Hello.

Improving the essence of skin with sincerity,

Medical Director of Mind Dermatology

I am Hongseon Lee, a dermatologist with 17 years of experience.

​

​

​

"My skin has been so dull and lost elasticity lately,

is there a good skin booster?"

​

​

As temperatures rise and UV becomes stronger, many people are concerned about worsening skin condition.

​

​

At times like this, many look for skin booster care to help the skin recover more quickly.

​

Mapo-gu Dermatology Rituo

​

​

Among them, there is a procedure called Rituo that has been receiving a lot of attention.

​

​

Today I will explain in plain terms what effects Mapo-gu Dermatology Rituo actually has and who would particularly benefit from this procedure.

​

Mapo-gu Dermatology Rituo

Rituo — what exactly is the mechanism?

​

Mapo-gu Dermatology Rituo"acellular allogeneic dermis"is the main component of this skin booster.

​

​

The wording may sound a bit technical.

​

​

Simply put, it is prepared by removing only the cells that can trigger an immune response from real skin tissue,

​

​

leaving only the 'pure dermal components' that serve as the structural framework of the skin.​

​

​

This contains core skin constituents such as hyaluronic acid and collagen, as well as the extracellular matrix that acts as a strong scaffold for dermal regeneration.

​

​

​

​

In other words, as key components are lost from the skin with aging and leave empty spaces,you can understand it as a method that fills those spaces with 'real dermal tissue'.That's a helpful way to think about it.

​

​

It can provide basic improvement in elasticity and pore tightening,

​

​

and when injected into areas that lack a bit of volume, you can also expect a naturally plumping effect.

​

​

​

​

Because it has regenerative capacity strong enough to be used for treating burn scars and deep atrophic scars,

​

​

it may be a good alternative for those who felt existing collagen boosters were insufficient.

​

​

​

How is it different from conventional collagen boosters?

Mapo-gu Dermatology Rituo

The products we commonly know are mainlycomposed of ingredients that "stimulate collagen production."They work by stimulating fibroblasts in the skin,

​

​

an indirect approach that encourages your own skin to produce collagen.

​

​

​

​

Meanwhile, Mapo-gu Dermatology Rituois a direct method that delivers dermal components themselves straight into the skin.

​

​

Because it acts far more directly than using only collagen inducers,

​

​

a major advantage is that you can expect firmer regenerative effects and a noticeably denser feel.

​

​

​

Things to check before the procedure

​

"Wouldn't putting in a lot at once be more effective?"

​

​

I often receive this question during consultations.

​

​

​

​

However, if too much is injected without considering skin thickness or elasticity, the product can clump as a side effect. Rather than insisting on large volumes,

​

​

it is important to inject delicately at the appropriate depth and only as much as you need.​

​

​

Also, even if Rituo is a very good procedure,

​

​

other procedures may be more suitable depending on the patient's skin condition, or combining treatments can often produce synergy.

​

​

​

​

Its convenience and strong dermal regenerative effect can be appealing, but

​

​

results inevitably vary depending on skin type.

​

​

Rather than deciding based only on reviews, I recommend having a thorough consultation with the medical staff to develop a plan that truly fits your skin.

​

​

I will treat you with sincerity.
