Acne scar treatment

  • Where can I get acne scar treatment in Seoul as a tourist, and what does the treatment involve?

    REPIC Clinic Gangnam, about a 7-minute walk from Gangnam Station Exit 4 in Seoul, treats acne scars with REPIC Scar Care — a doctor-performed combination of subcision, CureJet and Juvelook Volume, with PDRN or Rejuran Healer, regeneration care and CO2 shouldering added in the full-face programs — and also offers Potenza RF microneedling and keloid treatment. Which option suits you depends on the type of scar, the area and how long you are staying in Korea, so the plan is decided with a doctor at your consultation; prices are posted in English on our website.

  • Can I fit acne scar treatment into a short trip to Korea, and how should I plan it?

    Yes. REPIC Clinic Gangnam in Seoul sees international patients for acne scar treatment on short stays, and a doctor plans the visit around your arrival and departure dates. Because scar treatment usually works as a series, the doctor will explain what one visit can do and what a follow-up plan would look like; for Potenza, mild redness and swelling for 1–3 days is expected, with full recovery in 5–7 days.

  • What is Potenza, and what should I expect if I get it in Seoul?

    Potenza is an RF microneedling treatment that combines fine needles with radiofrequency energy to stimulate collagen, and at REPIC Clinic Gangnam in Seoul a session takes about 30–60 minutes depending on the area treated. Mild redness and swelling for 1–3 days is expected, with full recovery in 5–7 days; the doctor chooses the tip and settings after examining your skin.

Skin boosters (Rejuran, PDRN, Juvelook, exosome)

  • What is the difference between Rejuran and PDRN injections in Korea?

    At REPIC Clinic Gangnam in Seoul, both Rejuran Healer and PDRN injection are skin boosters made from salmon-derived DNA ingredients: Rejuran uses PN (polynucleotide), while PDRN injection uses PDRN (polydeoxyribonucleotide). Neither is a filler — both support the skin’s own repair over a series of sessions — but they differ in ingredient, product range, session time and typical downtime, which the doctor weighs against your skin at the consultation.

  • Where can I get PDRN (salmon DNA) injections in Seoul, and can I have one on a short trip?

    REPIC Clinic Gangnam, about a 7-minute walk from Gangnam Station Exit 4 in Seoul, offers PDRN injection — a skin booster using PDRN (polydeoxyribonucleotide) derived from salmon — performed by a doctor in about 15 minutes, with around 1 day of downtime. A single session fits easily into a trip, but because its benefits build over a series spaced 2–3 weeks apart, the doctor will explain what one visit can do based on your travel dates.

  • Rejuran, Juvelook, PDRN or exosome — which skin booster should I get in Korea?

    REPIC Clinic Gangnam in Seoul offers four kinds of skin booster — Rejuran (PN from salmon DNA), PDRN injection (salmon-derived PDRN), Juvelook (a collagen booster containing polylactic acid) and ASCE+ Exosome (applied after micro-needling, not injected) — and a doctor recommends one or a combination after examining your skin. They differ in ingredient, how they are given, session spacing and downtime, so the right choice depends on your skin concern and how long you are in Korea.

Botox

  • Where can I get jaw (masseter) Botox in Seoul as a tourist, and can I fly afterward?

    REPIC Clinic Gangnam, about a 7-minute walk from Gangnam Station Exit 4 in Seoul, offers jaw (masseter) Botox performed by a doctor in about 10 minutes, with minimal downtime — washing and makeup are generally fine after 2–3 hours. There is no specific restriction on flying after jaw Botox; for 3–4 days, avoid saunas, hot baths and vigorous exercise, and expect the change to appear gradually over 2–4 weeks rather than immediately.

  • Hitox, Coretox, Allergan Botox or Xeomin — which toxin can I choose at a clinic in Seoul, and how is the product confirmed?

    REPIC Clinic Gangnam in Seoul offers every Botox treatment with a choice of four toxins — two Korean products, Hitox and the low-molecular-weight Coretox, and two imported originals, Allergan Botox and the low-molecular-weight Xeomin — and the doctor decides the product and dose with you at the consultation. All are type A botulinum toxin preparations that differ by manufacturer and purification, so the same dose does not necessarily give identical results; for imported products, the vial is opened in front of you so you can confirm the product and dose.

Laser hair removal

  • Can I get laser hair removal in Seoul on a trip, and how many sessions does it take?

    Yes — REPIC Clinic Gangnam in Seoul offers laser hair removal for the face and body, with a session taking about 20–40 minutes for facial areas and 30–60 minutes for body areas and minimal downtime. Hair reduction builds over a series spaced 4–6 weeks apart — visible reduction usually after 3–5 sessions — so one trip can start a course but not complete it, and sun exposure should be avoided for 2 weeks on either side of a body treatment.

Prices compared with other countries

  • Is Thermage or Ultherapy in Korea less expensive than in the US, Singapore, Japan or Dubai, and how do I compare quotes properly?

    In most of the markets we checked — the United States, the UAE (Dubai), Singapore, Hong Kong, Japan, Taiwan and Russia — published clinic price lists and cost guides put Thermage FLX and full-face Ultherapy above the listed prices at REPIC Clinic Gangnam in Seoul for the same shot counts; the full table with each source, its year and the exchange rate used is on our English guide site. Compare like with like before you decide: the device and tip, the number of shots or lines, the treated area, whether VAT and the consultation are included, and whether a doctor performs the treatment. At REPIC the listed prices exclude 10% VAT and are the same for international and Korean patients.
