Treatment Overview
The Curenex Skin Booster Program is a regenerative acne scar and skin revitalization treatment widely offered in Korean dermatology clinics. It combines advanced microneedling or laser-assisted delivery with Curenex—a premium skin booster formulated with PN (polynucleotides), peptides, vitamins, amino acids, hyaluronic acid, and antioxidants.
The treatment enhances collagen remodeling, accelerates healing, and improves skin tone and elasticity. By delivering Curenex into the dermis, the skin barrier is strengthened, scars are softened, and overall skin quality is visibly improved.
This program is designed for patients seeking both acne scar correction and skin rejuvenation, making it one of the most comprehensive booster protocols in Korea.
Purpose & Benefits
- Scar Remodeling: PN and peptides stimulate fibroblasts and collagen production to smooth acne scars.
- Cell Regeneration: Growth-supporting ingredients accelerate skin renewal and repair.
- Pigmentation Control: Antioxidants and vitamins reduce PIH (post-acne dark marks).
- Hydration & Elasticity: Hyaluronic acid restores moisture and plumps atrophic scars.
- Anti-Inflammatory Action: PN and peptides soothe redness and sensitivity.
- Comprehensive Skin Health: Improves skin barrier, tone, and resilience.

The Curenex Skin Booster Program is recommended for:

- Those experiencing dull, dehydrated, or aging skin alongside acne scarring.
- Patients with sensitive or Asian skin types needing safe regenerative therapy.
- Individuals seeking a combined approach of scar correction + anti-aging.
