Korean skin care in aesthetic medicine is inspired by the concepts of Korean beauty culture, which considers a woman's beauty to be sublime. transparent skin, flawless, uniform and deeply moisturised. This model of beauty is based on the idea that the skin needs to be cared for and protected from an early age to prevent the signs of ageing and maintain a fresh, radiant appearance.
In-practice Korean skin care combines targeted medical techniques with the fundamental principles of Korean skin care, namely :
- Deep hydration.
- Improved skin texture.
- Treatment of blemishes and spots.
- Skin firming.
- Overall radiance.
The Korean skin care are recognised around the world for their effectiveness and their ability to give smooth, luminous, blemish-free skin, often referred to as 'perfect skin'. While we often talk about home care routines in several stages, it is important to know that medical aesthetic treatments inspired by Korean techniques
are also becoming increasingly popular. Indeed, in aesthetic medicine, there are treatments that can achieve results comparable to those of perfect Korean skin.
In this article, we will explore in detail the various Korean medical aesthetic treatments for clear, hydrated, wrinkle-free and luminous skin.
To reproduce this Korean approach to skin care, a treatment protocol has been established: the Korean Glass Skin Package.
This method involves two sessions, one month apart.
The first session includes :
- Skin analysis and cleansing.
- Hydrafacial.
- Fractional ablative laser and photorejuvenation.
- PRP.
- LED.
- Moisturising mask.
The second session includes :
- Sculptra.
- PRX-T33 peel.
Before starting treatment, a thorough analysis of the skin is essential. For this, the Skinscope analysis machine is an invaluable tool. This device reveals skin problems that are often invisible to the naked eye, such as pigmentation spots, dehydrated areas, incipient wrinkles, photodamage and pore congestion. Thanks to this precise assessment, Dr Romano can identify the skin's specific needs and tailor the treatment protocol to each patient's particular circumstances.
The skin is cleansed with specific products to purify it without damaging it.
This skin cleansing is carried out to remove all impurities, sebum and dead cells that could clog pores and prevent proper absorption of the Korean Glass protocol treatments.
L'Hydrafacialknown as the BB Shine treatment by Korean women, is an increasingly popular non-invasive treatment designed to leave skin radiant and perfectly cleansed.
The process includes light mechanical exfoliation, followed by vacuum extraction of impurities and blackheads, then hydration with nourishing serums rich in antioxidants. This treatment deeply cleanses the pores while leaving the skin soft and luminous.
The benefits of Hydrafacial are :
- Deep cleansing and exfoliation: this treatment effectively eliminates dead skin cells and impurities, leaving skin clean and revitalised.
- Intense hydration: the use of personalised serums helps to deeply hydrate the skin, leaving it plumped and luminous.
- Radiant complexion: from the very first session, skin looks smoother, radiant and revitalised, with an even complexion and a natural glow.
A session of mesotherapy is carried out immediately afterwards.
In Korea, laser treatments are particularly popular for achieving even, luminous skin.
The most commonly used lasers for Korean treatments are :
- Laser of photorejuvenation It stimulates collagen production by acting on the deeper layers of the skin, while respecting the skin's surface.
- Ablative laser fractional, CO2 or erbium: smoothes the skin and reduces visible imperfections. The principle is to create microperforations in the skin to eliminate pigment and stimulate collagen synthesis.
The benefits of lasers for the skin are :
- Improved texture: the laser smoothes the skin and reduces scars, fine lines and other irregularities.
- Unifying the complexion: lasers treat pigmentation spots and give a uniform, even complexion.
- Collagen stimulation: by boosting collagen production, lasers firm the skin and improve its elasticity.
The skin is more even, smoother and free of imperfections. Laser treatment is essential for achieving skin that meets Korean beauty standards.
Le GWP (Platelet Rich Plasma) is a natural regeneration treatment that uses the patient's own plasma to stimulate the production of collagen and elastin, helping to rejuvenate the skin and improve its texture.
The benefits of PRP are
- Cell regeneration: PRP stimulates cell renewal and improves collagen production, helping to repair tissue and rejuvenate the skin.
- Radiant complexion: skin regains its natural radiance, looking younger, smoother and more even.
- Improved skin texture: PRP helps to smooth the skin, reduce fine lines and improve elasticity.
Therapy LED is a technology used to improve skin radiance and health.
LED therapy uses low-intensity lights, usually red, blue or green, depending on the patient's specific needs.
The benefits of LED therapy are :
- Collagen stimulation: red light helps to stimulate collagen production, improving the skin's elasticity and firmness.
- Acne reduction: blue light targets the bacteria responsible for acne, reducing inflammation and blemishes.
- Radiant complexion: LED therapy improves the clarity and evenness of the complexion, leaving the skin soothed and luminous.
At the end of the procedure, the application of a soothing and moisturising mask completes the treatment by providing the skin with an intense dose of nutrients and comfort. This mask, often rich in soothing ingredients such as aloe vera, antioxidants or hyaluronic acid, adds extra moisture and reduces redness. It creates a protective barrier and leaves the skin soft, luminous and visibly soothed.
Le Sculptra improves skin quality in a lasting way. It is a collagen stimulator that restores density to the skin and gradually improves its appearance.
How does Sculptra work? Sculptra is made up of poly-L-lactic acid, a biocompatible product which, once injected into the skin, stimulates the production of collagen. Unlike injections ofhyaluronic acid which produce immediate results, Sculptra works progressively, naturally rejuvenating and firming the skin over time.
The benefits of Sculptra are :
- Skin firming: Sculptra redensifies and improves skin elasticity.
- Progressive improvement: results are visible after several sessions for a natural and lasting result.
- Plumped-up skin: thanks to the production of new collagen, the skin is plumped up and looks younger and firmer.
Le PRX-T33 peel is a must-have treatment for perfect Korean skin. It's a non-abrasive peel that works deep down to stimulate skin regeneration while respecting the epidermis, which means there's no visible flaking.
It improves the skin's firmness and elasticity and gives a quick, long-lasting radiance boost, an essential criterion in the quest for perfect Korean skin.
The benefits of the PRX-T33 peel are :
- Instant glow effect The skin is immediately brighter, smoother and more radiant after the treatment.
- Skin firming: PRX-T33 stimulates collagen synthesis and improves skin tone.
- Reduced imperfections: pigmentation spots and other irregularities are visibly reduced.
- No recovery time: unlike conventional chemical peels, PRX-T33 requires no social eviction, as there is no visible desquamation.
