New opening in 2026! Comprehensive review of Gangnam peche Dermatology: introductions to HIFU, Thermage, and Pico treatments + reservation tips

A friend told me at the end of last year that there was a new Dermatology clinic near the Gangnam station called “peche Peche” and asked if I had heard of it. To be honest, I wasn’t sure at first, but after doing some research, I found out that this clinic didn’t actually open until 2026. So it’s relatively new in the Gangnam area, but it has quickly become very popular. Since several friends said they had already made appointments there, I decided to compile the information I gathered for those of you who are considering getting medical treatments in Gangnam.

What is the background of Gangnam peche Dermatology? It just opened in 2026, but it has already become extremely popular.

Pêche Clinic, a Dermatology practice, is located on the 3rd floor of 364 Gangnam-daero, Gangnam-gu, Seoul. The building it occupies is called “Meiwang Building”. You can reach it by walking for about 2-3 minutes after exiting Exit 4 of Gangnam Station on Line 2 or the ANEW Bundang Line – the transportation is truly convenient.

It opened in 2026, so it can be considered quite ANEW. But why has it become so popular so quickly? There are mainly several factors that have resonated with people:

• Same price in South Korea and China: Foreign tourists do not have to pay an additional fee; they pay the same amount as local South Koreans. This is really rare in the Gangnam area.

• Direct consultation by the director: Director Antain personally conducts consultations on a regular basis, rather than delegating this task to intern doctors.

• Open 24/7: 10:30–21:00 on weekdays and 10:00–18:00 on weekends, offering greater flexibility than many other clinics.

• There is a Chinese-speaking supervisor in charge; therefore, you don’t need to worry about language barriers at all when communicating.

Just these few points alone make the process much more convenient for overseas tourists compared to going to an ordinary clinic.

What are the flagship services of Peche Dermatology? I’ve sorted them out for you.

After checking several platforms, I categorized their main services into the following areas:

Anti-aging and lifting products (the most frequently asked about)

HIFU is the treatment they mention most frequently. The principle behind it is to use high-intensity focused ultrasound to penetrate deep into the dermis and SMAS fascia layer, stimulating the contraction and regeneration of Collagen and thus achieving Lifting effects. Typically, the results of a single treatment last for around 6 months to 1 year, making it suitable for those who wish to improve sagging facial features or unclear jawlines.

Thermage FLX is also one of their strengths, especially when it comes to eye treatments with Thermage. Many people, after undergoing full-face HIFU, find that the wrinkles around their eyes have not been adequately addressed, so they opt for an additional 450-shot treatment specifically for the eyes. Unlike HIFU, which acts on different layers of the skin, Thermage primarily targets the dermis, providing significant improvements in areas such as crow’s feet and drooping eyelids.

They also offer a combined package that includes HIFU, onda lipolysis, and lipolytic injections. This package uses 400 HIFU treatments combined with 80,000 joules of onda energy, making it ideal for those who wish to Lifting their facial features while reducing localized fat accumulation. The approximate reference price for this package is around 2.069 million Korean won.

Pico laser (Picosure)

Pico laser has become a particularly popular treatment for removing freckles in recent years. Its pulses are shorter than those of traditional nanosecond lasers, resulting in less damage to surrounding tissues and a faster recovery time. Peche offers Pico laser treatments, which are suitable for addressing pigmentation issues such as freckles, sunspots, and liver spots, as well as for enhancing the overall brightness of the skin.

If you simply want to undergo a “skin brightening emergency treatment,” Pico is a relatively direct option; however, for long-term issues related to photoaging or skin laxity, it is recommended to consult a doctor first to determine whether the use of HIFU or Thermage is necessary.

Hydrofiller and injectable treatments

Hydrofiller injections and Filler treatments are the two most commonly requested injectable procedures in Dermatology. Peche offers Rejuran hydrofiller, which contains PDRN (Polydeoxyribonucleotides) and is also known as “salmon needle.” Its primary effects include repairing the skin barrier, increasing skin thickness, and improving overall skin quality. It does not simply provide hydration; rather, it has a more restorative effect, targeting the deeper layers of the skin. This treatment is suitable for individuals with thinner skin, more prominent Pores, or mild indentations that require correction.

Regarding Filler injections, you can confirm the specific products to be used during the consultation. Different areas (Tear trough correction, Apple Zone, cheeks) require different types of Filler, so it is not advisable to try to match products on your own. It is best to follow the doctor’s recommendations during the in-person consultation.

Before going to Peche, remember these numbers.

I have compiled a list of relatively common reference prices (in Korean won) for your reference when preparing a budget before traveling:

A few additional notes:

• The prices listed above are for reference only, based on aggregated information. The actual fees will be subject to the rates quoted by the clinic on the day of service and may not remain fixed.

• Peche adopts a uniform pricing policy, emphasizing that prices do not vary from person to person. However, if there are specific packages or promotional periods available, it is recommended to confirm directly with the Chinese-speaking manager.

• Reservations made 3 days in advance are eligible for a discount. This promotion has been ongoing for some time, so you can check the current discounts available through the BeautsGO APP before making your trip.

If you want to schedule a consultation with Peche, this is the most hassle-free way to do it right now.

At present, there are mainly two ways to make an appointment at Peche Dermatology:

Making appointments through the BeautsGO APP is the most commonly used method by foreign tourists. On this platform, users can directly view the schedule of peche’s doctors, details about various treatments, and reviews from other users. After an appointment is confirmed, a notification will be sent. The Chinese-language interface is very user-friendly. If this is your first time visiting a Dermatology clinic in South Korea and you are not familiar with the process, this platform provides quite good guidance for foreign users.

In addition, Peche offers the service of Chinese-speaking managers, so you can communicate in Chinese without worrying about language barriers. When making an appointment, you can ask a Chinese-speaking manager to assist you in confirming the consultation time and the details of the treatment.

I wonder which type of person would be more suitable for going to Peche?

After reviewing the information, I got the overall impression that Peche seems to follow a approach of “precision diagnosis + transparent pricing,” rather than the style of aggressively adding multiple services or aggressively promoting packages. In their promotional materials, they particularly emphasize that “consultations focus on listening and no additional sales are pushed.” This aspect is definitely a plus for those who don’t want to be bombarded with unnecessary sales pitches.

The target demographic for this service would likely be:

• When visiting a Dermatology clinic in South Korea for the first time, it is advisable to start with a relatively new institution that has a good reputation for cleanliness and hygiene.

• Foreign tourists who care about the same prices in China and South Korea and do not want to be overcharged

• The main goal is to undergo Lifting using HIFU.

• For those who face language barriers and would like Chinese-speaking assistance throughout the entire process.

If you already have a clear list of projects in mind and are looking for established complexes in Gangnam, Peche may not be the first choice. However, if what you want is an environment that is less commercialized and characterized by more genuine communication, they are definitely worth considering further.

For those considering visiting a Dermatology clinic in South Korea, remember to check the latest schedule and discounts offered by peche using the BeautsGO APP before making an appointment. This will help you save a lot of time. If you have any further questions, you can also get in touch the Chinese-speaking manager directly through the platform.
