Recently, the area around my mouth kept getting red and itchy, so I visited a dermatology clinic. At first, I thought it was just simple dryness, but it started becoming painful and developing flakes, which worried me a lot. In the consultation room, Dr. Hong Eun-ji meticulously examined my skin with a magnifying glass and asked detailed questions about recent cosmetics, food, and weather changes. As a result, I was diagnosed with allergic angular cheilitis and was informed that my symptoms were aggravated by irritation and allergic reactions. The treatment aimed to minimize irritation, starting with a low-irritation steroid ointment and an antihistamine prescription, along with soothing skin management and cooling and moisturizing care at the clinic. During the soothing care process, when they applied a cold pack, I immediately felt relief from the itching, and my skin overall felt more comfortable. They also provided detailed guidance on choosing moisturizing products to use at home and how to wash my face, which was a great help for my management. What I appreciated about this clinic was that they didn’t just prescribe medication but also accurately explained the cause of my symptoms and provided guidance on lifestyle management to prevent recurrence. After 2 to 3 days post-treatment, the redness significantly reduced, and after about a week, the itching nearly disappeared.

I had severe nasal congestion due to rhinitis for a long time, which made everyday life uncomfortable. Recently, my symptoms got worse, so I decided to visit the hospital. Especially at night, my nose would get so blocked that I couldn't sleep well, and I would wake up with headaches in the morning. I felt that I couldn't put it off any longer. After consulting with the doctor, I was diagnosed with a deviated septum and chronic rhinitis, and I was advised that medication had its limits, so surgery was recommended. At first, I felt burdened and worried about the surgery, but the medical staff explained the process and recovery time in detail, which helped me make my decision. On the day of the surgery, it was performed under local anesthesia, and the pain was less than I expected. The surgery didn't take long, and afterward, I was able to rest in the recovery room before going home. Right after the surgery, there was some cotton in my nose, which made it feel stuffy, but I managed it as I was instructed. A few days later, when the cotton was removed, I definitely felt a difference – it was like my previously blocked nose was finally open, and breathing became much easier. I had developed a habit of breathing through my mouth, but that's gradually decreased. I'm currently visiting the hospital regularly to check my progress, and I'm very satisfied as my nasal congestion and sneezing symptoms have clearly reduced compared to before.

As I’ve gotten older, I’ve become more concerned about my skin’s elasticity and texture, as well as sagging in my face. I regularly get facial lifting treatments, and they definitely seem to help with maintaining my skin’s firmness and defining my jawline. The Plastic Surgery clinic I visited this time for a Thread Lift was close to a subway station, so it was easy to get there by public transportation. I especially felt comfortable going there because the board-certified plastic surgeon personally checked my facial condition and handled the Thread Lift consultation and procedure. This time, I had the Thread Lift mainly around my cheeks and jawline. They applied anesthesia before the procedure, and I waited for about 20 minutes before it began. Since it involves inserting threads into the face, I was worried about how painful it would be, but because the procedure was done after anesthesia, it was more manageable than I expected. After the Thread Lift was finished, I tidied up my face in the powder room, listened to the instructions about precautions, and left. There may be some swelling or a tight feeling immediately after the procedure, but I didn’t experience any major inconvenience in my daily life. However, I was told to avoid pressing hard on or massaging my face, and to be careful at first about opening my mouth too wide or doing strenuous exercise.

Review of the sleep gastroscopy and colonoscopy at Hanaro Medical Foundation in Jongno! Finally, the day came for my long-overdue health check-up... The distance from my home to Jongno and Gangnam is pretty much the same, but since I'm more familiar with Jongno, that's where I made the appointment. It's a regular building, but there’s an elevator just for people getting health check-ups, and the security guard helped me find it quickly. The building was bigger than I expected, and it was so clean inside; I really liked that there weren't too many people around. After making the payment, I received the exam paper and clothes to change into and headed to the designated area (changing room). It felt a bit like a factory-like health check-up center, but everything moved smoothly, so it wasn't uncomfortable. Finally, it was time for the last quest - the sleep gastroscopy. They had me lie down and adjusted my position correctly, and before I even knew it, I was off to dreamland within 5 seconds of getting the mouthpiece in. The nurses checked to see if I was awake and then brought me over to show the condition of my stomach and colon. I was relieved to find out that there were no polyps. I was quite worried about the colonoscopy since I hadn't done it before, but once I opened my eyes, it was all over—no pain or discomfort at all. I was even left wondering if they had actually done anything, as I felt no aftereffects whatsoever.

The staff guided me calmly, which made it less stressful even though I wasn't feeling great. While examining me, the doctor carefully checked the burn area and explained my current condition and how to manage it in a way that was easy to understand. In particular, they helped me with how to care for the blister and what to be careful about in my daily life.

Overall, the outpatient clinic had a straightforward approach, and I felt that the necessary treatment was carried out efficiently.

Every change of season, I can't sleep at night due to nasal congestion and end up breathing through my mouth, which makes my throat sore. I read that Dr. Jung Hyun-soo at the local cafe does thorough consultations, so I went there, feeling a bit unsure, but the results were fantastic! Honestly, many ENT clinics just give a quick look at your nose and prescribe some medication, right? But Dr. Jung Hyun-soo is truly different. He showed me the inside of my nose with an endoscope, explaining exactly why it's swollen and the condition of my septum, detail by detail, which made me trust him immediately. Most importantly, he empathized by saying, 'You must have been very uncomfortable,' and adjusted the medication to suit my lifestyle. I usually have a hard time with antihistamines making me drowsy, but he prescribed just the right amount, so I wasn't impaired during the day at work. Thanks to him, I could breathe freely after just a few days. The clinic is neat, and the nursing staff is friendly, making for a pleasant visit. For those like me who deal with chronic rhinitis or throat pain, you definitely need to see Dr. Jung Hyun-soo. There's no excessive treatment, and he makes patients feel at ease, so I'm planning to stick with this clinic!

I made an appointment for a consultation about braces and went in. Even though I had an appointment, it felt like I waited nearly an hour. Since it's an appointment-based system, the staff and the doctor seemed quite busy. However, the staff consistently came and went, smoothly handling registration and consultations. It wasn't a fancy new clinic, but I had heard from other moms that it was a reliable dental office, so I decided to give it a try. The simple and cozy atmosphere gave me a sense of trust that they wouldn't over-treat at all. After a basic examination, I was impressed by the doctor's calm and thorough consultation; I was even surprised when he suggested I get a second opinion at another clinic. There seemed to be quite a few kids visiting, and there must be reasons for that, right? I went in with zero knowledge, not even knowing what questions I should ask, but I really appreciated how the staff took the time to explain even the smallest doubts I had. I'm scheduled to go back for a consultation in two weeks when the exam results come in, but I hope the cost of braces won't be too burdensome. I think my child will be comfortable going alone, and seeing the final cases gave me even more confidence. It looks like I will be coming here regularly. I'll post an update later!

My shoulder hurt so much that even putting on clothes was painful, and I couldn't stretch my arms. While working, I struggled to move my arms, which caused a lot of issues. I thought it might get better, but it didn't. I went to an orthopedic clinic and was told I had a muscle injury, so I got an injection and physical therapy, but it didn't improve. Then I went to a pain clinic, where they diagnosed me with frozen shoulder and gave me another injection, but that also didn't work. Out of desperation, I visited a traditional medicine clinic, and they said my muscles were fatigued. I received acupuncture and cupping therapy and did physical therapy for almost 50 days, but there was no improvement... 😢. I had no choice but to visit another orthopedic clinic. They did an ultrasound and said there were calcium deposits that needed to be broken up with shockwave therapy. I underwent shockwave therapy for almost two months, costing 70,000 won each time, but it had no effect either. However, my brother mentioned that Jeonju Ajung Purum Neurosurgery Clinic was effective, so I made time to come here. When I arrived at the clinic, there were a lot of patients waiting, which made me hopeful for my appointment. Dr. Park Cheol-hyung looked at the images and said I had inflammation. He gave me an injection and acupuncture (not the kind from the traditional clinic) in several spots, followed by physical therapy. Miraculously, I'm no longer in pain. I've been coming down for about three days now, only getting acupuncture and physical therapy, and I'm so happy that there's no pain. Thank you so much to Dr. Park Cheol-hyung, the nurses, and the physical therapists.

I visited Yonsei Woori Clinic because I was sweating a lot during the summer and developed a severe heat rash on my neck and back. At first, I thought it would clear up quickly, but the itching and stinging continued and made everyday life uncomfortable, so I decided to get treatment. The wait from check-in to the consultation wasn’t long, and the staff guided me kindly, so I was able to wait comfortably. During the consultation, they carefully asked when my symptoms had started and what situations made them worse. They also explained my current skin condition in a way that was easy to understand. Rather than simply prescribing medication, they explained what causes heat rash and what I should be careful about in my daily life, which was very helpful. In particular, they gave me detailed advice on wearing breathable clothing and managing sweat, making it easier to take care of the rash at home. After applying the prescribed ointment for several days and following their instructions, the itching and redness improved significantly. Most of all, I felt I could trust them because they provided only the necessary treatment without overdoing it. They also answered my questions kindly and thoroughly, so I was very satisfied. If you’re dealing with the discomfort of heat rash, I think this is a clinic worth visiting without hesitation.

I got burned on my wrist when hot water splashed on it, and after a few days, the swelling and pain didn't go down, so I consulted the clinic. At first, I thought it was just a simple burn, but the doctor thoroughly checked not just visually, but also looked at my wrist movement, heat sensation, and any tissue damage. For the treatment, they used specialized ointment and dressing to reduce the inflammation in the burn area. I was worried that the disinfection process would hurt, but the nurse was very gentle and took her time, so it was actually more comfortable than I expected. Afterward, they applied moist treatment to help with skin regeneration quickly, and they explained in detail why this method is necessary and how to manage it at home. Following their instructions made the pain much less, and my recovery speed improved as well. What I particularly appreciated about this clinic is the expertise that comes from experience. Since they deal with a lot of burn cases, they informed me step by step about how the recovery would go, which eased my anxiety significantly. The pace of treatment is fast but thorough, and I was really satisfied with how they checked my condition meticulously each visit. They managed my wrist movement well, which gave me more confidence. If you're struggling with a burn, I really recommend this clinic. The treatment results are good, and their explanations are clear, so I feel reassured about managing it at home.

First of all, the teachers are friendly, and there’s a playground for children there, so I thought I made the right choice with this dental clinic when I saw the kids playing. They even had a TV for kids to watch. I had a cavity treatment, and it didn’t hurt at all. Plus, it’s connected to a hospital, so if I catch a cold while at the dentist, I can go directly there. They also have a restroom, so you can brush your teeth before the treatment to make sure your breath is nice and clean (and show off how clean you usually are). While lying down for the treatment, they play a video to watch, and if something funny comes up and you laugh, they don’t scold you or tell you to stop laughing, which was nice. At other dental clinics, they would have scolded me. (And after getting all the dental work done, they give you super cool and fun toys and Pokémon cards, but that’s a secret.) Kids who collect Pokémon cards love getting a super cool card worth about 10,000 won after their dental treatment. There’s also a convenience store nearby, so when you finish your dental treatment and get hungry, you can just pop in and have a high five with the angels~ That’s what I’m talking about~ So you guys should definitely give it a try!

Recently, I burned my leg with hot water and have been regularly visiting the hospital for treatment. At first, I thought it was just a minor redness, but over time, the burning and stinging sensations continued, which worried me and prompted me to seek medical attention. During my consultation, the doctor carefully examined the burn area and provided a detailed explanation of my current condition and how to manage it. I then received dressing treatment, and I felt reassured because they handled it with great care to prevent any infection. Each time I visited, they checked my recovery progress and adjusted the treatment accordingly, which made me trust them. In the beginning, even walking or having clothes brush against it was uncomfortable, but as I received treatment, the pain gradually started to diminish. The burn area looks much more stable than it did at first, and I’ve really realized the importance of ongoing care. They also provided thorough instructions on how to manage the wound at home, which helped me recover. It's easy to think that burns will heal over time, but going through it myself made me realize how essential it is to get proper treatment in the early stages. I am still undergoing treatment, but my condition is improving, and I am satisfied. I plan to continue focusing on my recovery with consistent care. Visiting the hospital has given me much more peace of mind compared to managing it on my own, and the recovery process feels much smoother.

Suddenly, I developed a red rash and severe itching around my arms and neck, so I visited a dermatologist and was diagnosed with contact dermatitis. At first, I thought it was just simple dryness or a temporary allergy, but after noticing the symptoms appeared after using new cosmetics and detergents, I was able to identify the cause. The clinic examined my skin condition and prescribed ointment and antihistamines, and advised me to immediately stop using the suspected products. In the early stage of treatment, the itching kept me up at night, but after consistently using the medication and minimizing skin irritation, I noticed the redness significantly reduced after a few days. Reducing my habit of washing with hot water and applying moisturizer frequently helped protect my skin barrier. During the treatment period, I avoided using strongly scented products and irritating cosmetics, and wore cotton clothing to minimize skin friction. After about two weeks, the itching and rash nearly disappeared, and my skin returned to its original state. I learned that finding and avoiding the triggering substances is more important than just applying medication for contact dermatitis. If anyone else is experiencing similar symptoms, I recommend seeing a specialist early on and starting appropriate treatment. Thanks to consistent care, I was able to recover satisfactorily.

Reason for visiting the clinic: - My skin has been breaking out a lot due to hormonal changes, I can't manage it at home anymore... - I've had acne popping up in certain areas of my face since puberty, and there are spots where I've caused scars and stress from improper extraction, so I was looking for a solution. Treatment name: - Capri laser (acne stamping + sebum toning) + basic acne treatment (extraction + white peel + mask) about 5 sessions with a week interval. The process (sometimes it changes, but I wrote it based on the latest treatment): Store my things (locker)> Cleanse> Laser room for stamping_sebum toning> After extraction (excluding painful areas like the nose and philtrum, they extract minimally upon request), they give you a mirror and if you mention any areas needing extra attention, they'll proceed if possible. If not, they guide you on additional injection treatments or care methods. > White peel (if they aren’t busy, they do a thorough job on my whole face, but there was a day when it was really busy and they only applied it to the central part of my face... But I have no major complaints on other days as they did a great job.) The mask takes about 10 minutes to dry. They do the modeling mask, asking if they should cover my eyes and lips too, which is nice. If I ask them to lift it, they do it after the gauze. It feels refreshing and nice! After the mask, they ask if they should apply basic skincare (toner, two types of regeneration cream) or include sunscreen. I usually just get the basic skincare since I go home right after, but I did try the sunscreen once, and it was light and nice! Also, they administer any necessary anti-inflammatory injections on the bed I received care on or in a separate injection room, consistently administering the right amount needed without any side effects, so I'm doing well! That's how the treatment ends. I plan to continue coming here in the future and I have a high intention to recommend it to others! Regarding the photos: 2 and 3 were taken before the final treatment, about 2 weeks after the last treatment. In images 1 and 2, my troubles weren't covered so I was very stressed, but in image 4, unless it was a really big one, it was well covered, and I felt happy!

I've been suffering from nasal congestion for a long time, and it had become routine for me to breathe through my mouth while sleeping, so I finally visited the clinic suspecting a deviated septum. During the consultation with Dr. Kim Kyu-jin, he showed me the inside of my nose with an endoscope, explaining each detail about my current condition and why my airway was blocked, which helped me understand very well. At other hospitals, they immediately talked about surgery, which made me feel pressured, but here they honestly discussed why surgery was necessary and the limitations if I didn't have it, which built my trust. After the consultation, they gave me plenty of time to think, and I ultimately had the septoplasty surgery. On the day of the surgery, they explained the process and recovery again, which really eased my tension, and the surgery itself was quicker than I expected. When I woke up in the recovery room after anesthesia, my nose felt stuffy, but the pain wasn't as bad as I had thought, and the nurses kept checking my condition, which made me feel reassured. The first few days after the surgery, my nose felt uncomfortable, but after about a week, the feeling of breathing completely changed. The congestion that was only on one side disappeared, and I was able to sleep deeply at night, which definitely improved my quality of life. I felt that the biggest advantage of this clinic was that they provided only the necessary treatments without excessive treatment and took meticulous care of me after the surgery.

Pain and recovery period: I experienced a mild fever and had a pain level of about 6 when eating due to inflammation. There was also inflammation in my throat, making it painful to swallow food and water. After about two weeks of medication, I recovered. I started visiting this hospital based on recommendations from friends since high school. The waiting area is neat, and the nurses are very friendly. The hospital treats not just children and adolescents, but also adults with internal medicine conditions and vaccinations, which brings in many patients. The doctor here is very thorough in their treatment, and they provide appropriate treatment and prescriptions for the symptoms you present. During respiratory virus season, they ensure thorough cleaning of the examination room after tests for infection prevention, so I trust this hospital for treatment. I visited the hospital for symptoms of oral thrush and a sore throat. They conducted a basic examination and checked the condition of the oral thrush, and after confirming the inflammation in my throat, they explained everything in detail. After about two weeks of antibiotics, I recovered. They prescribe medication very effectively right from the start. This hospital is also known for its meticulous check-ups for infants and young children, so I hope this information helps anyone considering visiting for treatment, vaccinations, or infant check-ups.

After a lot of consideration, I decided to go for revision surgery along with lower eyelid fat repositioning. This place is well-known for revision eyelid surgery, so I made up my mind and made an appointment.

When my child was not eating as well as usual and was sniffing a lot, I initially thought it was just a light cold. However, after about two days, the nasal congestion got worse, and he started breathing through his mouth more often. At night, he kept waking up while trying to sleep, so I decided to visit the pediatrician. After arriving at the hospital and checking in, we measured my child's temperature and weight. In the examination room, the doctor first looked into his throat to check for any swelling or inflammation, and also examined his ears. Then, while checking his nose, the doctor looked at the condition of the discharge and listened to his chest and back with a stethoscope to check his breathing sounds. The doctor also asked in detail about any allergy symptoms my child usually has and whether he had any friends who missed school due to a cold recently. During the examination, the doctor noticed that my child kept sniffing and explained what was causing his discomfort. I was advised to keep the air at home from being too dry and to encourage regular hydration. They informed me to ensure he takes his medication consistently at the prescribed times. Additionally, I was told to seek further medical attention if he started running a fever or had severe coughing.

I was really bothered by the darkening of the freckles and blemishes on my left arm that made me self-conscious every time I wore short sleeves. So, after delaying it for a while, I went to Snow Clinic for a consultation. As soon as I walked in, the overall clean and calm atmosphere left a good first impression, and the waiting time wasn't long, which made me feel at ease. In the consultation room, the doctor carefully examined my arm's skin condition, distinguishing between freckles and pigmentation while explaining it to me. It wasn't just a simple 'You just need laser treatment,' but he also addressed why that area had darkened more, pointing out sun exposure and friction habits, which made me trust him. He recommended that multiple sessions of low-stimulation toning lasers would be better for my skin than a strong laser treatment, and we also performed pigment management and soothing treatments together. During the procedure, there was almost no stinging, just a slight warmth. He continuously checked in to see if I was doing okay, which helped me feel less tense. After the treatment, they immediately applied a soothing mask and performed regeneration care, which quickly calmed my skin down. After a few days, I could see that the blemishes had faded and the overall skin tone of my arms had become more even, which made me really satisfied. Above all, the fact that they didn't push for excessive treatments and tailored a plan based on my skin condition clearly set them apart from other clinics. The explanations were kind, and the results were natural, so it's a place I would want to return to if I have concerns about pigmentation.
