What Is the Korean Herbal Skin Treatment?
The Korean Herbal Skin Treatment combines the potent bioactive compounds of traditional Korean medicinal herbs — ginseng, deer antler extract (녹용), and adaptogenic botanicals — with MTS (Microneedling Transdermal System) micro-channel delivery, maximizing penetration of herbal actives into the dermis for skin detoxification, collagen stimulation, and deep nourishment.
This treatment uniquely bridges traditional Korean medicine and modern aesthetic dermatology, offering skin benefits that neither pure MTS nor topical herbal application alone can achieve.
- Korean medicinal herbs: ginseng, deer antler (녹용)
- MTS micro-channel delivery for deep dermal absorption

Why Choose Korean Herbal Skin Treatment at K-Medi?
Ginseng (인삼) contains ginsenosides — one of the most extensively researched natural bioactive compounds — with documented effects on collagen synthesis, antioxidant activity, and cellular repair. Deer antler extract (녹용) provides IGF-1 precursors, growth factors, and collagen peptides with regenerative properties used in Korean medicine for over 2,000 years. MTS delivery bypasses the stratum corneum barrier, enabling dermal penetration of actives that remain on the skin surface with standard topical application.
- Ginseng ginsenosides — clinically researched collagen stimulators
- MTS delivery — reaches the dermis, not just the surface
- 2,000 years of Korean medical refinement in a single treatment
How Korean Herbal Skin Treatment Works
The session begins with a constitution-based assessment by the Korean Medicine doctor, who selects the herbal complex formulation most aligned with your skin condition and constitutional type. The skin is cleansed and prepared, then MTS micro-channels are created across treatment areas — creating temporary micro-pathways in the stratum corneum.
The herbal complex is immediately applied over the micro-channels, maximizing absorption before they close (within 30–60 minutes). A calming herbal masque is then applied for 20 minutes to seal, nourish, and reduce post-MTS redness. The skin appears fresh and glowing immediately, with progressive collagen-stimulation effects continuing over 4–6 weeks.
