Treatment Overview
The Collagen Boost Carbon Laser Facial in Korea is a non-invasive MedSpa treatment designed to stimulate collagen production, enhance skin elasticity, and provide a smoother, youthful complexion. Combining a carbon-based lotion with Q-switched ND:YAG laser technology, this procedure penetrates deep into the pores to cleanse impurities, promote collagen synthesis, and rejuvenate the skin.
Korean dermatology clinics have refined this treatment to include personalized assessment, multi-step laser therapy, and optional serum infusions, making it ideal for patients who want to reduce fine lines, improve skin texture, and achieve the radiant glow associated with glass skin. The Collagen Boost Carbon Laser Facial has gained popularity among both local and international patients due to Korea’s expertise in advanced skin rejuvenation.

Korean clinics minimize these risks through customized laser settings, pre-treatment assessment, and proper post-care guidance.
Techniques Used in Korea
Korean dermatologists combine state-of-the-art laser technology with advanced skin therapies to maximize collagen stimulation:
- Carbon Lotion Application – Carbon particles penetrate pores and bind impurities, preparing skin for laser treatment
- Q-Switched ND:YAG Laser – Activates carbon particles, exfoliates dead skin, kills bacteria, and stimulates collagen
- Collagen Enhancement Therapy – Laser energy triggers fibroblast activity for natural collagen synthesis
- Optional Add-ons – PRP, hyaluronic acid, or peptide serums can be applied for added rejuvenation
- LED Light Therapy – Reduces inflammation, promotes healing, and enhances overall radiance
This multi-step approach ensures deep skin rejuvenation and visible improvements in firmness, elasticity, and texture.
