INTRODUCTION
────────────────────────────────────
If you want to treat acne, pigmentation and blemishes, facial redness, pores and scars, or skin ageing and reduced firmness during a trip to Busan, you first need an accurate diagnosis of your skin condition. Even problems that look like the same acne or pigmentation can require different treatments depending on the cause and skin condition.
LEE HYUN JAE Dermatology Clinic is a dermatology clinic located in Seomyeon, Busan. Alongside consultations for skin diseases and skin concerns, it offers treatments such as lasers, botulinum toxin, fillers, contouring injections and non-surgical lifting. The director, Dr. Lee Hyun-jae, is confirmed to be a board-certified dermatologist and has taken part in broadcast and medical-information activities on a range of skin-related topics including acne, scars, pigmentation, redness and skin ageing.
International patients can send their skin concerns, visit dates, travel schedule in Korea and preferred consultation language through Prettykeep to check availability.

WHAT KIND OF CLINIC IS LEE HYUN JAE DERMATOLOGY?
────────────────────────────────────
LEE HYUN JAE Dermatology Clinic is located in Seomyeon, Busan's central commercial district. It can be reached from Seomyeon Station, where Busan Subway Lines 1 and 2 meet, so it is relatively easy to get there from major areas such as Busan Station, Haeundae, Gwangalli and Nampo-dong.
The clinic explains that it checks the skin condition and symptoms first and then plans the treatments and procedures the patient needs. The officially confirmed main treatment and procedure areas are as follows.
- Acne
- Gold PTT
- Melasma, blemishes and freckles
- Pores and scars
- Redness
- Botulinum toxin
- Fillers
- Contouring injections
- V-Olet
- Tune Lifting
- Oligio
- Ulthera lifting
- Shurink lifting
- Dermotoxin
- Thread lifting
- Pico laser
A feature of the clinic is that you can discuss several areas together, from skin-disease treatment to pigment and scar care and non-surgical aesthetic procedures. However, receiving several procedures at once is not necessary for every patient. After confirming your current skin condition and the problem that should be addressed first with the medical staff, decide on the order of treatment.

NOTES ON CONFIRMING THE CURRENT MEDICAL TEAM
────────────────────────────────────
Some external medical platforms list doctors other than Dr. Lee Hyun-jae alongside him. However, in some cases a search shows that doctors who previously worked at LEE HYUN JAE Dermatology Clinic are now affiliated with other medical institutions. You should therefore be careful about booking based on the doctor list of an external platform alone.
This article focuses on Dr. Lee Hyun-jae, whose current affiliation can be clearly confirmed as of July 2026. If you wish to be treated by another doctor, please confirm the following during the Prettykeep booking process.
- Doctors currently practising
- Each doctor's areas of practice
- Whether they are board-certified dermatologists
- Whether a specific doctor can be requested
- The treatment schedule on your preferred date
────────────────────────────────────
MAIN TREATMENTS AND PROCEDURES
────────────────────────────────────
[ACNE]
Acne can arise from a combination of factors such as sebum production, keratin in the pores, inflammation and hormones. Managing only the visible inflammation can lead to recurrence, so the current form of the acne and the skin condition should be checked first. At LEE HYUN JAE Dermatology Clinic you can discuss comedonal acne, red inflammatory acne, recurring acne, post-acne pigmentation, acne scars and sebum or pore concerns. Squeezing or irritating acne by hand can worsen inflammation and scarring. Even if acne suddenly worsens during a trip, it is best to have the skin condition checked and receive appropriate treatment.
[GOLD PTT]
Gold PTT is one of the treatments that can be discussed for acne. It is described as a method using a substance applied to the skin together with laser energy, and the treatment plan can differ depending on sebum and acne condition. It is not a treatment applied identically to every acne patient, so the current degree of inflammation, skin sensitivity and previous treatment history should be checked.
[MELASMA, BLEMISHES AND FRECKLES]
Melasma, blemishes and freckles can differ in the cause of the pigment and its depth in the skin. Even if they look similar to the naked eye, the laser and energy settings used can differ, so it is important to be diagnosed first by a board-certified dermatologist. Pigment treatment may not finish in a single session. Foreign patients should confirm both the treatment that can be done during their stay in Korea and the UV-care method to continue after returning home.
[PICO LASER]
The pico laser is a laser device that can be discussed for concerns such as pigment, skin tone and some tattoos. The treatment plan can differ with the type and depth of the pigment and the skin colour. Rather than deciding on the procedure by the device name alone, it is best to confirm the type of pigment to be treated, the laser mode used, the expected number of sessions, the possibility of crusting or redness after the procedure, the sun-protection method and the recommended timing of the next session.
[PORES AND ACNE SCARS]
The treatment for acne scars can differ with their form. Depressed scars, red marks, brown pigmentation and enlarged pores are different problems, so it can be difficult to treat them all with a single procedure. Dr. Lee Hyun-jae has appeared on medical broadcasts about acne scars, explaining treatment principles and approaches according to skin condition. Foreign patients should confirm not only the procedures possible within a short stay but also the expected recovery period and any need for additional treatment.
[REDNESS]
Facial redness can be related to various causes such as vascular reactions, dermatitis, temperature changes, alcohol and skin-barrier damage. Rather than receiving a vascular laser simply because you have redness, the cause should be checked first. In particular, strong procedures on dry or sensitive skin can increase discomfort, so it is best to also assess the state of the skin barrier.
[DRY SKIN]
Dry skin can be caused not only by season and humidity but also by improper cleansing, excessive exfoliation, skin disease and ageing. Dr. Lee Hyun-jae has explained the management of dry skin and redness on KNN medical programmes. If it does not improve simply by applying plenty of moisturiser, or if it is accompanied by itching, weeping or inflammation, dermatology consultation may be needed.
[BOTULINUM TOXIN]
Botulinum toxin can be discussed for expression lines or for concerns about specific over-developed muscles. The dose used and the injection sites can differ with the treatment area. Before booking, it is a good idea to confirm the product used, the expected dose, the treatment area, the date of any previous botulinum toxin, any discomfort after previous treatment and the timing of any additional procedure.
[DERMOTOXIN]
Dermotoxin involves injecting small amounts of botulinum toxin into relatively superficial layers of the skin across many points. The injection depth and purpose can differ from conventional muscle botulinum toxin, and it can be discussed for fine lines, pores, skin texture and sebum. Injection marks, redness or bruising may appear right after the procedure, so consider important events and your departure date.
[FILLERS]
Fillers are injectable treatments that can be discussed to improve hollow areas, volume and contour of the face. The official website introduces not only general fillers but also fillers for the forehead and specific areas. If you have had filler before, tell the medical staff the treatment area, date, product used, dose, any experience of filler dissolution and any adverse reactions after previous treatment. If existing filler may still be present, your current state should be checked before adding new filler.
[CONTOURING INJECTIONS AND V-OLET]
Contouring injections and V-Olet can be discussed for concerns about the facial line or the area under the chin. The two treatments can differ in the ingredients used and the method of application, so they should not be understood as the same treatment based on the name alone. Confirm the exact product name, the area of application, the expected number of sessions and the possibility of swelling after treatment.
[TUNE LIFTING]
Tune Lifting is a non-surgical lifting treatment using radiofrequency-type energy. The method can differ with skin firmness, the facial line and area-specific concerns. Published clinic material notes that for Tune Face lifting you should confirm not only the device but also the medical staff's diagnosis and procedural skill.
[OLIGIO]
Oligio is a non-surgical treatment that uses radiofrequency energy to help improve skin firmness. It can be discussed for the whole face or for specific areas, and the number of shots can differ with skin condition and the goal of the treatment. Whether it needs to be combined with other radiofrequency or ultrasound lifting should be discussed with the medical staff.
[ULTHERA LIFTING]
Ulthera is a non-surgical lifting device using focused ultrasound energy. It can be discussed if you are concerned about reduced skin firmness or changes to your facial line. When planning the procedure, facial structure, skin thickness, the amount and distribution of fat, degree of sagging, previous lifting procedures, the desired change and pain sensitivity may be considered. A higher number of shots is not more suitable for every patient; what matters is whether the necessary skin layers and areas are targeted.
[SHURINK LIFTING]
Shurink is a non-surgical lifting device using focused ultrasound energy. The treatment plan can differ with the area, the number of shots and the depth of the cartridge. Rather than deciding whether Ulthera or Shurink is more suitable by price alone, it should be discussed based on skin condition and the desired change.
[THREAD LIFTING]
Thread lifting is a procedure in which medical threads are inserted under the skin. Unlike laser lifting, discomfort from injection sites, bruising, swelling and movement can appear, so the recovery schedule should be considered carefully. Be sure to confirm the type and number of threads, the insertion area and the expected recovery period.
────────────────────────────────────
WHAT TO CHECK BEFORE BOOKING
────────────────────────────────────
[DISTINGUISH SKIN DISEASE FROM AESTHETIC PROCEDURES]
It is best to state specifically whether you want a purely aesthetic procedure or need care for a skin disease with itching, pain or inflammation. Sharing your symptoms, when they began, what makes them worse and the medication you are using helps with booking preparation.
[TELL US YOUR STAY IN KOREA]
Plan consultation and treatment dates around your arrival and departure. Swelling, bruising, redness or crusting can appear after lasers, fillers and lifting. If you have an important photo shoot or flight, please tell us before booking.
[MEDICATIONS AND ALLERGIES]
The following information must be shared during consultation.
- Current medications
- Prescription products applied to the skin
- Allergies
- Existing skin diseases
- Pregnancy or breastfeeding
- Adverse reactions after previous procedures
[EXPECTED COST]
Treatment and procedure costs can vary with the purpose of the visit, the products and devices used, the treatment area, the number of shots or dose, the number of sessions needed, anaesthesia and aftercare, and whether VAT is included. Past prices posted online or another patient's payment cannot be assumed to be the current cost.
