In Search of a Trusted Original: Why International Patients Come to Korea for Thermage FLX

 "Same device, same procedure — so why fly all the way to Korea for it?" Thermage FLX, the original monopolar RF platform, is available worldwide, including in China and Japan. Yet a significant number of international patients still travel to Korea for it — and Japanese patients, in particular, have grown noticeably more common in recent years. At Class One Clinic, where 60 to 70 percent of patients are international visitors, Dr. Wonkyu Hong points to three reasons. Treatment prices in Korea are relatively low, physicians perform the procedures themselves, and a transparent practice of opening sealed, genuine tips in front of patients has earned their trust. In some overseas markets, it can be difficult to verify whether a treatment tip is genuine, and some patients may hesitate to proceed unless they can see the sealed package opened firsthand. We asked Dr. Wonkyu Hong why international patients seek out a trusted original in Korea.

[ASLS KOREA 2026 Spring ②] 'Is It Really Safe?' — In the Skin Booster Market, the First Question Physicians Ask Is Changing

 This is part two of our on-site coverage from the ASLS KOREA 2026 Spring Congress. The skin booster and drug delivery sections drew as much attention as the EBD halls. Active ingredients are diversifying rapidly — PCL, PDLLA, CaHA, HA, human acellular dermal matrix, exosomes, TCA — and so are the approaches, spanning injectable and topical formats, biostimulators and hydration- and regeneration-focused formulations. Yet across every booth, the first response from clinicians converged around a single question: "Is it really safe?" As ingredient options diversify, the demand for rigorous validation of nodule risk and adverse events is rising in parallel — a shift that was unmistakable on the exhibition floor. We visited skin booster and drug delivery company booths to report firsthand.  #MedicalAestheticNews #ASLSKOREA2026 #ASLS #VAIM #HIGHERCorporation #BAZBIOMEDIC #Curiosis #reH #Humedix #WiQo #DNCAesthetics #HuonsMeditech #Dexlevo #PrimorisInternational ★ Article Link: http...

[Hands-On] The Power of Quasar Tension from the Scalp! Full-Face ‘SUNNY’ Lifting by Dr. Hyungdon Yoon_Part 1

 Dr. Hyungdon Yoon of Toxnfill Clinic Gangdong Cheonho has released a hands-on demonstration video showcasing his treatment techniques using the Quasar Tip of SUNNY, the premium RF lifting device by SHENB.

Less Pain, Longer Results — The Evolution of Skin Booster Injectors, Derma Shine Duo RF

 Dr. Hoyeon Choi of Clim Clinic is actively utilizing a new multi-needle injector that combines radiofrequency (RF) technology with skin booster treatments. According to Dr. Choi, this device adds RF functionality to the conventional multi-needle injector, creating synergistic effects in drug delivery, skin texture improvement, elasticity enhancement, and extended duration of results. He also highlighted reduced drug loss and less pain compared to manual injections as key advantages. Furthermore, he noted that when combined with existing monopolar RF or HIFU devices, the elasticity improvement effects become even more pronounced, making it a highly recommended option especially for international patients who cannot visit frequently. #MedicalAestheticNews #HuonsMeditech #DermaShine_Duo_RF #ClimClinic_Myeongdong #Dr_HoYeon_Choi ★ Article Link: https://www.aestheticnews.co.kr/news/articleView.html?idxno=10960
