Sauna After Skin Treatment in Korea? AYUN Clinic Seoul

No sauna or soju for the days after a treatment. AYUN Clinic in Gangnam, Seoul, says to avoid saunas, alcohol and strenuous exercise for several days afterwards, so K-Clinic recommends doing jjimjilbang, soju dinners and hiking first and booking your treatment late in the trip. AYUN is open until 20:30 on weekdays, so on a 5-day trip you can have treatment on the evening of day 4. November promotion prices (until 30 Nov 2026) are Potenza pore full-face ₩139,000 and ONE DAY pigmentation ₩190,000, plus 10% VAT: ₩152,900 and ₩209,000. How many days to avoid these depends on the treatment, so confirm after your session.
Skip the Sauna and Soju for Days After Treatment
For the days right after a treatment, skip the sauna and skip the alcohol. AYUN Clinic's preparation notes say to avoid saunas, alcohol and strenuous exercise for several days after treatment.
The problem is that jjimjilbang, soju dinners and hiking are exactly what many visitors plan in Seoul. This article is not about which treatment to choose. It is about which day of your trip to schedule the treatment so the two don't clash.

How many days you need to avoid them depends on the treatment, and the preparation notes do not give a fixed number. The doctor explains the aftercare once your treatment is done, so follow that advice on the day.
When to Book: Sauna and Dinners First, Treatment Last
K-Clinic's advice: do the jjimjilbang, group dinners and hiking in the first half of your trip, and book your treatment in the second half.
If you have treatment on day one, you will have to cancel or reschedule every sauna visit and dinner after it. With the treatment later in the trip, everything before it goes ahead as planned.

Take a 5-day Seoul trip as an example: jjimjilbang and dinners on days 1–2, shopping on day 3, treatment on the evening of day 4, and fly home on day 5. AYUN is open until 20:30 on weekdays and until 17:30 on Saturdays, so you can still use the daytime of day 4 as normal.
The preparation notes don't say how long to leave between your treatment and your return flight, so ask the doctor before the treatment.

All treatments at AYUN Clinic are non-surgical, and consultation, examination and treatment are all done on the same day, so you can go straight back to your itinerary. The November promotion prices (until 30 Nov 2026) are all before tax, with 10% VAT added.
