Going to Busan for fun and taking the chance to get a facial treatment at Seomyeon sounds perfect—until you check their official website and discover that they’re closed on Sundays, only accept appointments in the evenings on weekdays, and require booking through a foreign-language interface first. Several of my friends ended up panicking in LINE groups once they arrived in Busan, asking, “How exactly do I make an appointment at THE FACE?” Only to find that all slots were already booked and they had to reschedule. So rather than discussing prices or post-laser care (which we’ve covered in other articles), this piece will focus directly on the biggest hurdle many face: booking an appointment at THE FACE’s Seomyeon branch in Busan. We’ll go over three different ways to do it and rank them for you.
In short: BeautsGO is the top choice for bookings—offering a Chinese interface, real-time availability checks, and transparent pricing. LINE’s Chinese chat account @901taiqf comes next, ideal for asking detailed questions. Sending an email via Gmail works best if you attach a photo of yourself without makeup first. They’re closed on Sundays, so don’t schedule your trip to Korea on that day.
Actual ranking of booking methods at THE FACE Busan Seomyeon branch: Which of the 3 channels responds fastest?
Just like with a “fully reservation-based” system, the response speeds through different channels and the level of detail available vary greatly. I’ve tried all three ways to make appointments at THE FACE’s Seomyeon branch in Busan, and I’ll rank them for you right away—this is also why, when we wrote about making appointments at THE HEAL’s Dongdaemun branch earlier, we used the same “hands-on testing ranking” approach (3 Ways to Make Appointments at THE HEAL Dermatology’s Dongdaemun Branch: A Hands-On Ranking).
A Chinese interface, real-time availability checking, transparent pricing, and the ability to verify the qualifications of specialized doctors. It offers the fastest response among the three options and minimizes the risk of missing available slots, making it ideal for those visiting Korea for the first time who want to compare prices and secure their preferred time slots at the same time.
✅ Ideal for: Those whose itinerary isn’t finalized yet and want to secure a date first before buying flights.
Replies are quick — you can ask questions while making a decision (treatment plans, skin type, availability can all be discussed), making it ideal for those still on the fence and looking to hear advice from real people. The downside is that you have to wait during peak hours, which isn’t as instant as with BeautsGO.
✅ Suitable for: Those with many questions who prefer to chat first before scheduling a consultation.
It’s best for those who first attach a photo of themselves without makeup and clearly outline their requirements as a record—this way, it won’t be immediate but everything will be well-documented. For those whose schedule is already set but just need to reserve a slot, this option is the most reliable.
✅ Suitable for: those with a fixed itinerary who want to keep a written record.
Before booking at THE FACE Seomyeon Branch in Busan, make sure to check these 5 items first: details that foreigners often miss
Don’t wait until you get to the clinic to realize you forgot something. This checklist is based on the common mistakes we’ve made while running a “fully appointment-based clinic” (ELBLANC located in Seomyeon follows the same approach; you can refer to ELBLANC’s booking procedure guidelines for its Busan Seomyeon branch).
- ☑ First, confirm the available schedule: the clinic is closed on Sundays, so avoid scheduling your arrival day in Korea for Sunday. Services are available until 19:00 on weekdays and until 17:00 on Saturdays.
- ☑ Confirm the language service on the day: The Seomyeon branch has staff available to assist, but it’s recommended to ask in advance what language and at what time the service will be provided.
- ☑ Understand cancellation/change policies: Most require 24 hours’ notice in advance, and last-minute changes may affect future booking credit.
- ☑ Prepare your passport or foreigner registration card: It will be needed for both making an appointment and on-site verification; saving a photo on your phone works too.
- ☑ Pre-procedure tips: Avoid heavy makeup on the day of the procedure, don’t drink alcohol the night before, and stop using acidic skincare products for 2–3 days for better results and comfort.
What exactly is the background of this place? In a nutshell, here’s THE FACE’s position in Seomyeon.
THE FACE is a clinic located in Seomyeon, Busan, known for its philosophy of “natural results that look effortless yet significantly improve appearance.” Specializing in Dermatology, it offers a range of EBD lasers and minimally invasive treatments such as the Ulthrea (美版超聲刀), Shurink (韩版超声刀), Onda, Inmode FX/FORMA, Pico (Clarity II), Botox, fillers, and Skinbooster. Unlike many shops in Seomyeon that focus on quick-service packages, this clinic emphasizes thorough pre-treatment assessments and customized treatment plans tailored to each patient’s age and skin type. That’s why taking some time to discuss your needs during the consultation can be even more beneficial than going straight there without prior discussion.

Price Strategy at THE FACE Seomyeon Branch in Busan: How to Allocate Your Budget Wisely
The price of THE FACE isn’t a single figure—it’s determined by three factors: whether it’s a single treatment area or the entire face, the American version versus the Korean version (the American version uses original probes that deliver deeper penetration at a significantly higher cost; the Korean version is more affordable and ideal for those starting with partial treatments), and whether there are any promotional offers available. If you’re visiting for the first time, it’s wise to try Pico Toning or the Korean version of HIFU on specific areas first to see if you like the results before going for a full-face treatment package. We’ve detailed all the pricing components in our article “A Honest Breakdown of THE FACE Prices in Busan,” so check that guide beforehand to get a clear idea of the cost range.

Pre- and post-surgery tips: A checklist to keep you calm on your first visit
Preoperative Preparation
- Prepare natural light, no-makeup photos: front view, side views, and 45-degree angle — do not use beauty filters.
- Medical history inquiry: Are you taking aspirin, and do you have a tendency to develop angioedema?
- Be specific about your goals: Clearly state “I want to reduce sagging/dark circles,” rather than just saying “I want to look better.”
- Avoid acidic skincare products and exfoliation 3 days before the procedure.
- Avoid heavy makeup on the day of the procedure and refrain from drinking alcohol the night before for better comfort and results.
Post-surgery precautions
- Apply adequate sun protection: The skin is sensitive after surgery, so both heavy protection (hats/umbrellas) and gentle sunscreens are essential.
- Gentle hydration: Focus on basic moisturization for the first three days, avoiding irritating ingredients.
- Avoid saunas, alcohol, and heavy pressure on the injection area for one week.
- Avoid lying flat and touching the injection area for 4 hours after Botox treatment.
