Dermatology ClinicStem Cell Facial in Busan, Korea A regenerative facial with stem-cell-derived ingredients for tired, dry or recovering skin
A stem cell facial does not put living stem cells on your face. It uses ingredients derived from stem cell cultures, such as growth factors, to support hydration and repair. At JRYN Seomyeon, Dr. Kim decides how they are applied , from a gentle facial to pairing with a device that helps them absorb.
What is a stem cell facial, and what does it do?
A stem cell facial is a clinic facial that applies serums or ampoules made from stem cell culture media or plant stem cell extracts. These contain growth factors, peptides and other signaling molecules that support hydration, a calmer skin barrier and the look of smoother, more elastic skin. Because the skin barrier limits how much penetrates, the facial is often combined with gentle exfoliation, ultrasound such as LDM, or microneedling. Results are a fresher, plumper look rather than a dramatic change, and they last longer when repeated as a course.
At JRYN Seomyeon, Dr. Kim chooses the steps for your skin , especially if it is sensitive or recovering after a laser. A stem cell facial does not have a fixed listed price, so the cost is confirmed at consultation once the steps are planned.

How much is a stem cell facial in Busan?
JRYN does not publish a fixed price for a stem cell facial, because the steps and any added device change the cost. Dr. Kim confirms the plan and total at consultation. For reference, JRYN lists LDM at ₩100,000 per 12-minute session and HydraFacial from ₩110,000.
Does a stem cell facial use real stem cells?
No. It uses ingredients derived from stem cell cultures or plant stem cells, such as growth factors and peptides. No living stem cells are applied or injected.
Does a stem cell facial use needles?
Usually not. A facial is needle-free. If the doctor adds microneedling to help absorption, you will have tiny needle passes and a day or two of redness.
How long do the results last?
A single facial gives a fresher, more hydrated look for days to a couple of weeks. A course, or a regular maintenance routine, gives more lasting improvement in texture and glow.
Is it suitable for sensitive skin?
Often yes, because it focuses on hydration and barrier support. Tell the doctor about any reactions you have had, so the products and steps can be adjusted.
Can I have it after a laser?
Yes. Regenerative facials are often used after laser or peeling to support recovery. The doctor will advise timing so the skin is not irritated.
Stem cell facial or exosome: which should I choose?
Both use regenerative ingredients. A stem cell facial is a gentle, mostly topical facial, while exosome treatment is usually applied with microneedling or laser for a stronger effect. The doctor recommends one based on your skin goals and schedule.
