The clinic was very professional from start to finish. Doctor Jung was excellent and gentle with the treatment. I felt well looked after and everyone was outstanding. Happy with my service!

"No downtime" bundles three different questions together: whether anything is visible on your face, whether your week has to change, and whether you photograph well afterwards. This page separates them, names the four low-downtime lines Dear Clinic actually runs, and says which treatments here do not belong in that group at all.
The phrase travels badly because it is marketing language borrowed from surgery, where downtime meant weeks of recovery. Applied to an injection or a laser pass, it flattens three quite different questions into one reassuring word, and patients who book on the strength of it are sometimes surprised by something entirely ordinary: a small bruise, a flushed face for an evening, a few raised points where a needle went in.
None of that is a complication. All of it is expected. The problem is only ever that nobody separated the questions in advance, which is why this page separates them before it names a single treatment or a single figure.
One more caveat belongs at the top. Individual results vary, and so does individual recovery. Two people given the same line on the same afternoon can leave looking quite different, and nothing on a website predicts which of the two you will be.
Ask all three at your consultation. They produce different answers for the same treatment, and the one that matters to you is rarely the one a brochure answers.
This is the question about redness, swelling, bruising and needle points. Energy work on the surface tends to leave a flush. Injected work leaves entry points and can bruise, and a bruise on thin skin under the eye behaves differently from one in the cheek. Concealer covers a good deal of it, which is why the answer also depends on whether you wear any.
Separate from appearance, and often stricter. Aftercare typically asks you to be gentle with the skin for a day or two and to hold off on scrubs, exfoliating acids, alcohol and smoking for around a week after an injected booster. Heat, saunas, hard exercise and sun exposure come up too. Your own instructions are written for the treatment you actually had and given to you before you leave.
The strictest of the three and the one most often left unasked. A face that looks unremarkable in a mirror can still catch a flash badly, because swelling and flush read differently under hard light. Where a date matters, name the date at the consultation and let it shape the plan. This is the single most useful sentence a patient can say in the room.
Each is offered at Dear Clinic and each is priced on the published card. What follows is the ordinary aftermath, described without softening it.
| Line | What it is | Ordinary short-term signs | Unit | Listed rate |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Dual laser toning | Low-fluence 1064 nm Nd:YAG toning in a dual-wavelength session with an in-clinic skincare step | A warm flush during and shortly after the passes, sometimes mild dryness. Low fluence is the reason the visible aftermath is small, and also the reason a course is needed instead of a single dramatic pass | 1 session | ₩200,000 (≈ $145) |
| Full-face skin botox | Botulinum toxin placed superficially across the face, Korean tier; aimed at texture and the look of pores | Small raised points where the needle entered, which settle; occasional pinpoint bruising. Nothing structural changes and the effect is temporary | Full face | ₩150,000 (≈ $105) |
| Rejuran Healer | Polydeoxyribonucleotide delivered into the dermis, planned as a series | Visible bumps at the injection points that flatten, with swelling and the possibility of bruising. Of the four, this is the one most likely to be legible immediately afterwards | 2 cc | ₩300,000 (≈ $215) |
| Juvelook | A PDLLA and hyaluronic acid hybrid placed for gradual collagen stimulation | Entry points, swelling and possible bruising, with aftercare asking for gentle cleansing at first and no scrubs, alcohol or smoking for about a week | 1 cc | ₩100,000 (≈ $70) |
Read the unit column alongside the rate. A session, a full face, a cubic centimetre and two cubic centimetres are four different things to buy. Korean won is what you pay and the USD figure beside it is an approximate reference that moves with the exchange rate. Residents and international patients are quoted from the same card with no foreign-patient surcharge, and every rate is on the transparent price list. Whether any of these suits you is settled after your capture, never from a page.
Ablative resurfacing removes tissue on purpose so that new tissue replaces it. Redness, crusting and a period of careful aftercare are the mechanism working, and calling that low downtime would be a lie about how it functions. It is offered here for the cases that need it, and it is planned with your calendar open.
Releasing a bound scar means cutting fibrous tethers beneath the surface, and bruising is the expected consequence of doing that properly. It can be marked. Patients who book subcision before an event without saying so are the clearest argument for naming your date in the consultation room.
Threads are inserted along a planned vector, and swelling, tenderness and a period of restricted movement follow. It sits in a different category from an injected booster, and we do not recommend it to anyone shopping specifically for an invisible recovery.
Three habits separate a plan that survives contact with a calendar from one that does not. The first is honesty about the event itself: a dinner with friends, a photographed wedding and a work presentation under hard lighting have entirely different thresholds, and the director needs to know which one you mean. The second is leaving margin. Booking a booster for the eve of something important removes every option if your skin reacts more than usual.
The third is resisting the urge to add lines late. A plan that grows in the final week is a plan whose aftermath nobody can attribute, and combining several injected routes at once before a date multiplies the chance that one of them is the one you notice. Where the window is genuinely short, the sensible move is fewer lines done well and a review afterwards.
For visitors the same logic applies to a flight home. Treatment early in a trip leaves room for a look in person before you leave the country, which is the part written correspondence cannot replace. The clinic runs 365 days a year, weekdays 10 to 19 and weekends and holidays 10 to 16, so a short trip usually has a workable slot somewhere in it.
Toning, superficial toxin, polynucleotide and PDLLA boosters, filler, lifting devices and body work are all held on two floors and all published on one card. When a date limits what is sensible, the plan moves to a different category instead of squeezing the wrong treatment into the wrong week.
Three-dimensional capture under five light sources with AI analysis runs before anything is named. It settles the depth a concern lives at, and sometimes the answer is that the low-downtime lines will not reach it. Hearing that before you pay is the entire value of scanning first.
Treatment is director-performed, and technique is a large part of how much shows afterwards on injected work.

I've visited clinic for LDM procedure. I don't speak Korean, so there was an interpreter who assisted me while consulting. The staff was very attentive, they asked me every time before applying products/covering my face during the procedure and it went smoothly. Planning to visit the clini…
All the staff are kind, the doctor is professional. They recommended us the treatment that fit us best and last the longest. A very nice experience overall.
I did a hydrofacial, white/black head removal, and 1 day lasers. Really kind staff and reasonable prices. The only thing I would advise is that your first consultation is with a salesperson and you don’t see the doctor until after you decide what you want and after you pay.
Had a great experience here as a foreigner! The doctors and staff were knowledgeable, friendly, and not pushy. They made recommendations in my consultation and were happy to work within my budget.
Send two daylight photographs, the thing that bothers you and the day you need to look your best on. A written English reply will tell you what fits inside that window.
Recovery time is rarely the endpoint a trial measures, so the literature below is about the materials and the methods themselves: what repeated low-fluence 1064 nm treatment achieves and costs in pigment terms, how botulinum toxin type A products differ pharmaceutically and how consensus practice has developed, and how polynucleotide material performs when the delivery method changes.
Each entry resolves to a DOI in an indexed journal. Whether any of it bears on your own plan is a clinical judgement made in person, after your capture.
