First Time Getting Aesthetic Treatment in Korea: How to Choose Treatments by Skin Condition
Gangnam Choice Clinic matches three common skin conditions to different treatment combinations: laxity and double chin, dryness and dullness, and enlarged pores with acne scars or indentations. Each has its own pairing approach, and there are scheduling points to keep in mind.
When Gangnam Choice Clinic puts together treatment combinations for first-time visitors, it first sorts needs into a few categories by skin condition and then matches each to a different combination, rather than using the same approach for everyone. Laxity and double chin are one category, dryness with sallow dullness is another, and enlarged pores with acne scars or indentations is yet another.
What combination suits laxity and double chin?
ONDA paired with Shrink ultrasound, following the idea of reducing fat first and lifting afterward.
- ONDA handles fat reduction
- Shrink ultrasound handles lifting
Done in this order, the two make the facial lines look more defined.
How should dryness and sallow dullness be combined?
Rejuran Black Box plus Juvelook, providing deep hydration along with self-generated collagen.
This set targets dry skin and sallow, dull conditions, with the focus on hydration and collagen; the result is a skin feel on the more dewy side.
What is used for enlarged pores and acne scars or indentations?
Potenza gold microneedling plus pico toning.
The former addresses pores and uneven texture, the latter targets roughness and skin tone; together, the skin feels smoother and more hydrated.
How should the schedule be arranged?
Treatments like skin boosters or microneedling leave redness for 1-2 days, so scheduling them in the first few days of your trip works better.
The last day can be reserved for treatments with no downtime, so they don't affect what comes after. The clinic is in Gangnam, Seoul; for a first visit, thinking through the order in advance is far more comfortable than deciding on the spot.
