At the end of last year, I planned a trip to Seoul with some friends, and we all decided to take the opportunity to get some skin care treatments. After exploring our options, we found that Myeongdong offered many choices, but in the end, we chose Abijou mainly because of its convenient location—right next to the ibis hotel. It took less than five minutes to walk there from the shopping streets in Myeongdong. Before going, I did some research, and now I’d like to share my real experiences with you.
1. Why did we choose Abijou’s Myeongdong branch? What were my thoughts before the consultation?
To be honest, we chose Myeongdong simply because it was convenient. We were staying nearby, so we didn’t want to travel all the way to Gangnam. Later, I learned that Abijou is a well-established Korean dermatology chain that has been operating since 2006. They have several branches in Seoul and eighteen throughout the country.
One thing that really attracted me was their website, which emphasized that all their equipment was genuine and original. For example, they used the American version of FLX for Thermage and the American version of Ultherapy for their treatments. This was important to me because I had done some research and found that counterfeit equipment was a serious issue in the market. So this guarantee really put my mind at ease.
2. Popular treatments and current prices at Abijou’s Myeongdong branch in 2026
Here is a list of the treatment prices I found (for reference only; please confirm with the staff on-site):
| Treatment | Reference starting price (Korean won) | Notes |
|---|---|---|
| American version of Thermage FLX (600 sessions) | Starting from 590,000 | Officially certified by the US FDA |
| US version of Ultherapy | Starting from 1.2 million | Full-face lifting and anti-aging treatment, including the eye area |
| Lizhu Lan Rejuran Salmon DNA injections | Starting from 800,000 | Rehabilitates skin texture and improves pores |
| Hyaluronic acid injection (1cc) | Starting from 97,900 | Multiple brands available to choose from |
| Botox | Starting from 19,700 | Face slimming, wrinkle removal, leg slimming, etc. |
| Jojoba Hydrating Injection SKINVIVE | Please consult separately | Moisturizing and skin rejuvenating |
| Radiesse | Please consult separately | Deep filling for lifting effects |
| Basic Skincare | Consult separately | Cleaning, hydration, etc. |
A friend of mine had Thermage treatment there, and she said the nurses provided Chinese translation services during the explanation, so there were no communication issues. This is really important for Chinese customers, especially since it involves medical treatments; language barriers can easily lead to misunderstandings.
III. What genuine equipment does Abijou Yamei Zhu have? Is the number 350 credible?
The official website states that the entire Yamei Zhu system is equipped with over 350 KFDA-certified medical devices, and the popular anti-aging equipment has also received FDA certification in the United States. I saw several of these devices on site, and the staff said they could provide the original certification documents for each one; anyone with doubts could verify them on the spot.
They also offer a quick treatment series called “Abijou Express,” which is designed to complete basic skincare in a short time, making it ideal for customers with limited travel time. This is very practical for us travelers with busy itineraries.
IV. Introduction to the medical team at Abijou Yamei Zhu’s Myeongdong store
The doctor I saw that time was a Korean dermatologist, and the translator told me that she had been in this field for over ten years. According to the information I had researched before, some of the key doctors at Abijou Yamei Zhu’s Myeongdong store are:
- Director Yoon Je-joo: Specializes in designing comprehensive treatment plans based on each customer’s skin type, claiming to achieve the best results by combining multiple treatments.
- Director Kim Deok-ho: Specializes in anti-aging treatments and is known for its precise procedures and personalized approaches; has an excellent reputation.
At the clinic, I found the consultation process to be quite thorough. It wasn’t the kind of place where you get pushed for services immediately upon entry; the doctor would first observe your skin condition before giving recommendations. Of course, everyone’s experience may vary, so I suggest you go and consult for yourself before making a decision.
