Treatment Overview
MTS Microneedling Therapy (Microneedle Therapy System, also called Collagen Induction Therapy) is a Korean dermatology treatment that uses a device with fine needles to create controlled micro-injuries in the skin. These micro-channels stimulate the body’s natural healing response, boosting collagen and elastin production while enhancing the absorption of active serums such as growth factors, vitamins, PN boosters, or exosomes.
For dull skin, MTS Microneedling Therapy works by promoting skin renewal, improving texture, and infusing brightening nutrients deep into the dermis. It is especially effective for patients with rough texture, enlarged pores, post-acne marks, or loss of glow who want smoother, more radiant skin.

- MTS Microneedling: Best for texture + collagen + serum infusion.
