Hello.
This is Kim Jang-ju from Hapjeong Dermatology.
If your skin looks rough overall
or makeup sits unevenly and breaks down quickly,
it may not simply be a matter of moisture
or skincare management.
In particular, if your pores appear prominent
and fine lines are lightly spread across the skin,
the skin’s own texture may be
in a disrupted state.
At times like these, the procedure many people
have recently been considering is
skins Botox.
Among the people who actually visit
Hapjeong Dermatology,
more and more are consulting about skins Botox
because they want their overall skin to look better,
rather than improving just one wrinkle.
What exactly is skins Botox?
Skins Botox is
not a treatment that targets muscles
like regular Botox,
but a procedure that is injected in very fine amounts
into the shallow layer of the skin (the dermis).
Simply put,
instead of working strongly on one area,
it works as if it were spread thinly across the entire face,
improving the overall condition of the skin.
Through this process,
✔ control of excessive sebum production
✔ pore-minimizing effect
✔ reduction of fine lines
✔ improvement of skin texture
✔ less shine
can be expected.
As a result,
the reaction is often less,
“Where did it change?” and more,
👉 “Your skin looks better.”
👉 “Your makeup goes on well.”
Because of these characteristics, at Hapjeong Dermatology,
it is consistently chosen by people who want
natural skin improvement.
How is it different from regular Botox?

This is one of the parts that causes a lot of confusion.
Regular Botox focuses on
✔ specific areas such as the forehead, glabella, and eye area
✔ improving wrinkles by reducing muscle movement
On the other hand, skins Botox differs in that it
✔ acts on the skin layer, not the muscles
✔ has almost no effect on facial expressions
✔ improves the overall condition of the face
So it is better suited for people who think,
“I’m worried my expression will become awkward,”
or “I want a natural change that isn’t obvious.”
For this reason, at Hapjeong Dermatology,
it is often considered as a first Botox procedure.
Recommended especially for these people

✔ When pores look enlarged
✔ When the skin feels rough and dull overall
✔ When fine lines are spread across the face
✔ When makeup sits poorly and doesn’t last
✔ When shine and oiliness are a concern
✔ When you want the skin to naturally look “better”
In other words, it is suitable for people who want to improve
the overall condition of their skin,
not just one specific wrinkle.
In fact, at Hapjeong Dermatology,
people visiting with these concerns
have been steadily increasing.
Important points before the procedure

Skins Botox may seem simple,
but the results can vary greatly.
The reason is that
✔ injection depth
✔ injection spacing
✔ medication concentration
✔ design based on skin condition
these four factors are very important.
If it is too shallow, the effect may be insufficient,
and if it is too deep, it can act more like regular Botox,
so the key is to inject evenly at the correct layer.
That is why at Hapjeong Dermatology,
treatment is carried out in a customized way
after fully analyzing each person’s skin condition.
How is the procedure performed?

✔ Apply numbing cream
✔ Set the design according to skin condition
✔ Fine injections across the face or by area
✔ Finish after checking for even distribution
The procedure itself is relatively simple,
but it requires delicate technique.
Procedure time and recovery process

Right after the procedure,
✔ tiny raised bumps (embossing)
✔ slight redness
may appear, but
in most cases they naturally subside within a few hours.
Depending on the individual,
they may last for about a day,
but they usually do not interfere much with daily life.
When do the results appear?

✔ Changes begin gradually after 3 to 5 days
✔ The most natural state appears after 1 to 2 weeks
At this point,
-
the skin texture looks smoother
-
pores appear less prominent
-
makeup adhesion feels improved
are common impressions.
Especially when wearing makeup,
there are many reactions like,
“Your skin looks so much better.”
In this way, at Hapjeong Dermatology,
we place importance on the natural improvement process
rather than an immediate dramatic change.
How long does it last?

Usually, although it varies by person,
✔ it lasts about 2 to 3 months
in many cases.
Depending on skin condition and lifestyle habits,
the duration may vary,
and when managed consistently,
the skin condition may tend to stay more stable over time.
Precautions after the procedure

🍬 Avoid strong cleansing and massage on the day of the procedure
🍬 Refrain from saunas and steam rooms for about 2 to 3 days
🍬 Avoid drinking alcohol and smoking for at least 2 to 3 days
🍬 Be careful not to apply strong pressure or irritation to the skin
Especially in the early stage,
minimizing irritation
helps maintain the effect.
Skins Botox may not look like a major change,
but it is a procedure that creates skin that clearly looks better.
It may feel like a small change,
but even improving just the skin texture
can make the overall impression look different.
What matters is to proceed appropriately,
without overdoing it and in a way that suits your skin.
I hope this article has been practically helpful
for those of you considering skins Botox.
Thank you for reading to the end.
