While curating VIOLET GREY’s Korean beauty assortment, Alicia Yoon wanted to bring you a taste of the cutting-edge skincare clinics in Korea without making you book a trip to Seoul. After interviewing a multitude of plastic surgeons, she learned about the Dream Medical Group, which created a skincare range and device for its demanding clientele, who yearned for products that replicated in-office results in the comfort of their own homes.

Yoon was struck by the Dr. Dream Medi RE10, a device that boosts product absorption and, in turn, its efficacy. Included are four LED modes: white, which emits heat to boost circulation; yellow to treat pigmentation; red to stimulate collagen; and blue to soothe and relieve skin. Each session takes five minutes, or you can complete all four programs within 20 minutes. The device also vibrates to improve elasticity and heats up to 42°C (107°F, or the optimal temperature for skin) for better product penetration. Just think of it as your personal aesthetician.

“You get four LED modalities in one small handheld gadget. It’s also clever that the device vibrates to stimulate circulation and helps skincare products absorb deeper. It takes only five minutes, which means it’s incredibly easy to get professional-grade results at home.”—Alicia Yoon, founder of Peach & Lily
