Skin booster glossary for people new to Korean derm menus

Derm clinic menus are confusing even if you read Korean, so quick glossary of things you'll see:

- Rejuran — polynucleotides (salmon DNA). "Healing" booster, people use it for texture/pores. Hurts.
- Juvelook — PDLLA + hyaluronic acid, collagen stimulation.
- Skin botox / micro botox — tiny diluted botox injected shallowly for pores/oil, not wrinkles.
- Profhilo — HA "bio-remodelling".
- Exosomes — usually applied after microneedling/laser. Evidence is still thin, be skeptical.
- Ulthera / Shurink / Inmode — tightening devices (ultrasound / ultrasound / RF).

Not medical advice, just so you can read the menu. What else should I add?

    Potenza! Microneedling RF, they upsell it with different tips everywhere

    This is so helpful. Add LDM (the "water drop" ultrasound facial thing)

      Good ones. Will do a part 2 with lasers (pico, Clarity, etc)
