The entire view of Sae-min plastic surgeon and dermatologist.

[부산=NSP통신] 조안나 인턴기자 = We are about to enter into the summer
season. That means a lot of women will be exposing themselves to the
sun's rays and tanning beds over the next several months.

Exposure to such sun rays or UV rays can cause freckles or even severe
skin damage. Recently, dermatologists have advertised a quick laser
procedure that deals with changes caused by UV rays.

------------------------------

Summer is approaching and our skin's worst enemies, UV rays, are coming.

To hear from an expert more about how to get real fair skin, I am here at a
plastic surgery center located in Busan.

------------------------------

Recently the number of patients visiting dermatologists, or plastic surgery
centers has greatly increased. This is due to the severe skin damage or
skin trouble caused by UV rays.


Plastic surgery centers are now becoming not only a place to get plastic
surgery for cosmetic reformation, but also a place where people can get
quick cosmetic touch-ups including simple botox, filler injections and laser
procedure.

"Summer is the season when our skin is greatly affected by our
surroundings, including UV rays. Therefore, it is necessary to make an
effort to take notice of our skin's condition."

[Customer, Kim Dong-Sook(47)]

"I'm here to get skin care at the clinic. Especially these days, it seems
UV rays have gotten stronger.

I am worried about my skin, because of overexposure to direct sunlight.
My skin is showing some freckles and spots. I heard about this plastic
surgery center that is famous for building healthy skin and specializes
in the care of skin. I feel very satisfied with the care and attention I have
received here.

I am impressed that professional skin consultants care for every patient
and customer."

Dermatologist Seung-Hyung Hong is giving 'Aqua Gent' clinic.

Hong Sueng-Hyun, who is a dermatological specialist and the director
of a dermatologist center, said that skin is like 'the surface of the ground'.
If there is no moisture in the ground it will crack and tear. Likewise is true
for our skin, so it is very important to maintain moisture to keep your skin
healthy.

One of the trendy clinic programs that is frequented by women is called
'Aqua Gent'.

The instrument used by the Aqua Gent program is called the
'Postmodernism'. This instrument is installed with a new technology using
'Multi-pin injection'. The machine simultaneously injects a polysaccharide
called hyaluronic acid into the many layers of the skin by using five micro
needles. The old treatment's equipment was only able to inject one specific
region, on one particular layer of a skin. This new skin treatment injects ions
of hyaluronic acid into the most miniscule particles of skin. This is clearly
impressive.

A single treatment of 'Aqua Gent' clinic program can effectively heal scarred
tissue, whiten discolored areas, and treat Alopecia. Although most Asians
are interested in skin brightening or whitening, it is difficult due to the
specific type of melanin in the skin, which keeps the skin color yellowish
dark. Most Asians aren't satisfied with the cosmetics on the market for skin
brightening. The dissatisfaction spreads even to some famous named-brand
cosmetics. However, surprisingly, many Asians who had 'Aqua Gent'
cinic treatment experienced a prominent effect of skin brightening.

"I just tried this clinic without any big expectations, but this is really amazing.
My skin feels much smoother now."



"My skin used to be very wrinkly and sensitive to sunlight. But after getting
'Aqua Gent' clinic treatment, my wrinkles improved and prevented deeper
wrinkles from forming."

Representative director, Jung-Hyun Jo is giving a wrinkle-lifting procedure.

Doublo' is also a great hit.



"'Doublo' is a procedure that applies a strong pulse, using ultrasonic
waves and thermal energy, for enhancing skin tissue's electrocoagulation.
'Doublo' is a proven method that is effective in furrows, crow's feet, and
wrinkles on necks and chins."

Dr. Jo doesn't say that cosmetic procedure can guarantee continuous
protection from UV rays; keeping a healthy life style is still fundamentally
very important. This should include eating lots of aqueous fruits,
lessening exposure to UV rays, and avoiding air-conditioned areas.In
addition, director Hong Seung-Hyun also recommended some tips to keep
skin healthy. The water content of facial skin fluctuates easily, so keeping
moisture in the skin is the most important thing. Try not to let any
air-conditioning touch the skin surface and intake lots of hydrating liquids.
Also, before going to bed, make sure you wash your face twice with a
deep cleanser.

Again, there are many people seeking dermatologists's help and I
always emphasize that keeping the right lifestyle for healthy skin is most
important, even after getting clinical treatment: take enough vitamin C, make
sure to put on sunscreen steadily throughout the day, and get skin
treatments regularly.

Recently the number of customers visiting dermatologists, or plastic surgery centers to get skin care clinics has greatl
