What Questions Should I Ask at a Skin Clinic Consultation?

At a skin clinic consultation, ask what is causing your concern, which treatments suit it and why, what results and downtime are realistic, how many sessions you will need, which product or device brand is used, what the risks are, and what the total price includes. At Re:berry Hongdae, pricing is confirmed in writing before treatment.

Questions about your diagnosis

  • What do you think is causing my concern?
  • Is this something one treatment can address, or does it need a combination?
  • Could this be something else that looks similar, such as melasma versus sun spots?

Re:berry's approach is diagnosis before packages, so a clear explanation of the cause is the foundation of any plan.

Questions about treatment options

  • Why are you recommending this treatment for me?
  • What are the alternatives, and how do they compare?
  • Which device or product brand will be used, and can I see it?
  • For devices, how many shots or lines, and why that number? See what a shot count is.

Questions about results and timing

  • What change is realistic for my skin, and when will I see it?
  • How many sessions will I need, and how far apart?
  • How long do results typically last?
  • What downtime should I expect, and can I fly or attend events afterward?

Questions about safety

  • What are the common and rare side effects?
  • Is there anything in my history or medications that changes the plan?
  • Who performs the treatment?
  • What should I do, and who do I contact, if something feels wrong afterward?

Questions about cost

  • What is the total price, and what does it include?
  • Are numbing, follow-ups or aftercare products extra?
  • Can I have the quote in writing?

At Re:berry Hongdae, pricing depends on area, shot count and plan, and is confirmed in writing at consultation.

Questions about aftercare and follow-up

  • What should I avoid in the first 24 hours and the first week?
  • Which skincare can I keep using, and what should I pause?
  • Is a follow-up visit included or recommended?
  • Can I have a written record of products and settings used?

Related questions

Is it okay to ask to see the product or device?

Yes. Asking to see the product box, syringe label or device is a reasonable request and a common way patients confirm what is being used. Reputable clinics are generally comfortable showing you. You can also ask for the product name and amount to be recorded in your treatment notes.

Should I decide on treatment at the first consultation?

You do not have to. Many people are treated the same day, but it is entirely reasonable to take the written plan away and think it over. If you are visiting Seoul for a short time, you can ask the doctor which steps are most important to prioritize now.

What should I bring to my consultation?

Bring a list of medications and supplements, any known allergies, details of past treatments and dates, and photos if your concern changes over time. Arriving with clean skin helps the doctor assess you. A written list of questions ensures you do not forget anything important.
