Laser Mirajet, CureJet, SkinJet

Microjet (SkinJet, CureJet) is a needle-free procedure — how is it injected?

SkinJet and CureJet are procedures that deliver Skin Booster ingredients to the skin without a needle by spraying medication in the form of microjets using instantaneous strong pressure generated by a machine.

How Do SkinJet and CureJet Work?

Microjet (SkinJet, CureJet, Mirajet) is a needle-free jet method that uses instantaneously generated pressure to spray medication into the skin. Explosive pressure is generated instantaneously by laser, gas pressure, solenoid pressure, etc., and this physical force pushes the medication inside the syringe into a very fine 'microjet' form, allowing it to penetrate into the skin.

In other words, instead of inserting a needle to deliver the medication, the pressure created by the laser shoots the medication in the form of a fine stream of liquid. This allows drug delivery without needle penetration and can be an option for those who are concerned about needles.

What Medications (Boosters) Can Be Injected?

Microjet can be used to deliver various medications for regeneration and skin texture improvement, including Skin Boosters. It mainly uses Skin Booster types that help collagen production, such as JUVELOOK, Olidia, and GOURI, and its potential for delivering various medications in microjet form, such as Re2O® (hADM, human-derived collagen series) and HILO WAVE® ID, is expanding.

However, which medication is actually used for which purpose depends on the Dermatologist's judgment. Therefore, rather than deciding on your own, it is advisable to receive guidance through a consultation to choose the medication that suits your individual skin concerns. At Heal House, we recommend an appropriate combination after a consultation based on your skin condition.


Do the Micro-Holes Stimulate Collagen?

When Microjet (SkinJet, CureJet, Mirajet) sprays medication, the tiny pathways (microholes) created on the skin surface can themselves induce a regenerative response. The concept is that the microchannels formed as the laser jet delivers the medication into the skin stimulate the skin's natural healing response, which may promote collagen production. Therefore, compared to injecting the same Skin Booster manually with a needle, when it is injected using Microjet, you may feel that your skin's elasticity and texture improve somewhat more quickly after the procedure.

In other words, Microjet (SkinJet, CureJet, Mirajet) is introduced as having the characteristic of offering two effects together: 'drug delivery' and 'regeneration induction through micro-stimulation.' However, the degree of collagen stimulation varies depending on the medication used, procedure intensity, and individual skin condition, so it is difficult to state a uniform figure.


Is It More Precise Than Manual Injection?

Microjet (SkinJet, CureJet, Mirajet) sprays medication uniformly using gas pressure, so it has advantages in terms of consistency of injection depth and distribution. While manual injection can vary in depth and amount depending on the practitioner's hand sensation and skill, the Microjet method delivers medication under set conditions, making it advantageous for even application over a wide area.

Another advantage of Microjet is that it allows meticulous treatment in sensitive and curved areas that are difficult to inject manually, such as the eye area, eyelids, nasal bridge, and corners of the mouth.

However, the term 'more precise' does not mean it is superior to manual injection in all situations. There are also cases where manual injection is more suitable, such as when a precise amount needs to be injected into a localized area. Which method is appropriate for your treatment goal depends on the area and purpose, so it is advisable to decide through a consultation.


What Are the Main Uses?

It is used when you want to inject Skin Booster evenly over a wide area of the skin, when you want to inject into the most superficial layer of the skin, and in areas that are curved and have thin skin where manual injection of Skin Booster is difficult, such as the eye area, corners of the mouth, around the nose, and between the eyebrows.

In addition, Microjet is actively used for the treatment of stretch marks and depressed scars, and it shows excellent treatment effects by creating a synergistic effect with traditional laser treatments.
