🔬 Actual Experience at The Heal Dermatology in Sinsa-dong, Gangnam
I booked a direct consultation with Director Kim Seong-min one week in advance via WeChat’s s-sourire service. Upon arrival, a Chinese-speaking staff member greeted me, helped me fill out forms, took photos, and conducted the consultation—the whole process took less than 10 minutes.
📋 First Impression of the Consultation
Director Kim Seong-min’s approach was very thorough—he wasn’t the kind of doctor who just rushes through a check-up. He carefully observed my skin, pressed it to assess its elasticity, and then recommended a treatment plan based on my specific needs. When I asked if I could add another treatment, he actually said it wasn’t necessary for my current condition—this lack of pressure was really reassuring.
