Why Do Breakouts and Enlarged Pores Stay the Same Despite Regular Skin Boosters?

Standard skin boosters supply hyaluronic acid and only temporarily plump the moisture in the stratum corneum. Depressed acne scars and enlarged pores, on the other hand, come from collagen fiber structure in the dermis that has already broken down and been lost; hydration alone cannot fill the hollows underneath. At Gangnam Choice Clinic, when we see this kind of case, the focus is not on how many skin booster sessions you have had, but on whether the cause of the depression lies in the dermis.

Why do depressed acne scars and pores stay unfilled even with regular skin boosters?

Because the two work at different layers. Skin boosters act on moisture in the stratum corneum, while depressed acne scars and enlarged pores are a problem in the dermis — after collagen fiber structure breaks down and is lost, hollows are left underneath, and hydration cannot fill them in.

A common situation in clinic is a patient who gets skin boosters regularly, yet their depressed acne scars and pores have not smoothed at all. This is the reason.

Where is the key to improving depressions?

The key is stimulating your own collagen regeneration.

Juvelook combines PDLLA and non-cross-linked hyaluronic acid. After injection into the superficial dermis, its porous microparticles steadily induce tissue response, prompting the skin to grow collagen again and smoothing the hollows from within.
