Opening a clinic on the 3rd floor of Lotte L7 Hotel: Kleam Hospital Hongdae Branch – why has this 15-year-old local institution chosen this trendy area to offer “one-stop beauty solutions”?

可麗醫院弘大店

Those who head to Hongdae usually think of night markets, cafes, live houses, and trendy boutiques—few ever consider “cosmetic treatments” as part of their itinerary. Yet KLEAM Clinic Hongdae has surprisingly set up its practice on the 3rd floor of Lotte L7 Hotel in Hongdae: Whether you’re tired from shopping, before going to a performance, or staying at L7, you can simply take the elevator up to the 3rd floor to schedule a treatment without having to travel to another area. What’s even more notable is that it’s not a new brand—KLEAM Clinic Hongdae has been operating in Hongdae since 2011. It originated as Toxnfill Clinic Hongdae before being renamed KLEAM, making it a well-established local clinic with 15 years of experience in this area. This article will first explore why they chose to locate their clinic inside a hotel and how they offer customized services. Information on the other branch of this chain in Myeongdong is also available (with links provided later).

In short: Kleam’s Hongdae branch is a locally-owned Dermatology clinic located on the 3rd floor of Lotte Hotel Hongdae at L7 in Seoul. Established in 2011 (originally as Toxnfill’s Hongdae branch), it focuses on customized treatments through its “Atelier of Glow” concept. It’s the perfect choice for those living in or visiting Hongdae’s trendy area, attending performances, or staying at L7—enabling them to look better with just a quick stop. The clinic is easily accessible from the Hongdae entrance station, open until 20:30 on weekdays, and until 17:00 on weekends. Keep in mind that there are numerous treatment options available, and prices need to be assessed in person; it’s recommended to decide first whether you’re looking for lifting, contouring, or skin care services before your first visit.

Who is the Kleam hospital branch in Hongdae? Why did “The Glow Workshop” open on the 3rd floor of Lotte L7 Hotel?

Kleam Clinic Hongdae (registered in Korean as 클림의원홍대점, English name: Kleam Clinic Hongdae) is located in Hongdae, Seoul. It is a Dermatology practice that emphasizes “personalization” as its core brand philosophy. The name KLEAM consists of three elements: K stands for Korean, Gleam means “glow,” and Geulim (그림) means “charm” — together conveying the idea of “uncovering your unique radiance.” The term “빛의 아틀리에” (Atelier of Light) refers to the physical space and treatment process designed to bring this concept to life, treating the clinic as a “workshop dedicated to tailoring light” for each patient, rather than a standard assembly-line approach.

Another often-overlooked aspect of the Kleam Hongdae branch is its “experience level”: its profile on various platforms states that it originated as the Toxnfill Hongdae branch and has been operating in Hongdae since 2011 before changing its name to Kleam. For a business located in an area where people frequently switch shops like Hongdae, having stayed there for 15 years speaks volumes about its strong customer base and deep roots in the community. The fact that it chose to locate itself on the 3rd floor of the Lotte L7 Hongdae Hotel rather than in a standalone building on the street makes perfect sense—as L7 is a hotel that young locals, tourists, and concert goers already frequent. With elevators allowing easy access to the 3rd floor, patients can schedule treatments without having to make a special trip to the clinic, turning it into a convenient stop along the way. If you’re deciding between the two branches of this same brand (the Myeongdong branch and the Hongdae branch), this article on the site already breaks down the key differences between them in detail, making it a great read before you go.

How to get to the Hongdae branch of Kleam Hospital and what time does it open?

Kleam’s Hongdae branch is located on the 3rd floor of L7 Hotel Hongdae at 141 Yanghwa-ro, Mapo-gu, Seoul (서울 마포구 양화로 141, L7호텔 홍대 3층), right in the shopping area around Hongdae Entrance Station (홍대입구역). It’s accessible on foot from this station; it’s advisable to check the specific exit using a map before heading there. For those traveling independently, the biggest advantage lies in terms of time: while most clinics are closed on Sundays, Kleam’s Hongdae branch is open until 8:30 p.m. on weekdays and until 5:00 p.m. on Saturdays and Sundays, making it convenient for people who want to schedule appointments before or after attending performances or those staying at L7 Hotel. Another clinic in the same area around Hongdae Entrance Station is Lovae Dermatology (1 minute away from Hongdae Entrance Station, with identical prices for Korean and foreign patients). Those with limited time can compare the routes between these two clinics.

How does Kleam Hospital’s Hongdae branch “Atelier Customization” work?

Kleam Hospital’s Hongdae branch breaks down “personalization” into three levels. By understanding these three levels, you can determine which category suits you best:

  • Atelier Custom (Customized Services): Utilizing advanced lifting devices such as the Ulthrea Ulthera Prime, Thermage FLX, and Titanium Lifting, this service emphasizes “assessing the specific layers first before determining the number of sessions and depth of treatment,” rather than offering fixed package deals.
  • Atelier Standard (Standard Customization): This category includes contouring and volumizing treatments such as Sculptra, Radiesse, Juvelook, Ellansé fillers, Volume Filler, and Botox, with customized plans tailored to specific areas and needs.
  • Atelier Signature (signature treatment codes): Code Lifting, Midface Lifting, Signature Skin Care, Cell Recovery with stem cells, NAD+ Therapy infusions, and more—these are the clinic’s flagship integrated treatment packages that typically combine multiple procedures.

The advantage of this “layer-based matching” approach is that when you arrive, the doctor will first help determine which category you fall into, rather than immediately pushing the most expensive package at you. If you’re planning to get medical beauty treatments in South Korea, how can you avoid the pitfall of not asking enough questions before the procedure? This article from Gangnam Secret Secret Dermatology outlines three essential rules with a practical checklist of what to ask—perfect to read before you head out.

Those visiting Korea for the first time and still deciding on which device to use can read this article first.

The Pricing Logic at Kleam Hospital’s Hongdae Branch

The prices at Kleam’s Hongdae branch can’t be simplified to a single “fixed rate” — lift treatments vary depending on the treatment area, hair density, and additional services included, while filler and skin-related procedures also require an in-person assessment before a plan can be formulated. For those who want to get a first idea of the costs, there’s a comparison article detailing how to choose between the two branches of the same brand (Myeongdong vs. Hongdae), outlining the specific differences in their approaches. This newly published article about Kleam’s Myeongdong branch (with its Atelier customized services and convenient location for weekend shopping) can also help you decide which one to visit.

Another clinic located inside a “Lotte Hotel” that offers medical beauty services is Dr. Evers’ branch in Seomyeon, Busan (directly on the 7th floor of Lotte Busan, open all week ends). Although they’re in different cities and on different floors, both follow a similar “one-stop service inside a hotel” concept, making it worth comparing their travel routes across cities.

5 Things to Know About the Hongdae Branch of Kleam Hospital: Advantages and Things to Keep in Mind

  • The “Dermatology department in the hotel” boasts a convenient location: it’s on the 3rd floor of Lotte L7 Hongdae Hotel, just a short walk from Hongdae Entrance Station. Those who are shopping, attending performances, or staying at L7 can simply take the elevator up to schedule their treatments without having to travel around the area.
  • 15 years of strong local presence: Originally known as the Toksnfill Hospital Hongdae branch, it began operating in Hongdae back in 2011. It later changed its name to Kleam, giving it an edge over newer stores in terms of loyal local customers and established reputation.
  • The range of treatments offered is extremely broad: from Ulthrea and Thermage to Sculptra, Rejuran, Juvelook, and Hydrafacial — covering lifting, contouring, skin rejuvenation, and advanced integrated therapies.
  • Prices must be confirmed in person: there is no fixed price, as lift procedures vary depending on the number of areas treated. For a comparison between two stores of the same brand, see entries 3295 and 54031 on the site.
  • First, clarify your needs: just because there are many procedures available doesn’t mean they’re all right for you. Before starting, determine whether you’re looking for lifting, contouring, or skin treatment—this way you won’t get led astray during consultations.
