Acne, Scars & Skin Texture in Seongsu, Seoul
AccuTone, PTT, Secret RF, MiraJet, CO2 and regeneration injections, matched to your skin
Active acne, the scars it leaves, and rough texture are connected but need different treatments. At Seongsu Melting Clinic in Seongsu, Seoul, Dr. Park Kyung-min separates what is active from what is left behind, then plans treatment in the right order.
Why acne, scars, and texture need different approaches
Active acne comes from oil glands, clogged pores, bacteria, and inflammation. Scars form when inflammation damages the collagen beneath the skin, leaving depressions or uneven surfaces. Enlarged pores and roughness relate to oil, aging, and collagen loss. Treating scars while acne is still active often means new scars keep forming, so control usually comes first.
How we approach this at Seongsu Melting Clinic
For active acne
- AccuTone 1450nm: targets the oil glands behind acne, without oral medication.

For scars and texture
- Secret RF microneedling: fractional RF to remodel collagen for scars and pores.

- CO2 fractional: resurfacing for deeper scars, with more downtime.

A good fit if…
- You have recurring breakouts, marks, or rolling and boxcar scars you want to soften.
- You can commit to a series of sessions and consistent sun protection.
Consider something else if…
- You have severe, cystic, or hormonal acne that may need medical treatment alongside procedures.
- You tend to form keloids, or are pregnant; tell us so we can adjust.
What to expect
Dr. Park examines your skin, explains the plan and pricing, and sets realistic goals. Acne care often involves regular sessions. Scar treatment is spaced out to allow healing, and improvement is gradual; scars usually become softer and less visible rather than disappearing. Downtime ranges from minimal to several days after CO2 fractional. Aftercare centers on gentle skincare and sun protection.
Aftercare
- Use a gentle cleanser and non-comedogenic moisturizer.
- Wear sunscreen daily to limit post-acne marks.
- Do not pick or squeeze spots, especially after treatment.
- Avoid saunas and heavy makeup for the period advised after RF or CO2 treatments.
A note from Dr. Park
Dr. Park believes in explaining before treating, especially for scars, where expectations matter. He keeps research and practice connected when choosing among devices and uses genuine products at the exact dose.
Frequently asked questions
Can acne scars be completely removed?
Usually not. Most scars can be improved and softened over several sessions.
Should I treat acne or scars first?
Usually active acne first, so new scars do not keep forming.
Is AccuTone suitable if I cannot take acne medication?
It is designed to work without oral medication. Dr. Park will discuss whether it suits you.
