When going to South Korea for medical aesthetics treatments, there are two things that cause the most concern: first, the opaque pricing—different clinics can quote prices that differ by up to twice for the same procedure; second, it’s hard to determine the qualifications of the doctors—whether those performing the treatments are actually licensed specialists. Galleria Dermatology (갤러리아피부과의원), located at its main branch in Banpo, Seoul, addresses both of these issues effectively—featuring 7 dermatology specialists from Yonsei University, implementing a “uniform pricing system across South Korea with the same rates as in China,” and making the price list publicly available on site. In this article, I’ll provide you with a comprehensive overview of Galleria Dermatology’s Banpo branch, including its basic information, price list, and tips on how to choose between different dermatology clinics in the area.

V. Why does Galleria’s Dermatology department dare to claim “uniform pricing across Korea, same price in China and Korea”?
What concerns many Taiwanese visitors the most is whether they’ll be charged more just because they’re tourists. At Galleria Dermatology’s flagship clinic in Banpo, they display price lists in both Chinese and Korean, offering the same rates to Taiwanese guests and local South Koreans without charging an extra “foreigner fee.” For those traveling on their own, this means there’s no need to haggle over prices, making it much easier to manage budgets.
Another key factor is the qualifications of the physicians. At Galleria Dermatology’s main branch in Banpo, there are 7 board-certified dermatologists who graduated from Yonsei University. The head physician, Kim Dong-in, and the chief medical officer, Choe Seung-jae, are both full-time staff members—there are no cases of “nominal directors while actual procedures are performed by assistants.” Holding the red-label certification from South Korea’s Ministry of Health and Welfare as a safe hospital ensures that basic standards are met in terms of infection control and medical equipment management.

VI. How to Choose Between Galleria Dermatology and Other Dermatology Clinics in Sinsa/Cheongdam
Also located in Seoul’s Gangnam area, the Dermatology clinics in Cheongdam, Sinsa, and Banpo have distinct styles. Cheongdam’s clinics tend to charge premium prices akin to those of top-rated stores and renowned doctors, while Sinsa caters to trendy customers and younger folks. Banpo, where Galleria’s Dermatology department—the flagship store—is situated—offers a more accessible experience with affordable prices, friendly service tailored to local residents, and convenient transportation.
| Comparison | Galleria Galleria Dermatology (Silkworm Hospital) | Cheongdam’s Top Shops Series | Sinsa’s Trendy Vibe |
| Price transparency | Same price in China and South Korea – fully transparent | People often haggle over the price | The promotional price varies significantly |
| Doctor staffing | 7 Yonsei College Students | Top Doctors List | Shift system |
| Transportation | Silkworm Farm Station: 1 minute | Around Cheongdam Station | Around Sinsa Station |
| Who It’s For | Budget-conscious travelers, solo adventurers | High budget, seeking top doctors | Young and eager to try new treatments |
If you have a limited budget, want procedures performed by specialized doctors, and don’t want to end up as just another client in a rush, the main branch of Galleria Dermatology Banpo蚕院 is a reliable choice in this area.
