How to Reserve

Preview

After entering, besides showing your reservation record, you also need to fill out a personal information form. Don't worry, there are not only Korean versions but also Chinese and English versions available on-site, so you don't have to worry about not understanding. If you have any questions, there are staff who can speak Chinese to assist you. Next, you will wait for your number to be called and have a one-on-one consultation with the director. Just tell the director which part of your body you want to have surgery on and what effect you want to achieve, and they will recommend a suitable surgery for you. Chinese and English-speaking staff will also assist with communication, so don't hesitate to ask if you have any questions. Check out detailed information on each treatment below!

Shurink Universe

Have you heard of Shurink Universe? It's an extremely popular lifting treatment in Korea and Lienjang offers the treatment at great prices using the newest equipment! The Shurink Universe Treatment should only be performed in a professional hospital for safety, and Lienjang is the preferred choice. They will consult with you on the areas you want to target, such as the forehead, eye corners, chin curves, crow's feet, chin, arms, abdomen, thighs, and calves. Of course, the specific details should be discussed with Lienjang for accuracy.

The process is very simple and the pain is also very mild, so many people choose not to use anesthesia. However, if your pain tolerance is lower, you can still ask the staff to apply numbing cream before the treatment starts, which takes about 15 minutes to absorb.

After entering the operating room, the nurse in charge will help wipe off the anesthesia on your face. The professional doctor (accompanied by a translator) will explain the surgical site and procedure again. It will definitely not be administered by an assistant, which is really reassuring and trustworthy.

In less than half an hour, the surgery was over. After it was completed, there was hardly any swelling or redness on the editor's face. Also, because of the use of anesthesia cream, the doctor confirmed that it was okay to apply makeup and go out for a meal directly after the surgery.

The doctor said that after the face lift, the effects would be visible in about two to three weeks. However, some customers left reviews that their faces felt tighter after about a week. Moreover, the price is very reasonable, so it is a highly recommended treatment.

Botox

Botox is used to suppress muscle contractions and, with almost no side effects, eliminate wrinkles and adjust muscle tone. It's a simple way to bring changes to your face shape. "Meditoxin," used by Lienjang, is the most commonly used botox in Korea, developed by Korea, and also has a market share of about 40%.

The treatment takes about 30 to 40 minutes. After the procedure, try not to rub or touch the injection site as feeling something different in the area is normal. The effects of the botox can last up to six months (depending on each one's situation) and normal sensation should return after about 2 to 3 hours. The effects will begin to appear around 2 to 3 weeks after the injection. Botox is generally injected in a minimum of a 50-unit dose for one area. The dosage can be adjusted on-site after consultation with the physician (and with additional charges if necessary).

Facial Contouring Injection

One of the highly popular treatments at Lienjang is the "contour injection," which can help dissolve facial fat, promote peripheral vascular and lymphatic circulation, and achieve the injection method of excreting fat and bodily waste. For those who want to deal with excess flesh or wish to have a V-shaped chin line in a short time, contour injection can be performed to address sagging facial skin and loss of elasticity, which takes around 10 to 15 minutes and is straightforward. It usually does not require anesthesia, and patients can put on makeup and wash their faces on the day of the surgery. The results can be seen approximately 3 to 4 days later.

Our Visit

Before visiting Lienjang Gangnam branch, I looked into several beauty treatments and decided to try the Shurink Universe treatment. Shurink Universe is a beauty technique that lifts sagging skin and stimulates collagen production to create a more defined facial appearance! Among them, the new technology called Shurink Universe Ultra offers a shorter treatment time and is painless with minimal bruising compared to previous Shurink products. Lienang Gangnam branch is conveniently located right next to Exit 8 of Sinnonhyeon Station. As I entered, I easily noticed both foreigners and Koreans who came to receive beauty treatments.

Currently, Lienjang provides consultations with staff members who can communicate in various languages, so you can receive convenient assistance even if you don't know Korean. The consultation center for foreign visitors is located on the right side of the entrance, and you can follow the guide arrows on the wall to find it.

Lienjang Gangnam branch is equipped with a self-tax refund machine, so you can use it here to receive tax refunds.

After making a reservation through Creatrip, you need to go to the 13th floor front desk to check-in and provide your information. It is important to have your foreign passport and identification card with you when you visit.

After checking in, please proceed to the designated seating area and wait for the staff to call your name. When I visited, there were not only female customers but also many male customers. In Korea, it seems that men also receive treatments. Lienjang is such a renowned place in the beauty industry in Korea that it attracts customers of all genders.

After about 10 minutes, a staff member called my name, and I went to the consultation room. I was concerned about reducing facial muscles.The consultant was very passionate and addressed all of my questions and concerns in detail. I decided to proceed with the pre-planned Shurink Universe Ultra treatment for a V-line.

After the consultation, the expert applied a anesthesia cream to my face. After applying the anesthesia cream, I waited for about 20 minutes before the cream was washed off from my face.

In the cleansing zone, there were cleansing foam, towels, lotion, and other supplies available. There is no need to bring separate cleansing products!

Continuing on, I entered the treatment room. The staff assured me that they would provide additional guidance if needed, so there was no need to worry. The doctor used the Shurink Universe Ultra machine to gently move and massage the areas such as cheeks, corners of the mouth, and jawline. It was not as painful as I had expected, although occasionally there was a slight tingling. This process took about 10 to 15 minutes, which is very simple and quick. 

After the procedure, they applied a soothing cream to prevent skin swelling or redness. The lifting effects may vary for each person, but they typically become most noticeable within 1 to 4 weeks. Immediate results may not be apparent right after the treatment.

I noticed a change in my face within just one week. My skin became visibly firmer and my jawline felt slightly more slender. If you decide to undergo the Shurink Universe Ultra treatment, you can expect to have a different skin compared to before. The most noticeable effects usually appear around one month after the treatment and can last for about three months. By receiving treatments regularly, you can maintain a firm and youthful skin condition. This beauty treatment is highly popular in Korea due to its safety and affordability compared to many other methods. If you want more detailed information, I recommend searching for Lienjang Shurink Universe Ultra.

The above review is based on a personal experience of receiving a treatment at Lienang. In addition to Lienjang Gangnam branch, you can also enjoy discounted services at their Hongdae and Myeongdong branches through Creatrip. Make sure to consider Lienjang's beauty services during your trip to Korea!
