Quick answer
What Is Skin Botox?
Skin Botox, also called dermotoxin or microbotox, is a highly diluted botulinum toxin injected as many micro-droplets into the dermis rather than deep into muscle. It is thought to calm oil glands and tiny superficial muscle fibres, giving smoother-looking, less shiny skin.
Unlike wrinkle Botox, which relaxes a specific expression muscle, skin Botox spreads a very small amount evenly across the skin. Many people use it for pores and shine on the cheeks and T-zone, for fine crepey lines, or as a neck add-on.
Skin Botox does not add hydration or volume. For a glowing, plumper look it pairs well with hyaluronic acid boosters such as Skinvive.

FAQ
Skin Botox in Seoul – Frequently Asked Questions
How much is skin Botox in Gangnam, Seoul?
At Doje Clinic, the cost of Skin Botox depends on the areas treated and the bespoke plan designed at your 1:1 consultation with Dr. Byun Je-ik, so prices are confirmed after the doctor's assessment. Message us on WhatsApp for an initial guide.
What is the difference between skin Botox and regular Botox?
Regular Botox is injected into a specific muscle to relax wrinkles. Skin Botox uses a much more diluted toxin spread as micro-droplets in the upper skin, mainly to reduce oiliness, refine pores and soften fine lines.
Does skin Botox shrink pores?
Skin Botox may make pores look smaller by reducing oil production and smoothing the skin surface. Pores do not disappear, and results vary with skin type.
How long does skin Botox last?
Skin Botox typically lasts around 2 to 3 months. Many people repeat it regularly or before important events.
Does skin Botox hurt?
Skin Botox involves many small shallow injections, so numbing cream is applied first. Pain-free versions with added comfort care are also listed at Doje Clinic.
Can I do skin Botox before flying home?
Yes. Skin Botox has minimal downtime, with bumps that settle within hours. Book at least a week before you leave Seoul to see the result.
Do the doctors speak English?
Yes. English consultations are available, and you can book on WhatsApp at +82 10-6535-2110.
