documented caveat wonjinbeauty.com red-flag · capped
Measured · 85%
M1 · Board-certified specialist (전문의) 3 · 24%
UNVERIFIED Signboard specialist form 원진성형외과의원; chairman 박원진 and one profiled surgeon 박장우 (KSPRS / ISAPS member) are named, but the claimed '40+ specialists' individual board-certification could not be independently verified against KSPRS/KAPS registries. source ↗
M2 · Foreign-patient registration (KHIDI) 2 · 18%
UNVERIFIED No matching entry found in the KHIDI 외국인환자 유치기관 registry; only a circumstantial 2014 MoHW foreign-patient award — registration implied by law but not registry-confirmed. source ↗ · provisional
M3 · Clinic registration (HIRA) 3 · 12%
UNVERIFIED Institution class 의원 (clinic) per the legal name; the specific HIRA record could not be cleanly resolved, as the one surfaced row does not match the clinic's Gangnam-daero address (likely a namesake). source ↗ · provisional
M4 · Operating-room accountability (CCTV) — · 10%
UNVERIFIED OR-CCTV, patient-recording-request, and no-proxy-surgery disclosure not found on the clinic site after protocol search (not found / no disclosure to cite). source ↗ · provisional
M5 · Advertising compliance (심의필) 2 · 8%
UNVERIFIED No 심의필 ad-review number located; superiority framing ('biggest beauty medical group in Asia', 'Korea's first plastic surgery hospital') and documented ₩990,000 promotional event pricing. source ↗
M6 · Price / process transparency 2 · 7%
UNVERIFIED Consult/event-based; price stated as estimated at pre-surgery consultation, documented ₩990,000 promo packages, no itemised public price list and no deposit/refund policy disclosed (aftercare instructions described). source ↗
M7 · International-patient pathway 4 · 6%
UNVERIFIED 8–9 languages with per-language coordinators and messaging channels, standby interpreters, airport pickup and hotel booking, aftercare instructions, and overseas consult clinics (Bangkok 2015, Jakarta 2017). source ↗
Editorial · 15%
E1 · Operator continuity / franchise transparency 2 · 8%
UNVERIFIED editorial — Multi-entity 'Wonjin Beauty Medical Group' (PS clinic, Petit center, Hermedi dermatology, Cellium anti-aging, overseas offices) with a founder/CEO governance split — operating-doctor attribution across the group is opaque. source ↗
E2 · Claim cleanliness & patient protection 1 · 7%
UNVERIFIED editorial — documented reported patient death (2014) after facial-contouring; two doctors booked; proxy-surgery alleged; outcome not independently confirmed. source ↗
Composite held at the C2 ceiling (59) pending the clinic's correction or response to the documented 2014 record; the cap reflects an unresolved, sourced structural risk, not a verdict on care.

What this register does NOT measure We do not rate surgical outcomes, a doctor's skill, complication rates or "who's better". We verify structural facts: the board-certified specialist (전문의) who operates, the clinic's registration (HIRA / KHIDI), what it discloses about the operating room and its advertising, the prices and the international-patient pathway — and where something is unconfirmed, we say so.
