Dr. Choi Dong-il, Director of Ruiyan Dermatology Clinic and Board-Certified Plastic Surgeon.

Dr. Choi Jae Hyung (최재형 원장), the Chief Executive Director of Peche Clinic, is the core leader of Korea's Peche Dermatology Clinic. If your primary goals are photoelectric anti-aging treatments, lifting procedures using advanced devices, or powerful laser therapy for pigmentation removal, Dr. Choi is the most highly regarded "ace specialist" at the clinic. Below is a detailed introduction to Dr. Choi Jae Hyung's distinctive clinical expertise: 👨‍⚕️ Core Clinical Expertise and Positioning: As the Chief Executive Director of Peche Dermatology Clinic, Dr. Choi is widely recognized by patients as the "top-tier master of photoelectric technology" (the Photoelectric King). Specialized Procedures: He has mastered all leading high-end photoelectric anti-aging devices currently available on the market, including Ultherapy (US version), Thermage (US version), Titanium Lift, Onda microwave sculpting, and powerful pigment-targeting systems such as Reepot and Pico lasers. Technical Advantage (Precision Energy Control): Dr. Choi's greatest strength lies in his exceptional command over laser parameters and energy dosage. He fully understands the delicate balance of energy-based devices—where even a slight excess can cause burns or indentations, while too little yields no results. His technique is meticulous and steady, enabling precise targeting of the subcutaneous fat and SMAS fascia layers while providing maximum protection to the sensitive stratum corneum. This makes him an ideal choice for patients with low tolerance thresholds who still require robust anti-aging treatment.

Representative Director and Chief Technical Officer of Peishu Dermatology. Areas of expertise include advanced hyaluronic acid bone contouring, precise botulinum toxin facial contour stabilization, multidisciplinary treatment of complex and challenging cases, and mesotherapy-based water light management for severely compromised skin (such as severe sensitive skin and rosacea). Surgical philosophy: advocates the principle of "one face for each individual while preserving personal uniqueness," placing utmost emphasis on naturalness and healthy harmony across the entire face. Demonstrates the highest level of technical stability within the clinic.

Dr. Shin Dong Min (신동민 원장) Core Advantages: Possesses an exceptionally keen insight into Eastern minimally invasive aesthetics. Has been invited multiple times as a special technical guidance guest on established Korean beauty and fashion beauty programs. Areas of Expertise: Photonic and energy-based anti-aging treatments (including high-efficiency lifting devices such as Thermage and ONDA ultrasound), refined skin barrier reconstruction, and comprehensive acne/acne-prone skin treatment. Surgical Style: Renowned for "delicate technique, precision, and excellent pain control." When operating photonic devices, he can accurately perceive skin feedback, reducing intraoperative anxiety for international patients seeking aesthetic procedures.

Dr. Han Seung-hwan, a graduate of Chonbuk National University Medical School, currently serves as the Director of ELEV Clinic. He previously held director positions at Doctor Petit's Myeongdong, Hongdae, Kyung Hee, and Gangnam branches. Dr. Han has served as the director of Dermatology Clinics in Gangnam, Myeongdong, Hongdae, and Kyung Hee—locations that collectively cover all core customer segments: local affluent women, young students, and international tourists. Consequently, he has accumulated extensive clinical experience with Asian facial cases in energy-based anti-aging and lifting procedures (such as Ultherapy and Thermage) as well as minimally invasive injectables (including hyaluronic acid, collagen, and contouring agents), demonstrating highly steady and mature techniques.
