[JAYJUN Plastic Surgery·Dermatology] Are Skin Boosters Necessary in Summer Too?

There is something many people commonly notice when summer arrives.

“Your skin becomes dry more quickly and feels somewhat rough and dull.”

With strong UV exposure, high humidity, and indoor air conditioning,

skin is placed in an environment that exposes it to more irritation in summer than you might expect.

That is why, these days, interest is growing in care methods that go beyond simple “moisturizing”

and aim to improve the skin’s overall condition itself.

Why does skin become tired more easily in summer?

In summer, multiple environmental factors affecting the skin act at the same time.

• Strong UV exposure

• Increased sweat and sebum production

• Dryness caused by indoor air conditioning

These three factors repeatedly affect the skin, making it easy for its balance to become disrupted.

In particular, UV exposure is known to affect not only the issue of tanning but also collagen and elasticity within the skin.

These accumulated irritants can lead to “photoaging.”

What is a skin booster?

A skin booster is a treatment that directly delivers active ingredients to the dermal layer of the skin rather than to its surface.

Commonly used ingredients include the following:

✔ Hyaluronic acid

✔ PN / PDRN ingredients

✔ Complex ingredients related to skin regeneration

These ingredients help improve the moisture environment within the skin

and stabilize its overall condition.

Basic daily care is also the most important part of summer skincare.

Sunscreen is essential!

Apply it at least 30 minutes before going outside.

Because sweating and sebum production increase in summer,

cleanse your face thoroughly.

Drink at least 2 liters of water a day,

and make hydration a habit by drinking water regularly.

When you do not get enough sleep, sebum production increases and your skin’s condition worsens.

Get sufficient sleep.

When this basic care is carried out alongside other treatments,

it can be more helpful for maintaining the skin’s condition.

Because summer skin receives many irritants at the same time,

it is advisable to manage the skin’s environment itself

rather than focusing only on “oil-and-moisture balance.”

Why skin boosters may be needed

Summer creates an environment in which skin can become sensitive easily

and its moisture balance can also be easily disrupted.

In such cases, skin boosters are often selected as a way to “supplement” the skin’s condition.

They are not treatments that simply resolve “dryness.”

Skin boosters are often thought of as “treatments for when the skin is dry,”

but in fact, they can be viewed as a somewhat broader concept.

The key is not simply “supplying moisture,”

but creating an environment that allows the skin to maintain a healthy condition.

When the condition of the skin barrier is stabilized,

• Sensitivity to external irritants may decrease

• Skin texture may improve

• The overall condition of the skin may be maintained

These are some of the changes that may be expected.

Skin boosters may be considered for managing skin condition particularly in situations such as:

People who spend a lot of time outdoors

Those with a vacation approaching

Those whose skin becomes dry and rough easily

A skin booster is not simply a treatment for resolving internal dryness.

By improving the moisture, barrier, elasticity, and texture of tired skin,

it can help maintain a healthy skin condition.

• Rejuran

This skin booster uses PN, a substance that helps with the regeneration of skin tissue, to help improve a damaged skin environment.

It is effective for improving the oil-and-moisture balance, elasticity, and fine lines.

• Juvelook

A skin booster that induces collagen production, it may help improve skin elasticity, pores, and scars.

• Revive

This skin booster combines hyaluronic acid and glycerol. Glycerol helps retain the moisture drawn in by hyaluronic acid, supporting a hydrated and radiant appearance.

• Sculptra

The PLLA ingredient promotes collagen production within the skin, so over time,

natural-looking volume and elasticity may be expected.

• Baby Injection

(PDRN + Botox + Hyaluronic Acid + Lidocaine)

The PDRN ingredient helps with skin regeneration and the improvement of damaged skin condition, while the use of lidocaine may help reduce pain during the treatment.

• PDRN Salmon Injection

(PDRN + Lidocaine)

This combination skin booster allows you to expect the skin-regenerating effects of PDRN, the moisturizing effects of hyaluronic acid, and the pore- and fine-line-improving effects of Botox together.

• PRP Glow Injection

(PRP + Hyaluronic Acid)

Using PRP extracted from the patient’s own blood together with hyaluronic acid, it helps with skin regeneration and may help improve hydrated skin texture and a natural glow.

After a skin booster treatment, the skin is temporarily sensitive, so it is advisable to follow several precautions to support recovery.

✅ Avoid makeup on the day of the treatment, and after returning home, cleanse gently as instructed by the clinic.

✅ For approximately 2–3 days after the treatment, it is advisable to avoid alcohol, smoking, saunas and jjimjilbangs, and strenuous exercise.

These activities can raise the skin’s temperature, causing redness, swelling, or bruising to last longer.

✅ When going outside, apply sunscreen thoroughly and use enough moisturizer to prevent the skin from becoming dry.

Sufficient moisturization can also help with skin recovery.

✅ Do not frequently touch or rub the treated area with your hands, and avoid massages or strong pressure.

Unnecessary irritation to the skin may delay recovery.

✅ We recommend discontinuing the use of irritating functional cosmetics, such as scrubs, peeling products, retinol, and AHA/BHA, for approximately 3–7 days.

It is safer to use them after the skin has recovered sufficiently.

Temporary redness, swelling, bruising, or embossing may appear after the treatment depending on the individual, and in most cases, these naturally improve over time.

However, if abnormal symptoms such as severe pain or swelling, pus, or changes in skin color persist, it is advisable to consult the medical institution where you received the treatment.
