Hello.
I am Dr. Kim Dong-young, Director of Cleor Clinic Hongdae Branch.
Have you ever felt concerned because your skin looked dull and uneven just a few days before an important event, such as a wedding, a function, or a photo shoot?
"I feel uncomfortable with intensive procedures right before an important event.
I wish there were a care treatment that could refine my skin's surface condition without any downtime."
Skin surface condition is an area influenced by the state of dead skin cells, moisture retention, and surface blood flow and lymphatic circulation.
When this condition declines, makeup tends to look cakey, and the skin tone can appear dull.
Hongdae Gold Therapy is designed to soothe the skin and refine its surface condition by combining gold-based care steps.
Today, I will explain the steps involved in Hongdae Gold Therapy and how the O2toDerm oxygen combination line differs.
What is Hongdae Gold Therapy?
👉 Hongdae Gold Therapy is a non-invasive surface condition care treatment that combines 5 steps: Gold Collagen Gel, Circulation Massage, Gold Foil Application, Cream Rubbing, and Gold Modeling Pack. The O2toDerm oxygen combination line additionally incorporates oxygen, ampoule, and dome care.
Gold is an inert metal component stable in oxidation-reduction, and it has been used in traditional beauty for surface soothing and condition refinement.
Hypotheses regarding the neutralization of active oxygen and the stimulation of collagen synthesis have been reported, and it is classified as an auxiliary care category focused on surface soothing and skin texture refinement.
However, it is important to understand in advance that since there is not enough large-scale clinical data on the medical effects of gold care itself, it is better viewed as an auxiliary care treatment for surface condition refinement rather than a primary medical procedure.

Hongdae Gold Therapy Step-by-Step Composition
👉 Hongdae Gold Therapy is a care structure that combines 5 steps in order: Gold Collagen Gel, Circulation Massage, Gold Foil Application, Cream Rubbing, and Gold Modeling Pack.
① Gold Collagen Gel
This is the step where a gel containing gold and collagen is applied to the surface.
It operates as a line that aids in surface soothing and moisturizing with collagen components.
② Circulation Massage
This is a massage step that stimulates surface lymphatic circulation and blood flow.
It helps distribute the components evenly across the surface and is also focused on temporarily relieving surface puffiness.
③ Gold Foil Application
This is the step where foil containing gold is applied to the skin surface and left on for a certain period.
When the foil temporarily covers the surface, it creates an environment where the applied components can remain stably on the skin.
④ Cream Rubbing
This is an additional massage step using cream.
It finishes the treatment by ensuring the components are evenly distributed on the surface and strengthens the moisture environment.
⑤ Gold Modeling Pack
This is the final step where a modeling pack containing gold is applied to the surface and left to harden for a certain period.
It is operated as a step to finalize surface soothing, moisture retention, and skin texture refinement.
O2toDerm Oxygen Combination (O2 Gold Therapy)
O2toDerm is an oxygen device from the Korean company Trisys, based on PSAT (Pressure Swing Adsorption Technology).
Because it filters nitrogen from the air and sprays over 90% pure oxygen along with about 3 million anions, the O2 Gold Therapy line includes O2toDerm Vitality Ampoule and dome care in addition to the 5 gold steps.
Effects and Advantages of Hongdae Gold Therapy
👉 The core advantages of Hongdae Gold Therapy can be summarized into three points: non-invasive care with no downtime, a 5-step multi-layered structure, and the option to add oxygen.
First, it is a non-invasive care treatment with no downtime.
Since it is a line that proceeds mainly through surface application and massage rather than procedures that cause epidermal damage, it is known for allowing makeup and daily activities immediately after the treatment.
Next, it features a 5-step multi-layered structure.
Gold Collagen Gel, Circulation Massage, Foil Application, Cream Rubbing, and Modeling Pack are performed in sequence, operating as a line that provides step-by-step surface soothing, moisturizing, and skin texture refinement.
Finally, you can choose the oxygen combination option.
The O2 Gold Therapy line is recommended for those who want to incorporate an oxygen and anion environment, as it adds O2toDerm Vitality Ampoule and dome care to the 5 gold steps.
Hongdae Gold Therapy Lineup
👉 At the Hongdae branch, we operate Gold Therapy in both a standalone line and an O2toDerm combination line, with 1-session and 5-session options.
Gold Therapy is not a line that brings about major changes in a single session, but rather a composition for refining surface condition before a short-term schedule or achieving gradual changes through cumulative care.
We will review the line that suits your schedule and skin condition during the pre-treatment consultation.
Who is Hongdae Gold Therapy for?
Those who need to refine their condition before important events like weddings, functions, or photo shoots
Those who prefer non-invasive care with no downtime
Those who want to achieve both surface texture refinement and moisture environment recovery

Those who want to see gradual condition changes through cumulative care
Those who want to include oxygen combination care
Side Effects and Things to Know Before Hongdae Gold Therapy
👉 Hongdae Gold Therapy is an auxiliary care line used for surface condition refinement rather than a medical procedure.
Since there is not enough large-scale clinical data on the medical effects of gold care itself, it is a line focused on surface condition refinement and cumulative changes rather than immediate, dramatic results.
In very sensitive skin, temporary irritation or mild redness may occur due to the applied components, which is reported to subside naturally shortly after the procedure in most cases.
For those with a history of metal allergies, safety verification is required during the pre-treatment consultation, and since the O2toDerm combination line uses oxygen equipment, it is also recommended that those with respiratory diseases or sensitive mucous membranes discuss this during the pre-treatment consultation.
Please inform us in advance as the procedure may be restricted in the following cases:
If you are pregnant or breastfeeding
If there is active inflammation, herpes, or infection in the treatment area
If you have a history of metal allergies
If you have recently received strong peeling or high-energy procedures in the treatment area
If you have a history of allergies to the ingredients used
⚠️ Precautions Before and After Hongdae Gold Therapy
👉 For Hongdae Gold Therapy, management before and after the procedure affects the maintenance of surface condition.

❓ Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)
Q. Is Hongdae Gold Therapy a medical procedure?
It is a line closer to the auxiliary care category used for surface condition refinement.
Since there is not enough large-scale clinical data on the medical effects of gold components, it is a line used for condition care before schedules like weddings, functions, or photo shoots rather than a primary medical procedure.
Q. How is Hongdae Gold Therapy different from O2 Gold Therapy?
Gold Therapy is a standalone 5-step gold care treatment, while O2 Gold Therapy is a composition that additionally combines O2toDerm Vitality Ampoule and dome care to the 5 gold steps.
O2toDerm is a device from the Korean company Trisys that sprays 90%+ pure oxygen and anions using PSAT technology, so it is recommended for those who want to incorporate an oxygen-combined environment.
Q. When can I see the effects of Hongdae Gold Therapy?
It is a line where surface condition refinement and moisture changes are reported immediately after the procedure.
However, as this is a different area from the manifestation of medical procedure effects, it is a line focused on short-term condition refinement before an event.
Q. Can I wear makeup immediately after receiving Hongdae Gold Therapy?
As it is a non-invasive care treatment, makeup and daily activities are possible immediately after the procedure.
Q. Are there cases where I cannot receive Hongdae Gold Therapy?
The procedure may be restricted if you are pregnant or breastfeeding, have a history of metal allergies, have active inflammation or infection in the treatment area, or have recently received strong peeling or high-energy procedures.
We will review your condition together during the pre-treatment consultation.
Q. How often should I receive Hongdae Gold Therapy?
It varies depending on skin condition and schedule, but it is a composition where condition changes stabilize through cumulative progress, which is why a 5-session option is offered.
We will organize the recommended interval during the pre-treatment consultation.
Q. Can I receive Hongdae Gold Therapy along with other procedures?
As it is a non-invasive auxiliary care treatment, it is sometimes combined after other procedures for recovery support.
Combinations with strong peeling or high-energy procedures will be reviewed during the pre-treatment consultation.
Skin surface condition is an area influenced by the state of dead skin cells, moisture retention, and surface blood flow and lymphatic circulation.
When this condition declines, an environment is created where the surface does not refine well even with the same care, which is why surface care lines have become established before important events.
Hongdae Gold Therapy is a non-invasive surface condition care treatment that combines 5 steps: Gold Collagen Gel, Circulation Massage, Gold Foil Application, Cream Rubbing, and Gold Modeling Pack, and you can also choose the O2toDerm oxygen combination option.
It is good to understand that gold care itself is a line in the position of auxiliary care used for surface condition refinement rather than a medical procedure.
We will personally check the line composition that suits your schedule and skin condition during the consultation.
