Hydration & Recovery
Most useful for travelers: dehydration, jet lag, low oral intake. Can help you feel better—but doesn’t “erase” skin disease.
| Treatment | Typical range | Unit |
|---|---|---|
| Glutathione IV Drip | $35–$210 | per session |
| Cinderella IV (ALA blend) | $35–$140 | per session |

Adjunctive IV options sometimes offered by clinics in Seoul—what each is for, what to avoid, and how to decide safely.

Only meaningful when you have low levels (or risk factors). Best practice: labs first, then targeted correction.
Sometimes used as supportive care around procedures, but benefits are variable. Avoid extreme dosing and non-medical setups.
If your goal is pigment, acne, redness, or scars, start with the correct pathway guide under Skin Concerns.

Conservative, PIH-aware guidance: mechanism first, then realistic pacing, then a safety checklist you can actually use at a clinic.
| Phase | What to do | Why it matters |
|---|---|---|
| Before | Stabilize barrier, avoid over-exfoliation, strict UV/visible-light protection | Lower inflammation → lower rebound/PIH |
| Procedure day | Conservative settings, avoid stacking multiple high-heat treatments | Inflammation control is outcome control |
| After (0–7d) | Gentle cleanse + moisturizer, no harsh actives, sun avoidance | Protect the healing window |
| Follow-up | Reassess at 4–8 weeks; adjust intensity and interval | Pacing prevents relapse |
Use these scenarios to pressure-test a plan. If a clinic can’t explain the “why,” slow down.
Play: Start barrier-first, patch-test actives, prioritize low-heat options.
Watch: If stinging/burning persists >48h after a treatment, stop actives and reassess.
Play: Lower energy, longer intervals, strict photoprotection + pigment-safe topicals.
Watch: Avoid stacking peel + laser in the same visit.
Play: Do fewer, safer sessions; avoid ‘big downtime’ close to flights.
Watch: Plan conservative timing for swelling/redness windows.
