Body & Wellness in Cheongdam, Seoul

Contouring, hair reduction and intravenous wellness sit on one floor and answer five completely different questions — so the visit begins by asking what your goal actually is, and ends with only the treatment that serves it.

Which body or wellness treatment fits your goal?

The goal you name at consultation decides which of these five mechanisms is even relevant. A broad, soft area is a microwave-energy question; one small outlined pocket is an injection question; unwanted hair is a course of laser sessions aimed at long-term reduction. Intravenous drips are wellness support and not treatment for any medical condition, and the human evidence behind them is still emerging. The scan settles it. Your EVE Muse 3D + AI diagnosis names which of the five applies, and it is allowed to conclude that none of them does and that you are better served by coming back next season.

These five treatments share a floor and a booking window; the mechanisms have nothing in common. Contouring here works at two very different scales: a wide, water-rich area over the abdomen, arms or thighs responds to heat spread evenly through tissue, while a single stubborn pocket that stays put no matter what you do is treated by hand, area by outlined area. Neither substitutes for the other. Both are shape work on one defined place, and we do not recommend either to anyone whose actual goal is the number on a scale.

Hair reduction and intravenous wellness belong to the same conversation for a practical reason: visitors to Seoul book them alongside skin appointments, and both are easy to oversell. So this page states the limits first. Laser sessions are planned as a course toward long-term reduction, and one visit will not finish the job. Drips are offered as wellness support, with the current state of the human evidence attached to the description. If your goal is a heavier trapezius line or calf shape, that belongs to body botulinum toxin in our toxin category, and none of the five treatments below will do it. Named infusion programmes are packaged as set menus in our Dear Vital signature line. Both are discussed at consultation.

All prices are published rates, identical for residents and international visitors. Kilojoule budgets, treated areas, laser settings and session counts are set at diagnosis and approved by you before anything begins.

Goal by Goal

Match your goal to a mechanism

Read the left column first. Once the goal is stated plainly, the treatment beside it is usually the only sensible answer, and sometimes the answer is none of them.

Responses vary by individual body, area, skin tone, hair cycle and general health, and nothing in this table is a promise of a specific result. Larger hair-removal areas, five-session courses, the ten-session NAD+ course and the richer drips — garlic at ₩100,000 (≈ $70) and cocktail or arginine at ₩200,000 (≈ $145) — are all published on the price list page.

Dear, Knowhow

Why plan body or wellness care at Dear

01 — THE FULL ARSENAL

Both contouring routes are on site

Body treatments and drips are the two categories most often sold in bundles, so the units are published instead. ₩650,000 (≈ $465) buys 80 kJ of delivered microwave energy, ₩80,000 (≈ $55) buys one 40 cc outlined area, and a women's underarm laser session is ₩30,000 (≈ $20). Because both contouring routes and every drip on the menu are in the building, which one you are offered is settled by the assessment, and where a goal is better served by a different category — or by no treatment at all this year — that is what you will be told.

02 — DIAGNOSIS FIRST

What the scan adds to a body plan

Three-dimensional imaging with five light sources and AI analysis records skin thickness, tone and surface condition before any setting is chosen. For laser hair removal that reading directs the wavelength and the cooling; for contouring it distinguishes a broad, soft area from a single pocket; for a drip it simply sits alongside the medical questions a doctor asks anyway.

03 — DIRECTOR-PERFORMED

Doctor-led, line by line

The kilojoule budget, the drawn treatment area, the injection spacing and the laser setting are all judgement calls, and they are made by the director who read your assessment. No infusion line is hung before a doctor has reviewed your history, and follow-up is included in the course and is not billed later as an extra.

The Method

How a body or wellness plan gets decided

Four steps, in this order — and in this category step one is the one people skip.

01

Name the goal

Contour, hair and general wellness run on different physics and different timelines, and a goal stated loosely produces a plan that satisfies nobody. Where the request is really about body weight, we say plainly that this is not the category for it.

02

Match goal to mechanism

Scale decides the contouring answer: broad and soft points to microwave energy, one drawn pocket points to injection. Skin tone and hair type decide the laser wavelength. For a drip, the question moves to your medical history and to what the current evidence can and cannot support.

03

Design the course

Now the numbers are set: the kilojoule budget and areas, the outlined injection zones per session, the wavelength, fluence and interval matched to your hair cycle, or a single infusion against a ten-session course. You see the total before anything is opened.

04

Treat, review, stop

Your director performs the session and reviews at the interval the mechanism deserves — hair after a full growth cycle, contour after several weeks, wellness by how you actually feel. Courses are shortened or ended when the review says the work is done.

If your diagnosis shows that nothing in this category would meaningfully serve your goal, we do not recommend a treatment and no session is booked that day.

FAQ

Body & wellness in Seoul, answered

Which body or wellness treatment is right for me?
It depends entirely on the goal you arrive with. A broad, soft area over the abdomen, arms or thighs is a microwave-energy question and points to Onda body contouring; one small pocket that has stayed put for years points to a lipolysis injection; unwanted hair is a laser course; feeling flat or run down after a long flight is a wellness conversation and not a contouring one. Because all five sit in the same clinic, the EVE Muse 3D + AI assessment can decide without anything needing to be sold.
How much do body and wellness treatments cost in Seoul?
Published rates here start at ₩30,000 (≈ $20) for a single women's underarm laser session and ₩50,000 (≈ $35) for a base vitamin drip, with a lipolysis injection at ₩80,000 (≈ $55) per 40 cc area, NAD+ from ₩300,000 (≈ $215) a session, and Onda body contouring at ₩650,000 (≈ $465) for an 80 kJ session. Five-session laser courses and the ten-session NAD+ course are published too, and the same list applies to residents and visitors alike.
Can I combine two of these in one visit?
Frequently, yes, because they act on different tissue and different systems. A laser hair-removal session and a nutrient drip fit comfortably in one appointment; contouring on one area and a drip likewise. What we avoid is stacking two contouring treatments on the same area at the same visit, because neither result could then be read at review. The combination is planned at diagnosis; there is no package menu to assemble it from.
How much downtime should I expect?
Little, in this category. Microwave body contouring and intravenous sessions let you return to your plans the same day. Laser hair removal leaves warmth and mild redness around the follicles for a short period, and sun exposure is best avoided on the treated area. A lipolysis injection is the one with a visible settling phase: local swelling, tenderness or bruising over the following days is expected and is part of how it works.
Do IV drips actually do anything?
Intravenous vitamin, glutathione and NAD+ infusions are offered as wellness support, not as treatment for any medical condition, and the human clinical evidence — particularly for the intravenous route — is still emerging rather than settled. Published work supports that NAD+ precursors raise NAD+ levels and are generally well tolerated; it does not support claims of reversing ageing or curing illness, and we will not make them for you.
I have never had laser hair removal. How many sessions will I need?
More than one, and the number is set at your assessment and not quoted in advance on a web page. Hair grows in cycles and only part of it is treatable at any given moment, which is why sessions are spaced and priced both singly and as five-session courses. The realistic outcome to plan for is long-term reduction in density and thickness across a course; one visit clears nothing permanently.
Do men book these treatments?
Regularly. Laser hair removal for the beard area, neck, chest and back is among the most common male bookings, and men's areas are published as their own price tier because the sessions differ in area and settings. Body contouring and wellness drips are booked by men as often as women. A heavy trapezius line, the other frequent male request, belongs to body botulinum toxin and is booked from the toxin category.
What do 80 kJ and a 40 cc area actually buy?
They are the units the two contouring treatments are sold in, and they do not compare with each other. An Onda body session is quoted as a quantity of delivered microwave energy — ₩650,000 (≈ $465) for 80 kJ — which your director spreads across the zone agreed beforehand. A lipolysis injection is quoted per 40 cc area at ₩80,000 (≈ $55), so a second area is a second charge. Laser hair removal is priced per area per session, from ₩30,000 (≈ $20) for a women's underarm, with five-session courses listed separately.
Can a drip or a laser session run on the same day as the assessment?
Usually. The assessment and consultation take the first part of the visit, and a vitamin drip, a NAD+ infusion or a laser hair-removal session can follow straight afterwards once your director confirms suitability and, for any infusion, has reviewed your history. The two contouring treatments more often wait, because the area has to be drawn and agreed first and a lipolysis injection has a settling phase you will want to plan around. Dear Clinic is open 365 days a year, so a Sunday or public holiday slot is an ordinary booking.
Are visitors charged the same, and how do I book from abroad?
One published list applies to everyone, quoted in Korean won with a US dollar figure for reference, and your plan is priced and approved by you before anything is prepared. Send the form below with your travel dates and the goal you want addressed — contour, hair or general wellness — and we reply in English within one business day, holding the slot without a deposit. Every area and course sits on the price list page, and the 365-day opening page explains weekend and holiday scheduling.

Scientific Evidence

Science behind body & wellness care — peer-reviewed references

Three of the treatments on this page rest on published clinical literature of very different maturity, and presenting them as equivalent would misrepresent all three. Microwave body contouring and long-term laser hair reduction have accumulated clinical studies; the intravenous wellness literature is younger, and what exists concerns supplementation and tolerability rather than any cure.
