STEP 01
Volume restoration starting from the foundations deep within the skin.
Even with the same ingredients, the order in which they are added to each layer changes the result. Even if the ingredients are the same,
which layer you add them to first
changes the result.
If you’ve ever had filler and it looked unnatural,
most of the time it was not the ingredients, but the order that was the problem.
Ageing spreads from the inside out
The first thing to change is the bone, and the last thing to become visible is the outer skin.
So if you approach it by looking only at the surface, you cannot reach the root of the problem. What changes first is the bone,
what shows last is the outer skin.
So if you approach by looking only at the surface,
you cannot reach the root of the problem.
From the inside to the outside
A change that spreads in five stages
STEP 02
The support from the inner fat disappears.
STEP 03
The outer fat flows downwards.
STEP 04
The skin and flesh are misaligned.
STEP 05
The outward appearance changes
Changes visible on the surface appear last.
Rebuilding begins in reverse, starting from the deeper layers.
If you have these concerns
Even "hollowing" that looks similar has different causes for each person.
For some, it is because fat has reduced, for others because muscle has changed, and for others because bone is diminishing.
What is causing the sunken appearance of my face?
Sunken cheeks make you look older.
Layer 4 Fat layer (inside)
The nasolabial folds are gradually getting deeper
Layer 4 Outer fat layer
The temples are sunken and you look tired
Layer 7 Bone · fat depression
I had filler injections, but it looks unnatural. A feeling that the whole face has drooped down
Injection order issue
✅ Obliv's treatment guide
Although these changes may look the same, their causes are different. First, check which layer the problem is in.
Why do volume and shape change:
Because the three layers change at the same time
Starting from the fat layer and moving on to the muscles and bones, we explain the changes that happen simultaneously, step by step.
LAYER 4 · Fat layer
Three changes occur simultaneously in the fat layer
The centre of the cheeks hollows first, the jawline softens, and the nasolabial folds deepen. Even though they are the same age, the reason some people start to lose volume in the cheeks first, while others start at the jaw, is that the proportions of these three changes differ.LAYER 6 · Muscles
The facial muscles begin to shift up and down.
A face that was an inverted triangle in your 20s appears square in your 40s. It is not that the face has become wider, but that as the balance of the muscles changes, the relative impression of the cheekbones and jaw changes.LAYER 7 · Bone
I didn't realise, but the bones are shrinking too.
The eyes appear sunken, the middle of the face flattens, and the jawline angle widens. This is because the bone itself beneath the skin and flesh is shrinking. When the bone changes, every layer above it collapses with it.We design from the deepest layer.
If you have ever had fillers and felt they looked unnatural, it is often not the ingredients but the order in which they were injected that is the problem.
As much as where the material is placed, the order in which it is placed determines the result.
Subcutaneous (fat layer)Fascial layerWithin and around the muscleRight above the bone01
Right above the bone
The stage of laying the "foundation" again on top of the collapsed bones. If this part is empty, it feels awkward no matter how much you fill the layers above.02
Subcutaneous
Reconstruct the support line. Secure a pathway that lifts the tissue upwards.03
Subcutaneous (fat layer)
We adjust the volume. As support from the deeper layer is restored, the amount needed from this layer also decreases.04 · Last
Within and around the muscle
Fine-tune the surface balance. When Botox relaxes excessive tension, the overall lines look more natural.We first place structural support in the deep layer just above the bone, then adjust the volume in the fat layer.
If support in the deep layer is restored first, you can also expect the surface fat that had sagged downward to return to its original position.
Obliv's Volume · Shape prioritises a dual-plane approach in the order of deep layer (just above the bone) → superficial layer (fat layer).

What concerns is it used for?
Even though they are both "volume treatments", their purposes are different. The first sentence on each card should be "what concern it is used for", and the ingredient and structure explanation should be placed below that.
NEUROMODULATOR · Muscle
Botox
LAYER 6 · Within and around the muscle
It is not a procedure to remove wrinkles. It is a structural procedure that relaxes overly tense muscles and restores facial balance.
How
Selectively relax overactive muscles with botulinum toxin. It is used for contour correction (square jaw, V-line), wrinkle reduction, and improving muscle balance.
DERMAL FILLER · Dual plane
filler
LAYER 4 · 7 · Dual-plane injection
This is a procedure that adds volume. The depth at which it is inserted determines the result.
How
Apply HA (hyaluronic acid) or CaHA (calcium hydroxyapatite) filler differently depending on the injection depth. In the deep layer just above the bone, first rebuild structural support, and in the fat layer, correct superficial volume. CaHA induces autologous collagen production while providing immediate volume.
THREAD LIFTING · Physical traction
Mint room
LAYER 5 · Fascial layer traction
This is a method of directly lifting sagging tissue with a thread. It is effective for sagging that is difficult to reach with equipment.
How
PDO (polydioxanone) barbed threads physically lift the tissue from the deeper layers. A lifting effect is visible immediately after the procedure, and as the threads dissolve, they help stimulate collagen production.
THREAD LIFTING · Spring type
Jaembeosil
LAYER 5 · Fascial Layer · Volume Restoration
Unlike Mint threads, its spring structure allows it to restore volume as well as lift.
How
PDO scaffold-type thread. Its dense structure increases the tissue contact area to promote collagen regeneration, and as it degrades, it helps remodel the ligament and surrounding tissue network.
FAQ
Do you have any questions?
+ Can I resume my daily life immediately after the procedure?
Botox and filler treatments allow you to go about your daily life on the same day. For 4–6 hours after the procedure, take care not to touch or press the treated area, and please avoid saunas, alcohol and vigorous exercise on the day of the treatment.
+ How soon after Botox treatment does it start to take effect?
The effects begin to appear 3 to 7 days after the procedure, with the maximum effect becoming apparent around 2 weeks later. The average duration of the results is 4 to 6 months.
+ Can I have a thread lift and fillers at the same time?
Yes, they can be performed together. Thread lifting physically lifts sagging tissue, while fillers are used to restore lost volume, so the approaches are different. At Obliv, we diagnose the layers first and then design the optimal combination.
+ How long do the effects of filler treatment last?
HA (hyaluronic acid) fillers typically last 6–18 months, while CaHA (calcium hydroxyapatite) fillers typically last 12–18 months. This can vary depending on the injection depth and area, as well as an individual’s metabolic rate.
+ How are Botox and fillers different?
Botox relaxes overactive muscles with botulinum toxin to improve wrinkles and refine facial contours. Fillers work by directly adding volume to sunken areas. Obliv follows a dual-plane approach, filling from the deep layer just above the bone and then the fat layer.
