Despite consistent at-home skincare, there are times when your skin condition doesn't improve as much as you'd hoped, causing concern.

Even with thorough cleansing, moisturizing, and sun protection, you might still experience rough skin texture or recurring breakouts.

This is because the areas of care that can be managed at home are distinct from those requiring professional intervention.

In this article, we aim to explore these boundaries of care and introduce the role of LDM, implemented at Kkeut Clinic in the field of skin management.

At-Home Skin Care

Home care focuses on consistently maintaining the basic condition of the skin's surface daily.

Cleansing to gently remove skin waste, moisturizing to protect the skin's moisture barrier, and sun protection to shield the skin from external irritation are the three most crucial elements.

These three care methods remain essential even for those receiving treatments at medical institutions.

Even after receiving treatments or professional care, daily skin care should be continued.

Sufficient sleep, immediate moisturizing after washing, and appropriately adjusting the exfoliation cycle are also important parts of home care.

Excessive exfoliation can weaken the skin barrier, leading to redness or stinging. Therefore, simply adjusting the frequency of exfoliation can be a significant part of your care routine.

Areas Difficult to Address at Home

At-home skin care is primarily limited to the scope of cosmetic ingredients acting on the skin.

Fundamental causes of recurring skin problems, the skin's recovery process after treatment, and the gradual decline in skin elasticity—aspects related to the skin's inherent environment—are difficult to address solely through the use of cosmetics.

Many people also use at-home skin care devices, but these devices have limitations in terms of size and performance, making it difficult to consider them equivalent to professional medical equipment.

Another important point is accurate skin condition diagnosis. When you look at your skin in the mirror every day, it can be difficult to notice subtle changes, and it's not easy to determine which care method is right for you.

In professional clinics, the process includes a meticulous analysis of the current skin condition and determining the appropriate treatment mode and procedure.

While home care focuses on maintaining daily skin health, professional clinics concentrate on improving the skin's inherent environment. These two areas have different roles and cannot replace each other.

LDM's Mechanism of Action

LDM is an ultrasound-based treatment used in skin care. This name is used only when performing the treatment with genuine Welcomet equipment.

A key feature that distinguishes LDM from general ultrasound management is that it continuously changes frequencies during the treatment.

During this frequency change process, a superposition phenomenon similar to multiple frequencies being emitted simultaneously can occur. This interference effect is known to help create a healthy environment inherent to the skin.

This superposition effect primarily appears in large, high-spec, genuine medical equipment.

Small, at-home ultrasound devices may not be able to achieve the same effect. Therefore, it is important to be aware that even if a home product is labeled 'LDM,' it may differ from a genuine LDM treatment.

Its applicability is broad. It can be recommended for overall skin improvement, such as soothing breakouts, anti-aging management, and skin recovery after procedures, which is why the metaphorical term 'skin savings' is sometimes used.

This implies an approach where gradual changes are expected through consistent ongoing management rather than immediate results.

LDM Treatment Time and Recommended Cycle

For LDM treatment, the standard duration per mode is set at 12 minutes.

This fixed treatment time can serve as a criterion for patients to confirm that the genuine equipment and appropriate treatment methods were used.

Before the treatment, inquiring about the duration of each mode can also be an important consideration when choosing a medical institution.

Generally, it may be recommended to receive it consistently once a week for a total of 10 sessions, over approximately 3 months.

Since this treatment is generally safe to receive daily, you can flexibly adjust the treatment schedule according to your individual timetable.

Even while receiving such professional care, at-home skin care should continue. It is an ideal division of roles for the clinic to help improve the skin environment, and for you to maintain basic skin care at home.

Kkeut Clinic's LDM Treatment Policy

Kkeut Clinic uses only genuine LDM equipment from Welcomet, and we guide patients on how to verify its authenticity themselves.

At Kkeut Clinic, we precisely carry out each mode for 12 minutes. Although a slower pace might sometimes require more effort, adhering to the set time is a crucial principle for us.

Based on the concept of 'skin savings,' Kkeut Clinic provides consultations considering the broad applicability of LDM, which can be recommended to all individuals with various skin concerns.

At Kkeut Clinic, we holistically consider both at-home care and professional medical institution care to guide each patient to a suitable treatment cycle.

The standards for LDM treatment presented by Kkeut Clinic are clear. These include the use of genuine equipment, precisely adhered-to treatment times, and consistent treatment cycles.

Frequently Asked Questions

Q. Isn't consistent at-home skincare enough?

A. At-home skincare refers to daily routines like cleansing, moisturizing, and sun protection, and consistency is crucial. On the other hand, fundamental skin environment improvement can be approached with professional help from medical institutions. Therefore, you might consider combining both methods.

Q. Do at-home skincare devices provide care similar to LDM?

A. At-home skin devices are generally small ultrasound machines. LDM is a procedure that uses specific frequencies of ultrasound, and its unique effects can only be expected with genuine medical equipment. The name LDM is exclusively used for genuine equipment from Wellcomet.

Q. How do I combine at-home skincare with LDM?

A. We suggest LDM treatments typically be performed once a week for a total of 10 sessions, approximately over a 3-month cycle. There is no significant burden even if this treatment is performed daily. It is recommended to continue your usual at-home skincare routines without interruption during the LDM treatment period.

Principles of Skin Care

We utilize genuine Wellcomet LDM equipment and strive for a more delicate approach to skin care through treatments performed for the standard 12-minute duration.

We strive to build trust in our treatments by transparently informing you about the use of genuine equipment and clearly confirming the treatment duration.

The treatment cycle, consistently performed once a week for a total of 10 sessions over approximately 3 months, is designed to offer comfort and foster expectations for positive treatment results.

We invite you to anticipate the changes that a delicate approach can bring. You can consult with our professional medical staff regarding your skin concerns.
