Let’s get things straight first: who is the right candidate for NEWYOUNG?
If you meet any one of the following criteria, this article is definitely worth reading:
1. I don’t want to go to crowded clinics in popular shopping areas; I prefer a quiet and private environment for my treatment.
2. What I’m looking for isn’t the “ cheapest” option, but something that makes me feel at ease—preferably a doctor who can assess my situation before recommendin
g a treatment plan.
3. I’ve had fillers before, but I’m not sure how they’re currently doing, so I’m a bit worried.
4. I want a natural way to look younger, not that kind of “tweakment face” that’s obvious at first glance.
5. I
can communicate in English, or I’m willing to use online booking platforms to overcome any language barriers.
If you’re simply looking for the latest chain stores that rely on customer reviews, seeking the lowest prices, or considering a complete facial transformation all at once, then NEWYOUNG might not be right for you.
To put it simply: NEWYOUNG Dermatology is located just 118 meters away from Roda Station in Apgujeong, Cheongdam, Seoul. The director, Dr. Oh Seo Joon, has a background in internal medicine and previously served as the deputy director of Dermaster. The clinic specializes in one-on-one consultations, safe injections using ultrasound technology, and collagen regeneration treatments, offering the same prices to both local South Korean customers and foreign visitors. You can check the prices and availability in advance through the BeautsGO APP or the BeautsGO WeChat mini-program.
I. A Day Spending at Cheongdam’s Dermatology Clinic
1. Apgujeong Rodao: The “low-key version of Gangnam” in Cheongdam
Anyone who has been to Seoul several times knows that Gangnam is a major hub for medical aesthetics treatments. However, the area around Gangnam Station is truly too noisy—filled with signs of clinics everywhere, crowds of people, and salespeople trying to attract customers. It might be a bit overwhelming for someone visiting there for the first time.
The Apgujeong Rodéo Station offers a completely different atmosphere. This area is considered Seoul’s premium luxury district, home to renowned brands such as Galleria Department Store, Alexander Wang, and Acne Studios. Strangely enough, despite the abundance of high-end brands, the crowds here are not as dense as those in Myeongdong or Hongdae. While walking around, one occasionally encounters a few elegantly dressed South Korean women—quiet and sophisticated in their demeanor.
If you treat Cheongdam as a place worth exploring rather than just going there for a quick injection and leaving, then it’s actually worth spending half a day visiting this area.
Galleria Department Store (Apgujeong Headstore) – One of South Korea’s most renowned luxury department stores; its architecture itself is a landmark. Spending an hour exploring the luxury goods on the first floor is well worth it.
Cheongdam-d
ong Dessert District – Walk from Roda Station in the direction of Cheongdam-dong, and you’ll find many cozy cafes and dessert shops along the way – perfect places to relax after a treatment.
Hannam-don
g Seongsu-dong – If you still have energy left, a 10-minute taxi ride will take you to Seongsu-dong, one of Seoul’s hottest cultural and creative coffee districts in recent years.
For specific business hours and information about the surrounding shopping areas, you can check BeautsGO. The platform usually provides detailed guides to nearby clinics.

II. First impressions upon entering the doors of NEWYOUNG Dermatology
To be honest, I first heard the name NEWYOUNG in a friend’s group. When I tried to search for information about it, I found very little in Chinese language—something that is actually quite rare in South Korea’s Dermatology field. Most popular clinics have their details thoroughly exposed on platforms like REDnote, Dcard, and PTT, while NEWYOUNG seems to have deliberately chosen to keep a low profile.
It was only later that I learned this was a new clinic still in the early stages of building its brand. The director, Dr. Oh Seo Joon, had previously served as the deputy director at Dermaster before opening Abijou and Shinestar on his own. Now, he has established his own clinic called NEWYOUNG.
The first impression upon entering is tranquility. It’s not that kind of cold, sterile silence, but rather a comfortable atmosphere created by warm-colored lighting, off-white walls, and light wooden furniture. There are no loud announcements at the reception, nor any long queues of people waiting. Next to the sofa area, there are a few magazines and a bottle of mineral water, giving the place more of the feel of a luxury hotel lobby than a medical clinic.
Among all the Dermatology clinics in Seoul, NEWYOUNG’s interior design is the most understated one I’ve seen – there are no exaggerated crystal chandeliers, nor any cold, sterile atmosphere typical of a surgical room. Instead, the warm lighting creates a relaxing atmosphere without any sense of sloppiness.
III. The consulting experience at NEWYOUNG Dermatology: The director himself came in person to receive patients.
This is perhaps the most noteworthy aspect of NEWYOUNG. Many clinics claim that “the director personally conducts consultations,” but upon arrival, it turns out that the director only makes an appearance while the actual procedures are carried out by assistants. NEWYOUNG is different.
Dr. Oh Seo Joon, the director of the clinic, was present throughout the entire consultation process. He is a specialist in internal medicine—not plastic surgery, but internal medicine. This means that his medical judgment framework is different from that of traditional cosmetic surgeons; he places greater emphasis on safety assessments, structural evaluations, and risk analyses.
The process for in-person consultations is as follows:
The director first asks about the patient’s medical history—what treatments have been done before, whether there are any allergies, and what issues are currently causing conc
ern. Then, a detailed assessment of the skin and facial structure is conducted—not just by visual inspection; in some cases, ultrasound or B-ultrasound is used to aid the evaluation. Based on the results of this assessm
ent, recommendations are provided—not by immediately suggesting a set of treatments, but by first identifying which options are suitable for the patient and which ones are not necessary at this time. Only finally w
ill the specific treatments and their associated costs be confirmed.
The entire consultation usually takes around 20–30 minutes. If this is your first time visiting a Dermatology clinic in South Korea, it may be helpful to prepare a list of questions you would like to ask in both Chinese and English, as this will facilitate more efficient communication.
IV. Are NEWYOUNG’s devices really that good?
Let me state the conclusion first: Almost all the advanced equipment required is available. I saw the following listed on the price sheet:
Thermage FLX – THE standard for anti-aging and lifting
treatments
HIFU / Ulthera Prime – Deep-layer lifting for the face and ey
es
Potenza – For skin quality improvement
, acne scar removal, and Por
e treatment
ONDA – Facial
lifting and body shaping
E
xcel V – For vascular issues and red veins
Fraxel – For skin regeneration
10THERMA, Shurink Universe, InMode, Density, DoubleTite,
M-Face – A range of lifting devices available
To be honest, the equipment in high-end Dermatology clinics in Seoul is more or less the same. What really makes a difference isn’t the equipment itself, but who operates it, how decisions are made, and what treatment plans are adopted. The advantage of NEWYOUNG lies in the fact that its director himself serves as the key decision-maker; the equipment is merely a tool.
If you want to compare the prices of various medical treatments at different hospitals, you can use the BeautsGO app or mini-program to view detailed information and prices for each hospital, making it much easier to compare options.
V. Safe injections using ultrasound – This aspect truly adds significant value.
If you have previously undergone filler injections elsewhere (such as Filler or Shuyan Cui), but are unsure about the current state of your skin, NEWYOUNG’s ultrasound-assisted examination would be very helpful.
Ultrasound can reveal the true condition of the subcutaneous tissue—such as the presence of nodules, whether fillers have shifted, and whether the deeper structures are normal. Not all Dermatology departments are equipped with this technology; in most clinics in Seoul, doctors still rely on visual inspection and clinical experience for diagnosis.
The director’s approach is as follows: First, we use ultrasound to ensure that the subcutaneous area is safe before deciding whether to proceed with the treatment, what type of treatment to use, and how much of it to administer. Instead of directly promoting a treatment plan right away.
If you fall into any of the following categories, this feature is particularly valuable for you:
I had filler injections done elsewhere before, but now there are lumps or discomfort. I’m not sure
whether the previous fillers are still there or if their distribution is uneven. This is my first time u
ndergoing such injections, so I would like to start in a more safe way. I’m quite concern
ed about the associated risks and hope that objective visual evidence can help me make an informed decision.
VI. What age groups and what needs are NEWYOUNG Dermatology suitable for?
Ages 25-35: First visit to South Korea for Dermatology treatment
For people in this age group, the main services offered by NEWYOUNG focus on skin quality improvement treatments such as Potenza Potenza, hyaluronic acid injections, NEWYOUNG Booster, and PDRN/Rejuran. These treatments are ideal for issues like enlarged Pores, rough skin, dullness, and acne scars.
If you happen to be planning a shopping trip in Cheongdam, you can schedule a treatment session in the afternoon. The recovery time is short, and by the next day, there will be almost no visible traces left.
Ages 30-45: You start to notice that your face is “dropping” downward.
This is precisely NEWYOUNG’s most target audience. If you notice that you need to find a particular angle when taking photos, that your jawline is no longer as distinct as before, or that your Apple Zone has shifted downward slightly, you may want to consider…
Thermage FLX – Full-face tightening
Ultherap
y HIFU – Deep tissue lifting, especially for the jawline
Radiesse / Sculptra – Collagen regeneration; no fillers needed, but enhances facial fullness
Juvelook / Rejuran – Improves both skin quality and collagen levels
The latest prices for these services can be found on the hospital details pages of BeautsGO, where they are usually updated in real time.
For those over 45 years old: a more comprehensive anti-aging approach is necessary.
If the signs of sagging are quite noticeable, a combination of treatments may be necessary: Thermage + Ultherapy + collagen regeneration injections, and possibly even thread lifting. It is recommended to schedule a consultation through BeautsGO first, so that the director can conduct a comprehensive assessment of your face before deciding on the best treatment plan for you.
VII. Equal Price Policy and Payment Methods
NEWYOUNG has a very practical policy: local customers in South Korea and foreign customers are charged the same price. This is particularly important for foreign visitors, as some clinics do charge extra fees to foreign patients, and only upon arrival at the clinic does one realize that the prices are different – which can result in a very poor experience.
The prices listed on the price sheet do not include VAT (South Korea’s consumption tax, which is approximately 10%). This tax will be added during the actual payment process. You can check the reference prices on BeautsGO in advance; these prices usually already include VAT, so you will have a clear idea of the total cost.
In terms of payment, most Dermatology clinics in South Korea accept credit cards (Visa/Mastercard), while some also accept cash in Korean won. It is recommended to confirm the specific payment methods with the BeautsGO customer service during the reservation process.
VIII. Some Real Feedback from Patients at NEWYOUNG Dermatology (Comprehensive Summary)
🗣 Mandy (Taiwan, 35 years old)
“I had Filler injected
elsewhere before, but it caused some lumps afterwards, so I was quite hesitant to try any injection treatments again. The director at NEWYOUNG first used ultrasound to check the condition of my previous fillers, and only after confirming that there were no issues did she plan my Shuyan Cui treatment. The whole process was very reassuring; there was no pressure or aggressive sales tactics at all.”
🗣 Joanna (Hong Kong, 42 years old)
“I’ve been to Cheongdam-dong at l
east ten times before, but this clinic is a new discovery of mine. The environment here is very quiet, completely different from the crowded clinics in popular shopping areas. The director speaks excellent English, so communication is seamless. I had a Thermage FLX treatment on my entire face, and two months later, I noticed a noticeable tightening of my jawline – I no longer need to tuck in my chin when taking photos.”
🗣 Yuki (Japan, 29 years old)
“A friend recommended this place,
saying that the director has a background in internal medicine and places more emphasis on safety than other cosmetic doctors. This was my first time getting Potenza treatment in South Korea. I was a bit nervous when the anesthetic was applied, but the director’s technique was very gentle. A week later, my skin looked much brighter and my Pores were noticeably smaller. The only downside is that the waiting time is a bit long, but it’s still worth it.”

Eleven, finally, a few concluding words
Going to Cheongdam for a Dermatology treatment can be turned into a half-day mini-tour: spend the morning shopping and drinking coffee, have the treatment in the afternoon, and then enjoy a meal near Apgujeong in the evening. NEWYOUNG is located right next to Roda Station, just a 2-minute walk away, so no additional transportation arrangements are needed.
NEWYOUNG is not one of those internet celebrity clinics filled with endless advertisements. If what you’re looking for is a clinic where you can trustingly hand over your face to the doctors, if you prefer a quiet, high-quality atmosphere, and if safety assessments are more important to you than the lowest price, then NEWYOUNG is definitely worth adding to your list of options to consider carefully.
