Barrier Repair Treatment Cost in Korea – Glass Skin Treatment (K-Beauty Inspired)

Barrier Repair Treatments are a fundamental part of K-Beauty’s glass skin philosophy, focusing on restoring the skin’s moisture barrier to promote hydration, elasticity, and glow. These treatments use ceramides, peptides, panthenol, and centella asiatica to soothe irritation, reduce redness, and prevent transepidermal water loss. Ideal after exfoliating facials or aesthetic procedures, barrier repair is key to healthy, radiant skin.
