Is Dr.Althea 345 Relief Serum right for your skin?
Best for
- Skin that feels red, tight or uncomfortable after breakouts, sun, harsh weather or over-exfoliating
- Oily and combination skin that wants a calming step lighter than a cream
- Anyone using retinol, AHA or BHA who wants a soothing layer in the same routine
- People who already like the 345 Relief Cream and want an extra calming step underneath
Skip it, or patch-test first, if
- You want a product that fades dark spots or melasma: this is a calming serum, so pair it with a targeted serum and daily sunscreen
- Your skin is very dry: you will still need a moisturiser on top
- You have reacted to Dr.Althea products before: patch-test on the jawline for 24 hours
- Your skin has a rash, broken skin or a condition that is getting worse: see a doctor before trying new products
How do you use Dr.Althea 345 Relief Serum?
Morning
- Cleanse with a gentle face wash and apply toner if you use one.
- Press 2–3 drops into the face and neck.
- Follow with a moisturiser such as Dr.Althea 345 Relief Cream and a broad-spectrum SPF 50 sunscreen.
Evening
- Double cleanse if you wore sunscreen or makeup.
- Apply the serum after toner and let it absorb.
- Use your active, such as retinol, if you have one, then finish with moisturiser.
On days your skin feels hot or stressed, keep the routine short: cleanser, the 345 Relief Serum, a moisturiser and sunscreen. Oily skin in humid summer can sometimes skip the cream in the morning if the serum and sunscreen feel enough.
What are the key ingredients in Dr.Althea 345 Relief Serum?
- 345NA complex — Dr.Althea's own soothing ingredient blend, the same complex that names the 345 Relief Cream
- Centella asiatica extract — a soothing plant extract that helps red, stressed skin feel calm
- Hyaluronic acid — adds light, non-greasy hydration

| Use together? | Yes: the serum first | Yes: the cream on top |
Choose the 345 Relief Serum if you want a light calming layer, or a lighter option on oily skin in summer. Choose the 345 Relief Cream if you need a soothing moisturiser. For skin that feels very stressed, use both: the serum first and the cream on top.
How can you tell if your Dr.Althea 345 Relief Serum is original?
- The serum should be smooth and light, with no separation, grainy bits or strong perfume smell.
- The box should be sealed, with the ingredient list and Dr.Althea details printed clearly; blurred printing or spelling mistakes suggest a copy.
- A price far below other trusted sellers usually means old stock or a fake.
- Check the batch code printed on the box and the bottle: the two must match, and the code should look printed, not stuck on. Every unit we sell is batch-code checked on arrival in Seoul, and we verify any code for free — see how to check if Korean skincare is original.

Dr.Althea 345 Relief Serum: frequently asked questions
Is the Dr.Althea 345 Relief Serum at Korean Skincare Pakistan original?
Yes. Korean Skincare Pakistan is an Official Authentic seller of Dr.Althea in Pakistan. Our stock is bought from official Dr.Althea channels in Seoul, every unit is batch-code checked on arrival and shipped from our Seoul warehouse. If a product is ever not original, an old batch or near expiry, you can return it free within 7 days.
Is the Dr.Althea 345 Relief Serum safe for acne-prone skin?
For most acne-prone skin, yes. It is a light, calming serum without heavy oils or exfoliating acids, and it is a good partner for acne products that can dry or irritate the skin. It does not unclog pores or clear breakouts on its own, so keep a targeted acne product in your routine, patch-test first and see a doctor for painful or severe acne.
Can I use Dr.Althea 345 serum on combination skin?
Yes. The light serum texture suits combination skin well: it calms and hydrates without leaving a heavy layer on the oilier T-zone. Use it all over after toner, then apply a light moisturiser, more on the drier cheeks and less on the T-zone. In humid weather, the serum, a thin cream and sunscreen are usually enough.
Does Dr.Althea 345 help with melasma?
No. The 345 line is made to calm and comfort the skin, not to fade pigment, so it will not lighten melasma or dark spots. It can keep skin comfortable while you use brightening products. Melasma is best checked by a dermatologist, and daily broad-spectrum SPF 50 sunscreen is the most important step for any pigmentation.
How fast does the Dr.Althea 345 serum work?
Most people feel the skin is more comfortable and hydrated right after applying it. How quickly redness and that stressed feeling settle varies from person to person and depends on what caused it, such as sun, weather, breakouts or strong actives. Use it twice a day with a gentle routine, and see a doctor if irritation keeps getting worse.
How do I use the 345 Relief Serum with the 345 Relief Cream?
Use the serum first, after cleansing and toner, and let it absorb for a minute. Then apply the 345 Relief Cream as your moisturiser, and finish with sunscreen in the morning. Together they give a light calming layer and a soothing cream. On humid days, oily skin may only need the serum and sunscreen in the morning.
Which size should I buy, 15ml or 30ml?
The 15ml size is a trial or travel size, good for checking how the serum suits your skin. The 30ml size suits daily morning and evening use and lasts longer. Both are the same serum. The live price and stock of each size are shown right under the Add to Cart button.
