Many sisters have privately messaged me asking, “I heard it’s super hard to get an appointment at v&mj Dermatology. How can I actually make one?” As someone who has successfully booked three appointments there, I’m sharing all my practical experience with you today! This clinic is truly a “hidden gem” in the Korean beauty industry – both local Korean beauticians and celebrities go there for treatments, so the difficulty of getting an appointment is truly five-star 🌟
🎯 Complete guide to booking an appointment at v&mj Dermatology
Based on my three attempts at booking, v&mj Dermatology offers several different ways to make an appointment, each with varying levels of difficulty and response times:
📱 Official LINE account (most difficult but highly recommended)
The official LINE account for v&mj is @vmjclinic. This is the most direct way to book an appointment, but it’s also the most competitive. In my experience, sending a message at 9 a.m. on Monday usually results in a response after 2–3 days. On weekends, you might not get a reply until next Tuesday or Wednesday. It’s best to send messages between 9 a.m. and 11 a.m. Korean time, as this is when the response rates are highest.
💡 Practical tip: When sending your first message, please clearly state in Korean or English the “date range you want to schedule the appointment for”, “the treatment you’re interested in”, and “your name”. This will speed up the response process. Avoid sending generic messages like “Hello, I would like to make an appointment”; such messages are more likely to be ignored.
💬 WeChat reservation (fastest way!

This is my personal favorite way to book an appointment! You usually receive a response within 2–4 hours, and you can communicate in Chinese, so there’s no need to worry about language barriers. This option is especially convenient for those visiting Korea for the first time.
📲 Booking through BeautsGO
By booking through the BeautsGO platform, you’ll typically receive confirmation within 1–2 days. The advantage of this platform is that it offers Chinese-speaking customer service, and there are often special discounts and promotions available. I made my first appointment through BeautsGO, and the whole process went smoothly.
📞 Telephone reservation (not recommended)
It’s almost impossible to get a telephone reservation at v&mj Dermatology. I tried calling between 2 p.m. and 4 p.m. Korean time several times, but the line was always busy. Unless you have a Korean friend who can help you make an appointment on-site, this method is not recommended.

👨⚕️ Introduction to the medical team at v&mj Dermatology
The most attractive aspect of v&mj Dermatology is its medical team. The chief physician, Dr. Kim Tae-hee, is a full member of the Korean Dermatology Association and graduated from Yonsei University School of Medicine. She has over 15 years of experience in the field of cosmetic dermatology. She specializes in treating sensitive skin and offering anti-aging treatments, and many Korean celebrities are her regular clients.
The deputy chief physician, Dr. Lee Min-jung, specializes in treating acne-prone skin and pore problems. She graduated from Seoul National University School of Medicine and has worked as a dermatologist at several large hospitals. Her treatment approach is gentle, making her an excellent choice for those experiencing their first cosmetic procedure.
💬 My personal experience: When I first visited v&mj Dermatology, I consulted Dr. Kim. She carefully analyzed my skin type and didn’t try to push any unnecessary treatments on me. She suggested starting with basic treatments like hyaluronic acid injections instead of more expensive procedures right away, which I found very thoughtful.
🏢 Photos of the interior at v&mj Dermatology
The interior design of v&mj Dermatology is simple and modern, with predominantly white and wooden accents that create a relaxing atmosphere. The waiting area is small, accommodating only about 6–8 people, but it’s cozy and equipped with magazines and drinks.
The consultation rooms are private and offer good confidentiality. The treatment rooms come in both single and double configurations; if you come with a friend, you can request a double room for your treatments. Each treatment room is equipped with its own bathroom and changing area, and the equipment looks brand new.
💉 Details about popular treatments at v&mj Dermatology
1. Rejuvlan Hyaluronic Acid Injection
This is v&mj Dermatology’s signature treatment, designed to repair the skin’s barrier and reduce fine lines. The entire procedure takes about 30 minutes. First, a local anesthetic is applied, and then the doctor uses a hand-held device to inject the hyaluronic acid. The pain level is fairly mild, ranging from 3 to 4 out of 10, mainly in the more sensitive areas of the forehead and chin.
The recovery period lasts about 2–3 days, during which you may notice small needle holes and some redness, but this can be easily covered up with makeup. The effects become noticeable around 1 week later – your skin will appear more radiant, and makeup will adhere better.
2. Thermage
Thermage is a treatment designed to tighten loose skin by stimulating collagen production using radiofrequency technology. The procedure takes approximately 60–90 minutes. First, a conductive gel is applied to the skin, and then the doctor moves a probe over the affected areas. You will feel a warm sensation during the treatment, but it’s not painful.
The results are not immediate; it usually takes 1–3 months to see significant tightening effects. It’s recommended to have this treatment done 1–2 times a year to maintain the results.
3. Picosecond Laser Treatment
This treatment is ideal for addressing issues such as pigmentation and uneven skin tone. The procedure takes about 20–30 minutes and may cause a slight stinging sensation, similar to having a rubber band snap against your skin. The recovery period is around 3–5 days, during which the treated area may form scabs; however, you should not pick at them.
