Treatment Overview
Microinjection Brightening in Korea is a non-surgical dermatology procedure aimed at whitening, rejuvenating, and hydrating the skin. The treatment involves precise microinjections of glutathione, vitamins, hyaluronic acid, and other skin-boosting agents directly into the dermal layers. This allows the active ingredients to penetrate deeply and efficiently, targeting pigmentation, dullness, and uneven skin tone for visible brightening effects.
Korean dermatologists are globally recognized for their expertise in microinjection techniques, customized treatment plans, and combination therapies, ensuring safe, effective, and natural-looking results. Microinjection brightening is often combined with intravenous glutathione, vitamin C, alpha-lipoic acid, or collagen drips to enhance whitening, hydration, and anti-aging outcomes.
