When it came to dermatology clinics in Cheongdam, I had been highly recommended for a long time. Almost all my friends who had used their services said, “The prices in Cheongdam are higher than those in Jiangnan, but the results are definitely different.” Finally, last year, I decided to give it a try. After comparing several options, I made an appointment at Cheongdam It’s Me Dermatology Clinic—the one known in the industry for Dr. Kim’s dedication to crafting each treatment as a piece of art. I was quite nervous before going, but after the visit, I felt that the money spent was well worth it.

The reception area of Cheongdam It’s Me Clinic features warm lighting and a marble-style counter. The “CHEONG DAM IT’S ME CLINIC” sign is clearly visible.

First impression: the environment at Cheongdam It’s Me Dermatology Clinic was right on target from the moment I walked in.

The clinic is located on the 3rd and 4th floors of the Hansu Building at 14 Seonyeong-ro 157, Jiangnan-gu. It’s less than a 3-minute walk from Exit 5 of the Sindogyeong-rodeo subway station.

At the entrance, a large glass door bears the name “CHEONG DAM IT’S ME CLINIC” in a clean and elegant font, without any overly formal medical atmosphere.

Taking the elevator up, you enter a spacious lobby in off-white tones. Warm lighting creates a cozy atmosphere, and the walls are lined with certification plaques from various brands, instantly conveying that this clinic is respected in its field.

The reception area is tidy and clean, with flowers displayed nearby. There’s no waiting crowd, and the staff were very attentive—asking if I needed water and reminding me not to wear lipstick before the consultation so the doctor could assess my skin properly. These details showed that their service approach was genuine and focused on patient care.

The wait time was short because appointments were scheduled in advance. The staff even offered me water and advised against wearing lipstick to help the doctor better evaluate my skin. These small touches demonstrated a clear commitment to quality service.

The waiting area is spacious, decorated with green plants, and provides a comfortable and private space.

Secondly, is Cheongdam It’s Me Dermatology Clinic a formally recognized institution? The certificates on the walls answer that question clearly.

The wall on that side of the corridor is truly a highlight. Several shelves are adorned with over a dozen certification plaques of various sizes, including official Thermage certifications, Sculptra KOL instructor certifications, Stylage Key Doctor certifications, and Ultherapy genuine product certifications, etc. They aren’t just placed in corners for form’s sake—they are clearly displayed on both sides of the entrance passage.

The certification wall in the entrance corridor shows off the glass doors of IT’S ME CLINIC and a wall full of brand authorization plaques.

I particularly noticed that one Stylage Key Doctor certification was awarded to “Kim Han-gu of Itsumi Clinic,” which means Dr. Kim himself. This indicates that he isn’t just someone who uses the products of this brand; he is an officially recognized key instructor doctor by the brand itself. For injectable treatments, such a certification carries significant weight. Additionally, both Thermage and Ulthera consumables support on-site opening and code verification, something I confirmed during my subsequent consultation.

III. Latest 2026 Fee References for Itme Dermatology in Cheongtan

Here is the quote sheet that the nurse showed me after my consultation; it is for reference only (the actual fees depend on the number of treatments, the area being treated, and the individual treatment plan, and will be determined during the in-person consultation):

IV. Who is Dr. Kim Han-ju, and why does his treatment style have such a good reputation in Cheongtan?

The consultation was conducted personally by Dr. Kim Han-ju. He is around 40 years old and speaks directly, without beating around the bush. He used a skin analysis device to scan my face and immediately said, “Your problem is that your facial contours are starting to sag, and the wrinkles around your eyes are caused by the downward movement of the fat pads in your cheeks. This can’t be solved simply with fillers; you need to address the fascia layer first.” This analysis made me feel that he really understood what he was talking about, and he didn’t try to push me into multiple treatment packages right away.

Dr. Kim’s background: He is a KOL and instructor for Sculptra, certified as a Stylage Key Doctor, and trained to perform Thermage and Ultrasonic Knife treatments. He has been working in dermatology for over 20 years. His core philosophy is “naturalness” – meaning that after the treatment, it’s not obvious that cosmetic procedures were done, but you can tell that your skin looks better when you look in the mirror.

One thing he said during the consultation really impressed me: “Every injection is designed carefully, not just a simple filling.” At that moment, I realized that this doctor wasn’t just going through the motions. The results I saw later confirmed that my jawline became much clearer, and there was no noticeable “injection effect” at all.

VI. How to make the most convenient reservation at It’s Me Dermatology in Korea? My suggestions

I made my reservation through BeautsGO myself. On the platform, you can directly view interior photos of the It’s Me Clinic in Cheongtan, read information about the treatments, and check real-time schedules, which is much more convenient than calling directly—especially for Chinese customers who don’t have to worry about language barriers.

If you have many detailed questions that you need to clarify before making a decision, you can consult via LINE. It’s relatively real-time, and you can send photos and ask questions, making it ideal if you are unsure about a particular treatment but haven’t made up your mind yet. If you have already decided on the treatment and just need to confirm the time, emailing through Gmail is also an option. Generally, a Chinese consultant will respond within one working day, and then you can schedule your appointment.

Director Kim is quite busy, especially during evening appointments on Tuesdays and Fridays. It is recommended to reserve at least two weeks in advance, especially around holidays.
