Dry Skin This Winter? Try This

Hello,
This is Dr. Conan, the head doctor at Seoul GU Clinic.

As the seasons change and daily temperature swings become larger, many people experience skin that feels oily on the surface but dry on the inside.

This phenomenon is caused by a lack of moisture and a disrupted oil moisture balance in the skin.

Inner dryness is one of the concerns most commonly mentioned by visitors to our clinic.

Inner Dryness: When the Moisture Deep Inside Evaporates First

After washing your face, your skin feels tight even after applying serum and sunscreen
Makeup does not sit well and appears cakey or flaky

This imbalance, where the surface is oily but the inner layers are dry, is especially common during seasonal transitions.

The skin has a three layer structure: the oil layer, the stratum corneum, and the dermis.
When the dermis loses its ability to retain moisture, inner dryness occurs.

During this season, the lower humidity and dry indoor air cause moisture within the skin to evaporate quickly.

To compensate, the skin overproduces sebum, making the surface appear shiny even though the inside is dehydrated.

Can Inner Dryness Be Solved by Moisturizing More?

Many people ask this question before receiving the Water Glow Injection.

Consistent skincare does help maintain skin hydration and elasticity.

However, most basic skincare products only affect the stratum corneum.

They can make the surface feel moisturized, but the deeper layers often remain dry.

In these cases, Water Glow Injections, which replenish hydration in the dermis itself, go beyond simple moisturization. They improve the deeper structure of the skin.

Effects of the Water Shot

A Treatment That Replenishes the Skin’s Inner Water Reservoir

Water Shot is a procedure that directly infuses hyaluronic acid, a moisture retaining substance, into the dermis layer.

This ingredient activates moisture channels between skin cells and enhances hydration and elasticity in the dermis.

As a result, instead of a superficial glow created by makeup, you achieve a radiance that rises from within.

This produces a natural, luminous complexion that gently reflects light.

Who Should Consider This Treatment?

Water Glow Injection is especially recommended for oily skin with inner dryness.

In this skin type, a lack of inner moisture causes the sebaceous glands to overwork, increasing surface oiliness.

By replenishing moisture in the dermis through Water Glow Injection, sebum production stabilizes and the skin’s oil moisture balance is restored.

You will notice smoother skin texture and better makeup adherence.

Receiving three treatments spaced three to four weeks apart can effectively address chronic inner dryness.

Treatments That Enhance the Effect

If you want longer lasting results while maximizing the benefits of Water Glow Injection:

Before the procedure: LDM Hydration Care or Aquapeel
Removes dead skin cells and sebum
Improves absorption of active ingredients

After the procedure: Rejuran (JuveLook)
Helps maintain long lasting hydration and clarity

These complementary treatments are recommended for best synergy.

Real Glow Comes From Within

Skincare products applied only to the surface cannot fully resolve inner dryness.

To restore and maintain healthy radiance, the moisture structure within the skin must be repaired.

Stabilizing the oil moisture balance is essential to achieving a truly luminous complexion.

If you want a glow without tightness or inner dehydration, consider starting your care with the Water Glow Injection.
