Treatment Overview
Obagi Body Skin Renewal Programs in Korea are medical-grade skin rejuvenation protocols designed to improve abdominal skin tone, texture, and elasticity. Based on the internationally renowned Obagi Medical System, these programs use a combination of professional chemical peels, prescription-strength skincare products, and in-clinic treatments to target concerns such as hyperpigmentation, uneven texture, stretch marks, and post-pregnancy dullness on the abdomen.
Korean dermatology clinics have customized Obagi body programs specifically for Asian skin, often combining them with advanced technologies like RF tightening, microneedling, or mesotherapy to enhance results. These treatments restore abdominal skin health, brightness, and firmness with both immediate and long-term benefits.
