Melasma Treatment in Seoul, Korea | QD Skin Clinic

IV Therapy in Seoul – Refresh, Rehydrate, Recharge

A Gentle, Science-Based Approach to Melasma in Seoul

Melasma requires a careful, long-term plan—not aggressive lasers or quick fixes.
At QD Skin Clinic, we prioritize skin barrier health, pigment stability, and steady brightening to safely manage melasma and minimize rebound.

Every patient receives a doctor-led consultation, imaging analysis, and a custom protocol based on melasma depth, triggers, and skin sensitivity.

Why Melasma Needs Special Care

Melasma can be triggered by:

  • Sun & heat exposure
  • Hormonal changes
  • Inflammation & irritation
  • Genetics & stress
  • Incorrect or aggressive laser treatments

Because melasma can worsen easily, QD Skin Clinic uses calm, controlled treatments designed to fade pigment without harming the skin barrier.
