Summer, when the weather is hot and the atmosphere is humid, is a season where you need to pay attention to not only body care but also skin care. In particular, moisture management in the skin is a basic element to keep the skin healthy. This is because when the skin becomes dry due to lack of moisture, skin elasticity decreases and wrinkles easily form.
Additionally, during the hot summer months, sebum secretion increases and pores tend to become enlarged. Excessive sweat and sebum secretion can cause skin problems and blackheads. Therefore, in summer, when your skin tends to be sensitive, you need to take regular care to prevent waste from accumulating in your pores.
However, if waste such as keratin or sebum has already accumulated in the pores, home care alone may have limitations in improvement. If you want to pay attention to skin care in summer, seeking help from medical procedures can also be a method.
Among various procedures, cryocell is a cryoelectrophoresis method that penetrates vitamins or drugs using the power of electric current and simultaneously blocks the absorption of vitamins or drugs into blood vessels by cooling the skin surface to constrict capillaries. It helps the drug work effectively by being delivered to the skin cells at the desired depth without leaking through the capillaries. Cryocell is known to help with exfoliation, hydration, nutrition, and whitening.
Hydrogen therapy can help protect skin health by using mineral reduced water containing active hydrogen and minerals that can strongly remove free radicals, the main cause of aging and disease. It is known to be an effective treatment for allergies, extremely dry skin, ultra-sensitive skin, and atopy, and can also help strengthen the immune system. Continuous hydrogen therapy can also calm the skin, moisturize the skin, purify the complexion, promote metabolism, and increase immunity.
However, there are things to be careful about when performing skin care procedures in summer such as cooling and soothing. In response to this, JAYJUN Dermatology Director Kang Minji advised, "Because human skin has different characteristics for each individual, if the procedure is performed without taking this into account, it may only improve temporarily or cause skin problems again. The way to increase satisfaction is to perform an appropriate customized procedure that takes into account individual skin elasticity, thickness, sensitivity, etc. after sufficient consultation with medical staff with abundant clinical experience."
