Aqua Shine Injection in Seoul, Korea

Aqua Shine Injection in Seoul, Korea

  What Is Aqua Shine Injection?

Aqua Shine Injection (also known as “skin booster injection” or “water-glow injection”) is a minimally invasive treatment where a specialized cocktail—typically hyaluronic acid plus peptides, vitamins, amino acids, antioxidants, and skin-revitalising nutrients—is micro-injected into the dermis. The goal: deep hydration, improved texture, enhanced radiance, and a “glass-skin” glow effect, without major volume change like fillers.

Why Choose Seoul for Aqua Shine Injections?

        Seoul is a global hub for advanced skin-booster treatments. Advantages:

  • Clinics offering tailored booster formulas optimised for Asian/melanin-rich skin.
  • Injector-expertise in micro-injection techniques for minimal downtime.
  • Strong “glow-up” culture and high-end skincare ecosystem supporting results.
  • Many treatments performed in short sessions, suitable for busy travellers or professionals.

What Skin Concerns Does It Address?

        Aqua Shine is particularly suited for:

  • Dehydrated or dull-looking skin
  • Fine lines (especially those caused by dehydration)
  • Loss of elasticity and early texture irregularity
  • Rough skin surface, enlarged pores or mild acne scars
  • Skin that looks tired, stressed, or lacks radiance
  • Clients seeking a refreshed complexion without structural fillers

How the Procedure Works

  1. Consultation & Skin Assessment – determine skin condition, identify cocktail formulation needed.
  2. Numbing & Preparation – apply topical numbing cream if required; cleanse the skin.
  3. Micro-Injection of Booster – fine needles or injector gun deliver the cocktail into multiple spots across face (and optional neck or décolletage).
  4. After-care Application – calming mask or serum may be applied, and post-treatment instructions given.
    Typical session time:         30–45 minutes.

Benefits of Aqua Shine Injection

  • Immediate improved hydration and plumper feel
  • Brighter complexion and more even tone
  • Smoother skin texture and refined pores
  • Enhanced elasticity and “bounce” over time
  • Minimal downtime; returning to normal activity quickly
  • Subtle, natural result — not altering face shape

Downtime & Recovery

  • Mild redness, tiny injection marks, or slight swelling may occur for 24-48 hours.
  • Makeup can typically be applied the next day.
  • Avoid heavy workouts, saunas, intense heat or alcohol for first 24-48 hrs if recommended.
  • Best visible glow often appears within 3-7 days.

How Many Sessions Are Recommended?

  • Many people achieve noticeable improvement after 1 session.
  • For optimal and longer-lasting results: 3 sessions, spaced 2–4 weeks apart.
  • Maintenance: 1 session every 3-6 months keeps skin in peak condition.

Typical Cost in Seoul

        Costs depend on formula strength, site (face vs neck vs hands), and number of sessions:

  • Single session: approx ₩200,000 – ₩300,000.
  • Premium versions (with advanced peptides, PDRN, boosters): approx ₩300,000 – ₩400,000+.
  • Package of 3 sessions: often discounted to ~₩900,000 or more.

Who Is a Good Candidate?

  • Individuals seeking smoother, more radiant skin without heavy downtime.
  • Those with dehydrated, dull, or early-signs skin rather than advanced sagging or deep wrinkles.
  • Clients comfortable with micro-injections and willing to commit to a short series.
  • People looking for a “refresh” or pre-event glow rather than dramatic structural change.

Not ideal if you have: uncontrolled skin infection, very active acne flare, recent strong peeling or laser without recovery, or unrealistic expectation of filler-type volume increase.

Safety & Considerations

  • Treatment is generally safe, but still requires experienced injector and high-quality booster product.
  • Mild swelling or bruising is possible at injection sites.
  • Sun protection and gentle skincare post-treatment are essential to maintain result.
  • Those who are pregnant or breastfeeding should consult a doctor about suitability.
  • Prior heavy exfoliation or strong laser treatments may need to wait before doing skin booster injections.

Aftercare Tips for Best Results

  • Use a gentle hydrator and barrier-repair moisturizer post-treatment.
  • Apply broad-spectrum sunscreen (SPF 50+) daily and reapply outdoors.
  • Avoid harsh exfoliants, acids or retinoids for 2–3 days unless advised.
  • Stay hydrated, get good sleep, and avoid heavy alcohol for 24 hours.
  • Consider maintenance sessions as advised to sustain glow and skin quality.
