Laser & light treatments in Gangnam, Seoul
Pigment, redness, scars, texture, laxity and unwanted hair — each matched to the right laser or light device after a physician assessment and AI 3D skin analysis.
Which laser treatment is right for me?
The right laser depends on the target. Pigment lasers such as pico and laser toning break up melanin; IPL treats pigment and redness together; fractional lasers such as Fraxel and CO2 remodel collagen for scars and texture; and hair-removal and ablative lasers remove follicles, moles and skin tags. A doctor matches the device to your skin. Many plans combine two treatments for a better result.
At MIN Clinic, your skin is assessed with AI 3D skin analysis and by a physician before any energy is set, especially for melasma-prone or darker skin where heat can trigger pigmentation.

Laser treatment questions we hear most
Can’t find your answer? Message our English-speaking team on WhatsApp.
Which laser is best for pigmentation?
It depends on the type. Laser toning suits melasma; pico laser suits freckles and sun spots; IPL suits spots with redness. See pigmentation & redness.
Which laser is best for acne scars?
Fractional lasers — Fraxel for milder scars and CO2 fractional for deeper ones — are often combined with subcision or RF microneedling.
Are lasers safe for Asian skin?
Yes, with conservative settings and sun protection. Asian skin is more prone to post-inflammatory pigmentation, so energy and intervals are adjusted.
How much downtime should I plan?
Toning, IPL and hair removal have essentially none; pico spot treatment needs about a week for crusts to shed; Fraxel 2–5 days; CO2 about a week.
Can I have laser treatment on a short trip?
Yes. Many no-downtime lasers fit a single visit; plan more days for resurfacing so your doctor can check healing before you fly.
