Q-Facial in Seoul: Q-Switched Laser Facial for Brighter Skin
A multi-step facial combining Q-switched Nd:YAG laser with soothing and hydrating care to even tone and refine texture.
Q-Facial is a non-invasive treatment that combines a Q-switched Nd:YAG laser (1064/532 nm) targeting melanin with calming, hydrating post-laser care. It is aimed at dull or uneven tone, freckles, sun spots, redness and enlarged pores. Downtime is minimal—mild redness may occur—and daily sunscreen is essential afterwards. In Gangnam a single session typically costs ₩100,000–₩300,000, with 3-session packages around ₩300,000–₩700,000.
What Is Q-Facial?
Q-Facial is a multi-step skin rejuvenation treatment combining advanced laser technology with customized skincare to improve skin tone, texture, and clarity. The “Q” refers to Q-switched laser, which targets pigmentation, redness, enlarged pores, and uneven skin tone. In Korea, Q-Facial is a popular non-invasive option for patients seeking brighter, smoother skin with minimal downtime.
How Q-Facial Works
The Q-Facial typically combines:
- Q-switched Nd:YAG Laser (usually 1064nm or 532nm wavelengths): targets melanin and pigmentation without damaging surrounding skin.
- Skin Soothing & Hydration Steps: serums, cooling masks, and moisturizers applied post-laser for calming and hydration.
- Customized Boosters: may include vitamin infusions, skin boosters, or light therapy depending on skin condition.
The treatment stimulates collagen, refines pores, and brightens skin while gently removing pigmented lesions and reducing redness.
