Skin education injection

Skin improvement that nourishes moisture and firmness from the foundation of the skin.

As we age, we start to worry about dryness, enlarged pores, and loss of firmness and moisture in our skin...
Skin-nurturing injections address such skin concerns from within, bringing out the natural beauty of your skin.
While skincare can only target the stratum corneum on the surface of the skin, skin-nourishing injections can directly target the dermis with a needle, increasing elastin and collagen production within the dermis and improving the skin from the root.
With each treatment, you'll notice improved moisture and a more radiant complexion, making this treatment ideal for those who want to improve their skin texture and gain confidence in their natural skin.

What is a "skin rejuvenation injection"?

Skin booster injections are a treatment method that involves directly injecting beauty ingredients into the skin to promote the production of collagen and elastin, thus "regenerating and nurturing the skin." In contrast to conventional hyaluronic acid and Botox injections that "fill in wrinkles" and "relax muscles," skin booster treatments that fundamentally improve skin quality have been gaining attention in recent years.
Skin problems such as roughness and dryness are often caused by damage to the dermis, the deeper layer of the skin, which weakens cell turnover and the skin's barrier function. By injecting beauty ingredients into this layer, collagen production is stimulated, fundamentally improving the skin's ability to retain moisture and become healthy, resistant to external stimuli.

However, with so many different ingredients, formulations, and treatment methods available, many people may be unsure which one to choose. Here, we introduce the skin-enhancing injections offered at our clinic, categorized by specific concerns.

Recommended skin-conditioning injections for different skin concerns

  • (I.e.

    Cause

    As we age, our skin's ability to retain moisture decreases due to disruptions in cell turnover and a reduction in components that retain sebum and moisture.

    Effective skin-restoring injections

  • pores

    Cause

    There are several causes of enlarged pores, including excessive sebum secretion, sagging due to aging, and disruption of skin cell turnover. Treatment methods vary depending on the cause.

    Effective skin-restoring injections

  • Reddish

    Cause

    The skin appears red due to a weakened barrier function caused by irritation, inflammation, and dilation of capillaries (blood vessels widen due to an immune response).

    Effective skin-restoring injections

  • Sagging

    Cause

    As we age, and due to factors such as UV exposure and dryness, collagen and elastin, which maintain skin elasticity, decrease. As the muscles that support the skin (facial muscles) weaken, gravity causes the skin to sag.

    Effective skin-restoring injections

  • Fine wrinkles

    Cause

    These tend to become more noticeable when dry skin, UV damage, and a decrease in skin metabolism (cell turnover) due to aging all combine. They are particularly common in areas with thin skin, such as around the eyes and mouth.

    Effective skin-restoring injections

  • dullness and hyperpigmentation

    Cause

    It is caused by five factors: dryness, poor blood circulation, inflammation such as acne, melanin accumulation due to UV rays, buildup of old dead skin cells, and glycation.

The difference between manual injection, mesotherapy, and Potenza

手打ち

Manual injection involves a doctor injecting the substance locally. This allows for precise targeting of different skin layers based on skin thickness, enabling concentrated injection into specific areas of concern.
While some leakage of the medication may occur with machines, manual injection allows for the complete and complete delivery of the medication, which is another advantage.

water light injection

Aqua injection involves directly injecting ingredients into the superficial layers of the skin. Because it uses a device with nine ultra-fine needles, it allows for uniform injection depth and speed, minimizing pain.
Furthermore, because the skin is wounded when injected with a needle, collagen is produced through the skin's natural regenerative power (wound healing), which can be expected to be effective against fine wrinkles and dullness.

Potenza (drug delivery)

Potenza injects components into the shallow layers of the skin while irradiating them with high-frequency radio waves (RF).
In addition to reducing fine lines and dullness through wound healing, the application of high-frequency radio waves (RF) heat makes it effective for a wide range of skin concerns, including acne scars and enlarged pores.

Downtime and disadvantages of skin-enhancing injections

  • Point

    It does not have an immediate effect.

    Unlike hyaluronic acid injections, this procedure does not directly fill in wrinkles, so wrinkles and skin texture will not improve immediately after the treatment.

  • Point

    Requires several treatments

    Since the skin-improving injections don't produce noticeable changes after just one treatment, we recommend continued treatment. While the gradual improvement without others noticing is an advantage, those who want to see results quickly may find the lack of immediate effects to be a disadvantage.

Treatment overview

Duration of treatment 30 to 60 minutes
pain Depending on the area, you may experience a slight tingling pain or a dull pain during injection.
