Renewme Skin Clinic

This past Saturday, Renewme Skin Clinic doctors and staff from all branches gathered for a get-together dinner at Song Won, a delicious Korean barbecue restaurant right down the street from Hotel Grand Ambassador and nearby our Dongdaemun branch. As you may know, Renewme Skin Clinic has six branches so far and it is not easy for everyone to gather and get to know each other. What better way to do so over a dinner party? :) Song Won has a beautiful traditional ambience, with a patio for guests to dine outside when the weather is nice. Luckily, the day was perfect for us to enjoy our outdoor dinner amidst fresh air and good vibes. Renewme Skin Clinic dermatologists Here are the most important photos of the day: FOOD! Particularly, the side dishes and meat, which is obviously the highlight of the whole meal. Barbecue was prepared in both beef and pork, both of which were scrumptious. Beef because it was soft and moist and perfectly cooked (and much more pricier), por...

The month of May is rapidly coming to an end, and in Seoul the temperatures have already hit the low thirties. This also means that sleeves and pants are getting shorter and shorter... which might make us start panicking because we haven't shed the body fat accumulated over the winter.  Have no fear, friends: mini-liposuction at Renewme Skin Clinic extracts fat directly  from targeted areas, without general anesthesia or sedation! This means you can see results fast - within about a week or two to be exact. What's even better, the solution injected to dissolve the fat will keep working for about a month, which means you may experience size reduction over the next 3-4 weeks as well! Here's a patient who saw 3-4 centimeters size reduction in her thighs: This procedure can apply to areas such as the abdomen, arms, love handles, and buttocks.

A porcelain white face is a standard of beauty in a lot of Asian countries, and whitening treatments are one of the most frequently asked programs at our clinic, no exception. Many clinics and cosmetic companies are constantly researching and developing products/treatments that can make the skin brighter and lighter. Changing the skin tone, of course, is not an easy task and there is no permanent one-day treatment for it. However, today we'd like to introduce the Velvet Mask  - a facial mask that can brighten your face instantly  and we have photos to show!

What's your opinion on laugh lines? Personally, I'm not too against them, as I find that they can give a person character and grace - the sophisticated type that can only come with age and experience. And for crow's feet especially, I feel like they can make a smile look much more pronounced and brighter. However, they say too much is as bad as too little, and deep or severe wrinkles might make you look much older than your actual age. When dynamic wrinkles (wrinkles that are caused by muscle movement - horizontal forehead lines, frown lines, crow's feet) first start to form, they can be prevented early with botox injections. However, the longer you leave them, the deeper they get, and eventually the wrinkles can become scar-like and stay permanently even when you're not making any facial expressions - at this point, not even botox can help. The skin starts to lose its moisture and form wrinkles normally starting from your thirties or forties; this is the optima...

A clear, plump, slightly curved forehead is one standard of beauty here in Korea. To let you in on a little secret, a nice balance in volume on most areas of the face is actually the key to looking youthful and pretty - I'm talking cheeks, forehead, chin, tear trough, and such. Laugh lines (nasolabial fold) aren't the only places to fill in, people. Here's another area you might have been neglecting, but which can bring surprisingly satisfactory results... the forehead ! First of all, a sunken forehead with lots of wrinkles can make you instantly look more aged and tired. It's also widely known in Korea, where physiognomy is not ridiculed like it may be in other parts of the world, that a good forehead can bring fortune and a good life ahead. Our facial features display the lives we live, which is why maintaining a good healthy appearance is important in leading a prosperous life (not necessarily monetarily). So what are the options to a voluminous and healthy l...

First impressions can play an important role when you've got to meet new people; whether it be for your job, an interview, a blind date, and so on. And although everyone is a unicorn, with different traits and facial features, you probably have that one little part that bothers the heck out of you like a piece of lettuce stuck deep between your teeth, and makes you really unconscious when you're talking to people. One such thing is a gummy smile , which is a smile that exposes too much gum. Of course, there is no standard answer as to exactly how much exposure is considered too much, but everybody has different opinions and it's all about how you  feel about it, right? There are many patients that stress out about this particular feature, and consider it as aesthetically displeasing although it doesn't exactly cause any actual discomfort in everyday life. The discomforts are more social and emotional than anything - you might find yourself consciously covering your mo...

AquaPeel + Excel V Laser + Fractional Laser + INNOfill Acnes were always my biggest concern since I was a teenager. ​I tend to touch and press my acne a lot - that's why I have a lot of acne scars, and even some became deep holes. I tried some treatments in China before but I had never seen any effect from it. So I decided to make an appointment with Renewme Skin Clinic in Seoul through their Chinese interpreter. They helped me with online consultations before I arrived in Seoul, and they were also present to assist me on D-Day! The clinic staffs and my Chinese interpreter welcomed me to their Jamsil branch. I filled out the registration form and talked about my concern before meeting the dermatologist for consultation. She is Dermatology Specialist Ha Ji Hyun from the Jamsil branch who was in charge for my treatment that day. I heard about her before from the website 'Soyoung'. She looked even younger and prettier than in the photo - her skin was flawl...

HYDROLIFTING INJECTION has many names: DermaShine, skin booster injection, water shine injection, etc... but in the end it all comes down to one thing: hydration, or moisturizing. The injection solution is comprised of hyaluronic acid, a molecule that we all have in our bodies but decreases as we age. One characteristic HA acid is famous for is its ability to contain several times its own capacity in water, or moisture. This is why you'll see a lot of creams or lotions that boast to include HA acid. Topical application is all good, of course; however, the BEST way to retain HA acid is to inject it directly into the skin and keep it there! While this is a highly popular treatment in Korea, there is one little problem that you might face especially if you are a foreigner and only plan to visit for a short period of time - the results only last a couple of months. That is why at Renewme Skin Clinic, we've come up with a treatment package that does everything possible to ...
