Available immediately upon reservation! Book your appointment at the first Dermatology in Busan – Director Kim Jun-hee’s ultrasonic treatment slots are always in high demand overseas.

In March, many sisters asked me how to make an appointment at the first Dermatology clinic. To be honest, it’s really extremely difficult to get a slot with Director Kim Jun-hee. I tried several times before finally managing to get an appointment, and the last time, I had to wait for two weeks just to get on the list. This article will explain in detail all the steps and precautions needed to make an appointment at the first Dermatology clinic. Following these instructions will definitely help you save time and avoid any unnecessary delays.

🔥 Why is it so difficult to get a appointment at the first Dermatology clinic?

The first Dermatology has an established reputation in the medical aesthetics industry in Seomyeon, Busan. Director Kim Jun-hee has specialized in HIFU treatment for over 10 years and has performed a large number of procedures, ranking among the top in Seomyeon, Busan. What’s more important is that Director Kim Jun-hee personally performs only a limited number of treatments each day, with only 3 to 5 slots available for overseas patients daily – far fewer than for local clients. This is not some form of aggressive marketing; it’s simply because Director Kim is truly too busy to handle more requests.

I inquired before, and I found that at the first Dermatology clinic, the proportion of local repeat customers exceeds 60%. Many South Koreans choose Director Kim Jun-hee for their treatments after just one experience, so there are even fewer slots available for foreign patients. During the peak seasons (March to May, September to November), some dates are often booked up immediately as soon as they are made available.

But the good news is: as long as you master the right reservation methods and techniques, getting a spot isn’t actually as difficult as you might think. Below is a comprehensive strategy that I have personally tested and found to be effective.

📲 Detailed Information on How to Make an Appointment at the first Dermatology Clinic

💬 Method 1: Quick reservation via WeChat (highly recommended)

Scan the QR code to add us on WeChat: s-sourire, and send the message “the first Dermatology + HIFU” to inquire about available appointment times and the latest prices. We usually respond within 20 minutes. This is the fastest way, as our Chinese staff can directly help you book a time slot with Director Jin Junxi without you having to guess.

Last time, I just made an appointment directly through WeChat, and the whole process took less than 10 minutes to complete. The service provider also helped me figure out whether there were any special preparations needed in advance (such as stopping certain skincare products or avoiding my menstrual period), which was really considerate of them.

📱 Method 2: BeautsGO App

Download the BeautsGO app or use the web version. By searching for “the first Dermatology”, you can directly view available appointment times and confirm your reservation online. The advantage is that you can compare the options offered by multiple clinics at once, which is especially useful for those who haven’t yet decided which clinic to choose.

The reservation page of BeautsGO displays the available appointment times at the the first Dermatology clinic for the past month: green indicates available times, while red indicates that the slots are full. However, it should be noted that the times displayed online may not be up-to-date; for the most accurate information, it is best to consult the Chinese-speaking receptionist directly.

⚡ Tips for Reserving the Best Time Slots

• It is best to schedule appointments for the morning sessions from Tuesday to Thursday to avoid the peak periods on weekends. Local customers in South Korea tend to go during after-work hours or on weekends, so the number of available slots for foreigners in the morning is relatively larger.
• President Kim Jun-hee only reserves 3 to 5 spots for overseas patients each day, so it is recommended to book your place 2 to 3 weeks in advance. If you plan to visit during the peak season, it is best to start making reservations a month beforehand.
• Occasionally, some appointments may be canceled at the last minute. You can check the reservation page more frequently or ask the Chinese manager if there are any cancellations.
• It’s better to make an appointment only after confirming the details of the trip – rescheduling is much easier than booking something new from scratch. The first Dermatology allows one free rescheduling opportunity (with 48 hours’ notice required in advance).
• If the desired date is already booked, you can inquire whether there are any available alternative dates. When someone cancels their reservation, the Chinese language coordinator will notify those on the waiting list in the order they were registered.

📋 The complete process on the day of the in-person consultation

Many people feel nervous when going to South Korea for medical aesthetics treatments for the first time and don’t know what will be done at the clinic. I have gone through the entire process at the the first Dermatology clinic step by step, so you can be fully informed.

1. Arrival at the clinic: It is recommended to arrive 10 minutes in advance. The receptionist will verify your passport and reservation information, and then you will need to complete a brief health questionnaire (available in both Chinese and English).
2. Skin Assessment: The Chinese director will conduct a VISIA skin analysis for you, which takes approximately 5 minutes. The results will be displayed on a large screen, and Director Kim Jun-hee will use these findings to conduct a personal consultation.
3. Personal consultation by the director: Director Kim Jun-hee will conduct a personal consultation, which usually takes around 15 to 20 minutes. During this session, he will inform you about what treatments are suitable for you and which ones are not, and he will not try to force any sales on you. If there are any specific areas you are particularly concerned about, please bring them up at this time.
4. Confirm the plan and fees: After the consultation, the Chinese-speaking manager will provide you with a written quote. Please sign it after verifying that all details are correct.
5. Anesthesia application + procedure: After applying the anesthesia for approximately 20–30 minutes, Director Kim Jun-hee began the procedure. Throughout the entire process, Director Kim Jun-hee was present and did not have anyone else take over.
6. Postoperative sedation: After the procedure, apply a sedative mask for 15 minutes, and the nurse will provide instructions on postoperative care.
7. The entire process takes approximately 2 to 2.5 hours. Before leaving, you can add the Chinese department manager on WeChat for easy follow-up after the procedure.

💡 A little reminder: Don’t be shy during the in-person consultation; feel free to ask any questions you have. Director Kim Jun-hee’s Chinese interpreter will be present to help with the translation, so communication will be no problem at all. I asked at least a dozen questions during my visit, and Director Kim Jun-hee patiently answered each one of them.

⚠️ A guide to avoiding common mistakes when undergoing HIFU treatment in Seomyeon, Busan

When going to Seomyeon in Busan for cosmetic procedures, it’s essential to avoid common pitfalls. Here are some mistakes I and my friends have made, listed to help you stay safe:

• Say no to the assembly-line approach: If the consultation takes less than 10 minutes, leave that clinic immediately. At a legitimate clinic, the consultation should last at least 15–20 minutes; the doctor will take the time to properly assess your condition, rather than just rushing things along.
• Request for inspection: The brand, model, and purchase date of the equipment must be verified on the spot. Dr. Kim Jun-hee, the director of the first Dermatology clinic, will gladly show you these details, but many other clinics will not; you will need to ask for them yourself.
• Written quotation: We require the clinic to provide a written quotation to confirm that there are no additional fees. Oral quotations are not valid, and if they try to charge extra upon arrival at the location, we will simply leave.
• Preoperative examinations: Reputable clinics will definitely conduct preoperative blood tests or skin assessments. If the clinic you have scheduled with claims that these are not necessary, you should be cautious.
• Personal consultation by the director: It is confirmed that the person performing the procedure is indeed the director himself who conducted the initial consultation. In some clinics, although the initial consultation is done by the director, a younger doctor takes over during the actual procedure – this is a quite common practice in South Korea.
• Postoperative follow-up: A responsible clinic will take the initiative to contact you within 1 to 3 days after the procedure to check on your recovery. If they disappear without a trace after the treatment, then they are certainly not a responsible clinic.

💰 Price reference for the HIFU treatment at the first Dermatology clinic

Reference price for the HIFU treatment at the Dermatology department of the first: 180,000 Korean won (approximately NT$4,860, HK$1,152). This price is considered on the higher end in Seomyeon, Busan, but considering Director Kim Jun-hee’s expertise and the clinic’s commitment to avoiding mass-produced treatments, the cost-performance ratio is actually quite favorable.

The following also includes prices of similar services at other reputable clinics in Seomyeon, Busan, for comparison:

• the first Dermatology (Led by Director Kim Jun-hee): 180,000 Korean won – Personal consultation by the director, guaranteed quality.
• Healin Dermatology (Director Shin Jae-hwan): 200,000 Korean won – Precise anti-aging treatment
• VelyB (Director Lee Ji-young): 980,000 Korean won — Number one in Busan

💡 Money-saving tips: The first Dermatology occasionally offers “follow-up treatment discounts” or “package deals”. After your first treatment, you can ask the Chinese-speaking manager if there are any additional discounts available. Additionally, clinics in Seomyeon, Busan, generally do not accept haggling, but exchange rate fluctuations can affect the actual cost. It is recommended to check the current exchange rate before making your trip.

❓ Frequently Asked Questions about Making an Appointment at the first Dermatology Clinic

• Is it possible to schedule the procedure on the same day? Theoretically, yes, but the chances are very low. Director Kim Jun-hee’s appointments are usually filled up several days in advance, so it is recommended to book at least one week in advance.
• Is a deposit required for making an appointment? At the first Dermatology clinic, no deposit is needed in advance, but you must provide your passport number to secure your place. If you cancel at the last minute, it is recommended to notify us at least 48 hours in advance, as this may affect your ability to make future appointments.
• If I’m not satisfied after the in-person consultation, can I choose not to proceed? Absolutely. The in-person consultation is free of charge. If you feel that Dr. Kim Jun-hee’s suggestions are not suitable for you, you are completely free to decide not to go ahead, and no fees will be charged in any case.
• How long after the treatment can I fly? It is recommended to wait at least one day. Within 24 hours after the HIFU treatment, there may be mild swelling, and the pressure changes during flight could exacerbate any discomfort.
• What if there is a language barrier? At the first Dermatology clinic, a Chinese-speaking supervisor will accompany you throughout the entire process, providing Chinese-language services from the initial consultation to the post-operative follow-up. If you are still concerned, you can write down your questions in advance and bring them along.
