    I received a Volnewmer lifting treatment at Kkeut Korean Medicine Clinic. I had been concerned about my skin’s elasticity and facial contour lately, so I decided to go ahead with the treatment after a consultation. I appreciated how carefully they checked my current skin condition and the areas I was concerned about beforehand. They explained the treatment plan based on the areas I wanted to focus on, and I was able to ask questions comfortably, which helped me feel at ease. During the treatment, I felt warmth or a slight tingling sensation depending on the area, but the pain was not severe enough to be difficult to tolerate. Afterward, my skin was slightly red and felt warm, but it gradually calmed down over time and didn’t significantly interfere with my daily life. I also liked that the recovery period was short, so the treatment didn’t feel burdensome. Right after the treatment, my facial contour already felt a little more defined, and my skin felt firmer, so I was very satisfied. Overall, everything from the consultation through the treatment was handled thoroughly, which made the experience comfortable. If you’re considering a lifting treatment, I think it would be a good idea to have a consultation first and then decide.

    I became interested in mint thread lifting procedures and discovered this clinic while comparing prices and reviews from various hospitals on Naver. Honestly, before the consultation, the price seemed so reasonable that I thought, 'Is this price really possible?' I had a phone consultation before my visit, and they provided comprehensive and friendly guidance on the procedure method, characteristics of the threads used, the number of threads needed, expected costs, recovery period, and precautions, making it easy to understand. I was also impressed by their explanations tailored to my facial condition without excessive pressure to sign up. Although I haven't undergone the procedure yet, I could sense the clinic's professionalism and structured consultation system just from the phone call, and their responsiveness was satisfactory. I found both the pricing and consultation details to be reasonable, so I plan to visit in person for the procedure if my schedule allows.

    I had a Volnewmer lifting treatment from the male doctor at Kkeut Korean Medicine Clinic. I had been concerned about my skin elasticity and facial contours lately, so I decided to go ahead with the treatment after a consultation. I appreciated how thoroughly he checked my current skin condition and the areas I was concerned about beforehand. He explained the treatment approach based on the areas I wanted to focus on, and I felt reassured because I could comfortably ask any questions I had. During the treatment, I felt warmth or a slight tingling sensation depending on the area, but it wasn’t painfully intense or difficult to tolerate. Afterward, my skin was slightly red and felt warm, but it gradually subsided over time and didn’t significantly interfere with my daily life. I also liked that the recovery period wasn’t long, so the treatment didn’t feel burdensome. Right after the procedure, my facial contours already looked a little more defined, and my skin felt firmer, so I was very satisfied.

    UnverifiedShinsegae An Dermatology Clinic

    I got Sofwave and Botox together :) Lately, my face has felt like it’s lost elasticity overall, and I was especially bothered by the fine lines that show when I smile, so I had a consultation for both treatments. The doctor looked over my entire face and focused on the areas that needed it most. Sofwave was more manageable than I expected, and I liked that my face wasn’t severely swollen or noticeably treated afterward. It didn’t make a huge difference right away, but over the next few days, my skin gradually started to feel a little firmer and more lifted? I especially like how my cheeks and jawline look more defined and neat than before. Maybe because I had Botox at the same time, but the wrinkles I used to notice whenever I made facial expressions are much less visible too haha I didn’t want to look overly pulled or have an awkward expression, so I’m satisfied that my face just looks naturally more toned overall. If you’re concerned about fine lines as well as lifting, I think it could be worth trying Sofwave and Botox together!

    Lately, every time I take a photo, I feel like my jawline isn’t what it used to be. In particular, the line from the front of my chin to the side of my jaw looked slightly less defined, and it started to bother me. The dermatology clinic I found was really close to Apgujeong Rodeo Station, so I didn’t even have to worry about finding my way there. The first thing I noticed when I walked in was how incredibly clean and bright it was. I was a little nervous at first, but the overall atmosphere of the clinic was so comfortable that I quickly felt at ease. The consultation was conducted directly by the director, and I felt even more reassured because all of the medical staff at this clinic are board-certified dermatologists. I was told that Titanium Lifting is a lifting laser that uses three wavelengths—755 nm, 810 nm, and 1064 nm—simultaneously. They explained that it delivers thermal energy deep into the skin to help stimulate collagen production and improve elasticity, naturally defining the jawline. Before I left, they also gave me a Titanium Lifting authenticity certificate, which made me trust them even more knowing they use genuine equipment. They even prepared a mask for me, but surprisingly, there was no redness at all, so I didn’t need to wear it. To be honest, it was more painful than I expected, but overall, I was very satisfied with everything from the procedure itself to the aftercare. I liked that I could see an immediate change, and I was even more satisfied because my jawline continued to look more defined as time went by.

    Rituo. Ondali lifting. Filler. Botox. Salmon injection filler I went to see Dr. Lee Jae-hyun for Botox and, after thinking it over, decided to go for a package deal today and had my first treatment done. My biggest concerns were my nasolabial folds and sagging face, and I’m satisfied after just one session. The doctor was incredibly kind and provided detailed explanations, carefully performing the procedure, which really built my trust and I’m grateful for that. I’ve had many treatments at other clinics in the past, but I often ended up more disappointed than I expected, so I’m very thankful to Dr. Lee Jae-hyun for the beautiful job he did.

    I’ve already been in for my third hair-removal session! It’s been a month since I received melasma pigmentation treatment last time, but my skin hasn’t recovered as much as I’d hoped, so I was worried. I spoke with the doctor before my hair-removal session, and they listened carefully to all my concerns and gave me lots of advice, including how to take care of my skin. They said we should wait a little longer since we need to see how the treated area looks after two to three months. I also asked about dermal fillers, which I’d been curious about, and they first listened to the areas I was concerned about, then gave me very honest and realistic advice. I was also able to get a filler consultation for an area I hadn’t normally paid much attention to! This was my third hair-removal session, but I already have much less hair growing back, so even the nursing assistant who came in to help was really surprised. She said it was amazing, haha. While I was getting the treatment, the doctor also asked me about my diet, which surprised me, and when I asked about lifting treatments, they gave me such a clear answer that I’m planning to come back for another lifting consultation when I’m almost done with my diet~ The consultation manager was kind, and the doctor was really kind too, haha.

    UnverifiedMaypure Clinic Mangwoo Station

    I visited Maypure’s Mangu Station branch for Pico Toning, Meladuse, and Shurink treatments. I had been concerned about my overall skin tone and blemishes, and my skin had been looking dull overall, so I felt like it needed some care. This time, I decided to try all three treatments together. It was my first visit, but the staff were very friendly and helpful. The clinic had a clean, comfortable atmosphere overall, so I was able to receive the treatments without feeling nervous. I got Pico Toning to improve my skin tone and manage blemishes, and I also had Meladuse, which made my previously dull skin feel a little clearer and brighter. I had Shurink for firming and lifting, and the treatment process was more comfortable than I expected. I was able to ask about anything I was curious about beforehand, and the explanations were thorough, so I felt reassured throughout the treatments. I liked that I could address several skin concerns at once, and I think I can look forward to even more satisfying changes in my skin tone and firmness if I continue taking care of my skin regularly. I would recommend this place to anyone looking for skin care or lifting treatments near Mangu Station. 😊

    I went for a consultation at the clinic for my skin elasticity for the first time, and since Ultherapy has been said to be effective among lifting procedures lately, I decided to go ahead with it. During the consultation, they examined my face and explained the level of sagging and the number of shots needed in detail, which made me trust them. On the day of the procedure, they first performed cleansing and applied a numbing cream, and then I waited for about 20-30 minutes. After that, they began the procedure while checking the depth of the skin with ultrasound. There were some slight prickly pains around the bones and jawline, but it was bearable. The entire procedure took about 30-40 minutes, and when I looked in the mirror afterward, I felt like my jawline was slightly defined. The nurse informed me that any swelling or heat was temporary and that I could return to my daily life immediately, which was convenient. After a few days, my skin started to feel increasingly tighter, and especially after about a month, I was very satisfied as I could clearly see my facial contours were refined. It feels like a natural lift, so it doesn’t look overly done, and I think it’s a procedure worth trying if you aim to improve skin elasticity.

    UnverifiedThe Way Plastic Surgery Clinic

    After entering my 30s, I gradually started noticing a double chin and less skin elasticity. After doing a lot of research, I decided to get ONDA Lifting at The Way Plastic Surgery!! Maybe because I’ve gained weight lately, or maybe because my skin has started to sag, but I developed a double chin and felt like my jawline looked uneven, so I was concerned. At some point, it also seemed like the contours of my face had become more curved and uneven. Since my main concerns were my double chin and sagging skin, I decided to get 60,000 lines of ONDA Lifting on my lower jaw and facial contours. Before the procedure, I explained what I was concerned about, and then we went ahead with the treatment. Since I have fairly prominent cheekbones, I was worried about getting hollow cheeks, but as soon as they saw me, they said they would proceed carefully around that area, so I felt comfortable putting myself in their hands. They didn’t just perform the procedure without thought—they examined everything in detail, which put me at ease. The treatment took about 10 minutes, and there was almost no stimulation. It just felt like my skin was alternately getting a little hot and then cold! And now, three weeks later, my double chin has improved a lot, and even though I haven’t lost weight, I feel like I have. I didn’t experience any side effects, and it’s a treatment that lets you return to your daily life right away. The procedure was completely painless, so I think it’s a great treatment to keep getting regularly without feeling burdened.

    This is a place I visit frequently for acne management, lifting treatments, and issues like my dad's skin and age spots. The hospital is really spacious and comfortable, and the facilities are great. Also, since the building is made up of three structures, the parking lot is really spacious, which I think makes it easier for beginners to drive there. They have various dermatology events, so every time I go, I feel satisfied because I can get treatments without a huge financial burden. Plus, I think the male head doctor has great skills because it doesn't hurt as much every time I have a procedure. I always end up coming back here for my dermatological care.

    The person at the desk seemed to be a new employee, but the instructions were lacking and things weren’t handled quickly. Whenever I asked a question, they would go, “Uh... um...” and ask someone next to them, and when I asked another question, they said, “Just a moment,” and tried to go somewhere..😓 I understand that can happen if they’re new, but the employee sitting next to them just stayed there doing nothingㅠㅠ Also, the consultation felt really uncomfortableㅎㅎ It felt like they absolutely wouldn’t let me finish unless I added something else. They kept listing all kinds of procedure names. They didn’t even open a new injection right next to me either,, There were supposed to be a lot of lifting shots, but it was over so quickly that I wondered if it was done properly.. I don’t think I’ll be coming back.

    I went to a dermatology clinic for LDM (water-drop lifting) treatment to improve my inner dryness and damaged skin barrier during the change of seasons. They applied aloe vera gel and rolled it over my skin with an ultrasound handpiece. It was warm and comfortable enough to make me sleepy, with no pain or irritation at all. When I looked in the mirror right after the treatment, my skin had a subtle glow that seemed to come from within, without any redness, and there was absolutely no downtime, so I could go straight back to my daily routine. The next morning, I noticed that my skin texture was noticeably smoother when washing my face, and my makeup went on beautifully and looked nicely dewy, so I was very satisfied. I recommend it as a gentle moisturizing and soothing treatment. I also liked that the clinic gave plenty of parking time.

    I always felt my face looked more blurred in photos compared to before, especially my nasolabial folds seemed deeper, which worried me. Makeup wasn't doing a great job at hiding it, so I booked an appointment with a plastic surgeon, and instead of jumping straight into a procedure, I decided to first have a consultation about what method would suit my skin condition best. After arriving at the clinic and completing the registration, I washed my face and was guided into the consultation room. When I mentioned my main concerns about the nasolabial folds and sagging jawline to the doctor, he checked my skin elasticity and fat distribution while touching my face. He explained that since my condition wasn't severely sagging, a lifting procedure seemed more appropriate than an incision surgery. He was honest about how the changes wouldn't be dramatic all at once and that I would feel a natural tightening over time, which actually built my trust. I was also informed that there might be swelling or tightness for a few days after the procedure. We took pre-procedure photos and then moved to the treatment room. After disinfecting my face, they marked the treatment areas, and during the procedure, they kept explaining which area was being worked on. I felt some tightness, but it wasn't unbearable, and they frequently checked in on me, which helped me relax a lot. The procedure didn't take as long as I expected, so it felt less burdensome. After the procedure, I checked my face in the mirror and was informed that slight redness and tightness were normal reactions. They explained that I should avoid hot compresses, saunas, alcohol, and intense exercise on the day of the procedure, and that I could wash my face and apply makeup after the advised time. It was nice to be told that I could contact the clinic if I had any questions. As the days went by, the tightness gradually decreased, and I felt like my jawline looked a bit more defined when I looked in the mirror. The nasolabial folds weren't completely gone, but my face appeared less tired than before, and I received comments from those around me that my face looked a bit cleaner. For someone like me who wanted natural improvement rather than drastic changes, it was a satisfying experience, and the process from consultation to the procedure and aftercare was calm, making it less intimidating for someone getting lifting for the first time.

    UnverifiedGangnam 12 Clinic

    After paying 1,400,000 won, I experienced sexual shame and treatment failure. I absolutely do not recommend this clinic. I paid 1,400,000 won for dual course 2 to improve smile lines and jawline, and planned to receive a total of 24 threads including 4 PCL threads and 20 concentric threads. However, during the design process before the treatment, I faced highly unpleasant and inappropriate physical contact from the responsible doctor. There was no change from the treatment, and the clinic's response was irresponsible, hence I'm leaving this review for public interest. 1. Inappropriate physical contact: During the design, the doctor pulled their body towards my legs that were sitting on the bed, getting too close to my private area, which was very uncomfortable and humiliating. I felt very bad from the start, but I had already paid, so I endured it. 2. Design and vector errors: Looking at the marking photo which was sketched in less than a minute, the threads were pulling in a direction that did not address the smile lines but only towards underneath the chin. As a result, the smile lines showed no improvement, and there was no change in the jawline either. My concerns were completely disregarded by the doctor during the design, and in a very authoritative manner, they dismissed my opinion with nonsensical statements like, “Dimples make you look old! Without dimples, you won't have wrinkles! Without wrinkles, you'll live longer!” 3. Doubts about the number of threads: When I saw the threads prepared just before the treatment, there were only about 15 threads instead of 24. When I asked the chief nurse (or was it a nurse aide?) about this, I received the absurd response, “It’s because the threads are short.” 4. Hygiene conditions: The hygiene management was terrible, with the threads placed on reused regular towels in non-sterile areas during preparation for the procedure. Moreover, there were unwashed black stains all over the gown of the doctor who performed the treatment. 5. Treatment process and post-treatment response: Despite informing them of my upcoming overseas trip, it was evident that the design did not match the paid treatment, which was ignored with excuses like 'wait for a month', 'it's because you didn't get fillers', and 'you'll probably need fillers if you come again'. I initially intended to receive a lifting treatment with thread lifting, not to fill in the concerns with fillers. The doctor did not attempt to improve the promised smile lines with thread lifting from the beginning and even expressed resentment towards me for not adding a smile filler, bluntly questioning why I didn't get it and suggesting that I should have spent that money to get fillers from them instead of somewhere else. The manager who consulted me even told me that the filler prices at this clinic are too expensive, and when I mentioned I would get it done elsewhere, they asked me to say to the doctor that I would get fillers next time, assuring that the doctor would insist on getting fillers as well. Additionally, despite the anesthesia, I felt severe pain, but I refrained from making any noise, worried that it would upset the rude doctor and interfere with the treatment. However, the doctor expressed irritation, saying, “Ugh, why are you so tense?! What hurts?!” To calm the doctor, I replied, “Yes, doctor, I am taking deep breaths,” but the doctor just became angrier, saying, “Why are you looking down?!” creating more fear for me with their unprofessional behavior and remarks. From the start, I should have been more cautious seeing the strange atmosphere of the clinic and the bizarre behavior and comments of the doctor, and I deeply regret falling for the false marketing of 'PCL 4 threads + 20 concentric threads for 1,400,000 won.' Looking again at the review photos, most seem to be poorly photoshopped images of my face. I returned home after three years; I wanted to get thread lifting during my vacation, but that opportunity has also been ruined. I hope there won't be anyone else who goes through the same financial and emotional distress as I did, and I am currently in the process of reporting to the consumer protection agency. Please choose carefully.

    I've been feeling like my skin's elasticity has really dropped lately, so I went in for a lifting treatment. I consulted on a 600-shot Shrink procedure, added a Reviheal Shining treatment, and decided on 2 bottles of CutSlin for my double chin. To be honest, if I'd had more flexibility in my budget, I would have liked to go for Densiti, but with the year-end pressure, I couldn't. The doctor explained everything kindly and performed the treatment, which I really appreciated. There weren't too many slots available before the closing time of 5 PM, especially on a Saturday around 3:30 PM, so there were quite a few other customers waiting. However, the nurses worked as quickly as possible, so it wasn't too uncomfortable. I got home, and the swelling has gone down quite a bit, and it feels like my skin has some elasticity back, which makes me happy. I guess I’ll have to keep an eye on it for a bit, though~~

    I visited for the OnDa lifting procedure. The staff were as friendly as ever and the atmosphere was comfortable. The waiting time wasn't long, which was nice. The procedure took about 20 to 30 minutes, and the pain was just a warm sensation with some intermittent heat. After the procedure, the redness subsided quickly and didn’t interfere with my daily life. Over time, I felt that my skin's elasticity gradually improved and my jawline was getting more defined. I also had the Lucas Dual Toning and I plan to keep getting that done regularly. The place I used to go has changed to Vibton, so the decor was the same and didn't feel new, but it was familiar and comfortable. They even gave me a Rejuran mask as a bonus, which was great.

    I was tired of the large factory-style dermatology clinics, so I searched online and found the reviews for Aiden Clinic in Cheongdam-dong were amazing! To sum it up, it was a huge success, and I immediately understood why everyone praises this place. First of all, the atmosphere in the clinic is overwhelming. It's designed so cleanly and stylishly, it feels like being in a high-end hotel lounge. I just had titanium lifting done today, and the quality of the procedure is phenomenal, especially since it’s a one-person clinic where the director is hands-on. For the entire 20 minutes of the laser treatment, the doctor continuously checked my skin condition and adjusted the settings without a moment's rest. I read in other reviews that the doctor has incredible confidence and a lot of energy when performing treatments, and I could feel that confidence and passion firsthand. It’s only been a few hours since my treatment, but already my entire face feels tight and lifted! When I touch my skin, I can really feel the sagging areas fill up in a bouncy way. I can see why so many people trust this doctor and keep coming back for anti-aging treatments. With such consistent quality, I don’t feel like I wasted a single penny. I plan to come regularly every month for ongoing care. I wholeheartedly recommend Aiden Clinic to anyone in Cheongdam-dong who wants to experience genuine lifting effects and be pampered! Doctor, I'll see you again next month!
