Hi, my name is Game and I'm planning to visit Cellosak to learn more about skincare and beauty. However, I'm very worried about the language barrier. Is my English good enough for a consultation with a doctor, or should I make a note beforehand that I'll need an interpreter?
Has anyone had a consultation at Cellosak before? Could you share your experience? How does the clinic handle English-speaking clients, or do they prefer that you bring an interpreter? I'm confident they're used to international clients, but I'd still like some reassurance from other people's experiences.
Or, has anyone read any helpful information or tips on preparing for a visit? Thanks in advance!

Hello! Quick question - did you try contacting them before your appointment to make sure a translator is available? I'm also worried about the same thing and would like to know if the staff respond quickly to emails 😊
I was worried about this too when I first came to Seoul! Actually, most beauty salons here have staff who speak English or at least understand it, because they're used to working with international clients. I recommend emailing them beforehand or contacting them via Instagram to ask about language support, so you'll feel less anxious on the day of your appointment. Good luck! 😊
I went for a check-up in Seoul last time and there were staff members who spoke English, but since my English isn't very good, it was still a bit difficult 😅 I suggest you call ahead to ask if they have translators, or prepare some key questions in English beforehand to make communication easier!
I totally understand the worry! Language is indeed the biggest barrier during aesthetic consultations. From my friends' experiences, most places in Korea can handle English quite well, but it can be a bit difficult to get into the specific technical details of treatments. It might be worth considering a translator or at least downloading the Google Translate app to feel more at ease during your consultation 😊
