About G Clinic

Two decades of care, under three resident directors.

G Clinic has cared for international patients in Gangnam, Seoul since 2006. The clinic is run under a three-director partnership — Dr. Hong Seung-hyuk, Dr. Maeng Woo-jae and Dr. Hong Yeong-ho — all resident on site, so your consultation and treatment are carried out by a director rather than a substitute practitioner.

All three are Family Medicine specialists trained at Kyung Hee University College of Medicine. Dr. Hong Seung-hyuk chairs the Korean Rejuvenation & Obesity Aesthetic Medicine Association (KORA); Dr. Maeng Woo-jae chairs the Korean Association of Obesity Treatment (KAOT). Together they co-translated the reference volume Body Shaping: Skin · Fat · Cellulite (2016). Consultation is conducted in fluent English, with nine-language messenger support before and after your visit to the clinic at Emerald Tower on Dosan-daero.

Consultations are held in fluent English on site. For your other questions, messenger support covers nine languages — English, Japanese, Chinese (Traditional and Simplified), Thai, Vietnamese, Indonesian, Mongolian and Arabic — so you can write in the language you are most comfortable with.
Can I have my consultation and treatment on the same day?
This is decided case-by-case at your consultation. Your director first assesses whether a treatment is suitable for you; whether it can proceed the same day depends on that assessment and your schedule. Please raise it when you book so we can plan your visit.
What payment methods do you accept?
Accepted payment methods are discussed at your consultation, so we can confirm the options that apply to your visit. Please ask our team through the consultation form and we will explain what is available before you travel.
Can I see before-and-after photos for my specific concern?

Yes. We stay reachable through your chosen messenger after your visit, so aftercare questions can be answered wherever you are. Your director may also suggest a revisit or follow-up plan depending on the treatment you received.
What does it mean that the directors are Family Medicine specialists?
All three directors are board-certified specialists in Family Medicine, a primary-care specialty focused on whole-patient assessment. At G Clinic they practise aesthetic medicine within that background, assessing your overall suitability before recommending any treatment.
How many G-fat sessions are usually involved?
The number of sessions varies from person to person, and depends on the area treated and your goals. As a general matter, G-fat is often planned as a short course rather than a single visit. Your director confirms a plan for you at consultation.
Can lifting be combined with body treatments?
In general, facial lifting and body contouring address different areas and can be considered together. Whether that is appropriate for you, and in what order, is determined by your director based on your assessment at consultation.
How do I make a booking?
Complete the consultation form with your preferred messenger and treatment interest. Our team replies to arrange a convenient time, answer your questions in your language, and confirm the details of your visit before you travel.
