AB Plastic Surgery and Dermatology Selected by the Ministry of Justice as an Outstanding Medical Tourism Attraction Institution
AB Plastic Surgery and Dermatology, also known as AB Clinic, has been officially designated by the Ministry of Justice as an Outstanding Medical Tourism Attraction Institution for 2025.
This designation represents official national recognition of AB Clinic’s standing as a leading medical institution contributing to the attraction of international patients through world class K medical services.
This achievement is particularly significant given that the Ministry of Justice expanded the number of designated institutions from 39 in 2024 to 90 this year, and AB Clinic was selected among them.
It serves as an important indicator that, in the process of attracting international patients, the clinic has been externally recognized for meeting all key standards of safety, reliability, and convenience, while also demonstrating outstanding operational capability and a high standard of medical care.
AB Clinic was selected as an Outstanding Attraction Institution after meeting strict national review criteria, including compliance related to illegal stay prevention, invitation and treatment records, and visa compliance.
Through this designation, the institution has been officially recognized as capable of providing safer and higher quality medical services to international patients.
In addition, with this designation, international patients may benefit from more efficient medical tourism procedures, including simplified visa application processes and the availability of electronic visas that can be issued within approximately three days.
Medical tourism in Korea has become a key industry contributing to the national economy, recording an all time high of 1.17 million international patients.
AB Clinic has actively contributed not only to treatment itself, but also to the attraction of premium medical tourism that extends from medical care to accommodation and tourism, supporting the expansion of K medical exports and the broader goal of revitalizing the national economy.
Going forward, based on its specialized strengths in plastic surgery and dermatology, AB Clinic will continue to provide high quality K medical services to international patients.
Through advanced medical equipment and procedures, precise and safe clinical environments, and continuous efforts to strengthen its capabilities, the clinic remains committed to helping patients feel assured and confident throughout their course of care.
Building on this designation, AB Clinic will continue striving to provide medical services aligned with global standards and to become an even more trusted medical institution for both domestic and international patients.
Thank you.
