Dermatology in Korea: Everyday Self-Care

Whenever I go back to the UK or Sweden, the first question I always get from friends and colleagues is: “What skincare products are you using? Your skin looks like glass!”

Of course, everyone knows that Korean cosmetics are famous worldwide. But my biggest “secret” isn’t just a cream or an overnight mask — it’s something much more common in Seoul than people abroad imagine: dermatologist treatments.

In Seoul, dermatology clinics are everywhere — as common as cafés. Locals don’t see them as a luxury, but as regular maintenance. Over the years, I’ve tried many procedures, from lasers to peels to injections. The ones that made the most difference weren’t about changing my face — they were about improving my skin health.

Today, I want to share the three treatments that I (and many Koreans) love to combine: Rejuran, Juvelook, and the Chanel Injection.

1. Rejuran: The Healer Injection

What it is: Rejuran (리쥬란) is made from polynucleotides (PN) derived from salmon DNA. These molecules have powerful regenerative properties.

What it does: Repairs skin cells, improves elasticity, restores hydration.

Results: Fewer fine lines, smoother texture, stronger barrier, and the glossy shine Koreans call yoon-gi (윤기).

Why I love it: It doesn’t change your face shape like fillers or Botox. It simply makes your skin look healthier and younger from within.

2. Juvelook: The Collagen Builder

What it is: Juvelook (쥬베룩) is an injectable with polylactic acid (PLA) particles.

What it does: Stimulates natural collagen production.

Best for: Firmness, acne scars, pore tightening.

Results: Gradual improvement over 2–3 sessions. Skin feels firmer, more even, and youthful.

Why I love it: Results last longer than fillers and look natural — as if my own skin is working harder for me.

3. Chanel Injection: The Glow Cocktail

What it is: A nourishing cocktail of vitamins, minerals, amino acids, glutathione, and hyaluronic acid.

What it does: Brightens, hydrates, and revives dull skin.

Results: Instant radiance and glow. Perfect if your skin feels tired or uneven.

Why I love it: Unlike the other two, the effect is immediate. You walk out of the clinic with luminous, refreshed skin.

Why Combine Them?

  • Rejuran = heals and regenerates.
  • Juvelook = builds collagen and firmness.
  • Chanel Injection = adds glow and hydration.

Together, they cover everything: short-term glow, mid-term firmness, and long-term skin health. Think of it like a house: Rejuran repairs the foundation, Juvelook strengthens the walls, and the Chanel Injection adds the final radiant finish.

What It’s Really Like

Pain: Manageable with numbing cream, and some clinics offer light sleep anesthesia.

Aftercare: Small bumps like mosquito bites for 24–48 hours (normal).

Downtime: Very minimal compared to lasers or surgery.

Cost: In Seoul, sessions range ₩150,000–₩600,000 (about $130–$500), depending on the clinic and combination.

Why This Feels Normal in Korea

In Europe, people often see dermatology treatments as a luxury or insecurity. In Seoul, they’re seen as maintenance — like going to the gym or hair salon. That’s why my so-called “secret” isn’t really a secret at all here: it’s everyday self-care.

My Honest Thoughts

If I had to choose only one, I’d pick Rejuran for long-term results. But the trio of Rejuran + Juvelook + Chanel Injection is unbeatable:

  • After Rejuran → skin feels healthier and smoother.
  • After Juvelook → skin feels firmer and lifted.
  • After Chanel → skin looks glossy and radiant overnight.

Together, they’re why people always ask me about my glow.

Final Words

K-Beauty is not just about serums and sheet masks (though I love those too). The real secret is how Koreans approach skin health holistically — balancing daily skincare with professional treatments.

So next time someone asks me, “Which cream do you use for your glow?” I’ll smile and say: it’s not just the cream. It’s Rejuran, Juvelook, and a little Chanel Injection. Maybe one day, I’ll take them with me to my favourite Seoul clinic so they can experience it too.
