Chief Director Dr. Jeong Heon Lee
Acne treatment in Busan Seomyeon, clear skin, treated at the cause.
Active breakouts, back and body acne, oily skin and the marks acne leaves behind — treated as one plan by dermatologists, not as separate products. Examination first, then a written plan with exact pricing the same day. English, 日本語 and 中文 consults. Medically reviewed by Dr. Jeong Heon Lee, MD.
What patients in Busan ask before booking acne treatment.
I've tried every cleanser and cream — why is my acne still coming back?
Is it hormonal, bacterial or just my skin type? Nobody has actually examined it.
My face is fine but my back and chest keep breaking out. Is that treated differently?
Why can't I see a fixed price for acne treatment online?
I'm only in Busan for a week — is starting treatment even worth it?
All five come up most weeks in Busan. The sections below answer them in order — why acne needs examination before pricing, what a treatment plan actually contains, and what a short visit to Busan can realistically achieve.
Six steps at our Busan clinic, from breakout to plan.
01
Skin examination
The doctor examines your skin under magnification at our Busan clinic — lesion type, depth, distribution and scarring risk. Acne is not one disease, and this step decides everything that follows.
02
Cause assessment
History, skincare habits, hormonal signals and previous treatments are reviewed. The goal is to find why breakouts persist, not to sell a device.
03
Written plan and exact pricing
You receive a written plan the same day — which treatments, how many sessions, and the exact price of each line. Nothing starts before you have seen the numbers.
04
In-clinic treatment
Depending on your plan: extraction and peels, injections for inflamed lesions, laser or light-based treatment, and medical-grade care — performed or supervised by the doctor.
05
Home regimen
Prescription and cosmeceutical guidance matched to your skin, so the in-clinic work is not undone at home. We keep it short and realistic.
06
Review and adjust
Acne treatment is iterative. Progress is photographed under consistent lighting and the plan adjusted — including by message after you fly home from Busan.
How We Treat
Four tools, one plan built around your skin.
Most acne needs a combination, sequenced correctly — which is exactly why a fixed menu price would mislead you.
Medical
Prescription therapy
Topicals and, where indicated, oral medication — the backbone for inflammatory acne. Prescribed only after examination.
In-clinic
Extraction & peels
Professional extraction, salicylic and PHA peels to clear comedones and calm congestion without damaging the barrier.
Injection
Lesion injections
Intralesional treatment settles large inflamed nodules within days — often the fastest visible win for a short Busan visit.
Device
Laser & light
For persistent redness, oil control and early scarring — chosen per skin, not per promotion.
Devices and medications are selected at examination. If a simpler option will do the job, that is what we recommend — restraint is part of the plan.
Transparent Pricing
Why acne pricing starts with an examination.
Two patients asking for "acne treatment" can need entirely different plans — one may need a prescription and two peels, another a laser course. Publishing one number would either overcharge the first or mislead the second. What we promise instead: exact written pricing on the day, the same list Korean patients see.

Three doctors, one standard of care.
Every acne plan at JRYN Busan Seomyeon is written and supervised in person by one of our doctors — led by Dr. Jeong Heon Lee, founder of JRYN Dermatology.
From the Founder
Planned and performed in person by one of our doctors.
Acne rewards patience and punishes shortcuts. My rule at our Busan clinic is cause before device: examine first, calm inflammation early to prevent scarring, and only then refine marks and texture. Most patients need less treatment than they expect — just the right sequence.

Progress, Honestly
What the first six weeks look like.
When
What you will notice
What to do
Week 0
Examination day. Inflamed lesions injected the same day begin settling within 48–72 hours. Extraction leaves brief redness.
Start the home regimen exactly as written. No picking — it is the single biggest cause of scarring.
Week 1–2
Congestion clears first; inflammatory lesions shrink. Skin can look slightly worse mid-way as deeper lesions surface — this is expected, not failure.
Keep the routine short. Message us photos from home if anything concerns you.
Week 3–4
New breakouts become fewer and smaller. Redness from healed lesions starts to fade on its own.
Second in-clinic session if planned. Do not add new products on your own.
Week 6
The trend is what matters: fewer new lesions, faster healing, calmer oil. Scar and mark treatment is planned only once active acne is controlled.
Progress photos are compared under the same lighting. The plan is adjusted, not restarted.
Honest Suitability
Who it suits in Busan — and who should wait.
✓
A good match if
Breakouts that keep returning despite consistent skincare
Back, chest or shoulder acne that over-the-counter products never reach
Oily skin with congestion and enlarged pores
Visitors to Busan who want a correct diagnosis and a plan they can continue at home
Post-acne marks and early scarring you want assessed honestly
⏸
Better to wait if
Currently on isotretinoin without your prescriber's coordination
Pregnant or breastfeeding — several acne medications and devices are deferred
Active skin infection at the treatment area
Expecting one session to erase years of scarring — we will tell you what is realistic first
If your acne would be better served by medication alone, we will say so — a consultation that ends without a device booking is a normal outcome at our Busan clinic.
Quick Answers
How much does acne treatment cost in Busan, and can visitors start it?
How much does acne treatment cost at JRYN in Busan?
It is consultation-priced: the doctor examines your skin first, then you receive a written plan with exact figures the same day. Reference points from our public list: acne scar treatment from ₩400,000, post-acne redness laser from ₩99,000, pico toning for marks from ₩20,000. The consultation itself is the inexpensive part — and there is no obligation to proceed.
Can I start acne treatment during a short trip to Busan?
Yes, meaningfully. One visit covers examination, same-day lesion injections and extraction, a prescription plan, and a written roadmap you continue at home — with photo follow-up by message. What a single week cannot do is complete a scar-revision course, and we will not pretend otherwise.
Everything Else You Might Ask
Acne questions in Busan.
Because acne is a diagnosis-first condition. A fixed menu price assumes every case needs the same thing, which is untrue and leads clinics to oversell packages. At our Busan clinic you get exact written pricing on the day of examination, before anything begins — the same list Korean patients see, with no foreigner markup.
Yes — English, Japanese (日本語) and Chinese (中文). We are a 5-minute walk from Seomyeon Station Exit 2, and we review your progress photos on WhatsApp after you fly home from Busan.
The doctor examines your skin under magnification, maps lesion types and depth, reviews your history and current routine, and writes a plan with exact prices. If same-day treatment makes sense — lesion injections, extraction, a peel — it can usually start immediately.
No, and this is why it persists for many people. Body skin is thicker, follicles are deeper, and friction and sweat play a bigger role. Our back and body acne page explains the body-specific protocol used in Busan.
Honest answer: acne is controlled, not cured. Treatment clears active lesions, reduces how often new ones form, and protects you from scarring — the permanent damage. A maintenance routine keeps results; we design it to be short.
An intralesional injection typically flattens a large inflamed lesion within 48–72 hours. If you are in Busan with a deadline, this is the single most effective same-day option.
Sometimes, briefly. Deeper congestion can surface in weeks one to two as the skin turns over. We warn you when a plan is likely to do this, so a normal phase is not mistaken for failure.
Yes. Adolescent acne is where scarring prevention matters most. A parent or guardian joins the consultation, and plans lean on gentle, evidence-based options first.
Sequenced. Active acne is controlled first; scar revision — fractional laser, subcision, TCA cross from ₩400,000 — is planned once new lesions have stopped forming, otherwise new scars appear behind the treatment.
Often yes — pico toning for marks, redness laser, and skin boosters can slot into the same itinerary. The doctor sequences them so nothing overlaps unsafely.
Extraction and peels: redness for hours to a day. Lesion injections: essentially none. Laser sessions vary and are stated per plan. Most patients in Busan return to their day immediately.
Only when the diagnosis calls for it, with proper counselling and monitoring. It is a powerful and legitimate tool, not a default. Many cases do better with a lighter combination.
Yes — you can fly out of Busan the same day. Nothing in a standard acne visit is affected by cabin pressure. Sauna, pools and heavy gym sessions wait 24 hours after peels or laser.
You send photos under similar lighting by WhatsApp; the doctor reviews the trend and adjusts the plan. Prescriptions are planned so you leave with what your course requires.
Fewer new lesions, faster healing, calmer oil, and injected nodules resolved. Marks fade over months; scars need their own plan. We show progress with consistent photographs, not promises.
Because persistent acne is a medical pattern, not a product gap. Examination finds the driver — comedonal, inflammatory, hormonal-pattern or friction-related — and treats it directly, which is what years of trial-and-error shopping cannot do.
