Hyunginjae FAQ
QHow do I differentiate between simple Facial Asymmetry and Facial Asymmetry packages?
Basically, we focus on correcting Facial Asymmetry with Mi-in(美人) Acupuncture and Chuna Manual Therapy first, and then consider a package direction with V-RO Lifting and UMS Facial when there is a combination of loss of elasticity, edema, or myofascial release.
