- This concentrated energy causes cavitation, vaporizing tissue and creating small holes in the skin through the LIOB (Laser Induced Optical Breakdown) effect.
- Without damaging the skin surface, the laser penetrates deeply into the dermis, creating micro-holes that stimulate fibroblasts to synthesize collagen and elastin fibers. This process promotes skin regeneration, which helps to reduce acne scars, minimize pores, improve skin texture, increase elasticity, reduce fine lines, and achieve whitening effects.

Our Visit

Today, I stopped by the MediCube Clinic in Gangnam. It's a renowned dermatology clinic known for offering top-notch, personalized treatments. Conveniently located just a 3-minute walk from Shin-Nonhyeon Station, it's easily accessible.

Upon entering, I was greeted by displays of their premium MediCube products. While waiting for my appointment, I browsed before-and-after photos from the clinic's previous procedures. The visible results heightened my anticipation.



For those arriving with makeup on, the clinic provides a powder room stocked with MediCube cleansing products. I took the opportunity to cleanse my face and prep for the consultation.

The clinic uses the advanced VISIA skin scanner for precise skin measurements. It was an enlightening experience as it captured my skin's condition from multiple angles, allowing me to understand my skin's age, problematic areas, and strengths.



In the consultation room, the dermatologist's credentials reassured me. We went over my scan results in depth, which allowed me to choose a treatment best suited to my needs. After discussing my concerns, I opted for the 'lifting PREMIUM' procedure (Shurink Ultra+ Shurink Booster+ Egg Lifting+ LDM or Repeat High-Frequency), which encompasses four different treatments designed for facial rejuvenation.

Each step of the treatment was explained to me in detail, from the principles behind them to the expected results. After discussing aftercare and potential side effects – like temporary bruising from the egg lifting procedure – I signed the consent forms and prepared for treatment.

The clinic's private treatment rooms ensured a comfortable and discreet experience. Once settled on the treatment bed, my nerves began to kick in. To ease any potential discomfort, I was offered anesthetic cream, which I gladly accepted.



The procedures themselves were smoother than expected. The egg lifting was warm and pain-free, while the Schlink Booster targeted specific areas of my face. The Schlink Ultra procedure provided an overall lift, and the entire experience concluded with LDM – a treatment designed to boost skin regeneration.



Post-treatment, my skin showed some marks, but they faded significantly within three days and are expected to vanish within a week. The full effects of the treatments are said to manifest in 2-3 weeks, and I'm eagerly awaiting the results.
If you have concerns about your skin or facial structure, I wholeheartedly recommend the MediCube Clinic in Gangnam.
How to Get There

Exit through the 7th exit of Shin Nonhyeon Station.

Turn around and cross the street in the opposite direction of the exit.

Go through the entrance of the first building you see and go up to the sixth floor.

And you're arrived!
