I. Why I took the time to thoroughly examine Ruiqisi’s price list
To be honest, there are so many Dermatology clinics in Gangnam that it’s overwhelming—over 200 of them of various sizes lining Nonhyeon Road, all using similar types of equipment and offering pretty much the same treatment options. The reason I chose to write about Suisei is because, based on my research, it stands out as one of the few clinics that are genuinely transparent: they openly display their price lists, the director shares his real credentials without exaggeration, and they don’t push unnecessary treatments. Moreover, their approach to “skin density anti-aging” is truly different from those clinics that focus solely on basic lifting procedures. For those planning to make an appointment, what really matters is whether it’s worth the trip, if the prices are fair, and who will actually perform the treatment. So in this article, I’ve compiled information on the Nonhyeon branch’s location, transportation options, doctors, prices, and how it differs from other clinics in Gangnam—acting as a record of my own investigations.
Let’s get to the conclusion first: if what you’re looking for is a clinic located in the heart of Gangnam, operated by the chief physician in person for anti-aging treatments, with transparent pricing and seamless communication in Chinese, Ruiqisi is a very reliable choice. If you want to undergo HIFU or Thermage treatments seriously, book an appointment directly with Chief Physician Jin Guanghao.

How to Make an Appointment
On BeautsGO, you can check the director’s schedule, prices, and side-by-side comparisons; just specify Director Kim Kwang-ho in the notes.
It operates on a “single-clinic led by the director” model: unlike large chains that open branches everywhere, Suqis focuses its efforts on building a strong team of doctors, along with proprietary products and equipment, at its Nonhyeon location. For first-time visitors, this concentration is actually an advantage—the director you meet is the same doctor who will perform the procedure, so you won’t have to switch to someone else just by moving to another floor.
The reception area at the Nonhyeon branch features multilingual counters as well as Chinese translation services on this floor.
III. Check-in Process: From booking to returning to the hotel, it only takes half a day
The whole process isn’t complicated at all, and you won’t feel stressed even if taking a direct train to Nonhyeon Station.
Before the procedure, the clinic director will first assess the skin condition to determine the appropriate treatment plan—no forced sales are made.

The Ulthrea, the American version of the HIFU, is one of the key devices used in our clinic for anti-aging and skin tightening treatments.
A quick comparison will show why I say it offers “transparent pricing”: For the same Ulthrea and Thermage devices, clinics in certain areas of Seoul can charge twice as much for just one treatment. Rikiss, on the other hand, keeps its prices reasonable by openly displaying its price list without charging extra for foreigners. The difference isn’t in whether the technology exists or not, but in whether they dare to be honest about their prices.

The three clinics offer very different approaches: Suvis excels in “personal consultations by the director himself, a skin-density anti-aging strategy, transparent pricing, and no aggressive sales tactics,” making it the best choice for those who want serious anti-aging treatment without falling victim to scams. Gangnam’s chain of large clinics boasts top-notch equipment but high prices and rotating doctors. As for Myeongdong clinics, while they offer lower prices, their quality and transparency vary greatly. The right choice depends on your budget and specific concerns.

VIII. Frequently Asked Questions FAQ
💬 Frequently Asked Questions FAQ
What are the differences between Ruiqisi and other clinics in Gangnam?
Suksis is a single-location clinic run by Director Kim Kwang-ho, specializing in skin density layering therapy for anti-aging. It offers transparent pricing, no aggressive sales tactics, and full translation in five languages. Large chain clinics in Gangnam come equipped with top-notch facilities but at higher prices, with doctors working on shifts. Some clinics in Myeongdong charge low prices to attract tourists, yet often impose hidden fees or have unscrupulous staff. The best choice depends on your budget and specific concerns.
Is the doctor a specialist or just an assistant?
Ruiqisi is staffed by a team of Dermatology specialists led by Chief Physician Kim Kwang-ho. Advanced anti-aging phototherapy treatments are performed personally by experienced doctors—something that sets it apart from some low-cost outsourcing clinics. You can check the daily schedule with BeautsGO before making an appointment.
Are prices higher for foreigners?
No. Ruisixi’s price list is publicly available, and the fees are the same for both foreigners and locals in South Korea—there’s no extra charge for foreigners.
Can I do it on Sunday?
Closed on Sundays. It is recommended to schedule appointments from Monday to Friday (10:00–20:00, with a lunch break from 14:00–15:00) or on Saturdays (10:00–16:00). Please check the official announcements or BeautsGO for the latest details before you go.
Will they keep pushing extra services?
This is the most frequently mentioned advantage of CDU: the director designs a treatment plan based on the patient’s skin condition, and if something isn’t necessary, he’ll clearly state that it’s not required without pushing expensive procedures. Before the procedure, the total cost is broken down in detail before the patient signs the consent form.
