Real rejuvenation happens cell by cell – Gangnam Celliting Clinic philosophy
Our philosophy

Real rejuvenation happens cell by cell.

It deserves a doctor’s full attention. We favour natural, timeless results over drastic change, and prevention as much as treatment.

Our story began in 2007 in Gangnam. Dr. Kim joined in 2012 and expanded the surgical center; a dedicated stem cell center followed in 2021. In September 2025 we reopened as Gangnam Celliting Clinic, to say out loud what we had always practiced quietly.

FAQ

Answers from our doctors.

Reviewed by Dr. Ho-chan Kim, MD, PhD · Updated October 2026

Who performs my anti-aging treatment?

Every consultation and procedure is performed personally by one of our two MD-PhD medical directors, Dr. Ho-chan Kim or Dr. Young-mi Rhee. Treatments are never handed off, and both directors join for major procedures.

Is Gangnam Celliting Clinic approved for stem cell treatment?

Yes. On June 15, 2026 the Korean Ministry of Health and Welfare approved the clinic as an Advanced Regenerative Medicine Institution. We have performed 450+ stem cell treatments since our Stem Cell Center opened in 2021.

Do you speak English?

Yes. We support English, Chinese, Japanese and Vietnamese, and were selected as one of 21 Gangnam-gu Official Partner Clinics for International Patients. Book by WhatsApp at +82-10-4567-3237.

How long should I stay in Seoul?

Many lifting and booster treatments can be done in one visit with minimal downtime; stem cell and combination programs may need several days. Your doctor will recommend a stay length at consultation, and you receive a free 3-month follow-up after returning home.

Are treatments painful?

We match pain control to each procedure: monitored sleep sedation, AirNox nitrous-oxygen analgesia, the X-injector, and topical or local anesthesia.
