Lip Flip in REPIC Clinic Gangnam
About the clinic
A lip flip at REPIC Clinic Gangnam in Seoul, South Korea, is a specialized Botox treatment used to enhance the upper lip. A consultation for this procedure may cost around $30, which is fully deducted from the treatment price if you choose to proceed. The clinic is registered with the Korean Ministry of Health and Welfare and maintains a 4.9 rating from 480+ Google reviews.
Advanced Diagnosis and Toxin Selection
Every patient receives a free Mark-Vu or Meta-Vu skin scan before the procedure. This technology provides an RSTI report to help the doctor analyze the skin and muscle structure. You can choose from four different toxin brands for your lip flip:
- Hitox: The Korean standard toxin.
- Coretox: A low-molecular-weight Korean option.
- Allergan Botox: The original imported brand.
- Xeomin: A pure, imported toxin with low molecular weight.
Dr. Kang Mijeong, a board-certified specialist who trained at Seoul National University Hospital, leads the aesthetic department. Dr. Jeon Hyeonji also provides expert care at the facility. For all imported toxins, the doctor opens the vial in front of you to verify the brand and the dose. This makes sure you receive the exact product you selected during your consultation.
Procedure and Recovery
The injection takes only a few minutes and is performed personally by the doctor. You will begin to see changes in 3 to 7 days. The final result typically appears at the 2-week mark and lasts between 3 and 6 months. To get the best results, you must follow specific aftercare steps:
- Do not rub or massage the upper lip for 4 hours.
- Avoid saunas and hot baths on the day of treatment.
- Skip vigorous exercise for the first 24 hours.
Before the visit, tell the doctor if you take blood thinners like aspirin or omega-3. This treatment is usually not recommended for those who are pregnant or breastfeeding. REPIC Clinic Gangnam uses a fair pricing policy where international patients pay the same rates as local Korean residents. You can request a consultation or book a skin scan through the Bookimed platform.

REPIC Clinic Gangnam: more details about the clinic
REPIC Clinic Gangnam is a private medical aesthetics facility in Seoul's Gangnam-gu district. The clinic uses a diagnostic-first approach, with objective data guiding all treatment decisions. Every visit begins with a Mark-Vu or Meta-Vu skin scan to analyze underlying conditions. Doctors personally review these reports with patients before recommending procedures.
Accreditations and Professional Team
The clinic is registered to treat international patients and holds medical liability insurance. Six doctors perform all consultations and device-based treatments personally. Dr. Kang Mijeong, a board-certified Family Medicine specialist, heads the aesthetic department. She completed her residency at Seoul National University Hospital. Dr. Kim Hyojin, a board-certified pediatrician trained at Catholic University St. Mary's Hospital, is also on staff.
Aesthetic Dermatology and Skin Lifting
The clinic specializes in non-surgical lifting and skin rejuvenation using radiofrequency and ultrasound technologies. Specialists use Thermage with AccuREP™ technology to tighten skin. This system delivers cooling pulses and vibration to protect the outer layer while heating the dermis. For targeted care, the clinic uses specialized Thermage tips:
- Thermage Total tip (4.0 cm²) for full-face treatment
- Thermage Eye tip (0.25 cm²) for the area around the eyes
Density RF is also available as a high-frequency option for skin tightening. The clinic integrates Ultherapy and MOXI laser treatments into its lifting protocols. Dr. Yong-Heon Ha, a member of the Korean Society for Aesthetic Laser Medicine, oversees many laser-based procedures. Treatment plans for acne, pigmentation, and redness are adjusted based on the initial digital skin scan.
Injectables and Advanced Scar Care
REPIC Clinic Gangnam provides customized injection therapy for wrinkles, jaw contouring, and hyperhidrosis. Four toxin brands are available:
- Allergan Botox (imported)
- Xeomin (imported)
- Hitox (Korean)
- Coretox (Korean)
Doctors open imported vials in front of patients to confirm authenticity and dose. Wrinkle and jaw injections typically take 10 minutes.
For acne scars, the clinic uses a signature Subcision + Curejet method. This technique releases fibrous bands under the skin and adds Collaum collagen boosters to improve texture. Doctors also perform filler injections tailored to individual facial proportions.
Diagnostic Technology
The clinic uses advanced digital imaging to spot skin concerns before they become visible. Mark-Vu and Meta-Vu scans provide detailed RSTI reports on pores, dryness, and dark circles. Specialists also use digital dermoscopy for mole mapping and assessment. These tools let the team track progress accurately over multiple sessions. All diagnostic data is stored to keep long-term treatment planning consistent.
International Patient Services
On-site interpreters are available for English, Chinese, and Japanese speakers. Arabic, Spanish, and Russian support can be arranged with advance booking. Patients receive clear aftercare instructions and can ask follow-up questions through mobile messengers after returning home. The facility is in Tower 837 and offers free parking.
