Juvelook Skinin Gangnam, Seoul
Juvelook Skin is the standard Juvelook formula — fine PDLLA microparticles blended with hyaluronic acid, placed in the upper-to-mid dermis to refine texture, soften fine lines and improve glow. At QD Clinic in Gangnam, Seoul, South Korea, it is chosen for overall skin quality rather than volume. A session usually takes about 20–40 minutes including numbing. (Results vary by individual.)
Who it’s for
- Rough or uneven texture and enlarged-looking pores
- Dull skin that could look more radiant
- Fine lines where you want skin quality rather than volume
- Those wanting broad, even skin-quality improvement across the face
Whether Skin or another Juvelook type suits you is confirmed during consultation.
How it works
Juvelook Skin uses fine PDLLA microparticles blended with hyaluronic acid. Placed in the upper-to-mid dermis with fine microinjections, the HA hydrates immediately while the PDLLA is gradually resorbed and is thought to support collagen renewal, helping refine texture, soften fine lines and improve radiance over a series of sessions. Its finer particle size is aimed at broad skin-quality improvement rather than adding volume — that is the main difference from Juvelook Volume.
THE MECHANISM, STEP BY STEP
01Fine PDLLA with hyaluronic acid
Juvelook Skin uses fine PDLLA microparticles blended with hyaluronic acid, placed in the upper-to-mid dermis.
02Hydration now, texture over time
The HA hydrates immediately, while the finer PDLLA particles are gradually resorbed and are thought to support collagen renewal for texture and glow.
03Finer particles, nearer the surface
The smaller particle size and shallower placement are aimed at broad skin-quality improvement rather than adding volume.
04Why change is gradual
Collagen-related change develops over a series of sessions and the following weeks rather than at once. (Results vary by individual.)

- 4Cooling, soothing and aftercare guidance
Time: A session takes about 20–40 minutes, including numbing time.
Recovery & aftercare
- Little downtime; small papules or raised bumps at the injection sites may appear and usually settle within about 1–2 days.

- Avoid makeup, saunas and intense exercise briefly, use sun protection, and follow the guidance we provide.
What to expect over time
A general guide to how the days and months after treatment usually unfold. Results vary by individual.
DAY 0 Treatment day
Numbing first, then fine microinjections in the upper-to-mid dermis. Small papules or raised bumps may appear, with mild redness or swelling; skin may feel hydrated.
DAY 1-2 Papules settling
The small papules usually settle within about 1–2 days. Minor bruising, if any, starts to fade.
WEEK 1 Hydration felt
Many people notice a hydrated, fresher-looking surface early from the hyaluronic acid. This varies between people.
2-3 MONTHS Texture & glow
Over the sessions and the following weeks, texture and radiance may improve as collagen renews. (Results vary by individual.)
AFTER THE COURSE Review & maintenance
Your doctor reviews the outcome and discusses maintenance timing based on your skin.
Sessions & results
A typical plan is about 2–3 sessions spaced roughly 4 weeks apart, with hydration felt early and texture and glow developing gradually over 2–3 months. Maintenance is considered after a period decided at consultation. (Results vary by individual.)
How it compares
These boosters all support skin quality, but they differ in particle size, depth and material — so the right one depends on whether you want texture, structure or repair support.
| Comparison | Juvelook Skin | Juvelook Volume | Rejuran Healer |
|---|---|---|---|
| Main agent | Fine PDLLA microparticles + HA | Larger PDLLA microparticles + HA | Polynucleotides (from salmon DNA) |
| How it works | Refines texture and glow near the surface | Adds subtle structure placed deeper | Supports the skin’s own repair |
| Often chosen for | Texture, pores and radiance | Softened cheeks, temples, folds | Overall skin quality, fine lines |
| Sessions | Usually 2–3 | Usually 2–3 | Usually 3–4 |
| Downtime | Little; small papules possible | Little; small bumps possible | Little; small bumps possible |
Neither is “better” — they work differently and suit different goals. The right choice is decided after we assess your skin.
Safety & considerations
Possible reactions
- Small papules or raised bumps at the injection sites, usually settling within about 1–2 days
- Temporary redness, mild swelling or a flushed feeling
- Tenderness in the treated area for a short time
- Occasionally minor bruising at injection points
When to take extra care
- Pregnancy or breastfeeding — let us know at consultation
- Active skin infection, inflammation or open lesions in the treatment area
- Known allergy or hypersensitivity to any component of the product
- A history of keloid, granuloma formation or difficulty with wound healing

Whether Juvelook Skin or another type suits your skin is confirmed during consultation. Effects develop gradually and vary by individual, and side effects may occur.

Frequently asked questions
Juvelook Skin is used for overall skin quality: texture, enlarged-looking pores, fine lines and glow. It combines fine PDLLA microparticles with hyaluronic acid, placed in the upper-to-mid dermis with fine microinjections. The hyaluronic acid hydrates straight away, while the PDLLA is gradually resorbed and is thought to support collagen renewal over a series of sessions.
We mainly consider it for people whose skin feels rough with pores and fine lines bothering them at the same time, or whose skin has lost its glow and looks dull. Because the change appears gradually over two to three months, it suits people who can come for two to three sessions about four weeks apart rather than expecting an instant difference. Whether it is right for you is judged after we look at your skin directly.
It focuses on skin quality, so any volume effect is subtle. The particles are finer and placed in the upper-to-mid dermis, which spreads the effect evenly across the face rather than building up a particular area. If restoring lost volume is your main goal, Juvelook Volume, which uses larger particles placed deeper, may be discussed at consultation.
Injection marks and mild redness usually settle within one to three days. Since the product is distributed over the whole face, the marks appear in several places, and some people do bruise, so we recommend leaving about a week before an important occasion. Please avoid saunas, strenuous exercise and alcohol on the day of your treatment.
A typical plan is about two to three sessions spaced roughly four weeks apart. Hydration is felt early, while texture and glow develop gradually over two to three months. After the course, we look at how your skin has responded and decide on maintenance from there.
The material is the same; what differs is the particle size and where we place it. Juvelook Skin has finer particles, so it is spread across the face to work on skin texture, fine lines and the area around the pores, while Juvelook Volume has larger particles and is used to fill in areas that have sunken. As a rule of thumb, if your concern is the texture of the skin itself, Skin is the right choice; if it is a loss of volume, then Volume is.
We first check whether assessment and any necessary follow-up fit your stay. Share your arrival, departure and important event dates before booking. For this treatment, the expected course is as follows. A typical plan is about 2–3 sessions spaced roughly 4 weeks apart, with hydration felt early and texture and glow developing gradually over 2–3 months. Maintenance is considered after a period decided at consultation. (Results vary by individual.) Temporary redness, mild swelling, tenderness or minor bruising may occur. Avoid makeup, saunas and intense exercise briefly, use sun protection, and follow the guidance we provide. Examination may lead to postponement or additional visits. Confirm contact arrangements after returning home and when in-person medical care may be needed. What the doctor checks first for this treatment: “Pores, fine lines, skin texture and shallow changes in volume”.
Often considered together
Treatments that are sometimes planned alongside this one, decided at consultation.
+Ultrasound or RF lifting
Energy-based lifting addresses laxity and deeper support, which boosters do not target — sometimes planned together for skin quality plus firmness. Sequencing is decided by your doctor.
+Botulinum toxin
For dynamic lines from muscle movement (forehead, frown, crow’s feet), often planned alongside skin-quality treatments for a balanced result.
+Juvelook Volume
Where fullness has softened, the larger-particle Volume type adds subtle structure that Skin does not — the two can be planned together at consultation.
