To be honest, when I was in my 20s, I rarely wore sunscreen because it was a hassle. Back then, I got a lot of compliments on my skin even without taking care of it, so I was complacent. Now that I’ve passed my mid-30s and even had a child, a large, dark dark spot started appearing on the side of my cheek last year. At first, since I could cover it with concealer to some extent, I wondered if I really needed to go to a hospital, so I just left it alone. However, as time went by, the color seemed to get darker and the size more distinct, so now it doesn't even cover well with makeup anymore. Every time I looked in the mirror, all I could see was that dark spot, so my stress started to build. So, I decided to get treatment before it was too late and started looking for a dermatology clinic in Dongdaemun near my home, but there weren't really any reviews saying they were good at removing dark spots. Then, a close friend told me to check out Terrace Clinic in Seodaemun-gu, saying it was incredibly famous for dark spot removal, so I went there. From the initial consultation, the director personally examined my skin condition meticulously, and accurately checked the depth of the dark spot using a skin diagnostic device. Regarding the condition of my dark spot... They explained everything in detail, which made me trust them.
The dermatology clinic I usually go to had the consultation manager handle everything, and the director only performed the procedures.
Anyway, I heard the Repot laser was good, so I got the treatment and wore Duoderm bandages for a month.
They checked my progress every 2 and 4 weeks, and since the system was just about scheduling appointments, it wasn't too much of a hassle.
Then, a month later, it was time to remove the Duoderm... that was honestly the most nerve-wracking moment for me.
Fortunately, the dark spot fell off cleanly with a snap, and I felt such a huge relief at that moment, haha.
Other people say dark spots tend to recur easily, but maybe because they took such thorough care of me, my skin is still looking nice and clear even after more than three months.
I wrote this review post to show off and share some information.

OMG, wow
I also went to a factory-style dermatology clinic near my house without knowing anything because of my lentigines, and they recurred twice ㅠㅠ….. I didn't know about recurrence issues.
I might have ended up that way too if it weren't for my sister's recommendation ㅠㅠ.. Try switching dermatologists!
Oh, I also had a different procedure done at Terrace Clinic, and I thought the director was really meticulous!
I think the fact that the director personally handles everything from consultation to the procedure and aftercare makes a big difference in the results.
I'd love to know the price too!!
I'll send you a private message.
I still haven't found a dermatologist in Dongdaemun-gu that I'm completely satisfied with either..
It's not as far as you might think, so give it a try! You'll understand why it's worth it.
