Skin Botox in Jamsil, Seoul: Pores and Glow
The short answer

Unlike line botox, it targets skin quality, not the deeper muscles, so the face keeps its normal expression. A touch-up is available within one month if needed.

What is skin botox?
The term describes botox diluted and injected superficially in many tiny points across an area such as the cheeks or forehead. The idea is to calm the tiny muscles and oil glands near the surface, so skin often looks smoother and less shiny. It is a different technique from treating a frown line.
Who might consider it?
- People bothered by visible pores or an oily shine
- Skin that looks dull or rough in texture
- Those who want a lighter treatment than a full device or injectable program
For acne scars and deeper pore structure, pores and scars laser may be the better route.
How does it compare with boosters?
Skin botox targets pores and oil, while skin boosters work on hydration, firmness and texture. The doctor can combine them. The clinic also pairs boosters with Secret RF in some plans; see Secret RF with boosters.
