Microneedling in Myeongdong, Seoul

Collagen induction therapy that uses ultra-fine needles to improve texture, acne scars, pores and fine lines, with RF and serum-infusion options.

What is microneedling? Microneedling, also called collagen induction therapy, is a minimally invasive treatment that uses ultra-fine needles to create tiny, controlled micro-injuries in the skin. As the skin repairs itself it produces new collagen and elastin, which can improve texture, acne scars, enlarged pores and fine lines. Most people see clear improvement after 3 to 5 sessions. At Kleam Clinic Myeongdong, MTS microneedling with a skin booster and Potenza RF microneedling start from ₩199,000.

How microneedling works
How it works

How microneedling works

Fine needles create thousands of microscopic channels in the skin. This triggers the skin's natural healing response, stimulating fresh collagen and elastin to restore firmness and smooth irregular texture. The channels also let serums and skin boosters penetrate deeper, which is why microneedling is often combined with products such as NCTF or exosome solutions.

At Kleam we tailor the technique to your concern. RF (radiofrequency) microneedling such as Potenza adds heat energy through the needles for deeper collagen remodelling, useful for pores, acne and scars. PRP microneedling uses your own platelet-rich plasma to support healing and renewal, and hydrating microneedling infuses serums like hyaluronic acid for moisture and glow.
