Wangsimni Dermatology Clinic: Looking at the Full Process from Acne Extraction to Gold PTT and Genesis Toning

From acne extraction to Gold PTT

Hello, this is Raon Dermatology Clinic at Wangsimni Station!

Breakouts that begin appearing one by one on once-clear skin can become a major source of stress, enough to affect daily well-being. Even if you wash your face carefully and try products that are said to be good for the skin, acne can keep coming back, leaving you feeling discouraged. Repeated inflammation is not just a cosmetic issue; it can also cause psychological distress, so it is especially important to look for appropriate ways to respond early.

Acne treatment program

Systematic acne care should cover everything from calming current inflammation to breaking the cycle of recurrence. To do this, it is necessary to take a multifaceted approach that secures a pathway for sebum discharge through extraction and scaling, while using Gold PTT and Genesis toning to address both the causative bacteria and red marks at the same time. Each step is carefully designed to match the skin condition and proceeds systematically, from comedone removal to sebaceous gland control!

The first basic step is extraction, which physically removes already formed comedones, and scaling, which smooths out dead skin cells to create a more comfortable skin environment. When a laser process that uses thermal energy to regulate sebaceous glands and stabilize blood vessels is added, the overall skin environment changes in a healthier direction. In other words, the goal is not to temporarily cover up visible symptoms, but to improve the internal skin environment and maintain a healthy state for a longer period of time.

Acne extraction

First, acne extraction is the most direct method of artificially removing comedones, which are clumps of sebum and waste trapped inside pores. It involves opening the entrance with precise tools and thoroughly emptying the contents before inflammation worsens and damages surrounding tissue. Excessive pressure can leave scars, so the key is to proceed gently and in the direction of the pores with skilled technique!

After carefully disinfecting the skin, the pore openings are secured. Then the comedones are extracted using a specialized instrument. If extraction is not done properly, inflammation is likely to recur or develop into cysts, so detailed work is required. You can think of this as the most basic and also the most important step.

• Reduces pressure inside the pores

• Helps prevent inflammation from spreading / progression to cysts

• Enhances the effects of subsequent scaling / laser treatment

Acne scaling

Next is scaling, which dissolves excess dead skin cells and debris blocking the pore openings using a peeling solution at an appropriate concentration. Once the blocked pathways are opened, sebum can drain more easily, helping suppress the environment in which new acne forms. It is also a preparatory step that clears away unnecessary surface layers of the skin to further enhance the penetration of medications and the effects of lasers that follow :)

After applying a low-irritation ingredient to soften the stratum corneum and remove debris, you can feel the skin texture become clearer. As stagnated sebum naturally escapes, pressure on the pores decreases and the frequency of inflammation also drops. Regular scaling normalizes the skin’s turnover cycle and plays a positive role in making rough skin texture smoother.

Gold PTT

The main treatment begins with Gold PTT! This method involves allowing specially designed fine gold particles to penetrate the sebaceous glands and then applying a laser of a specific wavelength to induce heat-selective destruction. Because the gold particles absorb the laser light and directly deliver thermal energy to the sebaceous glands, it is possible to target only the problem area while avoiding damage to the surrounding skin tissue. It can be a great alternative for those who have been considering medication because of excessive sebum production!

First, the Gold PTT medication is applied to the skin and then infused with ultrasound. Afterward, the remaining medication is wiped off and the laser is applied in a precise sequence. Through this process, enlarged sebaceous glands shrink, acne-causing bacteria are destroyed, and an environment that lowers the likelihood of recurrence is created. If you are dealing with recurring pustular acne or have oily skin that is difficult to control, Gold PTT can help restore a healthy oil-water balance.

• Normalizes sebum production

• Reduces the likelihood of acne recurrence

• Improves skin texture

Genesis toning

Lastly, Genesis toning delivers gentle thermal stimulation to the dermis, helping collagen synthesis and constricting dilated blood vessels. It is a process that reduces the red marks left behind after acne and gives elasticity to enlarged pores, strengthening the skin’s basic condition. Since there is almost no pain during the procedure and you only feel a gentle warmth, it has the advantage of being a comfortable treatment without much burden!

When thermal energy reaches the lower dermis, regeneration of damaged tissue becomes more active and the skin texture visibly improves. In this way, acne treatment can only be considered truly complete when current inflammation removal is organically connected to the management of post-acne marks. If a personalized plan is established by closely considering each person’s skin thickness and condition, it is entirely possible to regain healthy, clear skin :)

• Reduces red marks left by acne

• Constricts tiny blood vessels / promotes collagen regeneration

• Improves overall skin texture
