Juvelook / Collagen Booster
쥬베룩 · also: Juvelook, PDLLA booster, 리들샷
A poly-D,L-lactic acid (PDLLA) micro-particle booster that gradually builds the skin's own collagen for a natural, lit-from-within firmness.
This breaks the skin or carries vascular/systemic risk, so a medical intake is required before treatment.
How it works
PDLLA particles are injected superficially and slowly resorb, prompting steady collagen production over months, while an HA component adds immediate hydration. Popular for pores, fine lines and 'skin quality'.
Intradermal injection · acts at 1–3 mm · deepest layer: Dermis
Where collagen and elastin live. Almost every 'skin quality' treatment is aimed here.
Depths are indicative and vary by device, cartridge, body area and individual.
Intradermal injection
Many small, shallow deposits spread across the treatment area — placed within the skin rather than under it, so nothing changes shape.

FAQ
Juvelook or Rejuran?
Different targets. Rejuran repairs and regenerates skin; Juvelook stimulates new collagen, so it does more for pores, fine scarring and skin thickness — and lasts longer, around 12–18 months. Juvelook takes longer to show, since there's nothing filling on day one.
When will I see it?
The HA component gives immediate hydration, but the collagen effect appears from 4–8 weeks and fully develops at 3–6 months. Photograph yourself at the start.
Can it go under my eyes?
Often excluded, and for good reason — PLA-family stimulators carry a nodule risk in very thin skin. Several Korean menus explicitly exclude under-eye, forehead, lips and nose for the volume formulations.
How many sessions?
Two to three, about four weeks apart, each building on the last.
Price range by care tier
Market ranges for reference — actual quotes depend on the clinic, doctor and area.
Before you compare quotes: what this price is actually per
- Injectables are sold per cc. One cc is a small syringe; most full-face plans need 2–8 cc, so multiply before comparing.
- Sold by the sealed vial. You pay for the whole vial even if less is used.
Per cc for small amounts, per vial in bulk — and the bulk rate is much better. One Seoul list charged ₩250k for 2 cc but ₩890k for an 8 cc vial, so ₩125k versus ₩111k per cc. Note that some volume protocols have a minimum (4 cc and up) and exclude thin-skinned areas entirely.
- The injector tip on some lines
- Numbing cream
Won prices quoted above are from a dated reference price list for one Seoul clinic chain (2026-07-24), used to show the shape of pricing — not a national average, and not a quote. Prices include 10% VAT: the foreign-patient cosmetic VAT refund ended on 31 December 2025.
