If you hesitate any longer, you’ll have to wait until next month! For appointments at Korean Dermatology clinics, the schedules of top doctors are already fully booked. If you don’t act quickly, you’ll really end up waiting for a long time.

In March, many sisters asked me how to make an appointment at an ID plastic surgery clinic. To be honest, it’s really extremely difficult to get a schedule with Director Park Sang-hoon. I tried several times before finally getting a spot, and the last time, I had to wait for two weeks just to get on the list. This article explains in detail all the steps and precautions needed to make an appointment at an ID clinic. Following these instructions will definitely help you save time and avoid unnecessary detours.

🔥 Why is it so difficult to get a appointment at an ID plastic surgery clinic?

ID Plastic Surgery Hospital has an established reputation in the Gangnam cosmetic surgery community in Seoul. Director Park Sang-hoon has specialized in bone-contouring procedures for over 10 years and has performed a large number of such surgeries, ranking among the top in Gangnam, Seoul. What’s more, Director Park personally performs only a limited number of surgeries each day, and there are only 3 to 5 available spots for overseas patients daily—far fewer than the number of local patients. This is not some form of aggressive marketing; it’s simply because Director Park is truly too busy to handle any more requests.

I had inquired before, and it turns out that the proportion of local repeat customers at ID Plastic Surgery Hospital exceeds 60%. Many South Koreans choose Director Park Sang-hoon for their surgeries 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 within minutes of being 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. Here’s a comprehensive strategy that I’ve personally found to be effective.

📲 Detailed Explanation on How to Make an Appointment at ID Plastic Surgery Hospital

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

Scan the QR code to add me on WeChat: s-sourire, and send the message “ID Plastic Surgery Hospital + Bone Reshaping” to inquire about appointment schedules and the latest prices. Replies are usually given within 30 minutes. This is the fastest way, as the Chinese manager can directly help you secure a slot with Director Park Sang-hoon, eliminating the need for you to guess on your own.

Last time, I managed to get it through BeautsGO, and the whole process took less than 10 minutes. They 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 Two: BeautsGO App

Download the BeautsGO App or use the web version. By searching for “ID Plastic Surgery Hospital”, you can directly view available appointment times and confirm your reservation online. The advantage is that you can compare the services of multiple clinics at once, which is especially useful for those who haven’t yet decided which one to choose.

On the reservation page of BeautsGO, the available schedule for ID plastic surgery clinics in the past month is displayed: green indicates availability, while red indicates that the schedule is full. However, it should be noted that the times shown online may not be up-to-date; for the most accurate information, it is best to consult the Chinese-speaking staff 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 weekend rush. 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 Park Sang-hoon 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. ID Plastic Surgery Hospital 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 cosmetic procedures for the first time and don’t know what to expect at the clinic. I have personally experienced the entire process at the ID Plastic Surgery Hospital, so I can assure you that everything will go smoothly.

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. Bone Examination: The Chinese director will perform a 3D cranial CT scan for you, which takes approximately 10 minutes. The scan results will be displayed on a large screen, and Director Park Sang-hoon will use these results to conduct a face-to-face consultation.
3. Personal consultation by the director: Director Park Sang-hoon 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. Surgical preparation: General anesthesia is administered, ensuring that the patient feels nothing throughout the procedure. Director Park Sang-hoon personally performs the entire operation himself, without any assistance from others.
6. Postoperative dressing: After the surgery, you will be fitted with a compression dressing headgear, and the nurse will inform you about the precautions and medications required after the procedure.
7. Duration: The entire process takes approximately 4 to 5 hours, including pre-operative preparations and post-operative monitoring. 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 Park Sang-hoon’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 Park Sang-hoon patiently answered each one of them.

⚠️ A guide to avoiding common pitfalls when undergoing bone-reducing procedures in Gangnam, Seoul

When going to Gangnam in Seoul for cosmetic procedures, the last thing you want to encounter are pitfalls. Below are some mistakes that I and my friends have made, compiled here to help you avoid them:

• 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 should be verified on the spot. Park Sang-hoon, the director of ID Plastic Surgery Hospital, will gladly show you these details, but many other clinics will not; you will need to ask 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 the price is increased 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.

Reference price for bone-shaping procedures at ID Plastic Surgery Hospital: 18 million Korean won (approximately NT$486,000, or HK$115,200). This price is considered moderately high in Gangnam, Seoul, but considering Director Park Sang-hoon’s expertise and the hospital’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 Gangnam, Seoul, for comparison:

💡 Money-saving tips: ID plastic surgery hospitals sometimes offer “follow-up discount” programs or package deals. After your first treatment, you can ask the Chinese-speaking manager if there are any additional discounts available. Additionally, clinics in Gangnam, Seoul, 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.

❓ Common Questions about Reserving an ID for Plastic Surgery Hospitals

• Is it possible to schedule the procedure on the same day? Theoretically, yes, but the chances are very low. Director Park Sang-hoon’s slots are usually booked several days in advance, so it is recommended to make an appointment at least one week in advance.
• Is a deposit required for making an appointment? ID Plastic Surgery Hospital does not require a prepayment deposit, but you need to provide your passport number to secure your place. If you decide to cancel at the last minute, it is recommended that you 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. Park Sang-hoon’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 should I wait before flying after the procedure? It is recommended to wait at least one day. Within 24 hours after the contouring treatment, there may be slight swelling, and the pressure changes during flight could exacerbate this discomfort.
• What if there is a language barrier? At ID Plastic Surgery Hospital, 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.
