For beauty-conscious Taiwanese women, going to South Korea for cosmetic treatments has become routine. Among these treatments, gold microneedling is particularly popular as a solution for pore problems, acne scars, and rough skin. However, many people have encountered unfair practices: online prices vary greatly, and hidden fees often emerge once at the clinic. What was meant to be a way to look better can easily turn into an expensive experience.
In this article, we visited the highly popular Danya Dermatology in Myeongdong, Seoul, and revealed the actual prices of gold microneedling and similar treatments. No tricks or hidden costs—Taiwanese customers can refer to these details directly before going to South Korea, so they can avoid being overcharged.
