ECM Skin Boosters

ECM Skin Booster contains micronized Human Acellular Dermal Matrix (hADM) in powder form, formulated with authentic extracellular matrix (ECM) components derived from human skin.

“Acellular” refers to a specialised purification process where cells and fat tissues are removed, leaving behind a structural matrix rich in skin-supporting components that help support skin regeneration and repair.

Meet Re20

The Treatment That Gives Your Skin Actual Good Skin.

Re20 isn’t just another skin booster — it is the primary ECM Booster made from real human-derived ECM (hADM). That means it contains the exact components your youthful skin was naturally built with:

  • Collagen (89%)

  • Elastin (3%)

  • GAGs like Hyaluronic Acid (0.4%)

  • Other ECM proteins (7.6%)


RE20 is increasingly used alongside lasers, HIFU, RF, and regenerative treatments by many Korean aesthetic doctors to support overall skin rejuvenation outcomes. By helping to strengthen the skin’s extracellular matrix (ECM), it complements various aesthetic procedures and supports healthier, more resilient-looking skin.


ECM-focused skin boosters have also become a growing part of modern anti-ageing approaches in Korea, often incorporated together with collagen-stimulating devices and regenerative treatments as part of long-term skin quality and skin longevity care.


Key Benefits

  • Improves overall skin texture and smoothness

  • Supports collagen and elastin regeneration for firmer-looking skin

  • Helps refine enlarged pores

  • Enhances skin elasticity and resilience

  • Improves hydration retention and skin radiance

  • Softens fine lines and early signs of ageing

  • Supports skin recovery and repair after environmental damage or aesthetic procedures

  • Helps strengthen thin, weakened, or stressed skin without adding unnatural volume

  • Promotes gradual, natural-looking skin rejuvenation over time


Why Is the ECM Important?

1. It acts as your skin’s structural support system

The extracellular matrix (ECM) helps maintain skin firmness, shape, and support. As the ECM weakens over time, skin may gradually lose elasticity and appear less lifted.


2. It supports collagen and elastin function

Collagen and elastin fibres are anchored within the ECM. When the ECM becomes compromised, the skin’s ability to maintain firmness, elasticity, and smoothness can be affected.


3. It helps deliver hydration and nutrients throughout the skin

The ECM plays a role in transporting water, oxygen, and essential nutrients to skin cells, supporting healthier-looking, more radiant, and resilient skin.


4. It supports the skin’s natural repair processes

The ECM contains important biological components involved in skin recovery and regeneration, helping the skin respond to daily stress and environmental damage.


5. It influences visible skin ageing

Factors such as UV exposure, stress, pollution, and natural ageing can gradually degrade the ECM. As this support structure weakens, common signs of ageing may become more noticeable.


6. Many common skin concerns are linked to ECM decline

Concerns such as fine lines, loss of elasticity, dullness, thinning skin, and rough texture are often associated with changes in the skin’s extracellular matrix over time.


Why ECM Treatment Matters

Most aesthetic treatments focus on the skin’s surface or stimulate collagen production alone. However, true improvement in overall skin quality requires addressing the extracellular matrix (ECM) — the underlying environment that regulates how collagen, elastin, and skin cells function.


This is why ECM-focused skin boosters such as RE20 are considered highly transformative. By supporting and strengthening the skin’s foundational structure, they help improve skin quality at a deeper level, rather than only delivering surface-level or temporary results.



Treatment Steps:

  1. Consultation: A personalized skin assessment to determine your specific needs.

  2. Cleansing & Numbing: The treatment area is cleansed, and a numbing cream is applied for comfort.

  3. Injection of Skin Boosters: Small amounts of hyaluronic acid are injected into the skin’s deeper layers to provide hydration.

  4. Post-Treatment Care: Aftercare instructions are provided to ensure optimal results, including gentle skincare recommendations.

How many sessions are needed?

Most patients typically need:

  • Initial course: 2–3 sessions

  • Interval: Every 3–4 weeks apart

  • Maintenance: 1 session every 4–6 months (depending on skin goals and ageing condition)

For more advanced concerns like dullness, thinning skin, or loss of elasticity, some clinics may recommend a longer initial course for optimal results.


How long is the downtime?

Downtime is generally minimal:

  • Immediately after treatment: Mild redness, small bumps, or slight swelling at injection points

  • Duration: Usually settles within 24–72 hours

  • Makeup: Can typically be applied after 24 hours (if skin is calm)

  • Normal activities: Most patients return to daily routine on the same or next day
