If this is your first visit, our complete Cheongdam guide for foreigners covers transport, hotels and everyday tips.
1. What Thermage FLX Does
Thermage FLX is a non-invasive skin-tightening treatment that uses monopolar radiofrequency. It heats the deep layers of skin while cooling the surface, tightening existing collagen and stimulating new collagen over the next few months. It is used on the face, around the eyes and on the body.
Results are natural and gradual. Most people notice some firmness soon after treatment, with improvement continuing for two to six months.
2. Where to Go Near Cheongdam
Many well-known lifting clinics are in Cheongdam itself, but the area around Bongeunsa Station on Line 9 is only a few minutes away by taxi or subway and is a convenient alternative. One clinic there with a dedicated English page is YAAN Clinic for Thermage FLX in Gangnam, near Bongeunsa Station Exit 7. It offers physician-led consultations with 3D skin analysis and English support from booking to aftercare.
Compare Cheongdam and Apgujeong Rodeo stations if you are deciding where to base yourself.
3. Prices
Thermage is priced by shot count. As a reference, the Gangnam clinic above lists:
- 300 face shots: ₩1,690,000
- 600 face shots: ₩2,190,000
- Eye Thermage (450 shots): ₩1,490,000
Always confirm whether prices include VAT and whether the tip is genuine and single-use. Foreign visitors may be eligible for a tax refund on some cosmetic procedures; ask the clinic when you book.
4. How to Fit It Into Your Trip
Because downtime is minimal, Thermage works well early in a trip. You may have some redness for a few hours, so plan a relaxed evening afterwards. Our article on what to do in Cheongdam after a skin treatment has ideas for cafés and low-key activities. Avoid saunas, hot yoga and heavy drinking for a day or two.
5. Booking Tips
- Send photos and your goals by WhatsApp or KakaoTalk before you arrive.
- Ask which shot count the doctor recommends and why.
- Book the consultation and treatment on the same day if your schedule is tight.
