IPL in Gangnam, Seoul

What Is IPL?

IPL uses broad-spectrum light to treat a range of skin concerns including sun damage, redness, pigmentation, and dullness. Unlike lasers, it emits multiple wavelengths, allowing it to target melanin, hemoglobin, and texture irregularities all at once. It’s a popular maintenance treatment for achieving even-toned, radiant skin.

The Treatment Experience in Seoul

1. Comprehensive Skin Diagnosis

Specialists assess your skin using imaging devices to detect hidden pigmentation and vascular issues. Treatment plans are then customized based on wavelength filters and skin sensitivity.

2. Light-Based Rejuvenation

After applying a cooling gel, the IPL device glides across the skin, emitting quick flashes of light. The process takes 20–30 minutes and is well-tolerated with minimal discomfort.

3. Aftercare Recommendations

Skin may appear slightly flushed post-treatment, but this resolves within hours. Hydration masks and sunblock are typically provided for home care.

Results and Maintenance

Freckles, sunspots, and broken capillaries lighten within 1–2 sessions. Skin becomes smoother and brighter with each treatment. For best results, 3–5 sessions spaced 3–4 weeks apart are recommended.

Cost in Korea

IPL sessions usually cost between ₩150,000 and ₩500,000 depending on coverage area and device brand. Packages are often available for full-face or face-and-neck treatments at discounted rates.

Why Korea?

Korean clinics use premium IPL devices like M22 or Stellar M22, known for their efficacy and safety. With a focus on skin tone uniformity, they combine IPL with antioxidants, brightening boosters, or toning lasers for improved results.
