Oxygen Dome Treatment & Facial in Korean Skin Clinic

While in Seoul and following my HIFU and Nabota experience, we headed over to “System Skin Care” for a Radio Frequency Facial & Oxygen Dome Treatment.

There are skin clinics all over Seoul Korea. It’s insane how many locations there are for facial pampering and this is just one I pulled up.

Why Radio Frequency?

Tightens your skin by heating deep layers in your skin to stimulate collagen growth. Studies have found that maintaining a temperature over 115°F (46°C) for over 3 minutes causes your body to release heat-shock proteins, which in turn build collagen strengthening skin thickness which reduces wrinkles found in thinner skin.

Collagen is incredibly helpful in reducing the effects of aging and promoting new health cell growth.

Oxygen Dome Facial

This bubble-like oxygen dome is connected to a machine that converts outside air into pure oxygen at a 90%-concentration level. The device also introduces anions and negative ions into the oxygen stream. *Anions (a.k.a. negative ions or “air vitamins”) are used in certain types of air purifiers to free inside spaces of airborne allergens, pollens, bacteria, and more. When this technology is used in the oxygen dome, anions activate cell renewal and boost the immune system.

For 15 to 20 minutes, the dome will remain over your face and provide an in-depth exposure to the oxygenated air and other beneficial substances. During this step, you will inhale purified air which helps improve circulation and increase energy levels.
