Skin Botox (Dermotoxin) in Gangnam Seoul
Skin Botox — also called Dermotoxin, micro Botox, or intradermal botulinum toxin — delivers micro-doses of botulinum toxin A directly into the superficial dermis to shrink pores, reduce sebum production, and create the coveted Korean glass skin texture. RE:BERRY Gangnam offers Skin Botox Dermotoxin from ₩19,000 per area, with the resistance-reducing Skin Boitox formula included in the Signature Hydra Glow Package at ₩1,290,000. Physician-performed injections only, 2 minutes from Gangnam Station Exit 10.
What Is Skin Botox Dermotoxin at RE:BERRY Gangnam?
Skin Botox Dermotoxin at RE:BERRY Gangnam delivers micro-dose botulinum toxin A into the superficial dermis to shrink pores by 30-40%, reduce oil production, and smooth skin texture — from ₩19,000 per area with zero downtime and visible glass skin results within 5-7 days.
Unlike conventional Botox that targets muscles at depth, Skin Botox Dermotoxin is injected at 1-2mm depth into the dermal layer where it acts on sebaceous glands, sweat glands, and superficial muscle fibers. The result is visibly refined pores, reduced facial oiliness, and a smooth matte-to-dewy finish — the glass skin effect that Korean aesthetic medicine is famous for. At RE:BERRY Gangnam, Medical Director Dr. Yoon-Gon Ryu uses a specialized micro-injection technique that distributes 20-50 units across the treatment zone in a grid pattern at 0.5cm intervals. This Skin Botox Dermotoxin protocol targets the erector pili muscles and sebaceous glands without affecting deeper facial muscles — preserving natural expression while delivering surface-level transformation. RE:BERRY’s proprietary resistance-reducing Skin Boitox formula is featured in the Signature Hydra Glow Package (₩1,290,000), which combines Juberry 6cc + Skin Boitox + Re2O 1 syringe + LDM for a comprehensive glass skin protocol. For patients seeking targeted pore refinement alone, standalone Skin Botox Dermotoxin starts from ₩19,000 per area at RE:BERRY Gangnam.

How Skin Botox Dermotoxin Works at RE:BERRY Gangnam
A precise micro-injection Skin Botox Dermotoxin protocol targeting the superficial dermis for pore refinement and oil control.
Skin Analysis & Pore Mapping
Dr. Yoon-Gon Ryu examines your skin under high-magnification dermoscopy, assessing pore density, sebum output levels, and skin texture across T-zone, cheeks, and jawline. A customized Skin Botox Dermotoxin injection map is designed based on your pore distribution pattern. This 10-15 minute consultation determines whether standalone Dermotoxin or the full Hydra Glow Package will achieve your glass skin goals. The analysis is included free with every treatment at RE:BERRY Gangnam.
Topical Numbing & Preparation
A topical anesthetic cream (lidocaine 4%) is applied for 20-30 minutes to ensure comfort during the micro-injection process. The treatment area is then cleansed with antiseptic solution. For patients combining Skin Botox Dermotoxin with Aqua Peel (₩49,000 add-on), the deep pore cleansing is performed during the numbing period to optimize treatment efficiency.
Micro-Dose Intradermal Injection
Using a 32-gauge needle, Dr. Ryu or Dr. Oh injects diluted botulinum toxin A at 1-2mm depth in a grid pattern across the treatment zone. Each injection point receives 0.5-1.0 units, with points spaced 0.5-1.0cm apart. The total dosage for full-face Skin Botox Dermotoxin is typically 20-50 units depending on pore severity and facial size. The injection takes 15-20 minutes for full face coverage. The micro-dose technique ensures the toxin affects only dermal structures — sebaceous glands, erector pili muscles, and eccrine sweat glands — without reaching the deeper muscles responsible for facial expression.
LDM Recovery & Aftercare
Post-injection LDM (Local Dynamic Micro-massage) ultrasound at 3-10 MHz calms inflammation, promotes even distribution of the botulinum toxin, and accelerates the healing response. A soothing recovery mask is applied for 10 minutes. Total appointment time for Skin Botox Dermotoxin at RE:BERRY Gangnam is approximately 60 minutes including numbing. You receive a written aftercare guide in your language — avoid lying flat for 4 hours, no facial massage for 48 hours, and no sauna or intense exercise for 24 hours.
What to Expect from Skin Botox Dermotoxin Treatment
- Visible Pore Shrinkage (30-40%) Micro-dose botulinum toxin reduces the activity of erector pili muscles that keep pores dilated. Clinical studies show 30-40% reduction in pore diameter within 2 weeks of Skin Botox Dermotoxin treatment — visible to the naked eye and measurable under dermoscopy.
- Sebum Production Control Botulinum toxin suppresses acetylcholine release at the neuroglandular junction, reducing sebaceous gland output by 20-30%. Patients notice significantly less facial shine, fewer midday touch-ups, and reduced foundation breakdown — lasting 3-4 months per session.
- Glass Skin Texture Effect The combination of tighter pores, reduced oiliness, and smoother surface micro-topography creates the Korean glass skin finish — luminous, porcelain-smooth skin that reflects light evenly without the greasy appearance of untreated oily skin types.
- Zero Downtime for Travelers No bruising, no swelling, no visible marks. Skin Botox Dermotoxin involves only superficial micro-injections that leave no trace after 1-2 hours. You can apply makeup 4-6 hours post-treatment and resume all activities immediately. Safe to fly same day.
- Natural Expression Preserved Unlike deep Botox for wrinkles, Skin Botox Dermotoxin acts only on dermal structures at 1-2mm depth. Facial muscles at 4-6mm depth remain completely unaffected. No frozen look, no expression restriction — just smoother, refined skin surface.
- Sweat Reduction Bonus Dermotoxin’s effect on eccrine sweat glands provides an additional benefit for patients with facial hyperhidrosis or excessive forehead sweating. The same treatment that refines pores also reduces localized sweating by 20-40% in the treated zones.
| Timeline | What to Expect |
|---|---|
| Day 0 | Treatment completed in 60 minutes. Tiny injection marks fade within 1-2 hours. Apply SPF 30+ before leaving the clinic. No visible signs of treatment. |
| Day 1-3 | Botulinum toxin begins binding to nerve terminals at the neuroglandular junction. No visible changes yet. Avoid facial massage, hot sauna, and intense exercise. |
| Day 5-7 | First visible results: reduced facial oiliness, pores appear tighter, skin surface smoother. The glass skin effect becomes noticeable under natural light. |
| Week 2-4 | Peak Skin Botox Dermotoxin results. Maximum pore shrinkage (30-40%), sebum control established, and skin texture at its smoothest. This is the ideal window for photos and events. |
| Month 2-3 | Results remain strong. Maintenance appointment recommended at 3-4 months for sustained pore refinement and oil control. |
| Month 4-6 | Gradual return of sebum production and pore size as botulinum toxin naturally metabolizes. Schedule next Skin Botox Dermotoxin session for continuous glass skin maintenance. |

The Science Behind Skin Botox Dermotoxin
Peer-reviewed evidence supporting intradermal botulinum toxin for pore refinement, sebum control, and skin texture improvement.
Intradermal Botulinum Toxin A: Mechanism of Action
Botulinum toxin A (BoNT-A) injected at 1-2mm dermal depth acts on three target structures that distinguish Skin Botox Dermotoxin from conventional muscular Botox. First, it inhibits acetylcholine release at the neuroglandular junction of sebaceous glands, reducing sebum production by 20-30% over 3-4 months. Second, it paralyzes the arrector pili muscles attached to hair follicles, causing visible pore constriction measured at 30-40% diameter reduction under dermoscopy. Third, it suppresses eccrine sweat gland secretion in the treatment zone, reducing localized perspiration. This triple mechanism — oil control, pore shrinkage, and sweat reduction — creates the composite glass skin texture effect unique to Skin Botox Dermotoxin in Gangnam aesthetic practice.
Clinical Evidence for Pore and Sebum Reduction
A randomized double-blind study by Rose and Goldberg (2013) demonstrated that intradermal BoNT-A significantly reduced sebum production and pore size in the forehead region compared to saline controls, with effects lasting 8-10 weeks. Shah (2008) confirmed the sebum-reducing properties of intradermal BoNT-A using sebumeter measurements, showing 20-30% reduction in casual sebum levels at 4 weeks post-injection. In the Korean clinical setting, intradermal botulinum toxin for skin quality improvement — marketed as Skin Botox or Dermotoxin — has become one of the most requested aesthetic procedures, with an estimated 2.3 million treatments performed annually in South Korea as of 2024. The safety profile of Skin Botox Dermotoxin is well-established, with adverse events limited to transient injection-site erythema resolving within 1-2 hours.
Combination Protocols for Enhanced Glass Skin Outcomes
Recent literature supports combining Skin Botox Dermotoxin with skin boosters and collagen stimulators for synergistic results. Wu et al. (2016) showed that intradermal BoNT-A combined with hyaluronic acid fillers produced superior facial pore improvement and skin hydration scores versus either treatment alone. The RE:BERRY Signature Hydra Glow Package applies this evidence base by combining resistance-reducing Skin Boitox with Juberry 6cc (poly-lactic acid skin booster) and Re2O hydration — targeting pore size, oil control, and deep hydration simultaneously for comprehensive Skin Botox Dermotoxin glass skin transformation at the Gangnam clinic.
Safety and Duration of Intradermal Botulinum Toxin
The safety advantage of Skin Botox Dermotoxin over conventional muscle-targeting Botox lies in the significantly lower per-point dosage (0.5-1.0 units vs 4-8 units per point) and shallow injection depth (1-2mm vs 4-6mm). A systematic review by Humphrey et al. (2021) confirmed that intradermal BoNT-A at therapeutic doses does not affect underlying facial muscle function or alter facial expressions. Duration of pore-refinement effects averages 3-4 months, with some patients reporting sustained sebum control up to 5 months. The treatment is repeatable without tolerance development, making it suitable for long-term glass skin maintenance programs at RE:BERRY Gangnam.
