Actor Yoon Seung-ah shared recent news about her efforts in self-care.
On the 11th, a video titled "Revealing the secret to a youthful appearance. big.reveal. (years using empties, dermatology care, M Face, swelling management, scalp and body care items)" was uploaded to the "Seunga-ro-un" channel.
That day Yoon Seung-ah explained, "I have already turned 44. These days, as I have become a parent, I think I have become more interested. Well, you probably know. I also don't go to the dermatologist often. But I'm not someone who doesn't do daily care at all, and now I feel that that alone might be a bit difficult, so I thought it would be good to share my management know-how, so I turned on the camera."
She said, "First, the home care I do at home is that I still always and consistently do daily masks. If it's too dry, I do the mask twice. Once in the morning, once at night. You can do it while on your phone or wear it while vacuuming in the morning. So I do daily masks."
She continued, "Recently there's EMS at dermatology clinics called M Face, you know, the (muscle) exercise. They came out for the face. Many people around me said it was really good. I had slight worries about wrinkles at the corners of my mouth and nasolabial folds. So I tried it once this time. I did it just once, but I feel like my face is somehow getting better."
Yoon Seung-ah said, "I've had M Face twice now. There is a heat sensation and levels from 1 to 10. I'm very sensitive, so I get level 3. Actually you can go higher. You adapt as you receive it. After about two sessions, I understood it as a treatment that includes high-frequency, and I felt heat on my face. When I got home I did an aloe pack and felt the heat for about three days. But it calmed down, so I think it's fine, and they said you must get it about five times to see an effect, so I'm willing to get it. They recommended usually once a week, but I space it out a bit more and keep up daily care while continuing to go to the aesthetic clinic I usually attend."
She added, "I've been going to an aesthetic clinic for several years. It really helped when I was pregnant. It improves circulation a lot and shapes the face. Sometimes in comments people say I look thinner, but actually my body weight didn't drop. But since they shape the face line, I've gone there for quite a long time. I get facial and full-body treatments, so the frequency was M Face about once every two weeks, and massages—line is really important, right? If there's a shoot in a month, I go every week. Once a week without fail. If I have a bit more leeway? If I don't have to work and I don't have life's leeway, I'm too busy as a mom. Then I go about once or twice a month. What I felt about aesthetic care is that going once every six months has no effect; it has to be continuous. If you lift the line once and then go six months later, it means nothing. All care must be consistent."
She went on, "These days swelling before and after pregnancy is very severe. Especially the lower body. My calves aren't normally the type to swell, but they swell a lot, so I try to do half-body baths to manage swelling. I don't have time to do it often, but the difference between doing it and not doing it is huge. After a half-body bath, scrubbing and doing a full-body massage removes dead skin and feels good," adding, "After doing this there is gua sha; you can apply skin lotion and let it absorb while doing it, and when my body is really bad I use jojoba oil to shape the shoulder line and loosen behind the calves, and it feels refreshing. The swelling goes down quickly. Circulation is definitely really important."
Next, on scalp care Yoon Seung-ah said, "My scalp is really very dry and sensitive. Actually all my skin is like that, and I use two shampoos. Because it's definitely dry, dandruff forms, so I use them, and my scalp is very sensitive. The treatment is also a scalp treatment. It relieves hair loss symptoms. It's the time when hair loss happens, and I also felt my crown area hadn't fully recovered after childbirth. I alternate using this once and a hair treatment. When I wake up and my condition isn't good, my scalp really hurts. If it's very bad I leave something on my scalp and brush my teeth or follow a routine so it absorbs well."
On lip care she said, "There are lip balms that, if used continuously, actually make lips chapped and peel; I find those are usually the ones with color. I use colorless lip balm and a system of applying lip color. I buy as many lip balms as possible and leave them visible in various places; that's the best. I always lose them," she lamented.
Finally, naming beauty devices as part of her care, she emphasized, "The most dramatic effect I saw was from Kim Moo Yul. In his case, if you use it daily your skin really glows. I used calming care and absorption care a lot, and I don't think I would use the treatment mode. For absorption or daily routine things, I do them every two or three days rather than daily. Because my skin is so sensitive it does irritate. But it's much better to do it than not, and it's good to try it yourself and use what suits your skin."
She added, "I tried everything once together. I did M Face, went to aesthetic clinics, tried all devices, and I experienced side effects. I had breakouts. Consistency is important, but if you do everything at once in a concentrated way, the skin can be irritated no matter how healthy it is, so it's better to space things out," and she asked for help, saying, "Lately I'm concerned about wrinkles around the eyes. Is there a device that smooths eye wrinkles? I'll try harder to manage them. Please recommend supplements. It would be nice if you could suggest supplements that women in their mid-40s should take."
