What is rough texture?

Uneven, bumpy skin surface. Common causes include dead-cell buildup, scarring and sun damage. Because several factors are often involved at once, Gangnam clinics usually begin with a skin or facial analysis and then combine treatments rather than relying on a single procedure.

Treatments for rough texture in Gangnam

• Fractional CO2 Laser – an ablative fractional laser for scars, wrinkles and texture (typically ₩150,000–₩500,000; downtime: 5-7 days of redness and flaking)
• Erbium Laser Resurfacing – an ablative erbium laser for precise resurfacing with shorter healing (typically ₩150,000–₩500,000; downtime: 3-5 days)
• Chemical Peel – acid peels (AHA, BHA, Jessner) that renew the top skin layer (typically ₩50,000–₩300,000; downtime: light flaking 2-5 days)

How doctors build a plan

A typical plan starts with the least invasive option that matches the cause, then adds stronger treatments if needed. Many visitors combine a device treatment with an injectable on the same day, but your doctor should confirm what can be safely combined and how far apart sessions should be.
