Comparing 5 Contour Dermatology Clinics in Songpa-gu: How to Choose Based on 1,535 Reviews

Key Findings First

In the provided data, the clinics located in Songpa-gu (송파구) are 소솜피부과의원 (Sosom Dermatology Clinic) and 예솜의원 (Yesom Clinic). If you prioritize review volume and contour Botox-related reviews, Sosom Dermatology Clinic—with 712 Naver reviews and 103 Kakao reviews—offers a relatively large number of accounts of contour Botox experiences. Yesom Clinic has fewer reviews (50 Naver, 39 Kakao) but does have reviews about Botox consultations and treatments. That said, reviews alone cannot guarantee treatment outcomes or the skill of the medical staff.

The remaining clinics—샤인영의원 (Shine Young Clinic), 제이에프셀피부과의원 (JF Cell Dermatology Clinic), and 연세라헨느의원 (Yonsei Lahenne Clinic)—are in Gwangjin-gu or Gangnam-gu, not Songpa-gu. They can be compared as nearby alternatives, but check travel distance and treatment areas. The provided data states that the average Kakao Map rating across the five clinics is 4.0, but individual ratings are only confirmed for Shine Young Clinic (5) and JF Cell Dermatology Clinic (3.1). Therefore, the average including clinics with no confirmed individual rating cannot be independently verified.

Methodology and Limitations of the Data

The analysis covers 1,285 Naver Place visitor reviews and 250 Kakao Map reviews, for a total of 1,535. Review counts per clinic were summed based on the numbers provided, and the actual review content was organized by referring to the sample reviews provided, distinguishing mentions of contour/Botox from consultation, service, and treatment experiences. Health Insurance Review & Assessment Service (HIRA) specialist information is also included in the provided data, but for all five clinics this item is listed as "no information." This does not mean there is no specialist—it means it was not confirmed in this data.

Ratings are shown only as given in the provided data. Naver ratings were not provided for any of the five clinics; Sosom Dermatology Clinic is listed with a Google rating of 5, Shine Young Clinic with a Kakao rating of 5, JF Cell Dermatology Clinic with a Kakao rating of 3.1, and Yonsei Lahenne Clinic with a Google rating of 4. Yesom Clinic's rating is not confirmed. Total reviews are the sum of Naver and Kakao counts; Google review counts are not included in the total. Reviews are individual experiences and cannot be generalized to effectiveness or satisfaction. Sources are the Naver Place and Kakao Map reviews and HIRA specialist data provided by the user; hours, addresses, and amenities are based on the provided clinic information.

Detailed Analysis of Each Clinic

소솜피부과의원 (Sosom Dermatology Clinic) — The most reviews in Songpa-gu, with confirmed contour Botox reviews

According to the provided data, there are 712 Naver reviews and 103 Kakao reviews, totaling 815 across the two channels—the highest of the five clinics on these two channels. The Google rating is listed as 5, but the Google review count is also given as 0, so it is worth rechecking the basis and current display of the rating before visiting. Naver ratings and HIRA specialist information are not confirmed in the provided data. The sample reviews include many accounts of contour Botox and facial-shape concerns, but these are the authors' subjective assessments and do not guarantee changes in facial shape or duration.

"I've been getting contour Botox for a year, and so many people around me say my face looks smaller—I'm really satisfied." (IIiIiiIIl, October 17, 2026)

"I had a lot of facial space and a square jaw, and after Dr. Kim gave me contour Botox, my face shape looked prettier and people only told me I'd lost weight." (여니2668, October 17, 2026)

The address is 4F Jamsil Sigma Tower, 289 Olympic-ro, Songpa-gu, Seoul, about 138 m from Jamsil Station Exit 8. Hours are listed as 09:30–18:30 Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday, and Friday, and 09:30–15:00 Saturday; no hours are given for Thursday in the provided data. Night hours are not listed, and lunch hours are not confirmed. Reservations, Wi-Fi, waiting area, parking, and separate men's and women's restrooms are listed, but confirm parking conditions and bookable times by phone. Before visiting, asking the medical staff about target areas, dose/product, expected effects and side effects, and retreatment intervals for contour Botox can help with the consultation. The website is listed as a YouTube link in the provided data, and a blog is also listed. Before deciding on treatment, it is best to first be assessed for your individual condition, such as masseter muscle development and facial asymmetry.

예솜의원 (Yesom Clinic) — A clinic near Jamsil Saenae Station where you can check consultation and Botox reviews

There are 50 Naver reviews and 39 Kakao reviews, totaling 89. Ratings, HIRA specialist information, and amenities are not confirmed in the provided data, so it is difficult to rank this clinic against others based on review count alone. The sample reviews include comments about receiving careful Botox treatment and experiences with skin tone and pigmentation consultations. There is no data sufficient to conclude that the clinic specializes in contour Botox, so you should ask directly whether treatment for a square jaw or facial contour is available and what diagnostic process the medical staff follows.

"Everyone is kind, and the doctor especially does Botox carefully. He was so meticulous about where to place it that I'll only come here for Botox from now on." (세아이맘37, September 30, 2026)

"The doctor also looked carefully at my skin condition and didn't over-recommend; he explained only the treatments I needed, which made me trust him more." (wgj****, March 17, 2026)

The address is 4F Lecients Shopping Mall, 145 Olympic-ro, Songpa-gu, Seoul, about 17 m from Jamsil Saenae Station Exit 8. Hours are listed as 10:00–18:30 Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday, and Friday, and 10:00–20:00 Thursday. Thursday hours end relatively late, but confirm with the clinic whether this counts as separate night hours. Saturday hours are not in the provided data, and reviews mention being closed every other Saturday, so be sure to confirm before visiting. Lunch hours, parking, and booking methods are also not in the data, so inquire in advance. The website address is provided. If you are considering contour treatment, rather than only asking whether your face will look smaller, discuss indications, the range of expected changes, side effects, and post-treatment precautions, and record the treatment areas and plan.

샤인영의원 (Shine Young Clinic) — Located in Gwangjin-gu, with reviews about consultation explanations and waiting after booking

There are 396 Naver reviews and 102 Kakao reviews, totaling 498, with a separate Google review count listed as 1,934. The Kakao rating is 5. However, no Naver rating was provided and HIRA specialist information is not confirmed. The address is in Gwangjin-gu, Seoul, so for those seeking a dermatology clinic in Songpa-gu, this is not a local clinic but an alternative that requires travel. Sample reviews mention consultations about nasolabial folds, double chin, and cheek concerns, and Botox and lifting-device treatments, but this is not data that objectively proves the results of a specific contour treatment.

"You decide on treatment after consulting with the doctor, which was great—he explained things in such detail that I had nothing left to ask." (tmf****, October 15, 2026)

"I came through a friend's referral, got a discount, and the doctor explained things kindly~~~ I had a mole removed~~" (하늘냥이77, October 15, 2026)

The address is 203, 2F, 382 Gwangnaru-ro, Gwangjin-gu, Seoul, about 189 m from Children's Grand Park Station Exit 4. Hours are listed as 10:00–19:00 Monday, Tuesday, Thursday, and Friday, and 10:00–15:00 Saturday; no hours are provided for Wednesday. Separate night hours and lunch hours are not confirmed, so ask when booking. Reservations, parking, Wi-Fi, and a waiting area are listed, but the number of parking spaces and conditions of use need to be confirmed. Reviews include examples of being admitted right after booking or waiting less than 10 minutes, but this is not information that guarantees the same wait every day. If you are visiting for contour treatment, discuss which treatments are possible for each concern area, such as double chin or sagging cheeks, and the limits and recovery period of each, then decide. The website, blog, and Instagram are listed in the provided data.

제이에프셀피부과의원 (JF Cell Dermatology Clinic) — Near Bongeunsa Station in Gangnam-gu, with reviews on skin care and impression Botox

There are 64 Naver reviews and 5 Kakao reviews, totaling 69, with a separate Google review count of 703. The Kakao rating is given as 3.1. Because review counts vary widely by channel and Kakao reviews are few, it is difficult to judge overall satisfaction from a single platform's score. HIRA specialist information and Naver ratings are not confirmed. The address is in Gangnam-gu, Seoul, so it is not a clinic in Songpa-gu; those seeking a clinic near Songpa-gu should consider travel time. Reviews include experiences with skin-condition-tailored care, CureJet, and impression Botox, but keep in mind these are individual experiences.

"They manage your skin according to your condition. Every visit, the doctor also comes in, checks your condition, and treats you." (Ddjdjfjuffj40, October 7, 2026)

"It was my first visit, and I liked the comfortable atmosphere and the detailed consultation with the doctor and staff. They reflected the natural look I wanted for a complex I had, and I was satisfied with the treatment." (아이스라떼덕후, August 26, 2025)

It is about 25 m from Bongeunsa Station Exit 1, at 2–5F, 539 Bongeunsa-ro, Gangnam-gu, Seoul. Hours are listed as 10:30–19:30 Monday–Friday; Saturday and Sunday hours are not provided. Separate night hours and lunch hours are not confirmed. Reservations, parking, and Wi-Fi are listed, but ask before visiting about parking method and cost and which floor the clinic is on. Reviews include both satisfying and dissatisfying service experiences, so it is good to check the consultation process and whether explanations are sufficient for yourself. If you are looking into contour Botox or impression-related treatments, ask specifically not only whether the desired change is possible but also about changes in expression, the possibility of asymmetry, and post-treatment care. The website, blog, and Instagram are in the provided data.

연세라헨느의원 (Yonsei Lahenne Clinic) — Near Samseong Station, with relatively late weekday hours and Saturday hours listed

There are 63 Naver reviews and 1 Kakao review, totaling 64, with a separate Google review count of 13. The Google rating is given as 4. Naver/Kakao ratings and HIRA specialist information are not confirmed, so ratings or specialist status cannot be judged from this data alone. Sample reviews include experiences with mole and hemangioma removal and body treatments, and no specific reviews about contour Botox or facial contour treatment are confirmed in the provided examples. If your goal is contour treatment, first ask whether the clinic actually provides that treatment, then book a consultation.

"I had a hemangioma and a fairly large mole removed; the price was cheaper than in Gyeonggi-do, they used plenty of numbing cream and gave me an injection, so it was the least painful mole removal I've had." (hon****, June 16, 2026)

"The staff and the doctor were all very kind and did the treatment carefully, so I was satisfied. I think I'll use this place often." (자몽2790, May 26, 2025)

The address is 201–202, 2F, Magellan 21 Asterium, 17 Tehran-ro 87-gil, Gangnam-gu, Seoul, about 419 m from Samseong Station Exit 5. Hours are listed as 10:00–19:30 Monday and Tuesday, 10:00–20:30 Wednesday and Friday, and 10:00–17:00 Saturday. Thursday hours are not in the provided data; Wednesday and Friday run relatively late, but confirm whether this counts as separate night hours. Lunch hours are also not listed in the data. Reservations, parking, and Wi-Fi are listed, but ask in advance about parking conditions and bookable times. Even if a review example mentions waiting less than 10 minutes, actual wait times may vary. If you are seeking contour treatment, confirm the treatment type, treatment areas, expected recovery period, and total cost before the consultation, and decide after being given options suited to your individual condition.

Checklist for Choosing a Contour Dermatology Clinic

• Medical staff and scope of care — Check the license and specialty of the attending medical staff and whether the clinic actually provides the contour treatment you want.
• Diagnosis of your facial condition — Check whether the clinic distinguishes and explains the cause of your concern, such as muscle, fat, or skin sagging.
• Indications and limits of treatment — Ask not only about the changes you can expect but also about cases where effects may be limited.
• Treatment plan and dose — Get specific information on areas, dose, product or device, and treatment intervals.
• Side effects and how to handle them — Confirm common adverse reactions, rare but important symptoms, and how to contact the clinic if a problem occurs.
• Costs and additional charges — Ask about total cost including consultation, treatment, and follow-up fees, as well as refund and change conditions.
• Before and after treatment — Tell them about medications you take or conditions you have, and confirm post-treatment precautions and recovery time.
• Consultation style — See whether they give you enough time to ask questions and explain the available alternatives.
• Interpreting reviews — Use review counts and ratings only as reference, and compare whether the timing and treatment type match your situation.
• Booking and operations — Confirm closed days, lunch hours, parking, and same-day availability before visiting.

Warning Signs to Watch For

• Explanations that assert or guarantee results — Facial changes and duration vary by individual, so be wary of promises of definitive results.
• Being rushed into treatment without diagnosis — If you are strongly pushed to pay or be treated the same day without an explanation of the cause and indications, ask more questions before deciding.
• No explanation of side effects, alternatives, or recovery — If you are told only about benefits, you should also ask about risks and alternative options.
• Unclear costs and treatment details — Before paying, confirm the treatment areas, number of sessions, dose, and total amount, and keep a record of what you were told.

Frequently Asked Questions

If I'm looking for a contour dermatology clinic in Songpa-gu, where should I start comparing?

Based on the provided data, the clinics located in Songpa-gu are Sosom Dermatology Clinic and Yesom Clinic. Sosom Dermatology Clinic has 815 combined Naver and Kakao reviews and sample contour Botox reviews, while Yesom Clinic has 89 combined reviews and Botox consultation reviews. Beyond reviews, compare based on the cause of your concern and what you learn in consultation with the medical staff.

Does the clinic with the most reviews also do the best contour work?

No. Review count only shows the volume of reviews registered on a platform and does not prove treatment outcomes or safety. Check when reviews were written and what treatment they refer to, and get an explanation of individual indications and side effects during consultation.

Do all five clinics have dermatology specialists?

In the provided HIRA specialist information, all five are marked "no information." This cannot be interpreted to mean there is no specialist. Before visiting, check the Health Insurance Review & Assessment Service public information yourself or ask the clinic about the qualifications and scope of care of the attending medical staff.

I don't speak Korean well. How can I check whether a clinic has English-speaking staff?

The provided data does not include information on foreign-language support for any of the clinics, so we cannot confirm that any of them has English-speaking staff. If you need an English-speaking dermatologist or English-speaking clinic, call the clinic or check its booking page before visiting and ask directly whether English-speaking staff are available and whether appointments can be made in English. Language support varies by clinic, so confirm it in advance rather than assuming it.

Why are clinics outside Songpa-gu included in the comparison?

Of the five candidates provided, Shine Young Clinic is in Gwangjin-gu, and JF Cell Dermatology Clinic and Yonsei Lahenne Clinic are in Gangnam-gu. They are marked separately so they are not mistaken for clinics in Songpa-gu; they are comparison items for those who want to expand their options to nearby areas.

Where should I check night hours and lunch hours?

Lunch hours are not listed for any clinic in the provided data, and hours for some days are missing. Yesom Clinic is listed as open until 20:00 on Thursday, and Yonsei Lahenne Clinic until 20:30 on Wednesday and Friday, but confirm actual operations, lunch hours, and closed days with the clinic before booking.

What should I be sure to ask in a contour Botox consultation?

Ask about the cause of your current facial-shape concern, whether the treatment is suitable, expected changes and limits, side effects, treatment intervals, total cost, and post-treatment precautions. Rather than whether the desired change is guaranteed, it is important to get an explanation of whether the option is suitable for you.

Final Thoughts

If you want to start by looking at contour-related reviews within Songpa-gu, you can first compare Sosom Dermatology Clinic and Yesom Clinic.
