Recently, I experienced my first skincare treatment ever, trying the popular Skin Booster Botox in Korea!
This treatment is known for its benefits such as skin hydration, radiance, and pore tightening. I will provide a detailed report on what it was like to receive this treatment at a clinic in Korea!
What is Skin Booster Botox?
Skin Booster Botox is a treatment where beauty ingredients such as Botox, hyaluronic acid, and growth factors are injected into the skin using a special machine.
The main benefits include skin firming and radiance, wrinkle improvement, pore tightening, and reducing the secretion of sebum and sweat, while improving dry skin and overall skin quality.

Pre-Treatment Consultation
I visited the clinic with the main goal of improving the redness around my nose.
Before visiting, I saw reviews saying “The doctor speaks great English!” so I expected the consultation to go smoothly in English… but!
In reality, the consultation was handled by a counselor who didn’t speak much English.
It made me a bit nervous, but with the help of a translation device, I was able to communicate my concerns about the redness around my nose.
During the consultation, they told me that “one treatment wouldn’t solve the issue,” which I expected, and they recommended a package of 5 treatments. I decided to go for it.
Actually, this was the first time I had heard about Skin Booster Botox, and I didn’t know much about its effects, so I was a bit surprised, but I looked forward to the results!
Skin Booster Botox Treatment Report
The clinic was very clean, and although the staff didn’t speak English, they were very kind and helpful!
The treatment itself, including applying anesthesia and post-treatment care like facial masks, took about 1 hour.
And the actual treatment… well, to be honest, it was really painful! They injected the serum into the area around my cheeks, and it hurt so much that I couldn’t stop crying.
Although the doctor kindly spoke to me during the procedure, the pain was so overwhelming that I couldn’t respond and thought, “Please, don’t talk to me!” (lol).
Post-Treatment Progress
Immediately after the treatment, I had a few bumpy marks and redness around my cheeks, but by the next day, the swelling and redness had subsided💫⟡.·
Results and Satisfaction
After about two days, I noticed my skin was firmer, more hydrated, and had a glowing appearance. I was amazed by the results!
To be honest, I was mainly concerned with the redness around my nose, so I didn’t expect much else, but a week later, I found myself thinking, “Wow, my skin is so radiant!” (lol).
While the redness around my nose hasn’t improved yet, the skin texture on my cheeks has improved, so overall, I am satisfied with the results.
Cost: For my first skin treatment, I purchased a package of 5 sessions for 55,000 yen (approximately 11,000 yen per session).
The treatment plan is customized for each session, so please take this as a general reference.
Conclusion
Ultimately, the redness around my nose, which I wanted to fix the most, hasn’t shown improvement yet.
However, since I was told beforehand that it would take more than one session to see results, I wasn’t expecting too much. On the other hand, the improvement in my cheeks’ texture was a pleasant surprise!
I wanted to ask the doctor to do a bit more for my nose area during the treatment, but the pain was too intense for me to say anything (lol).
Still, I’m very happy with how smooth and radiant my cheeks are! If you’re looking to improve skin hydration or reduce pore size, I highly recommend giving this treatment a try if you visit Korea♡.
