Manual glow injection! Make an appointment at LIJIN clinic in Myeongdong – seize this opportunity and you’ll surely benefit! The director personally performs the injections without relying on others. The 2026 reservation system is simply outstanding!

The hyaluronic acid injection is truly the best example of the adage “you get what you pay for”. For solutions of the same 3ml volume, the results achieved by machines versus manual injections differ so significantly that they could be considered two completely different treatments.

Among all the hyaluronic acid injections I tried in Seoul over the past two years, the ones administered manually at Lijin Clinic (Dermatology) are definitely my top choice. The problem is… they’re so popular that it’s even harder to get a reservation, because everyone knows how good they are. Today, I’m sharing with you the complete reservation guide for Lijin Clinic, so you can also secure a spot for a manual injection administered by the director himself.

🏥 Lijin Clinic: A quick overview of Myeongdong

📍 Clinic Information

Lijin Clinic, located in Myeongdong, Jung-gu, Seoul, is a medium-sized Dermatology practice that specializes in hand-administered injections as its core technique.

• Address: Myeongdong, Jung-gu, Seoul (exact address will be provided after reservation)
• Transportation: Exit 8 of “Myeongdong Station” on Line 4 of the subway, approximately 5 minutes on foot
• Opening hours: 10:00~19:00 (Monday to Saturday), closed on Sundays
• Representing the dean: Dean Lijin
• Signature treatments: hand-administered glow injections, Rejuran, PDRN, and customized injectable beauty treatments

⭐ Why is the hand glow treatment at Lijin such a popular option?

Simply put, there are three reasons for this:

1. The dean performed the procedure himself; he was neither a nurse nor a medical assistant – such a thing is quite rare in Myeongdong.
2. Zero-leakage technology ensures that the utilization rate of the medication approaches 100%.
3. Limited reception: Only a fixed number of guests are admitted each day to ensure that everyone gets their proper time.

So you now understand why there’s such a rush, right? The number of slots available each day is limited, and if you schedule too late, you might have to wait until next month.

📲 How to make an appointment at Lijin Clinic in Myeongdong

Lijin has an official customer service account on KakaoTalk, and the response times are very fast (usually within 1 hour on weekdays).

Reservation process:

1. Open KakaoTalk and search for “리진피부과” or “Lijin dermatology”.
2. Send a message: “Reservation + Name + Hand-held Glow Treatment + Desired Date”
3. The customer service will inform you of the available appointment times (usually providing 2 to 3 options).

(Translation: Hello, I would like to make a reservation. Name: XXX, treatment: hand-held hyaluronic acid injection, desired date: XXX, contact information: XXX)

🌐 Method 2: Online reservation via the official website

Lijin’s official website offers a Traditional Chinese interface, which is particularly convenient for Taiwanese tourists.

⏰ Tips for the best time to schedule a consultation

📅 When is the best time to make an appointment?

Based on my statistical experience, the difficulty of making an appointment at Lijin Clinic is ranked as follows:

Time period	Difficulty	It is recommended to plan in advance.
Saturday, 10:00 AM to 12:00 PM	⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Extremely difficult	3 to 4 weeks
Saturday afternoon, from 14:00 to 17:00	⭐⭐⭐⭐ Difficulties	2 to 3 weeks
Every weekday, from 17:00 to 19:00.	⭐⭐⭐ Medium level	1 to 2 weeks
During regular weekdays (from Tuesday to Thursday)	⭐⭐ Relatively easy	3 to 5 days
All day on Monday	⭐ The easiest way	1 to 3 days

🔥 Booking tips

• At 10 a.m. on the 1st of each month: Lijin usually makes available reservation slots for the following month at the beginning of the month, and this is the best time to try to secure a spot.
• Cancellation of spots: When someone cancels their reservation at the last minute, a spot will become available. You can ask the customer service to add your name to the waitlist.
• Off-peak hours: If you have flexible schedules, choosing to schedule appointments from Tuesday to Thursday in the morning results in a success rate of nearly 100%.
• Combined treatment packages: Booking multiple treatments at one time (such as hyaluronic acid injection + Rejuran) sometimes allows you to get a better schedule.

📋 The complete process for your first visit to the clinic

🎫 Step 1: Check-in (5 minutes)

Upon arriving at the front desk of Lijin Clinic, present your passport. If it’s your first visit, you will need to fill out a basic questionnaire (including information about allergies, previous treatments, and products currently in use). The staff at the front desk can speak some basic Chinese (or use translation software), so there’s no need to worry.

💉 Step 2: Quick consultation by the hospital director (10–15 minutes)

Even if it’s just a simple glow treatment, Director Lijin will first examine the condition of your skin. He will make an assessment based on that.

• Which type of hyaluronic acid formula is suitable for your skin (moisturizing, whitening, repairing, or anti-aging)?
• Are there any areas that are currently inflamed or experiencing an allergic reaction that should be avoided?
• What dose is recommended this time?

The first time I went there, after looking at my face, he said, “Your T-zone is oily, while your cheeks are dry. I suggest using a targeted formula: use the lightweight version for the T-zone and the moisturizing version for your cheeks.” Such attention to detail really makes a difference.

✋ Step 3: Manual application of glow treatment (30–45 minutes)

Now comes the highlight. Director Lijin’s hands-on demonstration of the process:

1. Removal of makeup and cleansing → Use their medical-grade cleansing products.
2. Apply the anesthetic → Wait for 25 to 30 minutes.
3. Disinfection → Thorough disinfection of the entire face with povidone-iodine, carried out with great care.
4. Manual injection → Director Lijin personally performed the procedure.
5. Repairing facial mask → 15-minute cold-press facial mask treatment to complete the process.

Regarding the level of pain – to be honest, Director Lijin’s technique is one of the gentlest I have ever seen. He inserts the needles very quickly (which reduces the duration of pain), and injects the medication slowly and evenly (which prevents swelling). On a scale of 10, my personal pain rating would be around 3 to 4 points – which is completely acceptable.

✨ Step 4: Postoperative care guidance

After the procedure, the nurse will provide you with a written card detailing the postoperative precautions to follow, which includes:

• Do not wash your face on the same day (just gently pat it with mineral water).
• Avoid wearing makeup for 24 hours.
• Strictly protect your skin from the sun within a week.
• Avoid saunas, exercise, and alcohol consumption within three days.
• Come back a week later for a free follow-up examination (this is very important!).
