Hello everyone! I'm Quynh, and I'm considering going for aesthetic consultations in Seoul, but I'm a bit worried about the language barrier. I can speak English, but not very fluently, and my Korean is limited to a few basic words. Has anyone here gone for consultations there using only English or a translator? How effective was it?
I'm concerned that during consultations, I'll need to thoroughly understand medical details, treatment options, post-care instructions, etc. I'm afraid of missing important information if I rely solely on English or a translation app. Does anyone have any experience or know of any places that are more international-friendly?
Thank you all in advance! 🙏

Hi Quynh! I totally understand your concern about language—it's definitely important for health consultations. Have you tried looking for a clinic with English-speaking staff or even a translator? Or are you planning to have an online consultation first before coming to Seoul?
Hi Quynh! I totally understand your concerns, because I felt the same way when I first came to Seoul 😅 You should try to find a place with English-speaking staff or ask them to use a reliable translator app—it's a bit of a hassle but it can help ensure medical information is clearly communicated. Good luck!
