If you are planning to go to Myeongdong, South Korea for skin treatment, you must have heard the names of many clinics. Today, I would like to talk to you about one of them – Myeongdong LIJIN Clinic. This clinic has been getting a lot of attention on BeautsGO recently, with many people asking questions like “How do I make an appointment at LIJIN?” and “Is it easy to get an appointment at LIJIN?” Some of my friends who have visited this clinic have given positive reviews, so today I will compile a comprehensive guide to helping you make an appointment. Those who are considering going should definitely save this information for later use!
I. First, let’s get to know: What kind of clinic is Myeongdong LIJIN Clinic?
The Chinese name of LIJIN Clinic is “Lizhen Dermatology”. It is located on the 3rd floor of No. 55, Namdamun-ro, in the Myeongdong area of Seoul. The location is extremely convenient – just exit from Exit 5 or 6 of the Myeongdong Station on Line 4 of the subway and it takes about 2 minutes to walk there. If you happen to live near Myeongdong, it’s actually just a short walk from your home. 📍
This clinic has been in operation since 2011 and is a well-established establishment. It has been serving both foreign tourists and local customers in the Myeongdong area for over a decade. The clinic focuses on providing high-end, private services, rather than following a mass-production model. Each customer is treated in a separate treatment room, ensuring a high level of privacy. Director Huang Lizhu is a key figure in this clinic; with over 15 years of experience, she specializes in natural anti-aging treatments, avoids excessive fillers, and adheres to the aesthetic philosophy of “enhancing one’s natural qualities.”
In terms of language, this is also a major strength of LIJIN – it provides services in English, Chinese, and Japanese, and has a dedicated team to assist foreign customers. This is truly very convenient for foreign tourists, as they don’t have to worry about language barriers.
II. What services does LIJIN Clinic specialize in?
Before officially making appointments, let me first introduce to you what projects LIJIN is actually engaged in. This way, you will have a better understanding when it comes time to book an appointment.
Anti-aging and lifting products
In the field of anti-aging, LIJIN is considered one of their strengths, as it is equipped with several genuine high-end devices.
- The Ulthrea version (Ultherapy Prime) focuses on using HIFU to lift the skin. It is suitable for those with blurred facial contours or sagging Apple Zone. According to the official description, its purpose is to “create a natural Lifting effect”, rather than achieving a plastic-like facial appearance.
- Thermage FLX (Custom Thermage FLX) – This radiofrequency treatment not only helps to tighten the skin but also improves the appearance of fine lines and Pores.
- Shurink Universe (HIFU Universe) – the HIFU series, also known in South Korea as “ANEW HIFU”, is specifically designed for shaping the facial contours.
- Onda microwave body shaping – this technique is used for shaping the contours of the body and face, and its effects are enhanced when used in combination with LIJIN’s own lipolytic needles.
Injection fillers
Of course, all the injection treatments commonly offered by clinics in South Korea are available at LIJIN.
- Juvelook (Juvederm series) – Currently the most popular Collagen stimulant in South Korea, the blue bottle version is specifically designed to improve fine lines and enhance elasticity.
- Rejuran Healer – commonly known as the “baby needle” – can significantly enhance the glow of the skin after application.
- Filler injections – precise injection at a single site; suitable for the nose, chin, and Apple Zone.
- Botulinum toxin – for wrinkle reduction and face slimming.
Laser skin treatment services
LIJIN is also equipped with a fairly complete range of laser devices:
- PICOPLUS Pico laser – specifically designed for treating freckles, acne scars, and overall skin lightening.
- CLARITY II – This dual-wavelength laser can be used not only for facial treatments but also for body hair removal.
- Potenza – The radiofrequency-based Potenza technology promotes the regeneration of Collagen and has a significant effect on enlarged Pores and acne scars.
- LDM for 12 minutes – This ultrasonic moisturization treatment from South Korea is very popular and offers excellent hydration results.
III. What are the reservation methods at LIJIN Clinic?
Finally, we have reached the part that everyone is most interested in! There are several ways to make an appointment with LIJIN, and you can choose the one that is most convenient for you. 👇
Method 1: Online reservation through the BeautsGO App (recommended)
This is currently the most recommended method, as the BeautsGO platform provides a complete information page for LIJIN Clinic. You can directly view the clinic’s introduction and its areas of expertise, and then schedule an appointment with just one click. The advantages are as follows:
- There is no need to know Korean; the entire process can be operated in traditional Chinese characters.
- After a successful reservation, you will receive a confirmation notification.
- You can view the reviews and treatment experiences shared by other users.
- Support the customer service of the BeautsGO platform; you can seek assistance immediately if you encounter any issues.
Specific steps: ① O
pen the BeautsGO App or visit the BeautsGO website. ② Search for “LIJIN” or “Lizhen”. ③ Go
to the clinic’s page and click “Book Now”.
④ Select the treatment you want and the desire
d time. ⑤ Fill in your basic information (na
me, contact details). ⑥ Submit the request and
wait for the clinic to confirm it.
Method 2: Official website reservation form
LIJIN has its own official website at www.lijinclinic.com, which includes an English contact form at the bottom of the page. When filling out this form, you need to provide the following information:
- Name
- Date of Birth
- Phone Number
- Email address
- Interested services (Lifting / Contouring / Skin Booster / Various Programs / Others)
- Preferred appointment date and time
- Leave a message or specify any special requirements (optional).
⚠️ Important notice: Filling out the form merely submits your application; it does not guarantee a successful reservation. You must wait for a confirmation from the clinic staff before your reservation becomes official. It is recommended to submit your application at least 1-2 days in advance.
Method 3: Direct contact through communication software
LIJIN supports a variety of communication software, making it quite international in nature.
- WhatsApp – Suitable for those who are accustomed to using international communication apps
- WeChat is extremely user-friendly for Chinese tourists.
- LINE – It should be very user-friendly for users in Taiwan and Japan.
- KakaoTalk – the most commonly used instant messaging app among South Koreans
Just send them a message and ask, “I would like to schedule the XX service. Are you available on XX date?” Usually, they will respond within 1 to 2 working days.
Method 4: Make a direct reservation by phone or email.
- Telephone: 02-2039-3585 (can be called directly from within South Korea)
- Email: [email protected]
If your Korean is good enough, making a phone call is the fastest way. If you find international long-distance calls troublesome, sending an email is also an option, although the response time might be slightly slower.
IV. What is the process for seeking medical treatment at the hospital?
After successfully making an appointment, many people may wonder, “What is the process I need to follow when I arrive at the clinic?” Here, we have compiled a detailed guide on the steps you need to take upon arrival:
Step 1: Register at the hospital
Bring your reservation confirmation with you when you arrive at the clinic, and inform the reception staff of your name and reservation details. The staff will ask you to fill out a basic skin consultation form, which includes questions about your past allergy history and any previous medical beauty treatments you may have undergone. This information will help the doctor understand your skin condition more quickly.
Step 2: Individual one-on-one consultation with a specialist
This is one of the areas where LIJIN does particularly well—they don’t follow that kind of assembly-line approach where “the nurse just finishes the procedure quickly and moves on to the next patient.” Director Huang or the relevant specialist doctors will conduct a one-on-one skin analysis to understand your needs, the results you want to achieve, and your budget. Based on these details, they will provide professional advice—not necessarily promoting the most expensive options, but rather recommending the plan that is truly suitable for you. I really appreciate this approach. 😊
Step 3: Treatment on the same day
If the treatment is confirmed on the same day, the actual duration usually ranges from 30 to 90 minutes, depending on the specific procedure. After the treatment, the clinic will typically provide sedative care (such as ice compresses or soothing facial masks), and staff will also inform you of any post-treatment precautions.
Step 4: Postoperative guidance
After the treatment is completed, the doctor will provide personalized post-treatment recommendations, including when it is safe to wear makeup, whether specific skincare products are necessary, and when follow-up appointments are required. It is important to pay close attention to this information and feel free to ask any questions on the spot if you have any doubts.
V. How are the prices of LIJIN calculated? Are there any reference prices available?
To be honest, this is something that slightly confuses people about LIJIN – neither their official website nor the BeautsGO page provides a detailed price list. This is a common practice in many high-end clinics in South Korea, as they tend to “develop a customized treatment plan based on your specific circumstances after a face-to-face consultation before providing a quote”, rather than listing prices online in advance.
However, based on market trends and the general pricing of similar projects, I can provide you with a reference point:
| Project categories | Reference price range (Korean won) | Explanation |
|---|---|---|
| Ulthrea (Ultherapy Prime) | Starting from ⩱1,500,000. | The number of treatments and the area to be treated may vary accordingly. |

| Rejuran (Rejuran HB) | Starting from ¥600,000 | Hydrofiller injections are charged based on the dosage used. |
| Onda microwave body shaping | Starting from ⩉900,000 | Body + facial contours |

VII. References to Real User Reviews
The number of user reviews for LIJIN available online is not particularly large at present, but those who have tried it have given fairly positive feedback, which mainly focuses on the following aspects:
The doctor is very professional; he isn’t the kind who tries to sell services right away. Instead, he analyzes my skin condition and recommends suitable treatment options, rather than constantly suggesting expensive procedures. This really impressed me.
“The environment is very clean, and there are separate treatment rooms, so privacy is well maintained. Language is absolutely no issue – the staff can speak Chinese, so communication is smooth.”
“After undergoing the Pico laser treatment, my skin really started to look brighter about two weeks later. The post-treatment care instructions were also very detailed, and the recovery period wasn’t as difficult as I had imagined.”
Currently, BeautsGO has a score of 5.0 out of 5.0 ⭐. Although the number of reviews is not large, it is clear that those who have used the service are generally quite satisfied. It should be noted, however, that when the number of reviews is small, the reliability of the scores is limited. Therefore, it would be advisable to compare the ratings from several different platforms before making a decision.
VIII. Things You Need to Know Before Going to LIJIN
- It is recommended to make a reservation 1-2 days in advance, especially on weekends and during South Korea’s holidays, as the schedules are likely to be full.
- It is recommended to bring your passport on your first visit to a clinic, as some clinics require real-name registration.
- Since the prices are not publicly disclosed and transparent, it is recommended to obtain quotes through the BeautsGO customer service or by directly contacting the relevant institutions, in order to avoid exceeding your budget upon arrival.
- After the procedure, some time should be reserved for recovery, especially for laser treatments, which usually require 3 to 7 days for the skin to heal.
- Language is not an obstacle; with Chinese-language services available, there is no need to worry about communication issues.
- Located in the heart of the tourist area, patients can take the opportunity to visit Myeongdong while receiving treatment, enjoying a one-stop experience of dining, shopping, and entertainment.
IX. Frequently Asked Questions
Q1: Can a reservation made through LIJIN be cancelled or rescheduled?
Sure, but you need to notify the institution in advance. It is recommended to inform them at least 24 hours in advance through the same channel you used for your original reservation (BeautsGO, email, or messaging app) to cancel or reschedule the appointment.
Q2: What do I need to prepare for my first visit to LIJIN?
It is recommended to bring your passport (which may be required for registered consultations), prepare in advance a list of questions you would like to ask the doctor, and have a basic understanding of your own skin condition (for example, what issue you would like to improve the most).
Q3: Is LIJIN suitable for people who are doing South Korea medical beauty treatments for the first time?
Perfect! Their service is primarily targeted at foreign tourists, so there are fewer language barriers and the procedures are relatively transparent. Moreover, the doctors tend to go for more natural results and won’t recommend drastic changes. For beginners, this represents a starting point with relatively low risks.
Q4: What are the differences between Ulthrea from LIJIN and the locally produced HIFU devices in South Korea?
The Ulthrea (Ultherapy Prime) is currently the most widely used device in the world, with the richest clinical data available. It has been approved by the FDA, and its treatment depth can reach the SMAS layer, making it the gold standard for non-surgical facial lifting. The local versions of the HIFU device in South Korea are usually cheaper, but the effectiveness and safety data vary. When choosing a device, it is advisable to consult a doctor who can provide recommendations based on the condition of your skin during a personal consultation.
Q5: Is it guaranteed that reservations made through BeautsGO for LIJIN services will be confirmed?
BeautsGO is a legitimate medical beauty appointment platform. Once an appointment is successfully made, the platform will keep records of it and provide customer service support. In case of issues such as excessive number of appointments at a particular clinic or other problems, they can be resolved through BeautsGO’s customer service.
