Singapore Blogger Tyler Hikaru's Visit to Renewme Skin Clinic

CLICK HERE to be directed to Tyler's original blog post!


Hello guys :) This is my follow up post for my visit to Renewme Skin Clinic :)

As mentioned in my previous post, I've done a total of 4 treatments :) And i'll be highlighting them for your info as we proceed!

When you first enter the clinic for your consultation, you'll be greeted by the friendly staff present! For my case, I was greeted by Saemmul who was my english coordinator that day! That's her in the photo below (sorry for the unflattering pic but you still look gorgeous there saemmul hehe!)



After which, you'll be handed a brochure of the list of extensive procedures that's available in the clinic so that you can gain a wider knowledge of the procedures and the clinic details in specifics!



After filling in my personal particulars, I was directed to the consultation room where my doctor, Doctor Ha Ji Hyun (who's a specialist in dermatology and also one of the directors of Renewme Skin Clinic) assessed my current skin condition. 



After a thorough assessment my skin condition, Dr Ha Ji Hyun asked if I was applying any makeup as my skin looks really good *shy* hahaha! But other than that, we discussed my current skin concerns, which were mainly my present acne scars and post hyperpigmentation marks (those pinkish marks leftover by acne). 

From there, she suggested the following treatments.

1) Innofill 
2) PRP Dermashine + HA
3) Excel-v Laser
4) Fractional Laser


After the consultation with the doctor, you'll be guided to another consultation room where the friendly & kind consultants will brief you on the procedures which were recommended by the doctor. I find that this process is really good as they're ensuring that all your clients/patients are fully aware of the skin treatment procedures & their side effects etc.

In the past, I've been to several clinics which neglects it and I find that they shouldn't do it! I feel that it's truly important for the clinics to brief their patients on the procedures they'll be undergoing so that they know what they'll be undergoing and know what they're paying for.


Once we're done with all the briefs and consultation, we're on to the next step for my procedures.

NUMBING CREAM! :) 


After setting the numbing cream for 40minutes or so, you'll be directed to the operating room where the doctors will proceed with the procedures discussed earlier :) This is my skin in it's raw glory, no edits or filters present!


Injecting of the anesthesia.... was really painful even with the numbing cream present! I had to clench my fist real hard and convince myself continuously that the pain was worth it in order to achieve flawless skin!

Pain factor: 7/10


The first procedure: Innofill

Innofill is a procedure where radiofrequencies is emitted from a special patented needle and treats acne scars from under the skin. The needle cuts the tangled skin tissues that's holding down the skin, while the radiofrequency triggers collagen production to generate newer skin :)

Though there was a little tugging here and there throughout the procedure, there was 0 pain. Thank god for the anesthesia.

Pain factor 0/10



The second procedure which I did was the PRP DermaShine + HA

The PRP Dermashine + HA is a procedure which includes HYALURONIC ACID SOLUTION mixed together withPLATELET RICH PLASMA which is from your very own blood! It is then injected back onto your face to stimulate collagen production, vitalize skin cells, moisturize, improve skin elasticity, correct enlarged pores, dull skin and also rough skin texture!

To be honest, I was a little skeptical of the benefits of this procedure at the start. However, after doing some intensive research of my own, I found out that this procedure is one of the most popular treatments in the skincare industry and many kpop idols & hollywood celebrities swear by this treatment!



The injection begins! A quick warning though, after the procedure, you'll look like someone took a rolling pin and scrubbed it all over your face! My face probably had around 1000+ injection bumps visible after the treatment and it'll last for a few hours! 




Pain Factor: 8/10
I cried. It's all worth it... for flawless skin :') 

After the first two procedures. I was directed to the soothing care room, where the nurse applied a soothing mask on me! She proceeded with the Cyrocell treatment and Light therapy to soothe my skin! 




After taking a short nap, I was directed to the operating room again! This time round, I'll be doing the excel v laser and fractional laser!

Excel-v Laser is an award-winning laser system that operates in 3 different modes to treat a wider and complex range of skin condition. Which includes pigmentation, tightening + rejuvenation and lifting :)

As for the fractional laser, it is a procedure whereby the laser delivers wavelengths via tiny, divided laser beams to make microscopic holes in the skin. These holes helps to stimulate the skin's natural response to heal itself and product more collagen. Thus providing fast acne scar recovery!



Pain Factor of both procudures: 2/10
Just a little tingly ants bite sensation!

And finally, I'm done with the treatment procedures :) I was directed back into the soothing care room where the nurse applied a soothing mask for me before I left!



And that's about it!!

It's been roughly a week since I've done the 4 mentioned procedures and i'm currently seeing AMAZING RESULTS!!! Though there are still slight bruising from the innofill, My skin has never been so dewy, smooth and clear my entire life!! I'll be waiting for a few more days and snap more photos before I show you guys the final results :)

Once again, a big thank you to Saemmul who's my coordinator and Renewme Skin Clinic for the intensive and effective treatments ;)

Tip for Preventing Acne - Clean Your Makeup Brushes!

The air quality in Korea is pretty bad (to say the least) these days. During spring, when the weather should be crisp and sunny, we've got dust particles and sand blowing in from China, clouding up the air and polluting our lungs. Sometimes it gets so bad that the forecast issues warnings to stay indoors, or wear a mask if you need to go outside.

These preventative measures are sometimes not good enough, though. In extreme cases, you are advised to change your clothes and brush yourself down after you get home, wash your hands even more frequently, and so forth. Thorough cleansing is a must as well; these dust particles are so tiny, sometimes even masks are not enough to keep them from entering your lungs. Imagine what these would do if they clogged up your pores as well?

You might already think you're already pretty through with your cleansing routine. However, there might be some of you who have not extended the same care and attention to your makeup brushes as well. Yep, that's right. Feeling guilty, anyone?

Cleaning your makeup brushes is essential to maintaining healthy skin. This applies especially to any time of foundation/concealer applicator such as brushes, or even sponges and puffers. Unlike cake/powder type makeup, foundation and conceals contain a lot more oil. When left on the brush for too long, it can attract more pollutants and bacteria, ultimately resulting in breakouts and acne on the skin. Furthermore, if the foundation hardens it can damage the brush itself as well.

So what is the best way to clean your brushes? You can purchase a professional brush cleaner, or just use your average foam cleanser or any neutral detergent. It's better not to use cleansing oils because you want to remove the excess oils from your makeup products.


Lather up your brushes and remember to rinse well. It's also a good idea to remove the excess makeup with a tissue before using the cleanser or detergent. Remember to dry thoroughly before reusing. And as for intervals, cleaning your brushes would be recommended every 10 days or so.

Yes, ladies, it is quite a chore, to wash your brushes this regularly, but you gotta do what you gotta do if you want flawless and beautiful skin. If your skin is especially sensitive and susceptible to breakouts, this is an even bigger must for you. Little habits like these are what keep your skin in check! ;)

Comprehensive Package for Acne, Acne Scars, & Acne Marks

If you are pressed for time when you're visiting in Korea, and looking for a treatment package that can address all of your acne related concerns in just one visit, here is a highly recommended one-day cocktail that can help improve acne, scars, and marks!

This package includes the following treatments:

AquaPeel + Excel V Laser + Fractional Laser + INNOfill

For those of you who want to know exactly what goes on upon arrival, and are curious about what exactly the treatment is about, make sure to keep reading. ;-)



Once you arrive at Renewme Skin Clinic, an interpreter will be present to help you register while you fill out a patient information form and wait for consultation with the dermatologist.



Consultation is done (with interpreter present) with a board certified and experienced dermatologist who will suggest the most appropriate treatments for your skin condition. As there will be no language barriers thanks to our interpreters, you can ask as many questions as you want and make sure you fully understand the treatments before proceeding.



If you have any makeup on, you will need to remove it and cleanse your face to prepare for treatment. A powder room is available, with all the necessary products for makeup removing and cleansing, and even a bit of additional pampering.


The first treatment is AquaPeel, a facial for all skin types (but even better for acne patients) that exfoliates and hydrates the skin. This machine uses a suctioned hand-tip to remove excess oil and impurities from the skin, while distributing vitamins and nutrients.


Excel V laser is one of the most advanced lasers at our clinic; it operates in three modes and can treat a range of skin concerns including pigmentation, skin elasticity, and vascular lesions. It is a recommended treatment for red acne marks, or any particular skin concerns related to redness/flushing.



Fractional laser creates tiny microscopic holes in the face to trigger the skin's natural healing response, therefore regenerating collagen that can fill up acne scars. Results are best when combined with INNOfill, which is a radiofrequency treatment emitted from the tip of a special patented needle. Click here for more information on acne scar treatments.




Since your skin can feel a bit sensitive after all those lasers, soothing care is essential. A cooling mask as well as some LED phototherapy can help calm your skin and prevent irritations.

If you're curious to how this patient's skin turned out, stay tuned since we will be updating her testimonial real soon!

As for the package pricing:

  • AquaPeel: 200,000 KRW
  • Excel V Laser: 700,000 KRW
  • Fractional Laser: 700,000 KRW
  • INNOfill: 750,000 KRW

Original price is 2,350,000 KRW, but for the full package we can offer it to you at 2,000,000 KRW, including further soothing care and a set of cosmetic products (original price 132,000 KRW)!!!

Don't miss out on this opportunity for a total skin transformation. If you're wondering how Koreans all have such good skin, contact us today for consultation!

Natural V-Line and Lifting with SHURINK + FILLER Package

Korean girls are all about the V LINE - the subtle oval shaped face with a slightly pointy chin and plump cheeks. With volume in all the right places, it's not so difficult to achieve the optimal Korean facial shape, and at Renewme Skin Clinic we have the perfect package that might help you with this. The best part about this program is that the treatments are non-surgical and have no downtime, which means you can jump right back into your tourist activities as if nothing happened, no mask or sunglasses necessary. The only difference is that your beauty will have subtly enhanced, enough to make your friends notice immediately that something's changed. Who knows? Maybe it may even make your crush look twice! ;)

So what is this amazing package? Before I let you in on the details, let's take a look first at some real results.



Maybe you might understand what I mean when I say "subtle enhanced". This patient has the same beautiful face, yet in the after photo she looks a little more defined, feminine, sophisticated... or is it just me? In any case you should definitely be able to tell some slight improvements, although she was already quite pretty from the start.

The main treatments for this magic: Shurink HIFU and dermal filler!

Shurink (HIFU) Non-Invasive Lifting
Shurink uses ultrasound to deliver energy deep into the skin without disrupting skin tissues, and gradually increases collagen formation for natural lifting effects. It's a highly recommended treatment for sagging and aging skin, but also for those who want to firm the skin or give it a little boost to prevent aging in the future. Collagen can also help improve the skin condition in general; in addition, the lifting effects can help contour the jawline to give you a sharper look.

Dermal Filler (Hyaluronic Acid)
Hyaluronic acid is a substance that already exists in our bodies, but decreases with age. HA has high water containing capacities so works as an excellent moisturizer; but one of its common uses is to replenish volume naturally in the face. Dermal fillers can apply to pretty much any area of the face: cheeks, chin, under-eyes, forehead, temples, nose bridge, etc.
This package would entail 2 syringes in the forehead and 1 syringe in the chin. One syringe is actually one cubic centimeter, so for those of you who think "I don't want any huge, dramatic, obvious change," you really don't need to worry. Firstly, one cc is not as large as you might think. Secondly, results from filler, like the photos above, are so natural - what's even better, there's no swelling or downtime either!

What else might be included in this package?


Cryocell Facial
Also known as cryo-eletrophoresis, Cryocell delivers vitamins and nutrients to frozen skin by using electric currents instead of needles. This treatment contracts the blood vessels to prevent them from absorbing the solution, making results longer lasting. Cryocell is most often combined with other laser treatments since it has cooling and soothing effects that help the skin recover more quickly.


Velvet Mask
A dry mask paper sheet is cut to match your face, after which it adheres once water is applied. The texture feels velvety, hence the name. This is a high-quality mask not readily available at your local cosmetic shop - it requires at least 30 minutes of application and has amazing moisturizing and additional whitening effects as well.


Omega LED Therapy
LED therapy has soothing and calming effects after laser treatments. It can be used to treat inflammatory acne/skin, breakouts, and just prevent any irritations or swelling. An excellent way to end a series of package treatments!


Cosmetics Set
A cosmetic product set originally worth 132,000 KRW includes intensive moisturizer, sun screen, and 10 sheet masks to maintain your good skin even after you go back home and resume your daily working life.

So how many things were just mentioned here?

  • Shurink HIFU 400 shots
  • Dermal Filler 3 syringes
  • Cryocell Facial
  • Velvet Mask
  • Omega LED Therapy
  • Cosmetics Set

A full cocktail treatment package as mentioned above will cost 2,500,000 KRW total. Don't miss out on this deal, especially when the results are this satisfactory! Don't forget to contact us today for consultation.
