Sun-damaged Skin

Description

Sun-damaged skin—also known as photoaging, photodamage, or solar damage—refers to the visible wrinkles, dark spots, rough texture, and uneven tone that develop from years of exposure to the sun’s harmful ultraviolet (UV) rays. Signs of photo-aged skin include fine lines, deep creases, sagging, and patchy blotches sometimes called sun spots, age spots, or liver spots. The long-term effects of UV exposure break down the skin’s collagen and elastin, leading to premature aging and a tired, weathered appearance. Advanced sun damage may also cause rough precancerous patches called actinic keratosis (solar keratosis) and deeper yellowish thickening known as actinic elastosis (solar elastosis). Treating sun-damaged skin not only helps reverse wrinkles and blotches but also restores a smoother, younger-looking complexion—making it a top concern for those considering advanced skin rejuvenation treatments in Korea.

Enquiries go directly to the clinic

Free consultation from the clinic

Evita Clinic in Apgujeong, Seoul offers a focused range of body contouring, breast, and gender-affirming surgeries with coordinated peri-operative and post-operative care for international patients. Gynecomastia Gynecomastia Surgery treats enlarged male breast tissue by removing gland and/or fat to create a flatter, more masculine chest. The plan is tailored to the amount of tissue and skin laxity to improve chest contour and nipple position. Liposuction (Body & Face) Liposuction removes localized fat deposits through small incisions using a suction cannula to refine body contours. It is used for shaping rather than weight loss, and results depend on skin quality and post-op compression. Abdomen Liposuction targets fat across the upper and lower abdomen to improve waistline definition. It is often chosen when skin elasticity is good and the main concern is stubborn fat. Upper Arms Liposuction reduces fat along the upper arm to create a slimmer arm profile. It can be combined with an arm lift when loose skin is the primary issue. Thigh & Hip Liposuction reshapes the outer hips and/or thighs to improve lower-body proportion. It is used to smooth bulges and enhance contour in clothing. Face & Neck Liposuction reduces submental (under-chin) or neck fat to sharpen the jawline and neck angle. It is selected when fullness is due to fat rather than significant skin laxity. Abdomen Tummy Tuck removes excess abdominal skin and tightens the abdominal wall to create a flatter, firmer midsection. It is often chosen after weight changes or pregnancy when loose skin does not respond to exercise. Arms Arm Lift removes excess skin and tissue from the upper arms to address sagging and improve arm shape. Incision placement and scar length depend on how much skin needs to be removed. Thighs & Hips Thigh Lift removes excess skin from the thighs to improve firmness and reduce rubbing or sagging. The surgical approach is selected based on whether the concern is mainly inner thigh, outer thigh, or both. Breast Surgery Breast Augmentation increases breast volume using implants to enhance size and shape. Implant type and placement are selected based on anatomy, goals, and desired profile. Breast Lift elevates and reshapes the breasts by addressing droop and repositioning the nipple-areola complex. It can be combined with augmentation or reduction depending on volume goals. Breast Reduction reduces breast size by removing excess tissue and reshaping the breast for improved proportion and comfort. It can help relieve physical symptoms associated with heavy breasts, such as shoulder and back strain. Gender-Affirming Chest Surgery (Top Surgery) FTM Top Surgery creates a flatter chest contour by removing breast tissue and resizing/repositioning the nipple-areola complex when needed. Technique choice depends on chest size, skin elasticity, and scar preference. MTF Top Surgery increases breast volume to create a more traditionally feminine chest shape, most commonly using implants. Planning focuses on implant selection, pocket placement, and symmetry. Other Treatments Varicose Vein Treatment addresses enlarged, visible veins to improve appearance and reduce symptoms such as heaviness or aching. Treatment method is selected based on vein size, location, and ultrasound evaluation. Hyperhidrosis Treatment targets excessive sweating to improve daily comfort and reduce clothing or social inconvenience. Options are chosen based on the affected area (such as underarms) and severity. Fat Grafting transfers purified fat from one area of the body to add volume or smooth contours in another area. It is commonly used for subtle shaping and requires adequate donor fat. Face Contouring focuses on reshaping facial proportions to create a more balanced outline and profile. Treatment planning is based on facial structure and desired changes to overall harmony.
