Etosome Gold PTT

Acne treatment that targets sebaceous glands with gold nanoparticles and light.

About Procedure

About Etosome Gold PTT

Etosome Gold PTT is a photothermal therapy (PTT) in which gold nanoparticles are delivered into sebaceous glands and pores, then a laser is applied so the particles convert absorbed light into heat, targeting sebaceous glands and acne bacteria.

By directly targeting the source of excess oil, it helps reduce acne inflammation and recurrence, with relatively little downtime.

SIA Clinic Gangnam offers Etosome Gold PTT in 1- or 5-session options, together with Cryo, LED and sheet mask soothing care.
