Quick answer

Which laser treatment is right for my skin concern?

Each laser treatment targets something different: pigment lasers (such as pico and laser toning) treat hyperpigmentation and melasma; fractional lasers like Fraxel resurface acne scars and texture; vascular settings target redness; and dedicated systems handle hair removal and tattoos. At JIA Skin Clinic Gangnam your doctor chooses the laser and settings for your skin type, with downtime ranging from none to about a week and most concerns needing a series of sessions.

FAQ

Laser treatment questions, answered

Is laser treatment safe for Asian skin?

Yes, with appropriate devices and settings. Medium and darker skin tones carry a higher risk of post-inflammatory pigmentation, so your doctor adjusts energy carefully.

How many laser sessions do I need?

It depends on the concern. Laser toning often needs 5–10 sessions, resurfacing for scars around 3–5, and hair removal several sessions spaced weeks apart.

Does laser treatment hurt?

Most lasers feel like a snapping or warm sensation. Numbing cream is used for stronger treatments such as resurfacing.

Which laser is best for melasma?

Melasma is usually treated gently with low-energy toning or pico lasers combined with skincare and sun protection, because aggressive lasers can make it worse.

Can I get laser treatment while visiting Seoul?

Many lasers have little downtime, but you must protect your skin from the sun afterwards. Your doctor will plan sessions around your stay.
