General Skincarein Gangnam, Seoul
General care at QD Clinic covers gentle, maintenance-style facials — including hydration, soothing, a brightening scrubber and O2 oxygen care — to keep skin comfortable, clean and well-hydrated. In Gangnam, Seoul, we assess your skin first, then combine the steps that suit it. Most sessions take about 30–50 minutes with little to no downtime. (Results vary by individual.)
Who it’s for
- Skin that needs regular cleansing, hydration or soothing
- Anyone who wants gentle maintenance between treatments
- Dull-looking skin that would benefit from a brightening refresh
- Those who prefer a relaxing option with little to no downtime
The steps are combined to suit your skin on the day; sensitive skin and any active concerns are reviewed at consultation.
How it works
General care combines cleansing and care steps chosen for your skin. Hydration care replenishes moisture; soothing care calms the look of redness or sensitivity; a brightening scrubber uses gentle ultrasonic vibration to help lift away surface debris for a fresher, more radiant look; and O2 oxygen care adds a cooling, hydrating finish. These are gentle, surface-level steps aimed at comfort and maintenance rather than deep resurfacing.
THE MECHANISM, STEP BY STEP
01Cleansing as the base
Each session starts with gentle cleansing, then care steps are chosen for your skin on the day.
02Hydration and soothing
Hydration care replenishes moisture, while soothing care calms the look of redness or sensitivity at the surface.
03Ultrasonic scrubber
A brightening scrubber uses gentle ultrasonic vibration to help lift away surface debris, for a fresher, more radiant look.
04O2 oxygen finish
O2 oxygen care adds a cooling, hydrating finish. These are gentle, surface-level steps aimed at comfort and maintenance rather than deep resurfacing. (Results vary by individual.)

How it compares
These are gentle maintenance and skin-care options. They work differently, so the right choice depends on what your skin needs on the day.
| Comparison | General care | Peel | LDM Regeneration Care |
|---|---|---|---|
| Approach | Cleansing plus hydration, soothing, scrubber or oxygen steps | Cosmetic acids exfoliate surface cells | Dual-frequency ultrasound micro-massage |
| Targets | Cleansing, hydration and maintenance | Dullness, texture and congestion | Soothing, hydration and gentle renewal |
| Sessions | Repeated regularly as maintenance | A short series, then maintenance | Often repeated as a series |
| Sensation | Gentle and relaxing | Mild tingling or warmth during application | Gentle warmth, generally comfortable |
| Downtime | Little to none | Little; light flaking possible | Little to none |
Neither is “better” — they work differently and suit different goals. The right choice is decided after we assess your skin.
