Reviews & how to check us — TONE's Clinic Gangnam

Reviews

Check usproperly.

A page of testimonials we wrote ourselves would tell you nothing. Read them where we cannot edit them.

Reviews of TONE's Clinic Gangnam live on public platforms. Below is where to find them, how our before-and-after photographs are produced, and what we will not do to earn a recommendation.

Our own photographs

Most before-and-afters are lighting

Four rules make a comparison honest. If a clinic's photographs fail any of them, you are looking at a photograph rather than a result.

See all 38 comparisons →
01Identical lightA softer key light alone removes years. Ours is fixed to the same position and power for every shot.
02Same head positionTilting the chin down lifts a jawline for free. Head position is marked and repeated.
03Nothing changed between framesSame clothing, same makeup, same hair — so the difference you see is not the styling.
04Nothing taken on the dayFiller is photographed once swelling has settled, a device once it has had time to work. An "after" shot the same afternoon is swelling, not a result.

Every photograph is published with written patient consent and is not retouched or reshaped. Eyes are masked at the patient's request. Individual results vary, and none of them is promised to anyone else.

What we will not do

Four things that would make our reviews worth less

Paying for them

No discount, credit or free session is offered in exchange for writing a review. A review you were paid for is an advertisement.

Filtering them

We do not ask only satisfied patients to post, and we do not request removal of a review because it is critical.

Retouching photographs

No smoothing, reshaping or relighting between before and after. If a result needed editing to be visible, it was not a result.

Promising an outcome

No treatment here is guaranteed to reproduce another person's result. Anatomy, age and healing differ, and so does what is achievable.

Set your expectations

Three things worth knowing in advance

Better raised here than discovered on the day. If any of these is a problem for you, we would rather you found out before you travelled.

You may be talked out of what you came for

If the change you want needs surgery, or old product removed first, Dr. Yang will say so rather than proceed. Some patients leave without treatment.

The first result is deliberately conservative

Under-treating is reversible; over-treating takes months to undo. The review appointment exists to add if it is needed, and it is the one people most often skip.

Seen by the head doctor himself

Every consultation and treatment is Dr. Yang's own, so appointments are finite. Send your dates early if you are travelling.

Judge the plan,not the website.

Send three photos. You get back the points Dr. Yang would treat, the approach and the time it needs — at no cost and with nothing booked. Fees are confirmed when you visit.
