Facial places in Seoul?


Recommended Posts

Hi Nikki, there are going to be a lot of choices for facials, so it depends upon your goal:

Example Goals: 

  • Treating yourself to day of wellness and skin boost or pick me (short-term).
  • Treating some skin trouble spots to make "progress" towards lasting alleviation.

I say "progress" because skin treatments usually need to be continued with follow up sessions. But depending upon the concern and ones budget, some treatment packages / stacks can give good results with only one or two sessions, but usually effective methods are also reflected by their price and can be more aggressive (downtime / recovery time)

In terms of places to get facials in Seoul, they can be organized into 3 categories.

1) Dermatology Clinics 

  • Can perform laser treatments along side facials
  • Treatments can be medical grade (i.e. intensive)
  • Cost may be higher

Good for clinical methods that make an lasting improvement, but depends on treatment method chosen.

2) Esthetician Boutiques 

  • Treatments are facials & massages with various masks, serums, clay, steam, etc...
  • Rejuvenating and noticeable glow immediately after
  • Price range depending upon small shop vs high-end luxury spot.

Good for general facial treatment for a one-day pick me up / relaxation.

3) Beauty Spas

  • Beauty & wellness with larger options menu for treatments (face & body).
  • Usually longer treatment times (2 hours to full day)
  • Price range depending upon small shop vs high-end luxury spot.

Good for combining relaxation and facial for one-day pick me up / relaxation.
