Vaccine for Cervical Cancer in Seoul, Korea


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 for vaccination?
The vaccine is best recommended for preteens who have not yet had sexual contact. However, females from 9-55 years old can still benefit from the vaccine, whether sexually active or not.

How many injections are required?
The vaccination is required to be given as a series of 3 injections. The second dose is given two months after the first dose, and the third dose is given 6 months after the second.

Is it safe for pregnant women?
Though the vaccine is safe enough for pregnant women, it is not recommended since no actual experiment has yet been conducted.

Are the effects permanent?
Yes. However, the vaccine does not provide 100% prevention, so it’s important to get a routine screening every 1-2 years.

Can men benefit from the vaccine?
Yes. The vaccination can help prevent genital warts.

Mini-Liposuction Blog Post by Dr. Ko Na Young

Here is a blog post written by Hwagok branch head dermatologist Dr. Ko Na Young. The original post, written in Korean, can be read by clicking here . Ever since I was young, I was always concerned about the extra fat in my thighs. My calves were not so bad after I started to work out in my twenties. My thighs, on the other hand, would not budge no matter how hard I exercised. All of the clothes I bought had to fit my thighs more than any other area, and I couldn't wear pencil skirts because they would feel so uncomfortably tight, so I had to stick to flared skirts. Then, about 5-6 years ago, I extracted some fat from my thighs for a fat grafting procedure. Since then I have seen some size reduction that has been maintained until now. I didn't remove a tremendous amount of fat like traditional liposuction (over 2000 cc) - it was just about 150-200 cc from both thighs, but it was still very effective in reducing the size of my thighs. Areas such as the thighs and upper arms...
