Autumn has returned, bringing sudden cold winds and making it time to take out thick clothes.
The weather is warm during the day at around 25°C,
but it can be very hard to adjust to the cold mornings and evenings.
At times like this, it is important to take care of your body,
but your skin also becomes more sensitive,
so you need to pay especially close attention to it.
That is because the skin can become dry in the colder weather,
and due to the large temperature differences between day and night, its elasticity can also decrease.
In addition, autumn is the period when the ozone layer becomes thinnest,
so ultraviolet rays you are exposed to without realizing it can cause photoaging of the skin,
meaning worsened pigmentation such as melasma, freckles, and blemishes, as well as signs of skin aging like wrinkles and enlarged pores.
People who have these issues are especially concerned about one thing.
That is pores. During puberty, pores became enlarged due to increased sebum,
but as we age, pores can also widen because the skin loses elasticity.
Enlarged pores create rough skin texture,
so even if you apply makeup, you cannot achieve beautiful-looking skin,
and because waste and sebum easily build up between pores,
people try to reduce pores because they can cause acne, whiteheads, or blackheads.

Among the areas of the face, the ones with the largest pores are the cheeks from beside the nose to the cheekbones,
which are called the butterfly zone.
Because it is a wide area and also very noticeable,
many people are especially concerned about the pores in the butterfly zone,
and making an effort to get rid of pores in the butterfly zone requires extra care.
Did you know that there are different types of pores?
This can be discussed together with the reasons pores become enlarged.
There are horizontal pores and vertical pores.
Because many people only think of pores as simply enlarged, this may sound somewhat unfamiliar.
First, horizontal pores are a phenomenon often seen in teenagers and people in their 20s.
For many reasons, such as hormonal secretion and an imbalance in the skin,
sebaceous glands in the pores can overproduce sebum.
This refers to pores expanding into a round shape due to excessive sebum secretion.
Vertical pores can be discussed in relation to aging after the 20s.
As people age, skin elasticity decreases,
and the skin sags for reasons such as a reduction in collagen in the skin.
As this happens, not only does the skin sag, but the pores sag as well.
When the pores sag in this way and stretch into an oval shape, they are called vertical pores.
People who want to get rid of pores in the butterfly zone
mostly tend to have vertical pores.
However, if you try to use anti-aging cosmetics, they tend to be too oily and make breakouts a concern,
and if you use cosmetics made for blemish-prone skin, the pores become a concern.
Even when using cosmetics related to pore reduction, it is difficult to see noticeable results,
so more and more people are turning their attention to recently popular pore-reduction procedures.

Most of the pore-reduction procedures previously used to get rid of pores in the butterfly zone were Fraxel.
Fraxel is a method that technifies the skin's natural healing process over time when it is injured.
After intentionally creating tiny wounds in the skin, it reduces pores through the skin's natural recovery process.
However, because regenerative ability declines with age, a relatively long recovery period is needed,
and the procedure is painful enough that even applying anesthetic cream can still feel burdensome.
For these reasons, many people may have hesitated to undergo pore-reduction procedures.

For those who have been worried like this, today we would like to introduce a new method for getting rid of pores in the butterfly zone:
Pico laser.
In the term pico laser, "pico" means one trillionth of a second,
and it refers to a technology that delivers stronger laser energy in a shorter amount of time at the pico scale,
about 1,000 times faster than conventional toning lasers delivered in the nano range.

Because pico laser delivers strong laser energy,
it has a pore-reduction effect that can provide the results of 10 sessions of conventional pore laser treatment in just 2 to 5 sessions.
In addition, because energy is delivered to the dermal layer using an MLA lens,
the skin is damaged less, allowing a quick return to daily life.

Pico laser works by creating tiny holes below the epidermis
and stimulating the production of new collagen.
Through this, you can expect not only pore reduction but also effects on pigmentation conditions such as melasma, blemishes, and tattoos, as well as wrinkle reduction.
At our clinic, you can receive discounted prices every Tuesday and Thursday for all petit procedures,
including the pico laser, which is great for getting rid of pores in the butterfly zone.
We are currently running a cheerful Tuesday-Thursday event.
