qd juvelook skin
Juvelook Skin is the standard Juvelook formula — fine PDLLA microparticles blended with hyaluronic acid, placed in the upper-to-mid dermis to refine texture, soften fine lines and improve glow. At QD Clinic in Gangnam, Seoul, it is chosen for overall skin quality rather than volume. A session usually takes about 20–40 minutes including numbing. (Results vary by individual.)
is this for me
Who it’s for
Even if none of these describes you, we will look again at the consultation.
- Rough or uneven texture and enlarged-looking pores
- Dull skin that could look more radiant
- Fine lines where you want skin quality rather than volume
- Those wanting broad, even skin-quality improvement across the face
Whether Skin or another Juvelook type suits you is confirmed during consultation.
Before you pick a treatment name, start with the cause of your concern.
start with your concern
Even a treatment with the same name takes on a different role and scope depending on your current structure, the change you want, what you have had before and the recovery time you have.
01
Where you are now, and where we start
Pores, fine lines, skin texture and shallow changes in volume
02
The change you want, the impression you keep
Rather than adding more volume, we decide where to fill and where to leave alone, and the line at which expression stays natural.
03
How it differs from similar options
We compare what filler, Botox and skin boosters each change and what they cannot change, with the alternatives alongside them.
04
Health information and recovery schedule
Beforehand we check blood thinners, immune conditions and allergies, past injectables, possible pregnancy and the dates that matter.
the
principle
Before the product name we match the actual ingredients, the injection layer and your skin concern, then decide the dose, the interval and anything done alongside it.
Juvelook Skin uses fine PDLLA microparticles blended with hyaluronic acid. Placed in the upper-to-mid dermis with fine microinjections, the HA hydrates immediately while the PDLLA is gradually resorbed and is thought to support collagen renewal, helping refine texture, soften fine lines and improve radiance over a series of sessions. Its finer particle size is aimed at broad skin-quality improvement rather than adding volume — that is the main difference from Juvelook Volume.

How it works
01
Fine PDLLA with hyaluronic acid
Juvelook Skin uses fine PDLLA microparticles blended with hyaluronic acid, placed in the upper-to-mid dermis.
02
Hydration now, texture over time
The HA hydrates immediately, while the finer PDLLA particles are gradually resorbed and are thought to support collagen renewal for texture and glow.
03
Finer particles, nearer the surface
The smaller particle size and shallower placement are aimed at broad skin-quality improvement rather than adding volume.
04
Why change is gradual
Collagen-related change develops over a series of sessions and the following weeks rather than at once. (Results vary by individual.)
The same treatment, never the same plan.
the qd standard
Rather than a fashionable name or a fixed package, we weigh the structure found at examination, safety, recovery and the limits within one plan.
- 01DIAGNOSIS FIRSTCause before nameWe first separate out the tissue and the function behind your concern.
- 02LESS, PRECISEOnly as much as neededRather than an excessive change, we plan the smallest scope with a clear role.
- 03HONEST LIMITThe limits, explained tooWe explain the change you can expect, the alternatives, individual differences and the risks.

From consultation to follow-up, planned as one flow.

Ingredients and authenticity
We check the product name, the maker, the ingredients, the expiry date and the use approved for that purpose.
Anatomy and expression
We look at where vessels are at risk, at muscle movement, skin thickness and the proportions of the whole face, then set the injection points.
Small amounts, one stage at a time
Allowing for swelling and the early response, we avoid overcorrection and top it up later if that is needed.
What the procedure is like
- Consultation and skin assessment
- Cleansing and numbing cream
- Fine microinjections in the upper-to-mid dermis
- Cooling, soothing and aftercare guidance
Time: A session takes about 20–40 minutes, including numbing time.
Please read this before treatment
- Little downtime; small papules or raised bumps at the injection sites may appear and usually settle within about 1–2 days.
- Temporary redness, mild swelling, tenderness or minor bruising may occur.
- Avoid makeup, saunas and intense exercise briefly, use sun protection, and follow the guidance we provide.
Safety & considerations
Possible reactions
- Small papules or raised bumps at the injection sites, usually settling within about 1–2 days
- Temporary redness, mild swelling or a flushed feeling
- Tenderness in the treated area for a short time
- Occasionally minor bruising at injection points
When to take extra care
- Pregnancy or breastfeeding — let us know at consultation
- Active skin infection, inflammation or open lesions in the treatment area
- Known allergy or hypersensitivity to any component of the product
- A history of keloid, granuloma formation or difficulty with wound healing
- Recent injectables or energy treatments in the area — tell your doctor so timing can be planned
what to expect
What to expect over time
A general guide to how the days and months after treatment usually unfold. Results vary by individual.
DAY 0
Treatment day
Numbing first, then fine microinjections in the upper-to-mid dermis. Small papules or raised bumps may appear, with mild redness or swelling; skin may feel hydrated.
DAY 1-2
Papules settling
The small papules usually settle within about 1–2 days. Minor bruising, if any, starts to fade.
WEEK 1
Hydration felt
Many people notice a hydrated, fresher-looking surface early from the hyaluronic acid. This varies between people.
2-3 MONTHS
Texture & glow
Over the sessions and the following weeks, texture and radiance may improve as collagen renews. (Results vary by individual.)
AFTER THE COURSE
Review & maintenance
Your doctor reviews the outcome and discusses maintenance timing based on your skin.
Sessions & results
A typical plan is about 2–3 sessions spaced roughly 4 weeks apart, with hydration felt early and texture and glow developing gradually over 2–3 months. Maintenance is considered after a period decided at consultation. (Results vary by individual.)
how it compares
How it compares
These boosters all support skin quality, but they differ in particle size, depth and material — so the right one depends on whether you want texture, structure or repair support.
| Juvelook Skin | Juvelook Volume | Rejuran Healer | |
|---|---|---|---|
| Main agent | Fine PDLLA microparticles + HA | Larger PDLLA microparticles + HA | Polynucleotides (from salmon DNA) |
| How it works | Refines texture and glow near the surface | Adds subtle structure placed deeper | Supports the skin’s own repair |
| Often chosen for | Texture, pores and radiance | Softened cheeks, temples, folds | Overall skin quality, fine lines |
| Sessions | Usually 2–3 | Usually 2–3 | Usually 3–4 |
| Downtime | Little; small papules possible | Little; small bumps possible | Little; small bumps possible |
Neither is “better” — they work differently and suit different goals. The right choice is decided after we assess your skin.
Before you decide, the questions people always ask
before consultation
The material is the same; what differs is the particle size and where we place it. Juvelook Skin has finer particles, so it is spread across the face to work on skin texture, fine lines and the area around the pores, while Juvelook Volume has larger particles and is used to fill in areas that have sunken. As a rule of thumb, if your concern is the texture of the skin itself, Skin is the right choice; if it is a loss of volume, then Volume is.
As the dermis around the pores becomes thicker, the pores can look less pronounced. That said, the pores themselves do not actually become smaller, and pores that are enlarged by heavy sebum production or by scarring are better suited to other methods. We first check which type you have, and then plan the treatment together with you.
We place it in small amounts across whichever areas concern you, from the forehead to the cheeks and around the mouth. Including the time for numbing cream, it usually takes around 20 to 40 minutes, depending on how wide an area we cover. Because it is injected over a broad area, small injection marks appear in several places, so it is better to leave some room in your schedule. How far we treat is something we decide together at the consultation.
Injection marks and mild redness usually settle within one to three days. Since the product is distributed over the whole face, the marks appear in several places, and some people do bruise, so we recommend leaving about a week before an important occasion. Please avoid saunas, strenuous exercise and alcohol on the day of your treatment.
Sessions are normally planned as a course of several treatments a few weeks apart. Because the change PDLLA brings about appears gradually over several months, we do not recommend having them too close together. The number of sessions and the interval between them are decided individually, based on the condition of your skin and how it responds.
