I only speak Spanish or Russian. Can I book an interpreter for a skin clinic consultation in Seoul, and how far in advance do I need to ask?

Why we ask for a week

Interpreters for languages other than English, Chinese and Japanese are arranged for your visit specifically, so we need time to match an interpreter to your date and time. Asking at least a week ahead gives us a good chance of confirming one. If you contact us with less than a week to go, tell us anyway — we will check whether it is still possible, but we cannot promise it.

What to tell us when you book

Send us your preferred date and time, the language you need, the number of people and, if you already know, the treatment you are interested in. You can write to us by WhatsApp, LINE, KakaoTalk, WeChat or email, or use the real-time online booking on our website and then message us about the interpreter. We will confirm the appointment, whether an interpreter is arranged and whether a booking fee applies.

Our website is also available in Spanish and Russian, so you can read about treatments and visiting the clinic in your own language before you write to us.

During and after your visit

Consultations and treatments are carried out by the doctors themselves, with the interpreter helping you and the doctor understand each other. Your skin analysis report and treatment record can be issued in a foreign language. After you go home, you can continue to message us with questions on the same channel you used to book.

How to book

1. At least a week before your visit, message us with your date, time and the language you need.
2. We confirm the appointment, the interpreter and whether a booking fee applies.
3. On the day, arrive a few minutes early at 318 Gangnam-daero (B1 & 2F).
4. Have your consultation with the doctor and the interpreter, then decide on treatment.

Frequently asked questions

How far in advance should I book a Spanish or Russian interpreter?

At least one week (7 days) before your visit.

Is there a fee for the interpreter?

A separate booking fee may apply for languages other than English, Chinese and Japanese. We tell you when you book.

What if my trip is in less than a week?

Contact us anyway. We will check whether an interpreter is still available, but it depends on the interpreter’s schedule.

Can I also be seen in English?

Yes. All our doctors consult in English, and English-speaking coordinators are on site every day the clinic is open.

Do you have Arabic interpretation as well?

Yes. Arabic is available on the same basis — book at least a week before your visit.
