Treatment Overview
BB Glow MTS (Microneedle Therapy System) Treatment is a semi-permanent skin rejuvenation procedure that combines microneedling with a tinted serum containing peptides, vitamins, and skin-safe pigments. The microneedling device creates microchannels in the skin, allowing the tinted ampoule to penetrate the dermal layers. This provides instant brightening, evening out skin tone while stimulating collagen production for long-term improvement.
In Korea, BB Glow is highly sought-after for its ability to give the appearance of natural makeup—like a light BB cream—without daily application. Korean dermatologists are known for using advanced microneedling techniques and safe, high-quality serums to achieve a radiant, glass-skin effect with minimal downtime.
