[피부] 넓어진 모공 줄이는 가성비 시술 1가지

For XXX, since it's a treatment that uses XXX, people with many fine lines, people with large pores, or people with excessive oil production—those who can't control these concerns—I recommend this procedure.

Firstly, the most important thing is, Skin Rescue Team. Hello, I am Dermatologist Dr. Ogana.

For the clinical case that I will show you, the patient was a female in her early 30s. What was her skin concern when she visited the clinic? In this patient's case, she was concerned about her pores, skin texture, and fine lines. But she had one condition for her treatment: she wanted cost-effective recommendations.

Can you share what treatment you planned and combined? Truthfully, she needed many treatments because she had excessive oil production, and her oil and water balance was completely off. She also had many blemishes and scars. But in terms of good value, and in terms of wanting immediate results, I gave up many options and mainly recommended some simpler procedures. Among them was a procedure called “skin botox.”

Can you please explain while showing the treatment results? Sure. If you see the left image from when she first came in, this is her from February 2022. And this is her after treatment.

When she first came in, her pores were very large, her skin was quite oily, and overall, around her eyes and mouth, there were fine lines starting to form. Then, I performed the skin botox procedure. For skin botox, botulinum toxin is diluted with saline and injected very thinly into the dermis as a treatment. I carefully performed the procedure on her whole forehead, eye area, cheeks, and jawline.

As a result of the procedure, the pores on her forehead and cheeks visibly became smaller, and the patient herself was satisfied with the results.

Then who do you recommend skin botox for? For skin botox, people with many fine lines, or people with large pores or excessive oil production who have difficulty maintaining their skin, will benefit from this.

The botulinum toxin itself paralyzes muscles, but by suppressing acetylcholine receptors, it also effectively makes the skin smooth and is shown to effectively make pores appear smaller. Additionally, since skin botox uses botulinum toxin, the patient's age, skin type, and suitable botox type must all be carefully considered.

If you normally get Botox treatments often, though it's more pricey, using an imported product or Xeomin would be a better choice as it has lower resistance. If you wish to get Botox once in a while for special occasions, for these people, even a budget-friendly procedure like skin botox will be completely safe and provide ample benefits.

There are a lot of things to consider, but the most important thing is the practitioner's technique. Though it is milder, since it still includes Botox, it can make your forehead heavy, make your facial expressions unnatural, or make your lips turn or become crooked. Since it can have these effects, I highly recommend consulting a dermatologist so you may discuss the area and injection amount best for you.

Also, the biggest downside to skin botox is the extremely short duration. It lasts 2 weeks on the short side and 2 months on the long side. It depends on the individual, but the reason it is so short is because diluted Botox is used and it goes into the dermis, so once a certain amount of time passes, there is a fast wash-out effect.

So there are people who think, “If it doesn't last, doesn't that mean there's no effect?” If you get it for important events or regularly get this procedure done, the effects have a cumulative effect, resulting in gradual improvements. I'd say it's worth trying out once as a cost-effective treatment.

I explained all about skin botox. Specific details should be discussed personally during consultation so you can decide. This has been Dermatologist Dr. Ogana. Thank you.
