I would not recommend it to those with dry or oily skin. It applies smoothly without any greasy feel, but it is a bit tacky.
ConsI used this product for 3 days and then had a huge breakout of milia. There is an enormous amount of bumps on my cheeks. Even though I'm not usually prone to milia, it got really bad. In fact, since I've been trying to correct the issue, I've only been eating porridge and using problem-free cosmetics from the dermatologist for skincare, and I haven't worn makeup in a while. I've also been diligently changing my pillowcase, and doing everything else right. Aside from the scarring, everything else had almost cleared up, but after using this product, it got worse than before. The bumps are really much more severe than the photos show.

ConsSince I have very sensitive skin, even a little bit of irritation or strong chemicals can cause my skin to go haywire (I have the worst combination, acne-prone skin). On the 2nd day after application... My skin developed small pimples, pustules, and severe redness, so I immediately stopped using it and went to the pharmacy. (The first 2 photos are before, the last 3 are after) It applies smoothly, but it's a bit sticky, and the scent is not great. After I applied it, my boyfriend smelled it and said 'Whoa, what's this herbal scent?' and when I asked if he didn't like it, he said it was a bit off-putting.
TipApplying a skin pad on top after using it can help enhance the effects a bit more!

Even after my breakouts have calmed down, I still have to deal with the aftermath of discoloration and enlarged pores. I tried the Hiru Sca product for the first time. I've used all the famous pharmacy items, steroid ointments, and dermatologist-prescribed scar gels, but I haven't really seen significant results until now. I didn't have high expectations, but this product is different from the others. It has a refreshing, water-based gel texture. When applied, there's a slight cooling sensation, and it absorbs quickly without feeling heavy or sticky. 👍🏻 Unlike thick ointments, this allows me to apply makeup on top comfortably. It's fragrance-free, and I didn't experience any irritation even with daily use. After about a week of consistent use, I noticed a subtle but noticeable lightening of my discoloration, shifting from a darker brown to a lighter, more reddish-brown tone. It's not a dramatic change, but it's certainly better than before! I'm eager to keep using it.
ConsEven after using it consistently for a week, the effects were only minor. Sometimes, when I layered a richer cream on top, it didn't seem to blend as well, or if I used it too frequently, it would cause some small bumps to appear. It seems like using it every other day or moderating the frequency is better, rather than applying it too often.

The gel-type formula was a bit sticky but absorbed quickly, which was fine. The soothing effect was excellent - lightly applying it to red blemishes helped calm them down considerably. Moreover, when I applied this and then did my makeup, there was no pilling, shifting, or clumping, which showed its great absorption. Applying it before makeup gave me a sense of reassurance. Effects: The blemish-soothing effect worked well! My red, acne-ridden areas calmed down quickly and visibly subsided. It was effective for me, but didn't seem to do much for my hyperpigmentation issues. While fading pigmentation is notoriously difficult, it was disappointing. But since I only used it for a short time, I think with consistent use, the pigmentation could lighten over time.
ConsOn the first day I applied it, it stung a little and my face felt hot, and the next day some blemishes popped up. I'm not sure if it was due to this product, but there were times when certain areas felt irritated when I used it. However, my skin seemed to improve a lot, so I liked it!! My skin condition felt much better!
TipI mostly only applied it at night and barely used it in the morning. Somehow, I felt like applying it at night and sleeping on it made my skin improve more! Applying it in the morning didn't seem as effective.

Once a breakout occurs, the blemishes tend to linger for a long time. The formula is a lightweight, spreadable, and transparent ointment. It applies very smoothly and absorbs well. Since it doesn't feel sticky or overly oily, it doesn't interfere with my existing skincare routine or the subsequent sunscreen and base makeup application, which is great.
ConsI broke out right after applying it the next day. I was aware that scar-treating ointments are most effective when applied after the inflammation has fully subsided, so I'm wondering if I might have applied it before the inflammation was completely gone. I tried it on another area where the inflammation had calmed down, but that area became irritated again, so I had to wipe it off. Facial skin is quite delicate, so while I've been using it on scars on my legs, the effects don't seem to be as rapid as on my face. I'll have to observe it for a bit longer. It's often the case that when using scar-treating products, you wonder if they're actually working, but then realize they were effective once you stop using them. So I believe the key with scar care products is to use them consistently, even though I couldn't use it on my face. (I had high hopes for this ointment since my blemishes tend to linger, so I'm quite disappointed.) I'll post another review after using it consistently on other areas of my body.
TipFor those with sensitive skin, I'd recommend carefully checking the ingredient list to ensure there are no problematic components before purchasing.

It applies well, but after application, it feels slightly sticky and my hair gets stuck to it..ㅜ The fragrance is somewhat herbal, but I didn't really like it ㅠㅠ
ConsAfter using it for a week, I'm not sure if the blemishes are fading, but breakouts are appearing around the areas I applied it ㅜㅜ. They do subside quickly, but tiny bumps keep popping up ㅠㅠ
TipYou really need to use just a tiny bit, and if it doesn't absorb well, it gets pushed away when you apply sunscreen. You have to be careful with the amount!

These types of products often require longer usage periods to see the effects.. I applied for the review thinking of it as a scar cream for my face, but when I actually won and read the reviews, many people said their skin troubles cleared up after using it on their face..🤣 Still, I tried applying it, and the spots that were already clearing up also got worse, so I've been using it only on my body since then. In conclusion, I don't think I'll repurchase this. Maybe I'll consider it again later if the pigmentation improves after I finish using it.
ConsCauses skin troubles when applied to the face Feels irritated and doesn't suit the face

ConsWhen I applied it to the scar on my forehead and the discolored scar on my cheek, pimples kept popping up around the area. There are scars on my nose and between my eyebrows, and after applying it, I ended up with small bumpy pimples the next day, as well as painful, thick, and undrainable pimples on my nose. Trying to fade the scars ended up giving me more pimples...
TipYou should apply it to the scars, not when you have acne breakouts. Apply it to the discolored scars left by popped pimples, but be aware that it may cause new pimples.

Usage Experience Hiruska > Dermatix > Northsana Gel Hiruska is quickly absorbed and has good spreadability and a pleasant feel. Northsana Gel requires longer rubbing to be effective. 2. Effectiveness (Very good) 3. Irritation Northsana Gel > Hiruska > Dermatix Ultra Northsana Gel itself can be irritating, so if the amount is not properly controlled, it can cause itching, redness, occasional acne, and small bumps. Hiruska can also cause small bumps if used excessively. Occasional acne may also occur. Dermatix does not require applying a large amount in the first place.
ConsAcne seems to be coming up From the 4th day, something similar to small bumps has been coming up. Do not apply too much just because it absorbs well. Be careful with the amount. (It's not that much to begin with, but you can't apply a lot of this product anyway ㅎㅎ)
TipApply a thin layer, about the size of a small bean. Among the three, Hiruska is definitely recommended!
