AestheFill is a brand of dermal filler with long-lasting results of up to 2 years. It's a highly recommended procedure for patients who want natural and gradual results instead of something instant like hyaluronic acid fillers. AestheFill consists of Microparticle Poly-Lactic-Acid , which is biodegradable substance approved by the US FDA and also used in materials for suture threads. Here are some of the main features of AestheFill: ▶ Patented Technology AestheFill uses internationally patented materials and technology. ▶ Natural Effects This biocompatible filler naturally stimulates collagen production deep within the skin. ▶ Certified Safety The substance used in AestheFill has been approved by the US FDA, and degrades naturally within the body. ▶ Convenient Procedure The injection procedure only takes about 10 minutes, not included topical anesthesia.

So Renewme Skin Clinic Seocho branch hired a new aesthetician a couple of months ago, whom is still in the process of learning different skin procedures and facials to practice on patients. Of all the skin care services offered at our clinic, comedone extraction is said to be the most difficult, especially so because in order to practice, you need actual acne patients willing to be dealt with someone who has no experience in extraction. Therefore, most of our regular acne patients aren't an option, and these new aestheticians are left looking for family or other staff members with acne problems, for practice. That's why today, I was requested to be a guinea pig (perhaps that's too harsh of a term to use here, but that's what it felt like) for this aesthetician. She was a very sweet young lady who thanked me multiple times for agreeing to receive the extraction session, when in fact I was the thankful one; I knew she would be supervised by a senior, and well, I was in

South Korea is pretty famous for plastic surgery, we all know by now. Particularly in the Gangnam district, where whole streets are lined with plastic surgery clinics, it is not uncommon to see ladies walking around with their faces heavily bandaged, covering up their bruises with masks and sunglasses. No, they didn't just survive a massive attack from local gang members or anything like that, although that makes a much cooler story; they're just recovering from surgical procedures that help to enhance and beautify their faces. When you look at these people walking around, living in discomfort for a few weeks before they can emerge from their cocoons (in their case, bandages) as a butterfly, you might wonder whether it always has to be that painful. Why does becoming prettier (which obviously is a very relative term) require people to stay secluded and avoid contact with other people until their faces become presentable again? With all these advances in technology, couldn'

Guess what? I've got a great promotion for you this summer at Renewme Skin Clinic: a non-invasive treatment with little downtime, that can destroy fat cells specifically in the abdomen and love handle areas! This is the area we all care a LOT about during the summertime, especially when you don't have that much time to prepare your body for rocking that new bikini. I've written about cryolipolysis  (coolsculpting) and HPL before, and now is your chance to try both treatments at once, at a humongous discount! CRYOLIPOLYSIS 4 PADS (Abdomen, Love Handles)  + HPL Fat Dissolving Injection (1 Area) 1,850,000 KRW → 990,000 KRW !!! More than 40% OFF What is Cryolipolysis? Fat cells naturally disintegrate when exposed to cold. Using this principle, cryolipolysis can remove selected fat cells in targeted areas. Destroyed fat cells are then discharged from the body through urine or sweat. Advantages - Selectively freezes fat cells only, at -9ºC - Safe and qu

"Bacne", or back acne, can make you extremely self-conscious; especially nowadays, when the weather is getting warmer and it's time to start planning trips to the beach. Even if you're not going swimming, any item of clothing that exposes the slightest bit of your back is instantly turned down, which is really sad because it means you're missing out on a bunch of awesome outfits. Even more annoying is that apparently, back acne really has nothing to do with hygiene - showering everyday and diligently applying body scrub seem not to have the slightest effect at all. So what can we do? Acne (wherever it may be on the body or face) can be caused by one or a combination of many, many factors. Luckily, they can be treated by medication or other treatment programs at a dermatology clinic, so don't be too discouraged or lose faith! One particular treatment that is quite popular in Korea for back acne (and for the face too) is called Aladdin Peel, which is a pretty

Dermal filler, an injection procedure that restores lack of volume or shape in the face, has become so popular and common especially in Korea, that by now it's considered a casual and easy treatment, much like, say, getting eyebrows waxed or something. In reality; while fillers can indeed be quite simple and fast, with little downtime and long lasting effects, it can still come with complications that everyone should fully understand before deciding on treatment for themselves. To list a few possible side effects, fillers can cause allergic reactions if the substance is something that is not already present in your body - fillers made of hyaluronic acid or autologous fat tend to be safer since they're substances we already contain. Other side effects may include redness, swelling and/or bruising , most of which will subside within a few days/weeks. In some cases, the filler will cause one, or a series of small bumps near the procedure area . This can either naturally go

July in Korea is generally very humid. Once the rainy season passes, it becomes blazing hot and dry, but until then we have to suffer through the humidity that makes everyone twice as sweaty and cranky. These days, we've experienced super high temperatures as well, averaging about 32-33, sometimes going up to even 37 degrees Celsius. Some countries might scoff and say that's nothing, but for a Korean who's never lived in any other climate, this is pretty intense. Therefore, it comes as no surprise that many Koreans survive the summer on cold noodles and bingsu (shaved ice dessert). I myself went out with some colleagues yesterday for some noodles to cool down, at Gusku Myeongga, a place very close to Nambu Bus Terminal station and a minute's walk from our Seocho branch. Directions are easy-peasy: walk straight from exit 6 and turn right as soon as you pass the BC Card headquarters. The restaurant may not be easily noticeable but it's there: Ugh, unfortunately

Whether you are aware of it or not, a person's eyebrows determine a large part of his/her first impression. They're the closest things to your eyes (in terms of placement on the face), and move accordingly to your facial expressions. Sometimes they can give off the wrong message just by how they're shaped, regardless of your actual intentions or emotions. For these and a number of other factors, you might be surprised to know how often people can be stressed out due to their eyebrows, or lack of. Generally, women are able to fix their eyebrows with the help of makeup, and can shape it to their desires more easily. Some go the extra stretch and opt for a semi-permanent tattoo to save all the hassle. Different ladies prefer different styles of eyebrows, but I think it's safe to say that everyone likes clear and well-defined brows. Eyebrows are important for men as well: strong and thick eyebrows can give off an assuring, trustworthy impression. Here are some cases in

Cervical cancer is one of the most common types of cancer found in women. Since this is directly related to fertility and womanhood, you should unquestionably make sure to prevent what you can well in advance and get regular checkups regardless of your good health. Luckily, preventative measures against cervical cancer are available in the form of vaccination, which you can find from your local gynecologist or even skin clinics such as Renewme. What causes cervical cancer? Cervical cancer is caused by the sexually transmitted infection Human Papilloma Virus (HPV). The cervix, located in the lower part of the uterus (womb), is the passageway connecting your uterus to the vagina. This is also the passageway from which women menstruate and give birth. Cancer in this area forms when old cells do not naturally die off as they should, and instead build up into a tumor. These cells can also eventually spread across other parts of the body and build new tumors. When is the best time fo

Asides from the famous and well-known brands such as Restylane or Juvederm, there are loads (perhaps even hundreds) of dermal filler brands that have not made the spotlight in the field of aesthetics and cosmetic dermatology. Companies are constantly researching and experimenting with different types of filler, coming up with ways to help you achieve a more youthful appearance, preferably with the most natural and long-lasting results. It shouldn't come to you as a surprise that not all dermal fillers are the same; you'll find yourself having to choose between different solutions, substances, and concentrations that will act on the skin in a variety of ways. Specifically which brand or type would suit you and address your concerns best, should be decided after a consultation with your dermatologist or physician. But of course, most patients would naturally gravitate towards well-known brands that are approved and certified for their effects and safety. One such brand is Scu

Hair loss treatment is a lot more than just a prescription for medication, or drastic measures like hair transplantation. At Renewme Skin Clinic, we provide a number of different treatments that, with regular sessions and perseverance, can gradually restore hair and prevent further loss. Take a look at scalp treatments offered at our clinic, done in a total of 11 steps. You don't actually have to go through all eleven; it's possible to select just the ones that suit your scalp condition and budget. STEP 1: Diagnosis The doctor will closely examine your scalp and determine its condition. STEP 2: Consultation What other factors might contribute to hair loss and deteriorated scalp condition? Discussing your lifestyle, environment, medical history etc. allows the doctor to have a more comprehensive understanding about the best treatment plan for you. STEP 3: Scalp Scaling Just like the facial version for acne treatment, scaling is an exfoliating treatment that

If you've been to any or many clinics, whether it be for medical or cosmetic purposes, you will know that the quality of services is a huge factor in determining whether your experience is a satisfactory one. You want to feel as comfortable as possible, and that your needs and concerns are placed on top priority, because that in part is what you are paying for. Personally, I would say I am more on the understanding side when it comes to bit of brusqueness or clipped answers, especially in Korea, where efficiency is everything. However so, that still does not mean this type of attitude should be accepted; a simple gesture of kindness such as a warm smile, or a slight change in tone can make all the difference in how the patient or customer perceives the service of a clinic. That being said, our clinic is no exception in placing high importance on customer service. Our Hwagok branch has invited a lecturer once a week for a month to provide training sessions on customer service.

Ever looked down at your belly, or thighs, and thought, "if only I could carve this fat out with a knife or something and not feel pain or leave any scars"? I hope I'm not the only one. And now that summer has approached us already, at such an alarmingly fast rate, it's time again to start worrying about crash diets and how to remove those rolls to prepare for bikini season. If exercise isn't helping, and if you're vehemently against any aspects of surgery/liposuction, and if you don't mind spending some for such a treatment, I would definitely recommend that you look into cryolipolysis, which is a non-invasive procedure that selectively freezes and destroys fat cells. You can read more about the procedure by reading our previous post , but today I thought I might share with you some photos from a testimonial we received earlier. You can read the full testimonial by clicking here . This is the gown and skirt (skort?) provided by the clinic; you ne
