IPL or Laser Toning — which is better for pigmentation?

Image
  Pigmentation may look similar, but it differs in depth and origin — which is why choosing the right treatment is important. IPL is most effective for surface-level pigmentation such as freckles, light spots, and uneven skin tone. It also helps brighten the overall complexion, making the skin look clearer and more refreshed. A course of approximately 5 sessions every 3–4 weeks is usually recommended. Laser toning targets deeper pigmentation, including melasma and long-standing dark spots. It works with low energy and repeated passes to gradually break down pigment while minimizing stress on the skin. For visible results, a minimum of 10 sessions at 1–2 week intervals is typically needed. Additional sessions may be required depending on the depth of pigmentation. Since these treatments work on different layers of the skin, combining them often provides more effective and balanced results. IPL addresses pigmentation on the surface, while laser toning works deeper within th...

Can under-eye bags be treated without visible scars?

Image
If you notice puffiness under the eyes along with a hollow area below, this is a common age-related change, especially after your 40s. As skin elasticity decreases, fat shifts forward and the tear trough deepens, making the face look tired and older. One of the main concerns before surgery is scarring.  However, lower eyelid correction is performed through an incision inside the eyelid (via the conjunctiva), so there are no visible scars on the skin. This makes the procedure less invasive than many expect.  The procedure is not just about removing protruding fat. The fat is repositioned to fill the hollow area under the eyes, addressing both puffiness and volume loss for a more natural result.  Recovery is relatively quick:  • swelling usually subsides within a week  • results look natural after about 2 weeks  • no stitch removal is required After the procedure:  • use prescribed eye drops 4 times a day for 2 weeks  • avoid sauna and alcohol for 2...

Correction of the eye shape with a brow lift — a clear and natural result.

Image
A sub-brow lift is a procedure in which excess skin is carefully removed and tightened just beneath the eyebrow. Since the double eyelid line is not affected, there are almost no visible signs of surgery, and recovery is relatively quick. This procedure is especially recommended for those experiencing drooping eyelids with age, which can make the eyes look tired or even reduce the field of vision. It is also suitable for those who feel discomfort from eyelashes touching the eyes due to sagging skin, or when the distance between the eyebrows and eyes appears too large, creating a heavy expression. It is a great option for those who want to maintain their existing eyelid line while naturally correcting sagging. After the procedure, the distance between the eyebrows and eyes is reduced, resulting in a more defined, refreshed, and youthful appearance. Sutures are removed on the 5th day, and the appearance becomes natural within 1–2 weeks. Swelling usually subsides within a week, and ...

Why is proper treatment of deep frown lines important?

Image
Botox is effective for correcting fine lines that appear with facial expressions. However, patients often ask whether it’s possible to eliminate frown lines using only Botox when they are visible even at rest. Can deep frown lines be treated with Botox alone? Mild expression lines respond well to Botox. But if the lines are visible even without facial movement, a combined approach is more effective. Dermal fillers help fill in the crease, while Botox reduces muscle activity — together, they provide a more noticeable and longer-lasting result. The effects of Botox typically last 3 to 6 months. During the first 3–4 days after the procedure, you may feel slight heaviness or stiffness, but this quickly subsides, and facial expressions become natural.

Can wrinkles above and below the eyes be improved at the same time?

Image
Yes, it is possible. A combination of upper and lower blepharoplasty allows for comprehensive rejuvenation of the eye area.  During the procedure, wrinkles on the upper eyelid are carefully removed, while the lower eyelid area is smoothed and underlying fat is repositioned. This helps create a more even, natural-looking under-eye contour.  The initial recovery period is approximately 5 days, with mild swelling that may last up to one week. Since both areas are treated at the same time, a temporary feeling of tightness may occur, but it gradually subsides as healing progresses.  Eye wrinkle surgery is one of the signature procedures at SHE’S Plastic Surgery, attracting patients not only from Korea but also from abroad. For international patients, we offer a well-organized medical tourism program.  During recovery, you can stay near the clinic and combine treatment with light shopping and sightseeing. Our professional interpreters support you at every step — from pre-a...

Can alar reduction and a nose filler be done at the same time?

Image
If you are concerned about wide or flared nostrils and would also like to slightly enhance your nose bridge with filler, you may wonder if these procedures can be combined. Yes, alar reduction and a nose filler can be performed together. Alar reduction is a surgical procedure that reduces the width of the nostrils by removing a small amount of tissue at the base of the nose and then suturing the area. It is suitable for patients with wide nostrils and requires careful planning to maintain facial harmony. A nose filler is a non-surgical treatment that helps enhance the height and contour of the nose bridge. The results are visible immediately, and there is little to no downtime. At SHE’S Plastic Surgery Clinic, only verified and high-quality fillers are used, with results and duration varying depending on the product. ✨ Combining these procedures can create a more natural and balanced nose shape. A personalized approach is essential to achieve the best results. We recommend a...
