Kojic Acid Treatment in Gangnam, Seoul
Brighten Post-Acne Marks and Reduce Pigmentation Naturally
Kojic acid is a natural brightening agent derived from fungi, used in peels and topical treatments to reduce acne-related pigmentation and even out skin tone. This treatment inhibits melanin production and gently lightens dark spots, making it ideal for post-inflammatory hyperpigmentation. Kojic acid treatments offer progressive, non-irritating brightening for acne-prone or sensitive skin.
What Is Kojic Acid Treatment?
Kojic acid is a naturally derived ingredient that reduces pigmentation by inhibiting melanin production. It’s especially effective for treating acne scars, post-inflammatory hyperpigmentation (PIH), and uneven tone. In Korea, kojic acid is used in facials, peels, or as part of customized skin-lightening protocols.
The Treatment Experience in Seoul
1. Skin Analysis & Spot Evaluation
Your clinician will assess the degree of pigmentation and match your skin to the appropriate kojic acid concentration and delivery method. It’s often combined with other ingredients like arbutin, niacinamide, or AHAs.
2. Application & Absorption
Kojic acid is applied as a serum, mask, or peel depending on the treatment plan. Mild tingling may occur, but it's generally well-tolerated by sensitive skin types.
3. Post-Treatment Calming
Clinics follow up with cooling therapy, vitamin serums, and sunscreen application. Patients are advised to avoid direct sunlight for a few days.
Results & Skin Benefits
Dark spots and redness fade over the course of several sessions. Skin becomes more even-toned and visibly brighter, with improved clarity after 2–4 weeks. For best results, multiple treatments and brightening skincare at home are recommended.
Cost in Korea
Treatments range from ₩80,000 to ₩200,000 per session depending on whether it's a simple facial or combined peel. Premium kojic acid protocols may include multi-step layering with antioxidants and hydrating boosters.
