The laser procedure that you're worried about before the holidays, "If you want it to work, you have to choose according to your symptoms."

The fine weather these days is good for a picnic, but the fatigue of the skin increases. This is because the atmosphere is dry and the oil and moisture of the skin is escaping, making it rough and prone to wrinkles, and strong UV rays can irritate the skin, causing freckles and blemishes.

This is why laser treatments are popular these days, which can solve skin problems relatively quickly and easily. In fact, more and more inquiries are being made to improve skin and aging problems with laser procedures ahead of the holiday season in early October, which is followed by a series of Chuseok and alternative holidays.

The most representative procedure is lifting laser. Lifting laser is a direct examination of high-intensity focused ultrasonography (HIFU) to the peritoneal layer in line with current skin condition, soft tissue and degree of aging, and can shrink skin tissue to achieve immediate tightening effect of skin.

It also stimulates the peritoneum, not the epidermis, so the traces of the procedure are not visible, so there is no need for a separate recovery period to allow makeup immediately after the procedure. Since it is a non-surgical method, there is no burden on surgery, and all age groups from 20s to 50s to 60s can be treated.

CC laser treatment is a laser procedure that treats pigmented lesions such as freckles, skin blemishes, and wide pores, wrinkles, and acne scars without damage to the epithelium. It has collagen contraction effect, so you can experience skin elasticity and skin tone improvement. Fine scabs can occur after the procedure, which usually falls within a week, and when the scab is eliminated, it improves to smooth and bright skin.

The energy intensity and treatment mode can also be adjusted, allowing treatment even if the skin is sensitive. The treatment time is short to about 10 minutes, and the recovery period is fast because it is a non-peptic procedure.

Even if it is a relatively light laser procedure, it is not easy to directly investigate the laser because the skin around the eyes, mouth, and neck wrinkles, including the nasolabial folds, are sensitive and thin.

Smile lifting is a high-frequency procedure that can be directly applied around the eyes, mouth wrinkles, and neck wrinkles that are difficult to improve with ordinary lasers or procedures, and it can be expected to have skin tightening and remodeling effects as it directly investigates strong RF energy in the dermis layer, stimulates fiber cells and collagen fibers in the dermis layer, and regenerates new collagen.

"It's a time when various events are pouring out ahead of the golden holiday in May, and it's not right to get a cheap treatment because lasers are all similar," said Dr. Lee Tae-hee, a plastic surgeon and director of Faceline Plastic Surgery. "It's good to consult a specialist because the laser has different improvement effects depending on the type of laser and the same procedure can have different effects depending on the patient's current skin condition."

He added, "Even if there is no recovery period, applying sunscreen and moisturizing cream meticulously helps keep your skin healthy."
