I’m a late-20s girl from the US and I’m way too into skincare, so of course I ended up getting a treatment while I was in Seoul. After a few days of jet lag + winter air + nonstop walking, my skin looked dull and felt dehydrated no matter how much I moisturized. I literally typed “Dermatologist in Gangnam” into Google Maps and landed on Lalian Cheongdam Clinic in Gangnam, Seoul. It was easy to get to (close to Apgujeong Rodeo Station), and the vibe inside was calm and clean—no chaotic “factory” feeling.
I went in for Rejuran skin booster because I wanted that subtle, healthy bounce and smoother texture—not a dramatic change. The consult felt reassuring: the doctor actually looked at my skin closely, asked what I cared about (texture, dehydration lines, travel dullness), and explained what Rejuran could help with and what the timeline usually looks like. No weird pressure to add a bunch of extras, which I appreciated.
The treatment itself was pretty straightforward. They put on numbing cream first, and during the injections they kept checking in with me. I won’t lie—some spots stung (especially around the cheeks), but it was totally manageable and they didn’t rush. Right after, I had the classic little bumps/redness you get with Rejuran injections, so I wouldn’t schedule a big photoshoot that same day. By the next morning it looked much calmer, and over the next 2–3 weeks my skin started looking more hydrated and smoother, like my face finally got a full night of sleep. Makeup sat better too, and the glow looked natural—not “done.”
They also gave clear aftercare instructions (what to avoid, how to calm the skin), and as a foreigner I felt comfortable communicating the whole time. If you’re considering Rejuran in Seoul, especially around Gangnam, I’d honestly go back to Lalian Cheongdam Clinic on my next trip.
