Quick answer · What is Sensitive Skin?
Sensitive skin is skin that reacts easily with stinging, redness, itching or dryness, usually because of a weakened barrier and sometimes because of rosacea, eczema or allergy. It is managed rather than cured. At RE:BERRY Clinic, a doctor first looks for an underlying condition, then uses gentle barrier-supporting treatments such as LDM, Rejuran or PDRN, and low-energy Genesis toning for redness. Sessions take 20–40 minutes; boosters may leave small bumps for 1–2 days.

How it works
Repair the barrier first, then calm the redness
When the skin barrier is weakened, water escapes and irritants get in more easily, so the skin stings, flushes and dries out. Treatment focuses on calming inflammation and supporting repair with gentle ultrasound, polynucleotide boosters and low-energy laser, alongside a simplified skincare routine. If rosacea, eczema or allergy is suspected, medical treatment or a dermatology referral may be advised.

FAQ
Sensitive Skin questions we hear every day
Can sensitive skin be cured?
Sensitive skin is usually managed rather than permanently cured. Repairing the barrier and avoiding triggers can make it much calmer and less reactive over time.
Which treatment is best for sensitive skin?
Gentle options such as LDM and polynucleotide boosters like Rejuran are often used to support repair, with low-energy toning for redness. Your doctor avoids anything your skin cannot tolerate.
Is sensitive skin the same as rosacea?
Not always. Rosacea is a specific condition with flushing, persistent redness and sometimes bumps, and it may need prescription treatment. See our rosacea page for more.
How many sessions will I need?
Most patients have three to five visits two to four weeks apart, then occasional maintenance.
Can I sightsee or fly after treatment?
Yes. LDM and toning usually have no downtime, and booster bumps typically settle within a day or two. Use gentle skincare and sunscreen.
How much does sensitive skin treatment cost in Myeongdong?
Price depends on the treatments chosen and the number of sessions. The same price list applies to every nationality and is given to you in writing before treatment. See our Rejuran and skin booster price list.
