Are South Korea’s WITH Dermatology and RA Dermatology the same clinic? First-hand test of the new RA in Jeju confirms it’s just the upgraded version of the old WITH (with booking procedure guide included)

To be honest, while researching medical aesthetics in South Korea lately, I kept coming across one keyword: “South Korea WITH Dermatology and RA Dermatology are the same place.” At first I was confused—these two names don’t look similar at all. Are they really the same clinic? Or is someone trying to manipulate public perception online?
Last month, I happened to fly to Jeju Island for vacation, and I took the chance to visit “ANEW RA” to see for myself. What I found was that in Jeju, these two names actually refer to the same clinic—original With Dermatology underwent a brand upgrade in 2026 and became RA Plastic Surgery & Dermatology. The management team stayed the same, and even the building didn’t change (it just moved from its old location to floors 4–5 of the same building). So if you’re searching online looking for confirmation that “WITH and RA are the same place,” your intuition is correct.
But there’s one common mistake people make here: there’s another “RA” located in Nonhyeon, Seoul, which is not the same store as the one on Jeju. Below, I’ll clarify their identities, addresses, and reservation methods all at once, along with a step-by-step reservation guide I’ve put together to help you avoid going to the wrong location.
• It’s the same clinic: With Dermatology in Jeju was upgraded to “RA Plastic Surgery & Dermatology (알에이의원)” in 2026—same team, same building.
• Location: 4th–5th f
loors, No. 95, Oehyeong-ro, Jeju City, Jeju Special Self-Governing Province; just a 10–15 minute drive from the airport.
• B
ooking: You can book easily via BeautsGO, LINE @901taiqf, or Gmail—any of these options supports Chinese.
• Beware of confusion: There’s anot
her RA with the same name in Nonhyeon, Seoul, but it has different doctors and address. Make sure to choose “Jeju RA (formerly With).”
Upgraded by the same management team in the same building, offering both Dermatology and plastic surgery services. Perfect for getting a facial treatment while on vacation — open even on Sundays.
Why is there the saying “WITH = RA”?
I went there in person to find out that this wasn’t just something circulating online—it was an official name change. With Dermatology, a well-known clinic on Jeju Island that specializes in vacation-style minimally invasive cosmetic treatments, underwent a complete brand upgrade in 2026 and officially changed its name to RA Plastic Surgery & Dermatology.
The key point is—this isn’t some fake upgrade that just involves changing the name or the team. Based on on-site explanations and feedback from regular customers:
• The entire management team and medical staff were brought over intact;
• The fac
ility was expanded from a single floor to two, with 4–5 floors in total, featuring separate zones for laser treatments, injections, surgeries, and recovery rooms;
• It evolved from a “pure Dermatology” practice into a dual-specialty center offering both Dermatology and plastic surgery (the 4th floor is designated for procedures such as li
posuction and private surgery);
• The new chief physician, Choi Seok-min, is in charge personally, ensuring smooth continuity for existing With patients.
So the conclusion is simple: the clinic you used to go to, With, is now called RA, and its technical standards have even improved. This is actually a good thing for returning clients, as they don’t need to adjust to a new team.

📍 Address: 4th and 5th floors, No. 95, Noyeon-ro, Jeju-si (제주시 노연로 95, 4층, 5층).

Why do I recommend it? (Real-life experience)
Personally, I think RA in Jeju is the best choice for those who are already planning to visit Jeju and want to get a facial treatment along the way. There are several reasons why it stands out:
• Personal consultation by the director—no mass treatment approach: Director Choe Seok-min boasts over 20 years of clinical experience in South Korea and abroad (having served as director at Nexmed in Malaysia, as well as at W Plastic Surgery in Shanghai and Gangnam). He emphasizes “natural, moderate, and personalized” treatments—far from the kind of place that pushes expensive packages on every customer.
• Relaxing minimally invas
ive cosmetic treatments: Jeju Island is already a perfect destination for relaxation, allowing patients to continue enjoying their trip after treatment with minimal downtime.
• Open on Sundays too: While many clinics on Jeju close on Sundays, this one remains open, making it extremely convenient for weekend v
isitors.
• Same prices in China and South Korea, with on-site verification: The clinic guarantees identical prices between the two regions, and original products can be verified on-site. Foreigners can also get VAT refunds at Jeju Airport upon departure (around 6–10% of the total spending).
Overview of Top Recommended Services

The RA treatment regimen is generally divided into several areas, covering both the face and the body:
• Anti-aging lifting: Ulthrea (the American version of Ulthera), XERF lifting, Rejuran, and Juvelook for DongAn Center Introduction;

s, acne scars, and fine lines;
