing: It’s Me Clinic displays clear price information on BeautsGO, so there is no issue of “getting a quote only upon arrival at the clinic”.
- Post-treatment guarantees: They offer a “7-day free adjustment” service. If any issues arise after the treatment (such as asymmetry, unnatural appearance, or allergic reactions), customers can return for free adjustments or the removal of the substance within 7 days.
- Daejeon offers convenient transportation: It takes approximately 50 minutes to travel from Seoul to Daejeon by KTX, which is more convenient than going to Gangnam. Moreover, there are fewer tourists visiting the clinics in Daejeon, so the prices remain more stable.
Reservation process: How did I manage to make a reservation without having to worry about anything myself?
At first, I wanted to make the call myself, but the thought of having to speak Korean gave me a headache. Later, a friend recommended that I use BeautsGO to book an appointment, and the whole process was extremely simple.
- Open the BeautsGO mini-program and search for “It’s Me Clinic Daejeon”.
- Select “Daejeon Head Office” → “Director” → “Treatment” (I chose Filler injection for the chin).
- Select the date and time slot (there are two options available: 10:00 AM or 2:00 PM).
- Fill in the basic information and confirm your appointment.
- BeautsGO will send you a confirmation message via WeChat, and a dedicated staff member will respond to you within approximately 2 hours.
From the moment I clicked “Confirm Appointment” until I received the confirmation message from the clinic, it took less than 3 hours. Moreover, the customer service at BeautsGO was extremely patient; I asked at least 10 questions (such as what precautions should be taken before the procedure, which skincare products should be discontinued, and whether makeup could be applied on that day), and they answered each one of them.

Arrival at the clinic (10:00 AM)
I took the KTX from Seoul to Daejeon the previous night and arrived at the clinic at 9:45 am on the same day. The decor of the Daejeon branch of It’s Me Clinic features a “warm, fresh, and cozy” style – nothing flashy or extravagant, but rather an atmosphere that makes people feel comfortable and relaxed as soon as they enter. The receptionists at the clinic can speak some basic English, and when I showed them the reservation confirmation from BeautsGO, they immediately recognized who I was.
Preoperative consultation (approximately 20 minutes)
The consultant first took pre-operative photos of me (from the front, side, and at a 45-degree angle), and then asked me, “What aspects would you like to improve today?” I said I wanted to enhance the contours of my chin – from the side, it looked a bit retracted, making my whole face appear somewhat round.
After seeing my photos, the consultant suggested that I have 1 centum core injected into my chin, but she also reminded me: “Given the current condition of your chin, 1 centum core will indeed bring some improvement, but it won’t make it ‘perfect.’ You need to set realistic expectations.” I found this extremely helpful, because many clinics would simply say “yes, definitely possible” just to make a profit, but she was willing to be honest with me.
Then the director came in (Director Kim Soo-yeon, who looks very gentle). She personally checked my chin and said, “Injecting 1 centum core of Filler into the chin using a blunt needle is safe and will give a natural result.” She then asked if I was allergic to anything, whether I was pregnant, or if I was taking any anticoagulants. I answered no to all these questions, and she said, “Well, let’s get started then.”
The injection process (approximately 15 minutes)
The nurse first cleaned my chin and applied the anesthetic (for about 20 minutes). After the anesthetic took effect, the director came in to start the procedure.
To be honest, the pain during the chin augmentation procedure was much less intense than I had expected. Perhaps it was because I had been applied with an anesthetic, or perhaps because the doctor used a blunt needle instead of a sharp one—a thin tube with a rounded tip that caused less pain and reduced the risk of damaging blood vessels. Throughout the entire process, I only felt about 3 to 4 instances of “gentle pressure,” but there was absolutely no pain associated with the needle injections.
After the procedure, the director showed me in the mirror and said, “Look, the contours on the side are now visible.” And indeed, there was a noticeable difference! My chin had become more prominent, and the proportions of my entire side profile looked much more harmonious now.
After the procedure (about 10 minutes later)
After the treatment, the nurse applied a chilled soothing mask to my chin for about 10 minutes. Then she gave me a list of post-treatment precautions.
- Do not get the area in contact with water for 24 hours (avoid washing your face around the chin area).
- Avoid high-temperature environments for one week (such as saunas, steam baths, and hot yoga).
- Do not massage the chin vigorously within one month.
- If any redness or allergic reaction occurs, please contact the clinic immediately.
3 days after the procedure vs 1 month after the procedure: What are the actual results?
3 days after the surgery
The chin is slightly swollen, but not to the extent where it gives the appearance of “exaggerated features” after some cosmetic procedure; it just feels a bit larger than usual. Around the third day, the swelling completely subsided, and that’s when I really noticed the effects: the side profile looked much more defined, and from the front, my face seemed to have a slightly sharper shape.
1 month after the surgery
It has been 1 month since the procedure, and I am extremely satisfied with the results. The Filler in my chin has not shifted at all (I was actually a bit worried about this, but it didn’t happen at all). The shape looks very natural, and my friends all say, “You look better, but they can’t quite tell what’s different” – exactly what I wanted!
Transparent pricing: How much does Filler injection cost at It’s Me Clinic?
The treatment I underwent was “1 centum core Filler injection for the chin,” performed by the clinic director. The cost was ₩320,000 (approximately NT$7,680). On BeautsGO, you can also find reference prices for other treatments.
- Filler lip augmentation (1 centum core): ₩280,000
- Filler for Nasolabial Fold Correction (1 centum core): ₩300,000
- Filler for Apple Zone (2 centum core): ¥952,000
Compared with the market situation in Gangnam, Seoul, I think the prices in Daejeon are indeed more affordable – for the same treatment, the cost is approximately 10-20% lower.
5 essential tips for those who fear failure before visiting It’s Me Clinic
If you, like me, belong to the category of people who are afraid of failure, here are my sincere suggestions:
- It is essential to have thorough communication before the procedure: inform your doctor of your expectations, and also listen to their professional judgment. If your doctor says, “This dosage is not appropriate,” do not insist on your own choice; follow their professional advice.
- Requirements for post-operative support: It’s Me Clinic offers a 7-day free adjustment service, so any issues that may arise after the procedure can be addressed at any time.
- Book through BeautsGO: They offer Chinese-speaking customer service, so you can clarify all the details before the procedure – no need to worry about language barriers.
- On the first day, do not schedule any other activities. There may be some swelling or bruising after the treatment, so it is best to rest near the clinic for a day before returning home.
- Postoperative precautions: Don’t assume that “it’s all over once the procedure is done.” Proper postoperative care can actually affect the durability of the results.
Finally, if you still have any questions after reading this article, you can always make a one-on-one consultation appointment through s-sourire and directly discuss your concerns with the consultants. They will help you organize your thoughts before confirming them with the clinic, thus saving you a lot of time and hassle with back-and-forth communications.
