Let’s solve it with pigment treatment, photo, or Starwalker.


Hello, this is Hev Dermatology.

This post was written in accordance with the Medical Service Act and was created by a medical institution operated by a board-certified dermatologist at Hev Clinic, with the consent of the patient who received treatment.
It is not intended to emphasize treatment effects or personal treatment experiences, but rather to provide general information about dermatology and aesthetic procedures.
The photos used in this post meet the following conditions:

  • The same individual appears in both the before and after photos.
  • The dates when the photos were taken before and after treatment are specified.
  • The photos were taken under the same conditions.

This post provides various medical information, including possible side effects that may occur from the procedure. In accordance with Article 56, Paragraph 2, Subparagraph 7 of the Medical Service Act, diagnoses and treatment results may vary depending on the individual, and both effects and side effects may differ from person to person.
※ This article was written directly by the director of Hev Clinic for the purpose of providing information about dermatologic and aesthetic procedures.

Before treatment: 2023.04.06 – After treatment: 2024.07.19

These photos were posted with consent and are original, unretouched images of the same individual, taken in the same location.

Results may vary depending on the individual. Please ensure thorough consultation before treatment regarding possible side effects such as pigmentation, bruising, or swelling.


Not only pigmentation treatment, but the results before and after depend on three key factors:

  1. Careful diagnosis
  2. Accurate procedure
  3. Proper post-care guidance

Many people ask which laser we use.

In pigmentation treatment, I use Fotona StarWalker.

The name may sound unfamiliar, but this is one of the most commonly used pigmentation lasers in dermatology clinics for treating melasma, freckles, stubborn pigmentation, and birthmarks.

It’s so reputable that some patients from the Mole Patient Association specifically seek clinics with Fotona lasers, traveling from places like Cheongna or Ilsan.

Recently, people also ask about the Lipot laser. Both the Lipot laser and the Fotona laser use 532nm wavelength, so the principle and method for removing dark spots are essentially the same.

The difference is:

  • Lipot laser targets only the areas recognized by the machine.
  • Fotona laser allows me, the physician, to manually select and adjust the areas to be treated.

Thank you.
