AGNES
Fine insulated needles deliver radiofrequency energy precisely to the targeted fat layer only, selectively removing unnecessary fat without damaging the surrounding tissue.
Signature Contouring
The Other Contouring
Let go of fixating on parts and find the harmony of the whole.
A one-dimensional treatment that simply fills hollow areas and reduces protruding ones cannot create ideal proportions. At The Other Dermatology, we redesign the light and shadow of the face using 3D AI data and the perspective of a dermatologist.
WHY THE OTHER
Why Your Face Should
Be Analyzed in Three Dimensions
The face is not flat. Fine curves and shadows appear depending on the angle of the light and the movement of the expression muscles, and these shape aging and overall impression. The Other facial contouring does not correct just one part of the face. It corrects the overall line running from the forehead to the jawline, to achieve the most natural and refined youthful look.
The Science of Light & Shadow
The impression of a face is determined not by the absolute amount of volume but by the contrast between the surfaces the light reaches and the surfaces where shadows form. The Other designs the balance of this shading.
Static + Dynamic Analysis
A face at rest is different from a face when smiling or speaking. The Other designs in three dimensions, taking into account facial expressions as well as the resting face.
Harmony of the Whole Line
Raising only the nose or reducing only the chin cannot produce ideal proportions. We design a contour line that connects from the forehead to the jawline as one flow.
THE CORE PROCESS
The Other's 3-Step Contour Design
We start from data, complete the design with the aesthetic judgment of a specialist, and carry it out with the most suitable solution.
STEP 01 — Objective Measures
3D AI Skin and Contour Analysis
We measure asymmetry that is easy to miss with the naked eye, areas of reduced or excess volume, and the degree of skin sagging with 3D AI equipment. We begin by confirming, in objective figures from data-based diagnosis rather than subjective judgment, where to reduce and where to fill.
STEP 02 — The Specialist's Eye
Custom Multi-Angle Shadow Design
Based on the data, a dermatologist personally evaluates the light and shadow of the face under various lighting and angles. Taking into account not only the resting face but also changes in expression, the doctor sketches a golden-ratio design of your own. If the AI data tells us 'what', the specialist's eye decides 'how'.
STEP 03 — Realization
Plus & Minus Solution: Reduce and Fill
Based on the designed plan, we precisely reduce unnecessary volume (Minus) and naturally restore collapsed volume (Plus). Because subtraction and addition are done together, the result is balanced and not skewed to one side.
PLUS & MINUS SOLUTION
A Two-Way Contouring Solution That Reduces and Fills
A one-directional treatment cannot create a natural contour.
The Other balances the whole face with a two-directional solution that clears away what is unnecessary and fills in what has collapsed.
– Minus Solution
Precisely Removing Unnecessary Volume and Fat
We selectively break down and clear the targeted fat layers, such as buccal fat, the double chin, and the cheekbone area, where excess volume has gathered and makes the face look larger or saggy.
The Other Contouring Injection
This contouring injection is formulated by The Other Dermatology. It effectively breaks down fat in the cheeks, double chin, and the area below the cheekbones to create a defined contour line.
+ Plus Solution
Restoring Collapsed Volume with Elasticity
Instead of the artificial feel of a filler, we inject a booster that stimulates the skin's own collagen production into sunken areas, giving a natural and lively dimensionality.
Collagen Booster
We inject a booster that promotes collagen production into areas where volume has collapsed, such as the front of the cheekbones, the side cheeks, and the nasolabial folds. Rather than filling the area, it encourages the skin to create volume on its own, producing a result that looks more natural over time.
Combined Skin Booster
Along with the collagen booster, we combine a skin booster that improves moisture and elasticity in the skin at the same time, addressing skin texture and radiance as well as volume restoration.

EXPECTED BENEFITS
3 Results of The Other Facial Contouring
Natural Look
Not an artificially plump face, but the volume of your own face at its best. We aim for a natural result that does not look filled, as if it had always been this way.
Dimensionality
With clearer contrast between light and shadow, the face looks smaller. We aim for a dimensional contour that looks good from the front, the side, and at a 45-degree angle.
Improved Elasticity
Unnecessary weight is removed and collagen is built up in the skin, for a combined lifting effect. Because Minus and Plus work together, you can expect an anti-aging effect beyond simple contour correction.

FAQ
Frequently Asked Questions
How is it different from fillers?
A standard filler creates volume immediately by injecting a substance. The Plus Solution of The Other facial contouring uses a booster that stimulates the skin's own collagen production, so the skin creates the volume itself. The result appears gradually, but it is much more natural and does not look filled, which is the biggest difference. In addition, because the Minus Solution is combined to clear unnecessary volume at the same time, the overall balance is maintained.
How long does the treatment take, and what is the downtime?
It takes about 1 to 1.5 hours, including the 3D AI analysis and consultation. Temporary redness or swelling may occur after treatment, but it usually goes away naturally within 2 to 3 days and does not greatly interfere with daily life. It varies with the treatment area and your skin condition, so we explain it in detail during the consultation.
When do the effects appear, and how long do they last?
The effect of the Minus Solution (volume reduction) appears gradually over 2 to 4 weeks after treatment, and with the Plus Solution (collagen booster), volume builds up naturally over 4 to 12 weeks as your own collagen is produced. The optimal result can be seen around 1 to 3 months after treatment, when both effects combine. It varies by individual, but the effects last for 6 months to over a year.
Is the AGNES treatment painful?
Before treatment we apply sufficient numbing cream and, when needed, nerve anesthesia to minimize pain during the procedure. Because fine insulated needles are used, there is almost no damage to the surrounding tissue, and bruising or swelling after treatment is relatively mild.
Can I get the result I want with one session?
It depends on each person's condition and goals, but most people can get a satisfactory result with 1 to 3 sessions. We plan the number of sessions and the intervals precisely based on the 3D AI analysis data, and we aim for a safe and natural result through a gradual approach rather than excessive treatment.
Can it be combined with other lifting treatments?
Yes. Combining it with lifting treatments such as Ultherapy, Thermage, or Sofwave can be expected to give a synergy of contour correction plus improved skin elasticity. Because The Other Dermatology has a full lineup of lifting devices, we design the combination plan best suited to each patient’s condition and goals.
Not the parts, but the harmony of the whole.
