VandS Clinic expands toward 75 branches across Korea and Japan

VandS Clinic says it is on track to reach 75 branches by the end of 2026, adding new locations in South Korea and Japan as it scales its medical aesthetics network. The expansion pairs multilingual patient services and AI-style skin analysis with premium non-surgical treatments aimed at domestic and international visitors.

Why it matters: - VandS Clinic is positioning itself as a larger player in Korea’s fast-growing beauty and medical aesthetics market. - The expansion matters for international patients because the network is adding locations, translation support and diagnostic tools designed to reduce friction in cross-border care. - The clinic’s growth also reflects the continued pull of South Korea as a destination for medical tourism and non-invasive cosmetic procedures.

What happened: - VandS Clinic said it plans to reach 75 branches nationwide and globally, including Japan, by the end of 2026. - The network began in 2020 with one flagship location and now operates 63 branches in South Korea and 4 in Japan. - Current Japan locations include Shinjuku, Yokohama, Shibuya and Nagoya. - Additional domestic openings are scheduled for Mokdong, Ansan, Gangneung, Cheonan, Geoje Island, Dangjin, Guri and two locations on Jeju Island.

The details: - VandS Clinic says its network is supported by 150 medical doctors and more than 3,500 healthcare and service professionals. - The clinic’s signature approach is “V-line and Skin,” centered on safe, non-invasive procedures. - Seoul locations include Hongdae, Myeongdong, Gangnam, Yongsan, Seongsu, Jamsil, Mapo, Yeongdeungpo and Yeouido. - Gangnam has 5 branches, including Gangnam Central, Apgujeong, COEX and Sinsa. - Busan has 3 branches: Seomyeon, Haeundae and Centum. - Jeju Island has 1 operating branch, with another location set to open soon. - International patients come from the United States, China, Japan, Thailand and Western countries, according to the company. - VandS Clinic offers free translation services at flagship locations in English, Japanese, Chinese, Mongolian, Thai, Russian, Vietnamese, Indonesian and Taiwanese. - Branches without on-site translators use real-time phone translation support at no charge. - The clinic provides free skin analysis using the Mark-VU diagnostic machine. - Mark-VU uses Normal Light, Polarized Light, Ultraviolet Light and Woods Light to assess pigmentation, melasma, redness, pore size, sebum production, wrinkles and future aging patterns. - The clinic says the analysis helps customize treatment plans to each patient’s skin profile. - The treatment portfolio includes Botox, dermal fillers, Pico Toning, CO2 lasers, Potenza, Rejuran Healer, Collaster, Juvelook, RE2O, Ultherapy, Thermage FLX, Titanium, Xerf, Onda, medical skincare and laser hair removal. - VandS Clinic says it uses standardized equipment across locations, including InMode, Shurink Universe and Density.

Between the lines: - The growth strategy combines dense urban placement with services aimed at removing two common barriers for foreign patients: language and uncertainty about results. - Free translation and complimentary skin analysis are designed to make the clinic feel more accessible and more personalized than a standard walk-in aesthetic practice. - The focus on Japan expansion suggests VandS Clinic is using nearby outbound medical travel routes to support broader regional growth.

What's next: - VandS Clinic expects its scheduled openings through summer 2026 to help it reach the 75-branch target. - The company is likely to keep marketing around international patient services, premium devices and non-invasive treatments as it expands. - Further growth in Japan and across major South Korean metro areas appears central to the network’s next phase.

The bottom line: - VandS Clinic is scaling fast, and it is pairing branch expansion with multilingual services and diagnostic tech to strengthen its position in Korea’s medical aesthetics market.
