Key Findings First
Our analysis of scar dermatology clinics in the Jeonju area shows that the amount of real review data currently available on online platforms is limited. On Naver Place and KakaoMap, scar-related dermatology reviews were confirmed to be zero, and information for only three medical institutions could be collected. Of the three, the first clinic had five real patient reviews, giving it the highest number of firsthand comments among the available data.
Transparent Methodology
This analysis was conducted as of May 22, 2026, using the following methods:
- Naver Place crawling: 0 scar dermatology reviews collected
- KakaoMap review analysis: 0 reviews confirmed
- HIRA specialist information lookup
- Attempted Google review data collection
- Secured and analyzed 5 real patient reviews
We disclose transparently that some service restrictions occurred during the data collection process, so only limited information could be obtained.
Clinic No. 1 - Specializing in Acne and Skin Concerns
Among the data we secured, this clinic has the largest number of real patient reviews, with 5 in total. It provides care for a range of skin conditions, including acne extraction, skin treatments, and boils, and it has been confirmed that a specialist physician personally provides treatment.
"They explained very well why my skin had flared up and how treatment would proceed, and they were very kind! The nurses were also friendly, and during skin care treatment they told me what was being done at each step, which I liked!" (바보물, April 23, 2026)
"I came in because I had a boil on my body and have been going regularly every two weeks. It is improving. It was Monday so there were quite a lot of patients, but now I’ve figured out the system — if you put yourself in the queue on the iPad at 12:30 when lunch starts and come back at 2:00, it works perfectly~" (커피러버어, April 27, 2026)
Location and transportation: Specific address information is currently limited and could not be verified.
Hours: Based on patient reviews, the lunch break starts at 12:30, and afternoon consultations resume at 2:00 PM.
Things to check before visiting: The clinic operates a waiting check-in system via iPad, and because Mondays can be busy, waiting times may be longer. According to reviews, skin care appointments take about 1 hour, and extraction costs 65,000 KRW.
Practical tip: One patient recommends checking in at 12:30, right before lunch, and returning at 2:00 PM to minimize waiting time.
Scar-related information: The clinic provides acne scar-related extraction and skin regeneration care, and it has been confirmed that a specialist physician explains the treatment plan directly.
Clinic No. 2 - Limited Information Available
Due to current service restrictions, it has been difficult to collect detailed information. Basic data such as the address, hours, and specialist information could not be secured, and no real patient reviews were collected.
Things to check before visiting: Please call the clinic directly before visiting to confirm whether scar treatment is available, along with consultation hours and reservation methods.
Clinic No. 3 - Korean Medicine Clinic Specializing in Pain Treatment
After analyzing the 5 collected reviews, this clinic appears to be a Korean medicine clinic mainly focused on pain treatment. It specializes in musculoskeletal conditions such as headaches, shoulder pain, lower back pain, and neck pain, and mainly performs acupuncture treatment.
"I visited because the back of my neck hurt after suddenly braking while riding in a car, and I was satisfied with the acupuncture and treatment I received! The director and the nurses were all kind, so I recommend it." (LK6016, May 18, 2026)
"Thanks to the attentive care, my lower back felt better after just one week! The nurses were also very kind, so I’d like to come again!" (삥555, May 19, 2026)
Things to check before visiting: This is a Korean medicine clinic specialized in pain treatment rather than scar treatment, so it may not be suitable for those seeking dermatology care for scars.

Frequently Asked Questions
How many scar treatment sessions are usually needed?
It varies depending on the type, depth, and extent of the scar, but generally 5 to 10 sessions are needed. In the case of acne scars, treatment is often performed at 2- to 3-week intervals, though the number of sessions may vary by individual.
How much does scar treatment usually cost?
Depending on the treatment method and the size of the scar area, the cost can range from 50,000 KRW to 500,000 KRW per session. Laser treatment is typically around 100,000 to 300,000 KRW, while microneedling is generally around 50,000 to 150,000 KRW. Please check the exact cost after consultation.
Are there any restrictions on daily life after scar treatment?
It depends on the procedure, but most people can return to daily life the same day. However, it is best to avoid direct sunlight and stop using irritating cosmetics for about a week.
Can any scar be completely removed?
Rather than complete removal, a realistic goal is to improve the scar so it is less noticeable. In general, a 50% to 80% improvement can be expected, and results vary depending on the type of scar and individual differences.
Can scar treatment be done even if acne is still active?
If active acne is present, it is better to treat the acne first and then proceed with scar treatment. Procedures performed while inflammation is present may worsen scarring, so please consult a doctor to determine the treatment order.
Are any scar treatments covered by insurance?
Scar treatment for cosmetic purposes is not covered by insurance. However, scars caused by trauma or surgery that lead to functional problems may be partially covered, so please contact the clinic in advance.
