My First Dermatological Treatment: Chin Acne Laser Treatment at JD Clinic in Myeongdong

I had a lot of acne and acne pigmentation on my chin due to recurring acne before and during my period, so I had laser treatment for acne scars.
Whenever I have my period, I get it repeatedly around my chin and mouth.

There's nothing I haven't done so far.
I tried extractions, anti-inflammatory injections, spot gels, patches, and ointments, and even Minocin, an oral acne medication. Ultimately, none of them had much effect on my chin acne.

Because of this repeated trouble, the skin on my chin was already pigmented.
Even when I don't have acne, I still have dark marks that can't be completely covered with makeup.

 

Many people go to dermatologists to treat their acne, but I tried to take care of it myself somehow.

So after much thought, I decided that I couldn't reverse the pigmentation that had already formed, so I decided to get the procedure.

I looked into several dermatologists, and most of them offered basic full-face care programs.
I only have a problem with my chin, so I don't really want to get my whole face treated.

After searching, I found JD Dermatology, a place that only offers laser acne treatment for the chin area.

JD is located in the heart of Myeongdong, so it's not hard to find and it's conveniently located for public transportation.

The director is really kind and explains things well!

When I went to the hospital, there were a lot of people waiting and it felt crowded overall.

After actually receiving counseling, I understood why it was popular.
The director's consultation was very thorough, and he explained my skin condition in an easy-to-understand manner. He didn't pressure me to get any other treatments.

 

I had the ruby ​​laser, which was my first dermatological procedure.

I had never had laser treatment before.

The laser was used for 50 shots on the chin only, not the entire face.

The director said that it is more important to use the right treatment for each skin type, as it is not always effective to use a lot of treatment, and I liked that there was no pressure or excessive treatment.

 

Ruby laser treatment process

After washing my face, I applied anesthetic cream and waited for about 20 minutes before the procedure began.
The treatment was not long, about 10 minutes, and I came out right away after applying a cooling pack.

Of course, there was redness immediately after the procedure, but the irritation was relatively mild, so I was able to wash my face the same day and apply makeup the next day.

 

The Ruby Laser treatment I received was a program of three sessions, one month apart, and I have received it twice so far.

When I first got it, it didn't look much different from before, but after the second time, it looked much cleaner.
The red acne scars have largely disappeared.

I can't wait to receive all 3!

They say that the effects of the ruby ​​laser last for about two years after the procedure.

​It is important to get rid of acne right away,

I think it's more important how often it's repeated.

The more it is repeated, the more severe the pigmentation becomes.

If you feel that cosmetics or patches are not enough, I think that combining them with laser treatment might be a good option.

​From that perspective, I was very satisfied with JD Dermatology's acne ruby ​​laser because it was effective for acne scars and pigmentation.

I'm thinking of coming here and getting treatment if I ever get a big, hard pimple later.

I would like to visit again!
