Hugel Inc., a leading global medical aesthetics company, said on Wednesday it had recently launched H.E.L.F. Global Expert Workshop on hyaluronic acid dermal fillers for about 10 French medical aesthetics professionals.

​

Hugel created the workshop series this year to invite foreign medical practitioners to Korea and enhance their understanding and techniques of aesthetic procedures. The workshop is a part of H.E.L.F., or Hugel Expert Leader’s Forum, in which Korean and overseas medical aesthetic industry leaders share the latest trends, knowledge and advanced skills.

​

The latest workshop in Seoul included a lecture and live demonstration on filler treatment for adding natural volume to the full face.

​

Dr. Choi Hanmoi, plastic surgeon and medical director of BY ME Plastic Surgery, introduced the mechanism of action and applications of hyaluronic acid dermal fillers and performed a demonstration for facial balancing by using Hugel’s filler THE CHAEUM, globally known as Revolax.

​

Many medical practitioners in Europe take intervals of a few weeks when injecting fillers in multiple facial areas, and this may require patients to visit the clinic for months. Dr. Choi demonstrated professional skills to complete such procedure in a day with the right amount of fillers, while carefully considering the patient’s physical condition and facial aesthetics. The French participants were highly satisfied with the workshop, Hugel said.

​

“The demonstration was very interesting and helpful to understand why many overseas patients come to Korea for dermal filler treatments,” said Dr. Andrea Vincentelli, a workshop attendee.

​

“We are pleased to have successfully run the workshop with Dr. Choi, who has deep knowledge and aesthetic expertise as a plastic surgeon. Hugel will continue to organize various academic events to enhance the brand credibility of our fillers, which have a presence in around 30 countries,” a Hugel official said.
