Quick answer
What Causes Combination Skin?
Combination skin has more sebaceous glands and oil in the T-zone – forehead, nose and chin – while the cheeks and outer face are normal or dry. It is one of the most common skin types.
The pattern is mainly genetic and hormonal, and it often shifts with seasons: oilier in humid summers and drier in cold winters. Using one product for the whole face can make it worse, stripping dry areas or clogging oily ones.
Because the face has two needs at once, a doctor-level assessment maps where oil, dryness, pores and redness actually sit before choosing treatments. Also see oily skin and dry skin.

FAQ
Combination Skin in Seoul – Frequently Asked Questions
How much is combination skin treatment in Seoul?
At Doje Clinic, the cost of Combination Skin Treatment 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 best treatment for combination skin?
The best treatment for combination skin usually combines oil control for the T-zone, such as targeted skin Botox, with hydration for drier cheeks, such as boosters. The balance depends on your skin.
Can skin Botox be used only on the T-zone?
Yes. Skin Botox can be placed mainly on the forehead, nose and chin to reduce oil there, while dry areas are left untreated or hydrated instead.
Is there downtime with combination skin treatment?
Most combination skin treatments have little or no downtime. Booster injections may leave small bumps for one to two days.
Can I treat combination skin during a trip to Seoul?
Yes. A single visit to Doje Clinic in Gangnam can include oil control and hydration, and results develop over the following weeks after you return home.
Does combination skin change over time?
Combination skin often becomes drier with age as oil production falls, and it varies with seasons. Treatment plans are adjusted as your skin changes.
Do the doctors speak English?
Yes. English consultations are available, with LINE & KakaoTalk booking. Message +82 10-6535-2110 on WhatsApp.
