Who is Dr. Seung-woon Choi?
Dr. Seung-woon Choi is the Representative Director of V Moment Clinic, an aesthetic medical practice in Seoul's Apgujeong area. Before moving into aesthetic medicine, he held a university-hospital appointment in Emergency Medicine at Sanggye Paik Hospital. His subsequent career includes leadership positions at several Korean aesthetic clinics, followed by his current role at V Moment. [1]
V Moment's Korean name is 브이모먼트의원. For patients researching the clinic, Dr. Choi is an important part of its identity: he is both its Representative Director and the physician who signs the clinic's public message about care, communication and patient comfort. [1]
Education and Clinical Career
Dr. Choi's published profile identifies the Department of Chemical Engineering at Seoul National University and a former faculty role in the Department of Emergency Medicine at Sanggye Paik Hospital. His medical career later moved into aesthetic practice, including Lamiche, MayPure and Gangnam Dayview Clinic. [1]

His Treatment Philosophy: Safe, Comfortable and Meticulous
At V Moment, Dr. Choi describes medical care as more than simply performing a procedure. His signed message emphasizes understanding what patients are concerned about and helping them feel reassured during the treatment process. [1]
The clinic expresses that approach through three ideas: safe, comfortable and meticulous (안전하게, 편안하게, 섬세하게). For patients, that means discussing the intended treatment, the products or devices involved, the experience during care and what to expect afterward. [1]
V Moment also offers sleep-sedation arrangements for selected procedures. Sedation is a separate medical decision, with eligibility, monitoring, recovery and fees to be confirmed individually. [1]
Regenerative Aesthetics and Stem-Cell-Related Programs
Stem-cell-related services are a substantial part of V Moment's treatment menu. Alongside its Korean website's descriptions of stem-cell skin care and PRP, the clinic's MTK catalog lists standalone MIRACELL-branded injection programs and several combination packages. [1] [6]
The listed combinations include stem-cell-related services with NAD+ and facial or scalp care, as well as packages incorporating Thermage, Eye Thermage, Ultherapy and Re2O. This range places regenerative-focused aesthetics alongside lifting and skin-quality care within the clinic led by Dr. Choi. The package descriptions do not identify their stem-cell component as MIRACELL. [6]
These are clinic service listings. They do not establish that Dr. Choi personally performs every procedure or has conducted clinical research on these programs. His published Emergency Medicine papers address separate subjects.
Understanding the treatment: NAD+ is not a stem-cell treatment. MIRACELL, PRP and services marketed as stem-cell treatments should not be assumed to contain the same preparation. Some MTK catalog entries specify intravenous administration. Before proceeding, ask the clinic to explain the cell source, preparation method, actual contents, administration route, evidence for the intended use, applicable regulatory status and risks. A volume stated in cc does not establish viable stem-cell count, concentration or effectiveness.
For the listed options, package contents and questions to ask, read the V Moment MIRACELL program guide. For the wider clinic menu, visit the V Moment Clinic Seoul guide or the MTK clinic profile. A consultation is needed to determine whether a proposed service is appropriate for you.
Non-Surgical Lifting and Personalized Skin Care
V Moment combines its regenerative-focused menu with more established categories of aesthetic treatment. These include Thermage FLX, Ultherapy Prime, Titanium and other lifting technologies, alongside skin boosters such as Rejuran, Juvelook and Skinvive. [1]
These options have different purposes and treatment requirements. A personalized consultation should clarify the specific concern, whether an energy-based procedure, injectable product or combined plan is being considered, and the exact treatment specifications. Patients who wish to see Dr. Choi personally should confirm his availability and role before booking.
Published Medical Research and Public Commentary
Dr. Choi's earlier hospital-medicine background has a visible academic record. Two peer-reviewed papers published under the name Seungwoon Choi, with a Sanggye Paik Hospital Emergency Medicine affiliation, list him as first author. [2] [3]
2016 — Neurological outcomes after cardiac arrest
A study published in Emergency Medicine Journal examined laboratory biomarkers used to assess neurological outcomes after cardiac arrest in patients receiving therapeutic hypothermia. Seungwoon Choi is listed as the first author. [2]
2014 — A rare emergency vascular case
A first-author case report in The American Journal of Emergency Medicine described acute abdominal pain associated with spontaneous rupture of the right gastric artery. [3]
His public medical commentary also extends beyond journals. In May 2018, Health Chosun published guidance on emergency conditions and the importance of timely care with input from Professor Choi of Sanggye Paik Hospital's Emergency Medicine department. [4]
These publications and reports document his earlier work in Emergency Medicine. They should not be interpreted as clinical trials of the lifting devices or stem-cell-related services currently available at V Moment.
Dr. Choi's Public Industry Activities
Dr. Choi has also appeared in professional skincare-industry coverage. In August 2025, OxygenCeuticals published an OxyFacial feature identifying him as the lead doctor of V Moment Clinic. He commented on the brand's integrated treatment protocol and reported patient satisfaction. [5]
This is a public industry appearance, not a clinical study. Its claims about treatment effectiveness and satisfaction are brand-published statements, not independently measured outcomes.
