What is the background of Seoul Gangnam Peche Peishu Dermatology? An analysis of the reasons behind its sudden popularity on Dcard.
💡
Last month, I came across a widely shared post on the South Korea Dermatology section of Dcard. The subject of the post was the Peche Dermatology clinic located in Gangnam, Seoul. That single post attracted hundreds of comments, and many Taiwanese sisters mentioned, “It’s this clinic! I’ve also gotten treatments there!” Which piqued my curiosity greatly.
Peche (Korean: 페쉬), located in Gangnam District, Seoul, is a Dermatology clinic that specializes in Filler injections, Pico laser treatments, and customized skin care programs. Dr. Ahn Tae-eon personally oversees the treatment of each patient, adhering to a “direct consultation system” where assistants are not involved in the procedure. The clinic provides services in English, Japanese, and Traditional Chinese, making it particularly welcoming to foreign visitors.
What stands out most about this clinic is its design featuring open and transparent spaces. All treatment procedures take place in these openly accessible areas, allowing patients to feel at ease while eliminating any concerns about whether the doctors are actually performing the procedures themselves.
President Ahn Tae-eon: 30,000 cases of clinical experience – beauty, online.
🏥
Director Ahn Tae-eon is a physician who holds official membership in several organizations, including the Korean Dermatology Society, the Korean Medical Laser Association, and the Korean Cosmetic Dermatology Association. He has served as the director of the Gangnam flagship clinic and the Ansan clinic of MUSE Clinic from 2021 to 2022 and from 2022 to 2024 respectively, and has performed over 30,000 skin treatments and cosmetic procedures in total.
To be honest, the technique of Filler injections truly requires great aesthetic judgment and skill on the part of the practitioner. Sisters who have undergone Juvederm injections at Peche generally report that the practitioner’s injection points are precise, and the improvement in facial contours is very natural, without any sense of “artificial filling”. Moreover, since the practitioner himself/herself looks young and handsome, and is also particularly gentle and attentive, the entire consultation process feels very caring and considerate.
4 reasons to visit Peche Peishu Dermatology in Gangnam, Seoul: It’s not just because the director is so handsome…
💎
Merely calling it “the leader among hospital directors” is obviously not enough. What I want to explain to you here is Peche’s core strengths and why it enjoys such a good reputation among foreign tourists.
- Multi-language services for seamless communication: Peche offers medical consultations in three languages—English, Japanese, and Traditional Chinese. All our in-hospital administrators have a professional background in dermatology. During consultations, we always focus on your specific skin needs and never recommend unnecessary treatments.
- Personal evaluation and treatment by the director: All treatments are diagnosed and performed personally by Director Ahn, without any assistants being involved in the process. This is particularly important for visitors who are going to South Korea for medical aesthetics treatments for the first time.
- Transparent Open rhinoplasty design: The entire procedure is carried out in an open environment, allowing patients to clearly see every step of the treatment and ensuring that they are aware of the specific procedures being performed and that no equipment is being substituted without their knowledge.
- Open all year round, with appointments available until 9 p.m. – your schedule is highly flexible, and you don’t have to comply with any unusual office hours. So, whether you suddenly decide to visit on a weekend or holiday, you don’t have to worry about running into closed doors.
My Experience with Juvederm Filler Injections at Peche Pei Shu Dermatology: A True Account
💉
According to the experiences shared by many sisters who have actually undergone this treatment on Dcard, the process of getting Juvederm injections at Peche is roughly as follows:
The anesthetic takes effect in about 20 minutes. During this time, the nurse will discuss in detail with you the desired results and the current issues with your skin condition. The entire consultation process is relaxed, without any sense of pressure to make a quick decision. During the actual injection, the clinic director will mark each injection site one by one. The stinging sensation on both sides of the nose and in the Apple Zone is relatively noticeable but still tolerable; the areas around the cheeks and Nasolabial Fold Correction are less sensitive, with a more pronounced feeling of soreness and swelling than stinging.
It is normal for the face to feel slightly swollen after the procedure, and mild bruising within 24 hours is also expected. The effects generally begin to stabilize around the 3rd day after the injection and last for 6 to 12 months, depending on individual metabolic differences. What many clients have consistently praised is that the director’s aesthetic vision is truly reflected in the results: the overall facial shape is naturally enhanced without any obvious signs of the procedure, which is what makes it particularly remarkable.
Peche Pei Shu Dermatology Pico Laser: The ideal choice for skin improvement suitable for Taiwanese people
🫧
Pico laser is another popular treatment among foreign tourists at Peche. For common issues such as sunspots, liver spots, and pigmentation scars among Taiwanese women, the improvement effects achieved by Pico laser are quite significant.
The Pico treatments at Peche are performed personally by the clinic director. Before the procedure, professional equipment is used to analyze the patient’s skin condition, and the energy parameters are customized based on factors such as skin type, the depth of pigmentation, and the current state of the skin barrier, rather than simply following a standard procedure. After the treatment, a specialist will also provide detailed instructions on how to take care of your skin after returning home, including the importance of sun protection, things to avoid, and methods for monitoring the skin’s progress.

💰
The official price of Peche has not yet been fully disclosed to the public. It is recommended to inquire about the price in advance through BeautsGO or official channels. The following are reference fees compiled based on publicly available information and feedback from customers (the actual price may vary depending on the current rates at the clinic):

Essential tips for post-treatment care at Peche Pei Shu Dermatology: These are the most important things to do after returning to Taiwan.
📱
After returning to Taiwan following a cosmetic procedure, proper post-operative care is crucial for maintaining the results. Below are some key points that both medical institutions and patients have shared:
- Within 24 hours after Filler injection: Do not press on the injection site, avoid strenuous exercise, and refrain from taking hot baths or steam showers.
- Within 1 week after the Pico laser treatment: strictly avoid sun exposure (SPF50+/PA++++), and do not use skincare products containing alcohol or fruit acids.
- 48 hours after the procedure: Try to avoid wearing makeup, especially concealer, to allow your skin to breathe and recover properly.
- Within 1 month after returning to Taiwan: Continue to hydrate and maintain moisture, and use mild sun protection products to ensure longer-lasting results.
- If you notice any abnormal swelling or persistent redness, please contact the Peche Clinic immediately – we accept Chinese-speaking patients, so don’t hesitate to seek help.
Who is Peche Pei Shu Dermatology suitable for? And who is it not suitable for?
👭
Based on the actual experiences shared by many travelers, here are the groups of people for whom Peche is particularly suitable:
- This is my first time undergoing medical beauty treatments in Korea, and I am looking for a safe and reliable environment.
- Tourists from Taiwan/Hong Kong/Macao who have limited language skills (do not understand Korean) and require services in Chinese or English.
- Sisters who want to get Filler injections but are worried that the results won’t match the aesthetic standards of Asian facial features
- Those who require overall management in Dermatology and hope that the hospital director will personally assess and customize a treatment plan for them
- South Korea independent travelers with a busy schedule (available for consultations throughout the year, until 9 p.m.)
In contrast, the following situations may be less suitable:
- Pregnancy and lactation periods (Filler treatments are absolutely not suitable during these times).
- If you have a body type prone to keloid formation, it is necessary to inform the hospital director for an assessment first.
- My budget is very limited; I am looking for the lowest-priced clinic possible (Peche targets the mid-to-high-end market).
- If the itinerary is very short (such as a one-day tour) and no reservation is made in advance, a certain amount of recovery time will be required after the procedure.
⚠️
4 Common Misconceptions I Had Before Visiting Peche Pei Shu Dermatology
⚠️ Mistake 1: Thinking that you can start the procedure immediately upon arrival, without making an appointment in advance.
President Peche’s system of personal consultations means that every patient requires sufficient time for a thorough evaluation. During peak periods, it is very easy to fill all the available slots, especially around holidays and on weekends. Many tourists arrive in Seoul only at the last minute and are then informed that there are no available appointments on that day, resulting in a wasted trip.
→ How to avoid it: Make a reservation at least 2 weeks in advance through BeautsGO or the official Chinese channels, and confirm the specific time slot before booking your flight.
⚠️ Pit 2: Mistaking “open spaces” for places where privacy does not exist
Some ladies are concerned about privacy issues when they see the term “fully transparent and open space.” In fact, the design of Peche ensures that you can observe the entire treatment process, but it doesn’t allow other patients to see your face. Each treatment area is equipped with appropriate partitions and privacy features, creating a relatively private environment during the treatment.
→ How to avoid it: Simply ask the nurses in Chinese about the privacy measures during treatment, and they will provide you with detailed explanations.
⚠️ Mistake 3: Assuming that the costs would be the same as those in Taiwan without checking the prices in advance.
The pricing of Juvederm Filler at Seoul Gangnam Dermatology is different from that in Taiwan, and the cost varies significantly depending on the injection site and dosage. Some tourists assume that “things are cheaper in South Korea,” only to be surprised upon arrival; others may initially think that “high-end clinics are very expensive” but later find that the cost-performance ratio is actually higher than they expected.
→ How to avoid this: Before setting off, please inquire about the fees in advance through BeautsGO or WeChat Hannah972 to have a clear idea before you depart.
⚠️ Mistake 4: Failing to bring enough sunscreen and moisturizers back to Taiwan after the procedure
After undergoing Pico treatments and glow therapies, the skin becomes significantly more sensitive to ultraviolet rays. If proper sun protection measures are not taken upon returning to Taiwan, the spots that were painstakingly removed are likely to reappear, sometimes even more noticeable than before. Many tourists who did not prepare high-factor sunscreen in South Korea regret it once they get back home.
→ How to avoid it: Buy SPF50+/PA++++ sunscreen at Olive Young in Seoul or at airport duty-free shops before returning to Taiwan, and make sure to bring enough for a month’s use.
