At the end of last month, I went to Busan and stayed for five days and four nights. Initially, my plan was simply to enjoy the seafood in Gwangan-ri and stroll along the beach in Haeundae. However, a friend who went with me suggested, “Since you’re already in South Korea, why not take the opportunity to get some HIFU treatment while you’re here?” Immediately, the two of us started researching on BeautsGO and found that the areas in Busan dedicated to medical aesthetics are highly concentrated, and each area is actually suitable for different types of treatments.
After returning, many Taiwanese girls around me also asked me, “Which area in Busan is actually the best place for medical beauty treatments?” Since we happened to visit all three areas this time (Seomyeon, Nampo-dong, and Haeundae Centum City), I thought it would be useful to compile a detailed review and share it with everyone.
I. The division of the medical beauty market in Busan: How to choose between Seomyeon, Nampo-dong, and Haeundae?
Busan is quite different from Seoul. In Seoul, medical beauty clinics are mainly concentrated in commercial areas such as Gangnam, Myeongdong, and Hongdae. In Busan, the three main areas for medical beauty treatments each have their own strengths:
| business district | Representative clinic | The greatest advantage | Suitable for |
|---|---|---|---|
| Seomyeon | Seomyeon, west of Busan | Direct access to the subway station, convenient transportation, and prices comparable to those in Korea | For tourists visiting Busan for the first time and looking to quickly complete their cosmetic procedures |
| Nampo-dong | JRYN Nampo-dong | Tourism combined with medical aesthetics – a one-stop solution, with friendly language services available | Girls who have planned to go shopping in Jagachi/Nampo-dong |
| Centum City (Haeundae District) | miul Dermatology, Centum City | Combining the shopping experience at ANEW Centum City with its state-of-the-art facilities | Girls who enjoy shopping and taking the opportunity to improve their appearance at the same time |
How to choose among these three options? Read on to learn about our practical experiences.
II. Busan Barog Seomyeon Store: A convenient option with direct subway access
The location of barog, right Seomyeon of Busan, is truly extremely convenient – just exit Exit 1 at the Seomyeon stations on Line 1 or Line 2 of the subway, and it takes only two minutes to get there. For tourists like us who are carrying luggage, this is truly a godsend.
The most prominent feature of Barog is their “same price for Chinese and South Koreans” policy – foreigners pay exactly the same amount as local South Koreans, without any hidden surcharges. This was particularly noticeable when we compared Barog with other clinics, as some institutions do charge foreigners higher prices. With Barog, there is no such concern at all.
III. Price reference for the latest project in 2026 at Barog, Seomyeon, Busan
| Recommended projects | Reference price | Explanation |
|---|---|---|
| Korean version of HIFU (Shurink) | Starting from ¥150,000 | Quotations are provided based on the specific area and the number of hairs to be treated. |
| Thermage FLX | Please visit BeautsGO for more information. | Different probes for the face/eyes |
| Juvederm injections for young women | Please visit BeautsGO for more information. | Filler injection |
| Juvelook collagen needles | Please visit BeautsGO for more information. | The collagen injection that has become very popular in South Korea recently |
Thermage FLX and the Korean version of HIFU, Shurink, are the treatments most frequently requested by foreign customers at Barog. We took a photo on site; the environment was very clean and bright, and the waiting area had sufficient space.
IV. Busan JRYN Nampo-dong: A cost-effective option that allows you to beautify yourself while enjoying your trip
Nampo-dong has always been a major tourist attraction in Busan – the Jagachi Fish Market, Gwangbok-ro Fashion Street, and the BIFF Cinema are all within walking distance. JRYN Nampo-dong is located right in the heart of Nampo-dong, just a five-minute walk from the Nampo-dong subway station. After undergoing any medical beauty treatment, visitors can easily head nearby to enjoy some seafood.
The price of JRYN in the Nampo-dong area is quite affordable. After comparing it with several other nearby clinics that provide friendly foreign language services, we found that JRYN offers a significantly better value for money. The discounted package that includes the Thermage FLX 600 device and 2 cc of Rejuran costs ₩1,890,000, which is approximately less than 45,000 New Taiwan dollars—even more cost-effective than having the treatment done in Taiwan. Moreover, this package includes the use of Thermage’s original equipment manufactured in South Korea.

VI. Busan Miul Dermatology, Centum City: One-stop experience for shopping and medical aesthetics treatments
The name Centum may seem a bit unfamiliar to many people when they hear it for the first time, but in fact, it is located right in the Haeundae area, next to the Shinsegae Centum City department store – Busan’s largest shopping mall. The miul Dermatology clinic is situated on the second floor of the Forena Centum City mall, so after receiving your medical beauty treatment, you can simply go downstairs to shop around without wasting any time at all.
The advantages of miul lie in its state-of-the-art equipment and excellent environment. Coupled with the geographical location of Centum City, it is extremely convenient for girls who originally plan to shop at New World Centum City. Their Thermage and Lifting treatments have a good reputation in Busan. It is recommended to make reservations in advance through BeautsGO, as it can sometimes be difficult to get a spot during peak times.
VII. A comparative analysis of medical aesthetics services in Busan’s three major commercial districts: Which one offers the best value for money?
| Comparison items | Seomyeon side of the barog | JRYN Nampo-dong | miul Centum City |
|---|---|---|---|
| Subway transportation | Exit 1 of Seomyeon Station, in 2 minutes | It is only a 5-minute walk from Nampo-dong Station. | It only takes 3 minutes to walk from Centum City Station. |
| Reference price of HIFU | Starting from ¥150,000 | Starting from ¥100,000 | Please visit BeautsGO for more information. |
| Remage Package | Please visit BeautsGO for more information. | FLX + Rejuran ₩1,890,000 | Please visit BeautsGO for more information. |
| Foreign language services | Yes (English/Chinese) | Yes (English/Chinese) | It is recommended to make a reservation in advance to ensure your place. |
| Peripheral functions | There are numerous restaurants in the Seomyeon commercial district to the west. | Shopping in Jagache + Nampo-dong | New World Centum City Department Store |
| The same price in China and South Korea | ✅ Yes | ✅ Yes | Please confirm in advance if a reservation is required. |
From a price perspective, the HIFU treatment offered by JRYN in Nampo-dong starts at ₩10,000, making it the cheapest among the three options. In addition, there are also package discounts that include Thermage + Rejuran treatments. If your budget is limited and you want to undergo multiple procedures at once, Nampo-dong is undoubtedly the best choice due to its high cost-performance ratio.
However, if you are already tired after traveling from Seoul and just want to get things done quickly and efficiently, the direct subway connections in the Seomyeon area of barog, along with the Chinese-speaking services available there, are relatively more convenient.
