Acne Treatment in Myeongdong, Seoul
Personalised acne care that targets clogged pores, bacteria and inflammation, combining extraction, peels, laser and medical-grade skincare.
What is acne treatment at Kleam? Acne develops when pores become clogged with oil, dead skin cells and bacteria, causing whiteheads, blackheads, pimples and cystic breakouts. Our doctors build a plan for your skin type and severity, combining options such as extraction, chemical peels, laser acne treatment, Potenza and medical-grade skincare. Most patients see visible improvement within 3 to 5 sessions. At Kleam Clinic Myeongdong, acne care starts from ₩10,000 for an anti-inflammatory injection, and Basic Acne Care from ₩99,000 per session.
How acne treatment works
Acne has several drivers: hormonal changes that trigger excess oil, excess sebum that clogs pores, bacteria and inflammation that cause redness and swelling, and diet and lifestyle factors that can make it worse. Effective treatment addresses more than one of these at the same time, which is why we combine treatments rather than relying on a single step.
Depending on your skin, a plan may include extraction to clear clogged pores, chemical peels to exfoliate dead skin cells, laser acne treatment to target acne-causing bacteria and calm inflammation, Hydrafacial for deep cleansing, anti-inflammatory injections for painful spots and medical-grade skincare to use at home. Once breakouts settle, microneedling or other scar treatments can help smooth any marks left behind.
