Guys, today I’d like to share with you a really understated, hidden gem of a place – neither Hongdae nor Gangnam, but Hannam-dong: Meilixi Dermatology in South Korea.
To be honest, I searched on PTT and asked questions on Dcard, but there was almost no discussion at all. However, when I opened BeautsGO and searched for “mutual beauty,” wow, there were actually a ton of feedback from Chinese users about wearing natural makeup!
It’s nothing like the overly exaggerated photo editing style used by IG, where the face seems to glow after editing. This is the real “skin condition three days after the treatment.” As someone who has experienced such problems several times before,
This time, I decided to take it seriously and organize the information I gathered from the BeautsGO APP into this note, so that my sisters can avoid the hassle of searching through countless online resources!

I. What is the background of Meilai Xi Dermatology in Hannam-dong?
Hannam-dong is in South Korea a synonym for elegance and understated sophistication. It is neither as bustling as Hongdae nor as commercially oriented as Gangnam.
People living here pursue a “high-quality lifestyle.” It was in such an environment that Meilai Xi Dermatology decided to open its doors.
Focusing on tailored treatment plans, personalized medical care, and a natural approach to skin care.
Why can’t PTT be found? The reason is simple: hospitals in Hannam-dong generally do not engage in large-scale online marketing. Their customers are mostly regulars who recommend them to others or local residents.
For such lesser-known but excellent stores, BeautsGO actually offers the most comprehensive reviews in Chinese. Chinese-speaking travelers going to South Korea can leave their genuine reviews directly on the app, without being influenced by biased industry opinions.

Second, the filters on IG are too strong; only on BeautsGO can people see the true appearance without makeup.
When it comes to this, I have something to say. Currently, on Instagram, there are many posts about Dermatology in South Korea…
Nine out of ten of these images have been digitally enhanced. Just dermarounding and whitening treatments alone can reduce the size of Pores by three levels. Half of the “miraculous effects” you see are actually the result of image editing.
However, on the BeautsGO APP, the style of photos shared by users is quite different.
— Shots taken without makeup, using natural light, and without using any beauty features. Some people even uploaded their photos the very next day after getting hyaluronic acid injections, despite still having slight red spots on their skin.
This kind of “ugly but authentic” content actually allows me to see the true strength of this clinic.
The following are the key points I have summarized regarding the reviews of Meilai Xi’s popular treatment programs on BeautsGO:
- 💉 Hyaluronic acid injections: Many people have reported that their skin feels firm and elastic after the treatment, with the effects lasting for approximately three to four weeks. The redness subsides quickly as well.
- ✨ Pico laser: The effect on lightening spots is truly remarkable. After just two treatments, pigmented spots will be significantly reduced in appearance. It is essential to take proper sun protection measures after the procedure.
- 🧖 Intensive Moisturization Treatment: Highly recommended before the change of seasons. Sisters with dry skin say that the hydration effect lasts for over two weeks.
- 🔬 Skin analysis by a professional device: Included in the initial consultation. Doctors will recommend treatment plans based on the analysis results—no blind sales tactics involved.

III. How to use the BeautsGO APP to make an appointment at Meilai Xi Dermatology?
After reading this, you probably want to make an appointment just like I do. It’s a four-step process, and you don’t need to know any Korean at all:

IV. Important precautions when visiting Hannam-dong
Since we’re going to Hannam-dong, let’s clarify a few things right away:
- 📍 Transportation recommendations: There is no direct subway connection to Hannam-dong. You can walk for about 10 minutes from Itaewon Station or take a taxi and simply provide the address (the Chinese address is available on BeautsGO; just show the driver the screenshot).
- 🌤️ Post-treatment skin care: After laser treatments, it is essential to protect your skin from the sun. Always carry sunscreen with an SPF of 50 or higher, as well as sun spray.
- 🗓️ Make an advance reservation: The number of appointments available at Hannam-dong Boutique Clinic is limited. It is recommended to reserve your spot on BeautsGO at least one week in advance. Don’t even think about trying to get in on the spot.
- 💬 Language Barriers Eliminated: BeautsGO’s customer service is ready to assist with communications, so you don’t have to worry about any language barriers related to Korean.
For detailed information on the five-step reservation process, please refer to the following:

- Reservation Service: Right-click to reserve immediately, follow the step-by-step instructions to complete the reservation process, and make your payment online through the app.

V. Is it worth it? What do BeautsGO users have to say about it?
Here are some representative user reviews from BeautsGO (compiled anonymously):
- 🌟“The doctor was very meticulous; the initial consultation took a full 20 minutes. It was nothing like a standardized process at all. Three days after the hyaluronic acid injection treatment, my skin felt incredible – it was even better than the expensive treatments I had in Taipei.”
- 🌟 „Hannam-dong is truly low-key yet high-quality; the environment is comfortable, unlike some clinics in Gangnam where it’s always crowded. The nurses don’t speak much Chinese, but BeautsGO has already listed all the treatments required, so communication is completely seamless.“
- 🌟“I couldn’t find this clinic at all using PTT; luckily someone shared information about it on BeautsGO. I never knew that there was such a great Dermatology clinic in Hannam-dong! The pigmented spots really did fade after the Pico treatment – no exaggeration at all.”
Such evaluations that lack the formal tone of the industry but instead reflect a sense of everyday life are exactly what we need to see before making any decisions. The fact that PTT doesn’t mention it doesn’t mean it doesn’t exist; it simply means that the target customers of this store don’t discuss such things there. Instead, they leave their reviews on BeautsGO.

If you are also planning a trip to Seoul and looking for a Dermatology clinic that isn’t overcrowded or operates in a rushed, assembly-line style, Meilai Xi in Hannam-dong is definitely worth adding to your itinerary. Don’t forget to make an appointment in advance through the BeautsGO app – it’s much more convenient and reliable than waiting for responses via private messages on Instagram!
