ACRS (Autologous Cytokine-Rich Serum Therapy) is an advanced cosmetic treatment, also known as inflammation immunotherapy, that rejuvenates aging or weakened skin by directly injecting cytokine-rich serum derived from your own blood.
Since it uses your own blood, it is considered a very safe treatment.
Treatment Areas
Face
Skin issues (rosacea, atopic dermatitis), Anti-aging care (spots, wrinkles, pores)
Scalp
Hair growth promotion
Vagina
Moisturization, pain during intercourse, and recurrent vaginal infections such as Candida
Cytokines are proteins that promote cell differentiation, regeneration, and the repair of damaged tissues.
They stimulate the production of collagen in the skin, helping to repair tissue affected by aging, such as wrinkles and dullness, and restore a youthful appearance.
PRP therapy involves injecting the separated plasma layer directly into the skin.
In ACRS (Autologous Cytokine-Rich Serum Therapy), the separated plasma is cultured for about 3 hours, resulting in a concentration of growth factors and anti-inflammatory cytokines several to tens of times higher than PRP. This allows for potentially greater effects.
It is recommended to administer the prepared serum in two sessions. However, if it is difficult to visit within 3 to 6 months, it can be administered in a single session.
Four Major Reasons to Choose ACRS Therapy
①Promotes Tissue Regeneration and Skin Activation with Growth Factors
Growth factors act on skin cells to stimulate the production of collagen, elastin, and other components essential for healthy, rejuvenated skin, thereby activating and revitalizing the skin.
At our clinic, we use proprietary processing techniques to extract growth factors and cytokines at high concentrations.
This therapy is especially recommended for those who have not seen improvements or noticeable effects with other treatments.
②Personalized, Planned Treatment for Each Individual
Since the serum is injected gradually while monitoring your condition with the doctor, the treatment is fully customized from the moment your blood is drawn, ensuring a completely tailored approach.
③Low Risk Since It Uses Your Own Blood
Because the treatment uses your own blood, the risk of allergies or infections is minimal, making it a procedure that is gentle on the body.
④More Natural Results Compared to Other Injectable Treatments
By restoring the skin’s natural firmness and elasticity, ACRS therapy provides a more natural appearance compared to other injectable procedures.
Since this procedure does not involve a scalpel, the downtime is relatively short.
Additionally, any symptoms that may occur during the downtime are generally mild, making it a treatment that can be undertaken with ease.
Swelling and Redness：Mild redness may persist for several days to a few weeks.
It can be easily concealed with foundation or concealer.
Pain：Some discomfort may be felt for a few days.
It usually subsides over time, but if strong pain occurs, apply a cold compress to the treated area. Seek immediate medical attention if the pain is unbearable.
Bruising：Bruising may appear for a few weeks after the procedure
Like swelling and redness, it can generally be covered with makeup.
If bruising does not improve over time, consult your doctor.

②Before Blood Collection and After Treatment
