INTRODUCTION
────────────────────────────────────
If you are planning lifting, skin boosters, fillers or skin laser treatments during a trip to Seoul, you should not decide based on the clinic's location and price alone. You should also check the doctors' backgrounds and main areas of practice, the devices and products used, the recovery period after treatment, your travel schedule in Korea, and how to ask questions after returning home.
KLEAM Clinic Myeongdong is an aesthetic medical clinic located in the centre of Myeongdong, Seoul. It offers non-surgical lifting including Ulthera Prime and Thermage FLX, skin boosters such as Rejuran, fillers, botulinum toxin, pigmentation and acne care, and hair removal. It is also officially listed as a medical institution registered to attract foreign patients.
International patients can send their preferred treatments, doctor, visit date, consultation language and travel schedule in Korea through Prettykeep to check availability.

WHAT KIND OF CLINIC IS KLEAM MYEONGDONG?
────────────────────────────────────
KLEAM Clinic Myeongdong is located in central Myeongdong, an area frequently visited by international tourists in Seoul. It can be reached from Myeongdong Station and Euljiro 1-ga Station, and hotels, shopping facilities, restaurants and tourist attractions are concentrated nearby, making it a convenient area to plan a clinic visit alongside your travel itinerary.
The clinic describes its approach as checking the patient's skin condition and facial structure and then planning treatment individually. Its main treatment areas are as follows.
- Botulinum toxin and contouring injections
- Fillers
- Lifting
- Skin boosters
- Lipolytic injections
- Pigmentation care
- Acne care
- Pore and scar care
- Skin care

Although you can discuss injectable treatments, lifting devices and skin lasers at one clinic, receiving several treatments at once is not necessary for every patient.

────────────────────────────────────
MAIN TREATMENTS AT KLEAM CLINIC MYEONGDONG
────────────────────────────────────
[ULTHERA PRIME]
Ulthera Prime is a non-surgical lifting device using focused ultrasound energy. You can discuss it with a doctor if you are concerned about reduced skin firmness, changes to your facial line, or sagging in specific areas. The treatment area and number of shots should be decided taking into account facial structure, skin thickness, distribution of subcutaneous fat, degree of sagging, pain sensitivity and any history of previous lifting treatments. A higher number of shots is not more suitable for every patient; what matters is which areas and skin layers are targeted, so confirm the doctor's assessment and plan.
[THERMAGE FLX]
Thermage FLX is a non-surgical treatment using radiofrequency energy to help improve skin firmness. It can be discussed for the whole face or for specific areas such as around the eyes. Ulthera Prime and Thermage FLX use different types of energy and are applied differently, and receiving both is not necessary for everyone. Set treatment priorities with the doctor considering skin condition, facial structure, the change you want, budget and recovery schedule. If you are considering Thermage, it is a good idea to confirm during consultation how to verify a genuine tip, the treatment area and the expected number of shots.
[ONDA LIFTING]
Onda is a device using microwave energy and can be discussed according to concerns about fat and firmness in facial or body areas. The treatment area and number of sessions needed can vary with individual condition. Foreign patients should consider the possibility of swelling or a heat sensation during their trip alongside their sightseeing and departure schedule.
[REJURAN]
Rejuran is an injectable treatment that can be discussed according to skin condition and purpose. Officially confirmed treatment items include Rejuran Healer, Rejuran Eye and the Rejuran HB line. Application area, dose, pain and recommended intervals can differ by product. If you have a specific area in mind, such as around the eyes or the whole face, it is best to send this at the booking stage, and during consultation you should confirm the exact product name and dose.
[SKIN BOOSTERS]
KLEAM Clinic Myeongdong offers consultation on a range of skin boosters including Rejuran. Skin boosters may be considered for skin dryness, texture, fine lines, reduced firmness or overall skin condition. Different ingredients and products can be grouped under the name "skin booster", so decide after confirming the product's ingredients, injection volume, method and recommended interval.
[BOTULINUM TOXIN AND SKIN BOTOX]
Botulinum toxin treatment can be considered for expression lines or concerns about specific over-developed muscles. Skin botox may differ from conventional muscle botulinum toxin in injection depth and purpose, and can be discussed with regard to fine lines, pores and skin texture. Product type and dose vary with treatment area and individual condition.
[FILLERS]
Fillers are injectable treatments that can be discussed for hollow areas, volume or contour changes. The products used and the plan can differ depending on the area, such as lips, chin, around the nose or areas lacking facial volume. If you have had filler before, you should communicate the treatment area, date, product name, dose, any experience of filler dissolution, and any discomfort after previous treatment. Receiving additional treatment while previous filler remains can change the plan, so accurate treatment history is important.
[PIGMENTATION AND PICO LASER]
If you are concerned about pigmentation, freckles, blemishes or skin tone, you can discuss pico laser and various pigment-related treatments. The device used and the number of sessions can vary with the type and depth of the pigment. If you will be exposed to strong sunlight during your trip, pay particular attention to treatment timing and aftercare, use sunscreen and follow the aftercare instructions given by the medical staff.
[ACNE, PORE AND SCAR CARE]
For acne, pores and scars, the treatment plan can differ according to current inflammation and skin condition. Rather than expecting one session to resolve everything in a short period, it is better to confirm the number of sessions needed and the care plan. If you have active inflammation or are taking acne medication, you must state this during consultation.
[LASER HAIR REMOVAL AND SKIN CARE]
KLEAM Clinic Myeongdong also runs laser hair removal and various skin care programmes. For laser hair removal, the number of sessions needed can vary with the area, skin tone, hair thickness and growth cycle. Because skin care and peeling use different products and ingredients, tell the staff before treatment if you have sensitive skin or allergies.
────────────────────────────────────
WHAT TO CHECK BEFORE BOOKING
────────────────────────────────────
[ARRIVAL AND DEPARTURE DATES]
Plan consultation and treatment dates around your period of stay in Korea. If you have injectable treatment or lifting right before departure, you may have to fly with swelling, bruising, redness or a heat sensation still present. If you have an important photo shoot, wedding, performance or long journey planned, please tell us at the booking stage.
[PREVIOUS TREATMENT HISTORY]
It is best to prepare the following as far as possible.
- Treatments you have had before
- Treatment areas and dates
- Products used
- When you last had Ulthera, Thermage or similar
- Experience with fillers or thread lifting
- Any adverse reactions after previous treatment
If you do not know the exact treatment name, materials such as photos or receipts from past treatments can help.
[MEDICATIONS AND HEALTH CONDITIONS]
Current medications, allergies and existing conditions should also be shared during consultation. Some treatments may not be suitable if you are pregnant or breastfeeding, have skin inflammation, or take certain medications such as anticoagulants.
[TREATMENT COSTS]
Costs can vary with the product and device type, treatment area, dose and number of shots, the doctor's plan, anaesthesia or sedation care, additional skin care, and whether VAT is included. Past event prices posted online or another patient's payment cannot be assumed to be the current cost. If you tell Prettykeep your treatments of interest during booking consultation, you can be advised of the costs that can be confirmed and what they include; the final cost may change after consultation with a doctor.
