What is Belotero Revive?
Belotero Revive is a skin booster designed around hydration. It pairs hyaluronic acid, a molecule the skin naturally uses to hold water, with glycerin, which helps attract moisture. Delivered into the skin in fine injections, it aims to restore a well-hydrated feel and a luminous, translucent tone that is hard to achieve with creams alone. For many visitors to Apgujeong, Gangnam, it is the booster most closely linked with the dewy "glass skin" look.
Is Belotero Revive right for your skin?
It is typically considered when the main concern is dryness or dullness rather than scarring or sagging. If your skin also needs repair or firming, Dr. Song may suggest a different booster or a combination instead. Common reasons visitors ask about Belotero Revive include the following.
- Skin that feels tight, dry or rough despite moisturiser
- A dull, tired complexion
- Fine dehydration lines
- Skin affected by travel, air conditioning or dry climates
How treatment is planned with Dr. Song
Your visit starts with Needs Mapping: a skin analysis measures the condition of your skin, and Dr. Song examines texture, tone and structure face to face. In your Curated Plan she explains whether Belotero Revive alone is suitable or whether it would work better alongside Lephton toning or another booster. With Tailored Treatment, she performs the injections herself, adjusting placement to the areas that are genuinely dehydrated.
After your session
Tiny bumps and slight redness are common straight after treatment and usually settle quickly, often within a day or two, though everyone is different. Bruising can occasionally occur. Hydration benefits are often noticed as the skin settles, and Dr. Song can advise whether repeat sessions would help maintain the effect.
- Avoid makeup for the period your doctor recommends
- Stay away from saunas and alcohol for a short time
- Drink water and use a gentle moisturiser
- Use sunscreen daily, especially while sightseeing

Frequently asked questions
What makes Belotero Revive different from Rejuran?
Belotero Revive focuses on hydration and radiance using hyaluronic acid and glycerin, while Rejuran Healer uses salmon-derived polynucleotide to support repair and the skin barrier. Dr. Song will recommend one or the other, or neither, based on your skin analysis in Apgujeong.
Will Belotero Revive change the shape of my face?
No, it is not designed to add shape or volume. It is placed superficially to improve hydration and skin quality. If you are interested in contouring, fillers are a separate treatment discussed at consultation.
How soon can I wear makeup?
Most people wait a short period after treatment to reduce the risk of irritation at the injection points. Dr. Song or the team will give you specific advice on the day, based on how your skin reacts.
Is it a good choice before a special event?
It is often chosen before events because downtime is usually short. Still, leave some buffer in case of bumps or bruising, and plan the timing with the clinic via WhatsApp in advance.
How long does the hydration effect last?
Duration varies with your skin, lifestyle and climate, so no fixed timeframe can be promised. Dr. Song can suggest a maintenance approach at your consultation at Live Young Clinic in Gangnam.
