The Importance
of Slow Aging
in Korea, Incheon, Songdo Korea
Aging does not happen overnight—it progresses gradually at the cellular and tissue level. Slow aging focuses on managing how we age, rather than simply correcting visible changes after they appear.
By supporting the body’s internal environment, regenerative capacity, and tissue stability, this approach aims to maintain balance, resilience, and a natural appearance over time. At LABE, slow aging is approached as a long-term medical strategy designed to guide aging in a controlled, physiologic way.
Slow Aging at LABE
HBOT → LABECELL → MCT MetaCell
Aging is not a single event, but a gradual biological process influenced by oxygen supply, cellular environment, and regenerative capacity. Rather than focusing only on visible changes, slow aging aims to support the body’s internal conditions that affect how tissues age over time.
At LABE Plastic Surgery, slow aging is approached through a stepwise regenerative flow that connects IBEX Hyperbaric Oxygen Therapy (HBOT), LABECELL, and MCT MetaCell into a coordinated treatment strategy.
Optimizing the Cellular Environment with IBEX HBOT
Slow aging begins with improving the body’s internal environment. IBEX Hyperbaric Oxygen Therapy, performed using the IBEX M2 chamber at 2 ATA, increases the amount of oxygen dissolved in the bloodstream. Enhanced oxygen availability supports cellular metabolism, microcirculation, and tissue readiness.
This step is not intended to reverse aging instantly, but to create a physiologic foundation that supports healthier cellular function before regenerative treatments are introduced.
Preparing Autologous Regenerative Resources with LABECELL
Once the internal environment is optimized, the next step focuses on preparing the body’s own regenerative resources. LABECELL involves controlled blood collection followed by precise separation of blood-derived components such as PRP and PPP.
This process allows individualized preparation of autologous materials that reflect the patient’s current biological condition. In the context of slow aging, LABECELL represents a transition from environmental optimization to biologically guided regeneration.
Amplifying Regenerative Signaling with MCT MetaCell
MCT MetaCell represents a more advanced and intensified stage of autologous regenerative therapy. Built upon the foundation prepared through LABECELL, MetaCell incorporates refined blood-derived cellular components and autologous exosome–mediated signaling.
It can be administered through dermal injection for localized tissue support or via intravenous (IV) infusion to support systemic regenerative signaling through the homing effect. This step focuses on coordination and amplification of regenerative responses rather than rapid or artificial change.
Why This Flow Matters: LABE’s Philosophy of Slow Aging
in Korea, Incheon, Songdo Korea
Slow aging is not defined by a single procedure, but by timing, sequence, and biological coherence. Rather than attempting rapid correction, LABE’s approach focuses on creating conditions that allow the body to age more gradually and stably. In this structured flow, IBEX Hyperbaric Oxygen Therapy (HBOT) supports the cellular environment by improving oxygen availability, LABECELL prepares individualized autologous regenerative materials based on the patient’s own biology, and MCT MetaCell further amplifies and coordinates regenerative signaling.
By aligning these steps into a unified process, LABE emphasizes the gradual stabilization of tissue health, resilience, and recovery capacity—key elements in slowing both the visible and biological progression of aging. This approach prioritizes long-term balance over short-term correction.
At LABE Plastic Surgery, slow aging is treated as a medical and regenerative strategy, not a cosmetic shortcut. Treatments are selected and sequenced based on physiology rather than trends, with the goal of supporting aging as a controlled, progressive process. Through the integrated use of HBOT, LABECELL, and MCT MetaCell, LABE aims to help patients maintain tissue integrity, functional balance, and a natural appearance over time.
Integrating Surgery and Energy-Based Treatments into the Slow Aging Program
in Korea, Incheon, Songdo Korea
Slow aging is not limited to non-surgical care alone. While non-invasive energy-based devices such as lasers, radiofrequency, and ultrasound play an important role in supporting skin quality, collagen remodeling, and tissue stability, surgical correction may be considered when structural changes require more definitive improvement.
When appropriately indicated, combining surgery with a slow aging program can create meaningful synergy. Energy-based treatments and regenerative strategies help optimize tissue condition and recovery, while surgery addresses anatomical concerns that cannot be fully corrected non-surgically. By integrating non-surgical energy-based care with surgical refinement when needed, LABE’s slow aging approach aims to support long-term balance, stability, and natural-looking outcomes rather than isolated or short-term correction.
