Real Korean skincare at Laurel Studio, Hongdae, led by a cosmetic scientist with 6 years' experience.

Relax on a warm Ondol floor as a Hanbok therapist tailors a facial to your skin with gentle Korean ingredients, safe for sensitive skin. You'll get a card in your language showing what we use, and we email a 1-month routine (PDF) afterwards.

Programs:

  • Signature (50 min): an essential facial for you.
  • Premium (60 min): the full experience - consultation checklist, tea, and facial - plus premium products and a 1-month plan.
  • Body & Skin (90 min): rest on a CERAGEM heated medical-device bed (warmth + air-pressure circulation) with decollete care and a full facial. Not a full-body massage.

Review for: Premium K-Beauty Facial | Personalized Skincare Program (60min)

This was a very relaxing experience. Jina was so nice and friendly--and funny too! I booked this for my two sisters and myself. She really took her time to do all of our facials. It was so soothing and comfortable. She even showed us how to take care of our skin going forward and how to write our names in Korean! Her English was very good even though she said it wasn't very good, very easy to understand. Highly recommend!

This was 150% worth it!! The salon is so calm and inviting, and I loved getting my facial on the floor beds with gentle music and insense so much I think I fell asleep. Sue was such a sweetheart and as a professional always made sure I was comfortable. My face looks about 5 years younger and not only did they do an amazing job but they also give you a personalised evaluation of your skin and how to care for it back home. Thank you Sue and all the other lovely ladies working at Laurel ❤️❤️❤️❤️

A very lovely treatment. The therapist is very kind and speaks excellent English. My boyfriend was so relaxed that he fell asleep. After the treatment, our skin immediately looked great and radiant. We even each received a long letter with tips for our skincare routine that we could take home with us. We will definitely take everything into account and will definitely come back.

Amazing experience today!!! It's easy to find and very close to the subway. I got the personalized skincare and it was so nice. First she gives you a questionnairy to see wat you would like and what your skin problems are. So it's easy for her to use the right products. It's so relaxing and you can have a great talk. She is so friendly and bubbly! She gives you cards in English so that you know what for steps she's going to do. Very relaxin music also. After the treatment she gives you personalized morning and evening routine and products that you can use for acne and she tell you where to buy it! So I would go again if I come back to Korea! Love from Elizabeth Thank u for the great experience and the cute photo!!!

Wonderful and relaxing facial experience. Got the premium package where we received a customized facial in accordance to our skin type and condition. Starts off with a small questionnaire and some tea. After completion, we received an email detailing our skin condition and products recommended for our skin type. I would definitely recommend this place.

Amazing experience! It was extremely relaxing and cosy, and my skin is so bright and shining! Jina looked after me so well, and was really friendly. I got useful information about my skin and what to look out for, including the key recommendations for shopping in the local beauty shops. I really recommend it!

This was my second visit, and once again it was such a comfortable and pleasant experience. My skin felt calmer, more hydrated, and looked healthier overall. The care was very gentle and attentive throughout. I’m really happy with the results and looking forward to my next session. Jina was absolutely amazing — so kind, attentive, and professional. She really treats the skin with such care, which makes the whole experience feel very personal and comforting. It was such a warm, relaxing experience again.

Absolutely amazing skincare service! From the moment I walked in, I felt welcomed and well taken care of. The treatment was incredibly relaxing, and my skin has never felt so clean, smooth, and glowing. The specialist was knowledgeable, gentle, and took the time to explain each step and recommend products that truly suit my skin. I noticed a real difference immediately and even days later. Highly recommend to anyone looking for professional, high-quality skincare services. I will definitely be coming back!
