Guide to Visiting Korea
When visiting Jeju Island in November, don’t just focus on sightseeing! Take the opportunity to get cosmetic treatments and save half the cost—cover flights, accommodation, and Dermatology appointments all in one go.

Here’s the answer: Spending National Day in Jeju Island is one of the most hassle-free and cost-effective choices this year. Jeju offers visa-free entry for Chinese passport holders, with direct flights taking only 1.5 to 3 hours. The crisp autumn weather in October makes it the perfect season to visit Jeju. Although flight and accommodation prices are higher during peak seasons, booking in advance by a month can still keep costs under control. What’s more—many people don’t know that Jeju’s Dermatology clinics offer prices comparable to those in Seoul. You can enjoy the same treatments in a much less crowded environment, and while you’re there, consider getting an HIFU treatment, fillers, or Botox. When you return home, your colleagues will surely ask how you got so radiant. This article covers everything you need to know—flights, accommodation, itineraries, budgeting, plus tips on how to book treatments at Jeju’s Dermatology clinics.

Three real-life stories: How they combined travel with cosmetic procedures

Case 1: Xiaoya (28 years old, from Shanghai, doing medical aesthetics abroad for the first time)
Xiaoya too
k 5 days off and flew straight to Jeju on Friday night. Upon arrival, she headed to Dongmun Market to try black pork. The next day, she went to Sunrise Peak in Seongsan to watch the sunrise and had coffee in Ayam-eup. On the last afternoon, she made an appointment at 4everjeju to undergo an Ulthrea treatment (costing 300 won). What surprised her the most was that “the service was provided in fluent Chinese, and the price was exactly the same as what’s listed on their official website—so there was no risk of being overcharged as a tourist.” Already on the return flight, she could feel her jawline becoming tighter.

Case 2: A Zhe (Beijing, taking his mom on a trip)
A Zhe arranged
bike rentals and photo spots in Odo Island for his mom, but she kept complaining about her dry skin. He used BeautsGO to book a Rejuran hydration treatment at NowMedi’s branch on Jeju Island, where the specialist in charge performed the procedure personally. After the treatment, his mom said her skin felt like it had been thoroughly hydrated. After doing some calculations, A Zhe realized that the same treatment would cost 20% more in Beijing; by going to Jeju, he was able to get his mom’s skincare needs taken care of as part of his trip expenses.

Case 3: Cindy (Guangzhou, Best Friends Trip)
Cindy and her best friend
opted for a combination of photography and light medical aesthetics: they took countless stunning photos along Rainbow Coast Road and at Yue Ting Li Jelly Sea. On their last day, they visited BT Skin in Jeju Island to get Botox micro-drops to address drooping corners of their mouth. She emphasized that during peak tourist seasons, appointments at these clinics are in high demand, so it’s essential to book in advance—trying to show up without an appointment likely means waiting in line for a long time.

Common FAQs

Q1: Do I need a visa to go to Jeju Island in November?
A：Chinese passport holders can enter Jeju Island without a visa. All you need is a valid passport, round-trip flight tickets, and proof of accommodation to clear customs—no prior visa application is required. It’s still advisable to check the latest entry regulations before departure.
Q2: How much are tickets to Guilin during the National Day holiday? What’s the best way to buy them at a good price?
A: November is peak season, with round-trip flight tickets costing around 1,800 to 2,800 RMB. If you want to save money, book your tickets 30 to 45 days in advance to avoid the peak periods of departing on October 1st and returning on October 7th, as this can save you hundreds of yuan.
Q3: How many days is the best duration to spend on Jeju Island?
A: For your first visit, I recommend 4 to 5 days. 3 days is too rushed, while 6 days or more might make you feel overwhelmed; 5 days with 4 nights allows you to fit in visits to Seongsan Ilchulbong, Eomwol-ri, Udo Island, and Saekji-gochi, as well as your medical beauty appointment, without burning yourself out.
Q4: How can I schedule medical aesthetics treatments and travel plans without them overlapping?
A：Schedule the non-invasive treatments—such as hyaluronic acid injections, Botox, and Potenza—for the last afternoon or just before departure, so you can still go shopping and catch your flight after the procedure. Treatments like HIFU and radiofrequency may cause slight redness, so it’s recommended to take half a day off for recovery. Be sure to book in advance, as slots often fill up during peak seasons.
Q5: Are the cosmetic surgery prices in Jeju the same as those in Seoul?
A: Most clinics on Jeju offer “the same price as in Korea,” with rates that match those on their official websites—there’s no extra charge just because you’re a foreigner. For some services, due to the different positioning of these clinics, it might even be easier to book appointments and more convenient to use compared to popular shops in Seoul. The final price is subject to the clinic’s quote on the day.
Q6: What’s the easiest way to make an appointment at a Dermatology clinic in Jeju?
A: I recommend using BeautsGO for online bookings. You can include notes in Chinese about the treatment you’d like to consult about, and the system will help confirm availability and arrange translations, so you don’t have to make calls in Korean. Below each clinic in this article, there’s a “Click to Book Online” button that lets you book right away.

Friendly reminder: The prices listed above are for reference only. Actual fees may vary depending on the clinic, physician, and current promotions, so please refer to the quote given on-site. Results from cosmetic procedures vary from person to person. Be sure to choose a facility with legitimate licenses and qualified physicians, and seek thorough pre-operative consultation.
