In the eyes of Korean practitioners and tourists, the most intuitive impression of China beauty salons is that they are large in scale and have a strong human touch, and are in sharp contrast to dermatology in small communities in South Korea. Large-scale medical and beauty institutions in China often cost thousands of square meters, with supporting resting areas and tea and meals. Most mainstream skin management stores in South Korea only provide two to three hundred square meters. They only provide simple coffee and do not prepare intimate benefits such as dinners and birthday gifts. The heart-warming service of Chinese hospitality has made many Koreans feel new.
There are obvious differences in industry divisions: South Korea strictly distinguishes between medical dermatology and general skin management rooms, and items such as injections and lasers are limited to doctors; it is customary in China to collectively refer to skin care, light medical beauty, and plastic surgery as beauty salons, which is easy for South Koreans to confuse business boundaries in the early days.
The technical level has changed greatly in recent years. In the past, Koreans felt that local medical beauty was stronger. Now many Korean customers have made a special trip to China to do regenerative injection, ultrasonic cannon and other projects. Domestic compliant filling materials and instruments are complete, and bone shaping methods are diverse., outstanding cost performance. In terms of aesthetics, China and South Korea have their own focuses. South Korea prefers traceless natural fine-tuning, while domestic beauty seekers prefer three-dimensional and clear bone contours.
South Koreans also objectively mentioned shortcomings: some stores have too strong sales efforts, and the market is mixed; however, formal chain institutions have strict qualification reviews, doctors have rich practical experience, and their overall development speed and innovation have been very recognized by Korean beauty practitioners.
