What treatments are available at Myeongdong HeyDay Dermatology? After reviewing the 15 major categories listed on their official website and comparing the prices, I have compiled a recommended list.

Are you the same? When you open the HeyDay official website and see a long list of project names in both English and Korean, you don’t know where to start, do you? Thermage, HIFU, Rejuran, POTENZA, Pico Toning… Just the names alone are already so confusing.

Actually, it’s not just you; I was also completely confused when I first went there. It took me an entire afternoon to carefully record all the prices for the services offered by the Myeongdong HeyDay Dermatology clinic on the HeyDay official website, to organize all the information about the various treatments and their prices. I also asked friends who had been there before as well as the customer service team at BeautsGO before writing this article.

Below is a recommended list that I have categorized according to your needs. This is not a mere copy of the official website’s catalog; rather, it consists of treatments that I have personally deemed worth trying based on my actual experiences and evaluations. After reading this list, you will know exactly which treatments you should schedule.

📋 In a nutshell: What projects is HeyDay good at?

  • If you want to achieve a firming and lifting effect, consider Thermage FLX (₩.69 million) or HIFU PRIME (₩.45 million). HeyDay is an officially authorized center for these two devices.
  • If you want to whiten your skin and reduce freckles → Consider Pico Toning or POTENZA. After the treatment, your skin tone will truly become brighter.
  • If you want to hydrate and brighten your skin → The Rejuran Healer/HB Plus series are very popular even among South Koreans themselves.
  • If you want to reduce the appearance of a Double Chin and define your facial contours, consider combining Masseter toxin injection with Inmode treatment – this approach effectively targets both the Masseter muscles and the Double Chin in one go.
  • For those with a limited budget (under ¥1.01 million), Aquapeel Hydrating Cleanser + Genesis Toning is the best choice for basic skincare – it offers the highest cost-performance ratio.

Waiting Area at HeyDay

🔥 If you want to combat aging and achieve firming and lifting effects → Thermage FLX and HIFU PRIME are the perfect choices for you.

These two treatments are HeyDay’s flagship services and also the most frequently requested by foreign patients. HeyDay is an officially authorized center for Thermage FLX and HIFU PRIME; all the equipment used here is of the latest generation – and this is extremely important, as some clinics in South Korea still use older models or smuggled equipment.

Thermage FLX – Total Face Tightening

  • Suitable for: Those with loose facial skin, prominent Nasolabial Fold Correction, or blurred jawlines.
  • Principle: Monopolar radiofrequency heats the dermis, stimulating the production of new Collagen.
  • Price: Starting from ¥9.69 million (for a full face with basic hair density); additional costs apply for areas around the eyes or neck.
  • Recovery period: Almost none; there may be slight redness for 1 to 2 hours after the procedure.
  • Results: The effects are most noticeable after 1 to 2 months and can last for 1 to 2 years.
  • Who this is suitable for: People over 30 who notice that their skin is starting to lose its firmness.

HIFU PRIME (Ultherapy PRIME) – Lifting for Contour Definition

  • Suitable for: sagging facial features, indistinct facial contours, Double Chin
  • Principle: Concentrated ultrasonic waves precisely heat the SMAS fascia layer.
  • Prices: Starting from ¥9.45 million for a full face treatment (300 sessions); approximately ¥650,000 to ¥750,000 for 500 sessions.
  • Recovery period: Almost none
  • Results: The effects are most noticeable after 2 to 3 months and can last for 1 to 1.5 years.
  • Who this is suitable for: People who feel their faces have lost their firmness or whose jawlines are no longer distinct.

💡 My suggestion: If your budget allows (₩1 million or more), combining Thermage with HIFU will achieve the best results – one for tightening the skin and the other for Lifting. If you can only choose one, those aged 30–35 should prioritize Thermage (to prevent sagging), while those over 35 should opt for HIFU (to address drooping skin). For more price details, please refer to this comprehensive price list from the HeyDay Dermatology in Myeongdong.

✨ If you want to whiten your skin and reduce freckles → Pico Toning: Pico-second color correction treatment

If you are coming to South Korea and also want to improve uneven skin tone, sunspots, or dark spots left by acne scars, Pico Toning is undoubtedly the best choice.

  • Price: ¥1.15–2.5 million for a full face treatment – considered to be in the mid-range price segment.
  • Recovery period: Slight redness may last for 1-2 hours, but it will not affect your daily activities.
  • Effect: Immediately after the treatment, you’ll notice that your skin looks brighter, but it takes 3 to 5 sessions to see significant results in reducing freckles.
  • Pairing recommendations: If the acne scars are reddish in color, consider adding Genesis Toning; if they are dark in color, Pico alone is sufficient.

🔬 If you want to improve the appearance of acne and acne scars → POTENZA Potenza

POTENZA is one of the star devices of HeyDay. It combines microneedling with radiofrequency technology, and it is particularly effective in treating acne scars, enlarged Pores, and uneven skin surfaces. Moreover, its recovery period is shorter compared to traditional fractional laser treatments.

  • Price: ¥920,000 – ¥350,000 for the entire face, which is cheaper than Thermage.
  • Recovery period: Redness may last for 1 to 2 days. It is recommended not to attend any important events on the day of the procedure.
  • Effect: After 2 to 3 treatment sessions, the scars from acne will become significantly less noticeable, and the Pores will also undergo Reduction surgery.
  • Who it’s suitable for: People who have long been troubled by acne and acne scars and have tried many skincare products with no success.
Treatment Rooms at HeyDay

💧 If you want to hydrate and brighten your skin → Rejuran Glow Series

Rejuran is considered the “national product” of South Korea’s Dermatology industry, and it is also very popular among South Koreans themselves. HeyDay offers a full range of Rejuran products: Healer (basic hydration and repair), HB Plus (enhanced version with added Filler), and Eyehealer (specifically designed for the eye area).

  • Price: ¥1.55–2.5 million for the entire face. HB Plus is approximately ¥50,000–100,000 more expensive than Healer.
  • Recovery period: The needle marks will disappear within 24 hours, and you can apply makeup on the same day.
  • Effect: One week after treatment, the glow of the skin is significantly enhanced. This treatment is ideal to be done one month before a wedding or event.
  • Suitable for: People with dry skin, rough skin, or those who want their foundation to adhere better.

If you are also interested in learning about the prices of Rejuran at other clinics, you can refer to the Myeongdong Rejuran price list > Myeongdong Rejuran price list.

💎 If you want to slim your face or achieve a V-shaped face contour → Consider Masseter botulinum toxin injection combined with Inmode treatment.

This is a very popular combination offered by HeyDay: first, use Masseter toxin to reduce the size of the chewing muscles (for a slimmer face), and then use Inmode radiofrequency to eliminate fat accumulations in the Double Chin and lower half of the face.

  • Price of Masseter botulinum toxin injection: ¥80,000 – ¥150,000 (depending on the dosage)
  • Inmode price: ⩩1.5 – 3 million KRW (for the lower half of the face)
  • Recovery period: Botulinum toxin does not require a recovery period; after the Inmode treatment, there may be mild redness for 1–2 hours.
  • Effect: The effects of Botox are most noticeable 2 to 4 weeks after injection and last for 4 to 6 months; Inmode provides immediate firming results after treatment.

🟢 Entry-level (₩50,000 – 150,000)

⚠️ Pitfalls I’ve encountered: A guide to avoiding mistakes when choosing projects in the HeyDay industry

⚠️ Problem 1: Only after entering the clinic did I realize that the procedure I wanted to have would take a very long time.

At HeyDay, due to the large number of foreign customers, popular treatments such as Thermage and HIFU, which require direct medical intervention by professionals, often result in waiting lists that range from 2 to 3 weeks. Many people only discover upon arriving at the clinic that “the treatment cannot be performed today” and end up making a wasted trip.

→ How to avoid this: When making an appointment, ask clearly, “I want to have Thermage treatment. What is the earliest available time?” Instead of just asking, “Is there any availability today?” If you are in a hurry, it is recommended to book your spot through BeautsGO at least 2 weeks in advance.

⚠️ Mistake 2: Thinking that a Dermatology department can handle everything, only to realize that some treatments are not suitable for one’s own needs.

Although HeyDay offers a wide range of treatments (covering 15 major categories), not all of them are suitable for everyone. For example, people with oily acne-prone skin may find that using Rejuran makes their skin too moist, which could actually trigger more breakouts; while those with sensitive skin might experience redness for several days after undergoing high-energy laser treatments.

→ How to avoid it: When you go for the procedure, let the doctor examine your skin condition first and honestly inform them about any allergies you have and the skincare products you are currently using. Don’t decide on your own what to do; let professionals make the judgment.

⚠️ Pit 3: Focusing only on the prices listed on the official website while ignoring the hidden costs associated with additional treatments or additional areas being targeted.

A full-face treatment with HIFU for ₩690,000 provides a basic number of treatments. If you want to target the areas around the eyes or the neck in addition, additional fees will usually be charged. The same applies to HIFU; there is a significant price difference between treatments with 300 and 500 treatments per face.

→ How to avoid it: When consulting, directly ask, “Which areas are included in this price, and how many hairs will be implanted?” Request a written quote. Don’t just ask “How much does it cost?” Make sure you understand exactly what is included.

👍 In a nutshell, the pros and cons of HeyDay

✅ Advantages ⚠️ Disadvantages
👍 The range of services is incredibly comprehensive – these 15 major categories cover almost all aspects of skin care needs. 👎 For the popular treatments (Thermage/HIFU), waiting times are usually long; it is recommended to make an appointment 2 weeks in advance.
👍 All the equipment used is from the latest generation (Thermage FLX, Ultherapy PRIME, POTENZA). 👎 The prices are relatively high; there are limited options for basic treatments costing less than ⩾910,000.
👍 It’s only a 2-minute walk from the entrance station of Eulji-ro in Myeongdong; you can go shopping right after the treatment. 👎 Thursday is a public holiday, so be sure to plan your activities accordingly.
👍 We offer services in multiple languages, including Chinese, English, and Korean – we treat foreigners with great friendliness. 👎 During peak hours (from 2 pm to 5 pm), the waiting time may be relatively long.
👍 Provides sleep-induced sedation – a real blessing for those who fear pain.
👍 Free luggage storage – just head to the airport right after your cosmetic procedure.

Who is this product suitable for? And who is it not suitable for?

dimension Suitable Not suitable
Requirements ✅ Looking to improve anti-aging effects, whiten and reduce spots, treat acne, or maintain optimal skin hydration? ❌ Those considering major plastic surgeries: HeyDay is a Dermatology clinic and does not perform surgical procedures.
Budget ✅ From over ₩100,000 for basic treatments to ₩1 million or more for comprehensive treatment packages ❌ With prices below 50,000 yuan, there are virtually no options available.
Language ✅ If you have basic English skills or can use mobile translation apps, all services are provided in Chinese. ❌ Having overly high expectations for multilingual services (while not everyone in the team speaks Chinese, they are at least able to communicate).
Itinerary ✅ If you are traveling to Seoul and want to take advantage of medical beauty treatments, it is essential to choose a location with convenient transportation. ❌ Walk-ins that are scheduled at the last minute and need to be completed on the same day are highly unlikely to be available due to the high demand for popular services.

How should people in different situations make their choices?

  • If this is your first time trying medical beauty treatments and you don’t know where to start, we recommend starting with the basic Aquapeel cleansing followed by the Genesis Toning treatment. The cost is around 910,000 won, and the procedure is painless, requires no recovery time, and you can go out immediately after it. Experience the professionalism of Korean skin care treatments first, and then consider more advanced options later on.
  • If you come to Seoul specifically for anti-aging treatments (Thermage or HIFU), you can simply schedule a Thermage FLX treatment for the entire face for ₩690,000. HeyDay is an officially authorized clinic, and the equipment used is of high quality. If you are also concerned about skin laxity and sagging, you can discuss a combination of Thermage and HIFU with a doctor – but be prepared for a budget of over ₩1 million.
  • If you want to improve the appearance of acne and acne scars: POTENZA Potenza is your best choice. It combines microneedling with radiofrequency technology, and its effects on acne scars and enlarged Pores are very significant. If the acne scars are red in color, you can also opt for Genesis Toning to reduce the redness; if they are dark in color, Pico Toning can be used to lighten the pigmentation.
  • If your budget is limited (₩100,000 – 1,500,000), but you still want to experience this renowned clinic, consider Rejuran Healer. This treatment, which costs around ⩺1,500,000, is a signature procedure in South Korea’s Dermatology field. Alternatively, you can opt for the combination of Aquapeel and LDM treatments, which allow you to enjoy professional instrument-based skin care for less than ⩺1,500,000. In either case, you can go shopping on the same day without any disruption to your schedule.

My conclusion is: If it were me, I would make the same choice.

To be honest, the biggest strengths of HeyDay are its comprehensive range of services, state-of-the-art equipment, and the friendly attitude of its staff towards foreigners. You don’t need to visit several different clinics; one place can meet most of your skin care needs.

If it were my first time going, I would arrange it in the following way:

  1. First, consult on BeautsGO and let the customer service recommend suitable treatments based on the condition of my skin.
  2. If the budget allows, it is recommended to book the Thermage FLX treatment directly (₩.69 million) – as this is HeyDay’s most powerful treatment option and also the one that is hardest to schedule.
  3. If your budget is limited, considering Rejuran hyaluronic acid injections (₩150,000–₂50,000) combined with Masseter botulinum toxin injections (₩80,000–150,000), the total cost of around ⩢000,000–⩣000,000 will suffice for both hydration and face slimming treatments.
  4. No matter what you plan to do, always make an appointment 2 weeks in advance to avoid the Thursday holiday.

❓ Frequently Asked Questions

A: According to the information on the official website and feedback from actual visitors, the top three treatments are: ① Thermage FLX (full-face tightening), ② HIFU PRIME (contour lifting), and ③ Rejuran Hydrating Treatment (moisturizing and repair). Among these, Thermage and HIFU PRIME usually have the highest number of reservations because they require manual operation by a physician.

Q: Between Thermage and HIFU, which one does HeyDay recommend more?

A: A simple way to distinguish between them: Thermage focuses on “tightening” loose skin, while HIFU is designed to “Lifting” sagging facial contours. If you feel that your face has lost its firmness, choose HIFU; if you notice that your skin has become loose, Thermage is the better option. The ideal scenario would be to use both treatments, but the budget would need to be over ¥1 million.

Q: Is HeyDay effective in treating acne?

A: HeyDay offers equipment specifically designed for treating acne and acne scars, such as the POTENZA Potenza and the NEO Beam Laser. In reviews on Cashdoc, many people mention that doctors “honestly tell you which treatments are necessary and which are not”, which is extremely important for acne treatment – it ensures that you won’t be encouraged to undergo unnecessary procedures.

Q: How soon after the procedure can I wear makeup or go shopping?

A: For most non-invasive treatments such as Aquapeel, Genesis Toning, and Rejuran, you can apply makeup and go out shopping on the same day after the treatment. It is recommended not to wear makeup within 24 hours after laser treatments like Pico Toning and POTENZA. There is no recovery period for Thermage and HIFU; you can meet people immediately after the treatment, and any mild redness will subside within 1-2 hours.

Q: HeyDay is closed on Thursdays; will there be a lot of people on weekends?

A: Weekends, especially Saturdays, are the busiest times for HeyDay. It is recommended to make a reservation 2-3 weeks in advance. If you can only visit on weekends, it is advisable to schedule the first session in the morning (usually at 10:00) to minimize waiting time.

Q: Is there Chinese-speaking service at HeyDay for my first visit?

A: Yes! HeyDay provides consultation services in multiple languages, including Chinese, English, and Korean. You can select the desired language on the tablet at the front desk. However, not all staff members speak Chinese, so it is recommended to bring a translation app as a backup. For important information such as medical history or specific treatment requirements, it is advisable to prepare copies in Korean or English in advance.
