We had appointments scheduled with both the dermatology and plastic surgery departments and were looking forward to receiving professional medical advice. Unfortunately, the experience was one of the most disappointing parts of our trip to Korea. Everything went down hill after the dermatology consultation, doctor briefly spoke and after he left it felt more like a sales pitch than a medical evaluation. Expensive treatments such as Thermage and Ultherapy were heavily promoted, ( nothing else about other skin issues addressed) and the coordinator’s attitude noticeably changed when we declined. We felt judged and treated differently simply because we were not willing to commit to the high-cost procedures being recommended that is more expensive than USA. What was most concerning was that despite having a plastic surgery consultation scheduled, we were told that everything had to go through the coordinator. We were not given the opportunity to meet or speak directly with the plastic surgeon about our concerns, goals, or treatment options. It is difficult to understand how patients can make informed decisions when access to the doctor is effectively blocked by a coordinator. The atmosphere felt cold, dismissive, and focused on sales rather than patient care. We came expecting professionalism, transparency, and expert medical guidance, but instead felt pressured and unwelcome once it became clear we were not interested in the most expensive treatments. Korea has an excellent reputation for aesthetic medicine, which makes this experience even more disappointing. Unfortunately, this clinic left us feeling frustrated, disrespected, and disappointed, and it negatively impacted what was otherwise a wonderful trip.
