Treatment Overview
Firming Glow MTS (Microneedle Therapy System) is an advanced skin rejuvenation procedure that combines microneedling with the infusion of customized serums designed to tighten, brighten, and revitalize the skin. The micro-injuries created by microneedling stimulate collagen and elastin production, while nutrient-rich boosters—such as hyaluronic acid, peptides, growth factors, and brightening agents—are delivered deep into the dermis for maximum absorption.
In Korea, Firming Glow MTS is a popular option for patients seeking both anti-aging benefits and a luminous, radiant complexion. Korean dermatologists are skilled at tailoring serum blends and microneedling depth to each patient’s needs, ensuring safe, natural-looking, and long-lasting results.
