Korean dermatology, made in Mayfair.
Dr Jinah Yoo Dermatology is a consultant-led Korean medical and procedural dermatology clinic at 45 Albemarle Street, bringing treatments widely used in Seoul to London, under UK medical governance.
Our story
Two skincare cultures, one clinic.
Seoul and London treat skin differently. Korean dermatology moves fast: new devices, regenerative protocols and skinboosters reach patients years before they reach Europe. British medicine moves carefully: consultant-led diagnosis, clinical governance, honest outcomes. This clinic was founded on the belief that patients shouldn't have to choose between the two.
Every programme at 45 Albemarle Street pairs treatments widely used in Korea, often introduced to the UK here first, with the rigour of a CQC-registered, consultant-led practice. Skin is diagnosed before it is treated, imaged before it is judged, and reviewed against evidence rather than promises.
How we practise
Four principles, every patient.
Every course begins with your skin examined and imaged by a consultant dermatologist. No device is chosen, or sold, before the diagnosis is made.
Your consultation is with Dr Yoo herself, not a practitioner working from a menu. The physician who diagnoses your skin is the one responsible for treating it.
Treatments proven in Seoul, delivered within a CQC-registered practice: new enough to matter, governed enough to trust.
Realistic results are agreed in writing before you commit. If a treatment isn't right for you, or medicine would serve you better, you'll be told at diagnosis.
