BANOBAGI Dermatologic Clinic (바노바기피부과의원) is the dermatology clinic of the Banobagi medical group in Gangnam-gu, Seoul. The group began as Ye Plastic Surgery in 2000 and took the Banobagi name in 2007. The dermatology clinic opened in March 2009, the same year the group set up an overseas business division and registered as a medical institution for attracting foreign patients. In July 2023 the clinic expanded into the Doonam Building at 219 Bongeunsa-ro, near Eonju Station on Seoul Subway Line 9. It occupies the first to fifth floors and shares the building with the group's cosmetics division.
The clinic's doctor page lists three board-certified dermatologists: the representative directors Ban Jae-yong and Jeon Hee-dae, who both qualified as dermatology specialists in 2001, and Kim Min-seok. The medical team also includes Kang Min-ji, a specialist in anaesthesiology and pain medicine, and two further physicians. The English site groups treatments into lifting and elasticity, hydration and glow, fillers and collagen stimulators, and intravenous treatments.
Lifting and tightening devices on the menu include Ultherapy Prime (focused ultrasound), Thermage FLX, Pair Titanium, Tune Face, 3DEEP, 10Therma, InMode and Shurink. Injectable treatments include skin boosters such as Rejuran Healer, hyaluronic-acid 'hydro lifting' injections, Laetigen collagen injections and Juvelook Volume, a collagen stimulator combining poly-lactic acid and hyaluronic acid. The English site states that the clinic uses more than 40 devices.
The interior of the current building was designed by the studio AVEC and completed in September 2023. It covers 1,389 m² and includes lounge-style waiting areas and private rooms. International patients can use the English-language website, an online consultation form and a WhatsApp line. The clinic is open Monday to Friday from 10:00 to 19:00, with a break from 13:00 to 14:00, and on Saturdays from 10:00 to 15:00. It is closed on Sundays and public holidays.
