Munjung Station Dermatology: Don’t Just Get Any Procedure—Have the Cause Diagnosed First

Munjung Station Dermatology,

Don’t just get any procedure

Have the cause diagnosed first.

(Department: Dermatology)

Proceeding with a procedure without identifying the cause is unlikely to produce significant results.

“I’ve been to a dermatology clinic,

but my acne keeps coming back.”

“I received scar treatment,

but my pores still look the same.”

“I had a lifting procedure,

but my jawline wasn’t defined as much as I expected.”

When consulting with actual patients, I often hear comments like these.

The treatment order can vary depending on whether your skin is prone to breakouts, has indented scars, or has enlarged pores.

The same applies to lifting procedures. It is important to distinguish whether the face has a sagging jawline, noticeable fat beneath the chin, or thin, loose skin with reduced firmness.

However, when we look at people who say a procedure did not work, the problem is often not that the procedure itself was inadequate, but that the underlying cause of their concern was not properly identified.

Today, I will summarize what people looking for Munjung Station Dermatology (Department: Dermatology) should consider when addressing concerns about acne, scars, and lifting procedures.

Have the cause diagnosed first.

• 1. Distinguish inflammation from scarring in acne.
• 2. Scars and pores differ in the degree of indentation.
• 3. For lifting, distinguish sagging from excess fat.

1. Distinguish inflammation from scarring in acne.

When meeting people who have struggled with acne for a long time, their concerns may seem similar, but their skin conditions were different.

Some people continued to develop small, clogged bumps and inflammatory acne, while others had long-lasting redness and sensitive skin.

For others, their acne had decreased, but indented scars remained on their cheeks and butterfly zone.

Treatment methods vary depending on the type and location of the acne.

If all three types are treated in the same way, it is natural for satisfaction with the results to be lower.

If the skin continues to break out, treatment to reduce sebum and inflammatory responses is needed. In such cases, Neobeam may be discussed during the consultation.

On the other hand, if the acne has almost subsided but indented marks remain, I would like to recommend Rejuran S.

This is because indented scars are closer to a problem involving a depression in the structure of the dermal layer than to discoloration left on the skin’s surface.

In other words, during an acne consultation, it is necessary to carefully determine whether the issue is active inflammation or scars that have already remained. This allows the treatment method and sequence to be decided.

2. Scars and pores

Differ in the degree of indentation.

Many people also come in because their skin does not look smooth even though their acne has decreased.

They say that their cheeks look uneven even after applying makeup, and that foundation settles between their pores, making their skin look more untidy.

In these cases, scars and pores need to be distinguished.

Enlarged pores and indented scars are different.

• 1. Pores

Pores are an issue in which the openings on the skin’s surface appear enlarged. They are often visible around the sides of the nose, the butterfly zone, and the center of the cheeks, and tend to be more noticeable on skin that has produced a lot of sebum.

If the main goal is to improve pores and skin texture, I recommend Picofraxel. This is because it uses a fine laser to stimulate only the dermal layer, helping promote collagen production and tighten the appearance of pores.

• 2. Indented scars

In contrast, indented scars are an issue in which the skin has sunk downward. They often look deeper when shadows form under overhead or side lighting.

Therefore, if the goal is to improve indented scars, I would like to recommend Rejuran S.

This is because it directly delivers a salmon-derived ingredient into the deeper layers of the skin, helping skin cells produce more collagen.

If both concerns are present, the treatment plan should be established by distinguishing the location of the pores, the depth of the scars, and the sensitivity of the skin.

3. For lifting, distinguish sagging from excess fat.

Some people come in saying that they had a lifting procedure but their facial contours and double chin look unchanged.

In these cases, some had a sagging jawline, while others had soft fat that could be grasped beneath the chin or prominent fullness in the buccal fat area.

Even when the concern is the same double chin, the type of lifting procedure can vary depending on the cause.

If the jawline has sagged and the flesh beside the corners of the mouth appears folded, I recommend Ulthera. If the skin has become thinner and fine lines around the eyes and mouth have increased, I recommend Thermage.

If there is noticeable fat beneath the chin and fullness in the buccal fat area, we may also recommend combining InMode or Onda Lifting.

For faces with a substantial amount of tissue, such as a double chin or prominent buccal fat, it may be difficult to address the concern with ultrasound lifting or thread lifting alone, so combined procedures may also be recommended.

Conversely, for people with little facial fat and hollow-looking cheeks, excessive treatment of the fat layer may make the face look even thinner, so caution may be necessary.

Thus, during a lifting consultation, even when the area of concern is the same, it is necessary to distinguish between a sagging jawline, reduced skin firmness, and an issue involving the fat layer.

If you are looking for Munjung Station Dermatology (Department: Dermatology), I hope you will not choose a procedure based on its name alone.

Especially if you have not been satisfied despite receiving procedures in the past, a stronger procedure may not be what you need.

Therefore, I hope you will first receive a thorough diagnosis to identify the cause of your concern—whether it is acne, scarring, pores, sagging, or excess fat.

I hope this article has been helpful to those considering a dermatology clinic. I will conclude here.
