"This cream contains 3 years of research." "This treatment protocol went through 200 clinical trials."
Where does K-Beauty and K-Medical aesthetics' confidence come from? From science.
Korea approaches beauty not with intuition but with science. Speaks not with marketing but with data. Proves not with experience but with clinical trials.
This is why the world trusts Korea.
Center of Dermatological Research
K-Beauty starts in the laboratory

"Korea ranks 3rd globally in dermatology research paper publications after USA and Japan" - PubMed data
Application of Biotechnology
Meeting of natural and cutting-edge
Korean beauty's strength: Biotechnology
Magic of Fermentation: Reduced molecule size for increased skin absorption, increased active ingredient concentration, reduced irritation
Representative Fermented Ingredients: Galactomyces ferment filtrate (tone improvement), Bifida ferment lysate (barrier strengthening), Lactobacillus ferment (moisturizing)
Innovation in Herbal Fermentation: Ginseng ferment extract, rice ferment filtrate, green tea fermentation
Stem Cell Technology: Plant stem cell culture, growth factor extraction, exosome isolation technology
Combination of Advanced Equipment and AI
Reading your skin in numbers
Korean dermatology now utilizes AI and big data.
AI Skin Diagnosis: Skin tone, pigmentation, pore size, wrinkle depth, skin moisture, elasticity, sensitivity analysis
AI's Role: Data collection -> Analysis -> Diagnosis -> Prescription -> Prediction
Equipment Evolution: Visual -> Wood's lamp -> Skin microscope -> 3D scanning -> AI integrated diagnosis system
Big Data Utilization: 1 million+ patient data accumulated, treatment effectiveness statistical analysis, optimal protocols by skin type
Rigorous Clinical Trials
No launch without proven efficacy
Korean cosmetics and treatments undergo thorough verification.
Cosmetics Clinical Trials (MFDS Standards)
Whitening products: 8-week clinical, 20+ subjects, pigmentation improvement proof required
Anti-wrinkle: 12-week clinical, 20+ subjects, wrinkle depth measurement required
Treatment Protocol Research: Literature review -> Pilot test -> Data collection -> Protocol establishment -> Large-scale application -> Paper publication
Annals of Dermatology 2025: HIFU + injection combination treatment effectiveness analysis, 87% patient satisfaction
Global Collaboration Network
Researching with the world
Korean beauty research is international.

R&D Investment Status
Beauty created by science
This is how K-Beauty convinced the world
"Why does it work?" -> **"Look at this data"**
"Is it safe?" -> **"Look at these clinical results"**
"Can I trust it?" -> **"Read this paper"**
Korea transformed beauty **from emotion to science**. The result: World-recognized effectiveness, data-proven safety, sustainable innovation. Your beauty also becomes science now. In Korea.
