“While looking into skin boosters,

I found a procedure called Lituo.

How is it different from existing collagen boosters?”

Many people try various at-home care methods such as elasticity creams or collagen packs to slow aging even a little.

However, there are also many cases where the effect does not feel as significant as expected.

This is mostly because most cosmetics act mainly on the skin surface, making it difficult for active ingredients to be delivered sufficiently to the dermis, which plays an important role in elasticity.

In such cases, a skin booster procedure that acts on the skin’s structure itself can be a more effective option.

In particular, among skin boosters aimed at improving elasticity, interest in Lituo has recently been growing.

Since there are many collagen boosters, many people seem to wonder what makes Lituo different and whether there is any risk of nodules.

So today, let’s take a detailed look at Lituo’s principle, effects, and the part related to nodules.

  • How Lituo works and its effects
  • Who Lituo is suitable for
  • Are there side effects such as nodules?

Hongdae How Lituo Works and Its Effects

One of the important factors that determine our skin’s elasticity is ECM.

ECM is an essential biological component that firmly supports skin tissue and connects elastic fibers to one another, and it can be said to include collagen, elastin, hyaluronic acid, fibronectin, and more.

However, as we age or repeated external stimuli such as ultraviolet rays continue, the balance of the ECM breaks down and skin elasticity gradually decreases.

Lituo can be seen as a skin booster developed for the purpose of ‘filling in’ this ECM.

While general skin boosters work by ‘stimulating’ collagen production, which is one of the ECM components,

Lituo is characterized by the fact that it directly injects the ECM structure itself into the skin.

It is a procedure focused on rebuilding the skin environment itself by strengthening the ECM that has loosened due to aging and allowing collagen and elastin to form around it.

As a result, as the skin structure gradually becomes firmer, you can expect changes such as softened fine lines and smoother skin texture.

So, who is Lituo suitable for?

Among skin boosters, Lituo is a procedure that especially focuses on ‘improving elasticity,’ so it may be helpful for people concerned about rough skin texture, fine lines, or pores.

In particular, it may be more satisfying for those who previously had a collagen booster procedure and felt that the maintenance period was too short.

Also, because Lituo contains ‘hyaluronic acid’ in addition to improving elasticity, it may be satisfying for people with dry skin.

Hongdae Lituo Are There Side Effects Such as Nodules?

When discussing skin booster consultations, one thing that is always mentioned is nodules.

This is because some skin boosters can cause nodules that feel like hard grains inside the skin after the procedure.

Even if they are not very noticeable on the surface, if they feel firm to the touch, they can be worrying.

It cannot be said that nodules will ‘never occur,’ but in reality, they can be sufficiently prevented depending on where and how they are injected into the skin.

For example, if injections are concentrated in only one area or injected too superficially, the ECM components may not spread evenly and may clump locally, appearing in the form of nodules.

Therefore, if you receive the procedure from medical staff with extensive experience in Lituo, the possibility of such side effects can be sufficiently reduced.

Hongdae Lituo is a procedure that improves elasticity by directly injecting ECM, a key element that supports skin elasticity, to strengthen the skin structure.

Similar to how the steel framework of a building makes the structure stronger, it strengthens the ECM structure inside the skin, allowing overall improvement in elasticity to be expected.

Although side effects such as nodules are sometimes mentioned, this is something that can be sufficiently prevented depending on the procedure method and experience.

Therefore, if you are considering the procedure, it is best to proceed after sufficient consultation at a dermatology clinic with extensive experience.
