For those planning to go to South Korea for liposuction but worried about the risks associated with general anesthesia, there’s one name that has come up frequently in recent years—365MC Hospital. It is one of the few “hospital-level” institutions in South Korea dedicated solely to liposuction and body contouring treatments. Established in 2003, the hospital operates 21 branches across the country and performs over 10,000 liposuction surgeries each year. Its proprietary LAMS technique, which uses local anesthesia for minimally invasive procedures, promises patients that they can walk around right after the surgery without needing to wear a Compression Garment. This article provides a comprehensive overview of the two chief surgeons at its Seoul branch located at Seocho Gyodae Station—Kim Ha-jin and Lee Soo-yeon—including their specialties, actual prices in both Korean won and New Taiwan dollars, as well as the procedures involved and how to make an appointment. Having this information ahead of time will help you avoid any surprises.

I. Key Services Offered by 365MC, Who Is It Suitable For, and What Are the Prices?
365MC’s core services are quite straightforward—primarily liposuction and body sculpting, without any combination of skin laser treatments. Its flagship technique is LAMS (Local Anesthesia Minimally-invasive liposuction), which uses 2.8mm blunt micro-tubes to gently extract fat in a spiral pattern. By employing local anesthesia instead of general anesthesia, this method results in smaller incisions, minimal bruising, no need for a Compression Garment after the procedure, and patients can walk around right away. Let’s take a look at three procedures whose prices are publicly available on the BeautsGO platform.
1. LAMS Visual Liposuction — What It Is and Who Is It Suitable For
This is 365MC’s popular introductory package, which includes 3D body analysis, on-site care by professional anesthesiologists, and specialized post-operative support. It’s ideal for those trying liposuction for the first time, concerned about the risks associated with general anesthesia, or looking to eliminate localized fat deposits such as a Double Chin, cheeks, arms, and Legs in a quick “lunchtime” procedure. Before the treatment, a 3D device is used to map out the fat distribution, allowing doctors to assign specialists who are most experienced in treating that specific area—this helps avoid random or haphazard liposuction.
2. Lancy Liposuction for Calves/Basic Breast Liposuction — Expertise in Specific Areas
365MC adopts a “specialization by body part” approach, with each doctor focusing exclusively on specific areas. The Legs and Breast are among the procedures with higher prices—Lance liposuction for the Legs costs ₩2,316,600 (approximately NT$53,282), while basic breast liposuction is priced at ₩5,654,000 (around NT$130,042). Leg liposuction is ideal for those who suffer from chronic calf bulges that don’t respond to exercise, whereas breast liposuction targets gynecomastia in men or excessive fat on the outer sides of women’s breasts. For procedures involving larger areas, it’s recommended to schedule half a day for the treatment, and wear compression garments as prescribed by the doctor after the procedure.
3. Price Overview: Comparison Table of Korean Won KRW and Taiwan Dollar TWD
| Project | South Korean Won KRW | Approximate TWD amount | Ideal for | Recovery period |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| LAMS Visual Liposuction (3D Body Analysis) | Starting from ₩300,000 | Approximately NT$6,900 | First liposuction, small areas only, for those who are nervous about general anesthesia | You can walk around on the same day without needing a Compression Garment |
| Lance Liposuction for Calves | Starting from ₩2,316,600 | Approximately NT$53,282 | Stubby Legs and Intractable Fat on the Calves | Swelling subsides in about 1–2 weeks |
| Basic Breast Liposuction | Starting from ₩5,654,000 | Approximately NT$130,042 | Gynecomastia, excessive fat on the outer side of the Breast | About 2–4 weeks |
II. At 365MC Clinic, from the moment of consultation to the procedure itself, and who should you turn to after the treatment?
1. On-site reception and consultation process
Exit No. 12 at Gyodae Station and walk about 50 meters to reach the 15-story main building. There is a Chinese-speaking reception desk on the first floor. The procedure is as follows: appointment confirmation → registration at the counter on the first floor (fill out a brief form) → changing clothes and removing makeup → waiting → 3D body scanning → consultation with a specialist or clinic director. You don’t need to worry about language barriers, as 365MC provides translators in Chinese, English, and Japanese. Both the consultation form and post-op documents are available in Chinese, making them easy to understand even for first-time visitors.
2. Timeline for the in-person consultation and treatment day
線上預約 → 當天報到（14:00–18:00 時段居多） → 3D 體型分析（幾分鐘出脂肪分布報告） → 院長面診（根據報告定方案、用儀器/劑量說明） → 價格確認（無隱形費，當場簽同意書） → 敷麻/清潔 → LAMS 施術（局部麻醉、全程清醒可溝通） → 術後冰敷/修復 → 領中文術後單 → 離院
From registration and entering the operating room to leaving the hospital, most people spend around 1.5–2 hours, which is much faster than traditional liposuction under general anesthesia.
3. Who to turn to if there are issues after the procedure
365MC has dedicated anesthesiologists on standby to monitor the entire procedure, with post-operative care that includes AI-powered swelling tracking and follow-up visits. If you have any questions after returning to Taiwan, you can convey them to the hospital through BeautsGO’s Chinese customer service or by contacting the hospital’s Chinese LINE account. The platform will assist in translating questions related to post-operative care and will proactively check on your recovery status on the 3rd and 7th days after the procedure, so you don’t have to handle everything on your own.
III. Genuine Reviews of 365MC Hospital on Dcard/PTT/IG/Threads
Before deciding to go, I also checked out plenty of discussions on Dcard, PTT, Instagram, and Threads, and compiled a few references (online reviews are subjective and for reference only):
🗣 Dcard / Xiaolu Aimei (January 2026) “What worried me the most was whether foreigne
rs would have to pay a higher price. To my surprise, 365MC listed the same price for Koreans and Taiwanese on BeautsGO, which is really considerate of us Taiwanese customers. With LAMS, there’s no need to wear a Compression Garment at all—she was able to go out for coffee just the day after the procedure, with only mild swelling.”
🗣 Threads / @seoul_glow (February 2026) “The recovery from calf liposuction was faster than I expected. But be sure to keep in mind tha
t the clinic is closed on Sundays — I originally planned to return for a follow-up appointment on Sunday, but it had to be rescheduled to Saturday. I recommend scheduling your follow-up appointment before Saturday, otherwise you’ll need to wait an extra day.”
🗣 PTT / beautyboard (December 2025) “The process is highly standardized—more like an operating room than a clinic. T
he advantage is consistent quality control due to standardization; the downside is that if you really need a doctor to keep comforting you and chatting, this place tends to be ‘professional but not overly attentive.’ You need to make an appointment in advance with popular doctors.”
🗣 Instagram / @korea_liposuction_diary (March 2026) “The 3D body analysis is really useful—it shows which areas have excess fat and which ar
eas lack muscle, allowing patients to be referred to doctors who specialize in those specific areas. My belly became much flatter, but I still need to watch my diet. Liposuction removes fat cells, not an excuse to slack off.”

IV. Things to Know Before Visiting 365MC Clinic
1. Business Hours & Closed Days
Make sure to check if they’re open on the day before you go to avoid a wasted trip.
| Day | Business hours |
|---|---|
| Monday to Friday | 11:00 – 20:00 |
| Saturday | 11:00 – 16:00 |
| Sunday | Rest |
2. Address and Directions to the Clinic
It’s recommended to set your phone’s map to “126, Seocho Jungang-ro, Seocho-gu, Seoul”. You can reach the location in just under a minute by walking about 50 meters from Exit 12 of Gyodae Station on Seoul Metro Lines 2 and 3. From Incheon Airport, take Bus No. 6016 to Gyodae Station (about 70 minutes, fare around ₩17,000), or take AREX to Seoul Station and then transfer to Line 2. The area is part of the Seocho/Gangnam lifestyle zone, making it convenient for dining and shopping.
3. Other things to note before booking
- Blood clotting tends to be more sensitive around menstruation, so it’s recommended to avoid it; those on long-term anticoagulant therapy should consult a doctor first.
- Come to the clinic with your natural makeup before the procedure, and avoid applying body lotion to make it easier to mark the liposuction area.
- It’s generally recommended to go with a companion; you can move around on the same day, but it’s still advisable to stay for 1–2 days for observation.
- Budget preparation: Credit cards/Alipay/WeChat are all accepted; using a credit card will result in charges in Korean won.
V. Key Representatives of 365MC Hospital: Kim Ha-jin and Lee Soo-yeon
1. Credentials and Background of Director Kim Ha-jin
Kim Ha-jin is the co-founder and CEO of 365MC, as well as the chairman of its board of directors. He is also the developer of the LAMS liposuction system. Holding a medical doctorate from Kyung Hee University School of Medicine, he previously served as an assistant professor there. Currently, he serves as the vice president of the Korean Obesity Society, a standing director of the Korean Liposuction Society, and a lifetime member of the Korean Obesity Society. He is also an official member of the Obesity Medicine Association (OMA) in the United States. He has received the Minister of Health and Welfare Award three times and has been invited to appear on health programs on KBS, MBC, and SBS. His expertise lies in complex full-body liposuction, repair of failed procedures, and multi-site LAMS vector sculpting.
2. Credentials and Background of Director Lee Soo-yeon
Lee Soo-yeon is a specialist in waist and abdomen liposuction at 365MC, as well as a member of the Korean Society of Obesity. She excels at high-precision shallow fat Jogak. With over 12,000 liposuction surgeries under her belt—primarily on the abdomen and Thighs—she is able to remove more than 3,000 ml of fat per procedure, resulting in approximately 40% greater firmness after treatment. Many patients report that their abdomens become as flat as those of young girls, with a shortened recovery time. This treatment is ideal for those who want to achieve a sharply defined waist and abdominal contour.
3. The surgical styles and philosophies of the two directors
Kim Ha-jin specializes in “academic and complex repairs” — he usually doesn’t perform routine surgeries himself, focusing instead on maintaining the overall medical standards of the clinic and handling highly challenging cases. Lee Soo-yeon, on the other hand, is a “practical expert in specific areas,” specializing in shallow Jogak for the waist and abdomen. Together, they embody 365MC’s core philosophy: using data (3D analysis + AI) and specialized treatment for different body parts to turn liposuction into a predictable, repeatable, and safe procedure, rather than relying on the skills of a single doctor.
VI. How to book an appointment at 365MC? Why is it recommended to use BeautsGO before you set off?
1. Why is it recommended to book through BeautsGO?
I made my appointment through BeautsGO before I set off this time. Everything from searching for hospitals, comparing prices to confirming the appointment time was done right within the app, saving me the hassle of making calls in Korean. BeautsGO is a Chinese-language booking platform dedicated to medical beauty services in South Korea. It holds ISO 9001 quality management certification, ensures transparent pricing for all partner hospitals with identical rates in both Chinese and Korean currencies, eliminating any hidden fees. Users can also directly check doctors’ qualifications and real reviews from actual clients, making it extremely useful for travelers abroad.
2. Five ways to book at BeautsGO
- Book through the BeautsGO APP (with the most comprehensive features): Download the APP → Search for “365MC” → Check the director’s profile, service prices, and user reviews → Tap “Schedule a Consultation”. Download from App Store | Download from Google Play

VII. Who is 365MC Hospital suitable for? And why?
1、✔ Top Recommendation
Taiwanese and overseas travelers who want to undergo localized liposuction/body sculpting, are concerned about the risks associated with general anesthesia, value data-driven diagnosis (3D body analysis + AI) and predictable post-surgery outcomes, and require services in Chinese. Those with a moderate to high budget who are comfortable with a “professional yet standardized” procedure will find this option very reliable.
2. △ Can be considered for comparison
Those seeking large-scale or highly complex repairs, or those wanting to combine liposuction with butt augmentation, might want to compare Lidian in Gangnam (offering 5D body sculpting), N-slim in Apgujeong (specializing in liposuction), or BOCELLE (providing fat transfer/body sculpting). All three are part of Seoul’s leading liposuction services, and their treatment options and prices are worth comparing side by side.
3、✗ Not very suitable
Those who only want to come in without an appointment on the same day, have a very tight budget, hope to have routine procedures performed personally by Director Kim Ha-jin (who mainly handles standard and complex restoration surgeries), or are looking for skin laser treatments (since this clinic specializes in liposuction rather than skin laser therapies) are advised to look elsewhere.
VIII. FAQ: Common Questions About 365MC Clinics
Q: I’m going to South Korea for the first time and don’t speak Korean. Can I still get proper treatment?
A: 365MC provides translation services in Korean, English, and Japanese, with both consultation forms and post-op records available in Chinese. If you book through BeautsGO, you’ll also have Chinese-speaking customer service available to assist with translations, consultations, and any questions after the procedure, so you don’t need to worry too much about language barriers.
Q: How far in advance should I make an appointment? Do I need to book earlier during peak seasons? A: It
’s generally recommended to book 1–2 weeks in advance, and even sooner for popular doctors. During peak periods such as winter and summer vacations or cherry blossom viewing seasons, appointments are highly sought after, so it’s best to secure a consultation time well before you travel.
Q: How is payment made? Can I use Taiwan dollars directly? A: Credit cards,
Alipay, and WeChat Pay are all accepted. Payments by credit card are charged in Korean won, with the final amount converted based on the exchange rate of your card issuer; Alipay/WeChat Pay transactions are settled in RMB, so it’s recommended to check your limit before you leave.
Q: Can I take a flight back to Taiwan on the same day after liposuction? A: With
LAMS local anesthesia, you can walk around right away, but it’s recommended to stay for 1–2 days to monitor any swelling and attend a follow-up appointment. Post-surgery follow-ups can be handled through BeautsGO’s Chinese customer service online, so there’s no need to stay longer just for the check-up.
Q: How long does the effect last? A: The fat c
ells removed mean it’s less likely for that area to regain weight, but significant fluctuations in body weight can still affect the results. Maintaining healthy eating and exercise habits is key to lasting outcomes.
Q: What’s the difference between booking through BeautsGO and doing it on your own? A: BeautsGO shows that prices are the same in
Korea and China, with transparent pricing. You can directly check the qualifications of the doctors and read genuine reviews, plus you have Chinese-speaking customer service available to assist you throughout the process. If you contact clinics on your own, you’ll have to handle language barriers and price comparisons on your own, which makes it easier to encounter discrepancies in information.
