There's really nothing better than Pico Toning for improving dull skin tone.
📌 1. Visited Branch: "Maypure Hongdae Station Branch"
I looked in the mirror a while ago and let out a deep sigh because my skin tone looked particularly dull and patchy. In the past, I used to get compliments on my skin even when I just casually applied sunscreen, but I guess you really can't hide your age. It seemed like quite a few light blemishes had appeared on both cheeks, so I decided I couldn't just leave it like this and visited a dermatologist. I happened to have plans in the Hongdae area over the weekend, so I made an appointment in advance and stopped by while I was out. It was easy to find since it's located on the main street of Hongdae, and the clinic was clean inside, so I was able to rest comfortably while waiting.
After the consultation, they advised that Pico Toning would be suitable for my skin condition because it breaks down not only surface pigments but also melanin deep within the skin. Hearing that it delivers energy much faster than regular toning, minimizing damage to surrounding skin while being highly effective at selectively destroying pigments, I decided right away to get it done. I lay down in the treatment room, received a thorough cleansing, and the Pico Toning began; it felt a bit like having my skin gently tapped with a rubber band. It stung a little more in areas with thin skin, like around the eyes and cheekbones, but it was quite bearable haha.
The procedure finished quickly, taking only about 15 minutes, so I thought it would be great to squeeze in a break even during a busy schedule. After the Pico Toning treatment, they even applied a cooling soothing pack, which helped calm my flushed skin down quickly. There was a slight redness right after the procedure, but it completely subsided after a few hours, so I had no trouble applying makeup and meeting a friend.
I have been consistently receiving Pico Toning treatments about three times so far, at one-week intervals. It’s amazing to see that my overall complexion has definitely brightened and my skin texture has become smoother. When I wash my face and look in the mirror, my skin seems to have a natural glow, which makes me feel great every morning. I have high hopes that my light blemishes will fade significantly once I complete the remaining sessions. I was told that it is essential to apply a generous amount of regenerating cream and thoroughly apply sunscreen when going out after Pico Toning, so I am diligently taking care of my skin. If you are worried about a dull complexion, you really should give this a try!
