Calecim is a professional recovery serum made from proteins secreted by red deer umbilical cord lining cells — applied to the skin straight after a laser or microneedling treatment, while it is most receptive. If you're researching Calecim in Korea, here's what matters: at Lalian Cheongdam in Seoul, it is chosen as part of a treatment plan by Dr. Jiyoun Kang, matched to the procedure it follows rather than added by default. It sits within Lalian's skin boosters & hydration menu.

Single vs. combination

HOW IT WORKS
The Mechanism
Most skin boosters are injected.
Calecim works through the skin.
Calecim is developed by CellResearch Corporation, a Singapore biotechnology company. Its core ingredient, PTT-6, is a complex of growth factors, cytokines and proteins secreted by cells from red deer umbilical cord lining — the signals skin uses to calm and repair itself.
After microneedling or a laser treatment, the skin is briefly open and working hardest to heal. Calecim is applied in that window, so these repair signals reach the skin when it needs them most — supporting a calmer, steadier recovery from the procedure it is paired with.
THE LALIAN DIFFERENCE
Why Lalian for calecim
01
Every Session, Led by Dr. Kang
The procedure Calecim follows is where results are decided. At Lalian, Dr. Jiyoun Kang performs that treatment herself and decides whether Calecim belongs in your recovery — so the serum is part of a plan built around your skin, not a routine add-on.
02
TIMING IS THE TREATMENT
Calecim does the most when it reaches skin that is actively repairing. It is applied immediately after the procedure, while the skin is most receptive, and paired with clear aftercare so the effect carries into the days that follow.
03
RECOVERY PLANNED AROUND YOUR TRIP
Many international patients have only a few days in Seoul. Dr. Jiyoun Kang weighs the procedure, your skin's sensitivity and your flight date together, and uses Calecim where a smoother recovery window matters most.
THE LALIAN DIFFERENCE
Calecim Or Exosome?
Calecim and exosome treatments are both applied after microneedling or laser to support skin recovery — the two are most often compared against each other.
Calecim is a specific formula built on PTT-6 from red deer umbilical cord lining cells; exosome treatments use a different source and formulation. Which one suits you depends on your skin and the procedure it follows, and Dr. Kang decides during consultation.

WHEN IT'S USED
Best Suited For
Calecim is used at the points where the skin is working hardest to recover — Dr. Jiyoun Kang decides whether it fits your treatment plan.
01
AFTER RF MICRONEEDLING
Supports recovery after microneedling such as Potenza, when fresh micro-channels let the skin take in what is applied.
02
AFTER LASER & LIGHT TREATMENTS
Helps settle the warmth and redness that can follow laser and light-based treatments.
03
SENSITIVE, REDNESS-PRONE SKIN
For skin that tends to stay reactive after treatment and benefits from extra calming support.
04
SHORT RECOVERY WINDOWS
For international patients who want a steadier recovery before flying home.

COMBINATION CARE
Synergy Protocols
PROTOCOL 01
POTENZA + CALECIM: RENEW + RECOVER
Potenza RF microneedling refines pores, scars and texture by creating controlled micro-channels. Calecim is applied straight afterward, while those channels are open, to support a calmer recovery. Dr. Jiyoun Kang sets the Potenza parameters and the aftercare together.
PROTOCOL 02
BBL HERO + CALECIM: CLARIFY + CALM
BBL HERO broadband light targets pigmentation, redness and dullness. Calecim follows to help settle the skin after light treatment — a pairing suited to sensitive or redness-prone skin. Dr. Jiyoun Kang decides whether your skin needs it.
PROTOCOL 03
Thermage FLX + Calecim: Tighten + Soothe
Thermage FLX delivers deep radiofrequency heat to firm and tighten the skin. Calecim can follow to help settle the warmth and sensitivity that may linger after an RF session, so the skin recovers comfortably while collagen rebuilds. Dr. Jiyoun Kang decides whether your skin needs it.
