SEOUL - Treating oneself to a full-course meal and a laser skin treatment at a high-end dermatologist sounds like something out of the life of the super rich.La Peau Claire, a skin clinic located in Seoul’s affluent Cheongdam-dong, provides laser treatment services for cats and dogs.
It utilises a laser which is commonly used by dermatologists to treat human skin issues, including acne. “Traditionally, dogs and cats would be prescribed with ointments and pills to treat allergic reactions on their skin or for other skin issues,” La Peau Claire CEO and veterinarian Lee Tae-hyun told The Korea Herald.
Pet Dining Mamma in Songpa-gu, eastern Seoul, offers three-course omakase-style meals for furry guests at a starting price of 23,000 won. “We prepare about 40 meals for dogs per week and the number has significantly increased since we opened the restaurant in 2021. People’s perception of providing luxury goods and foods for their pets has rapidly changed in Korea.”High1 Resort, located in Gangwon province, also serves an omakase for dogs. The five-course meal costs 35,000 won and includes luxury ingredients like abalone.
According to the state-affiliated Korea Rural Economic Institute, the size of the country’s pet-related industry is currently valued at 4.6 trillion won, but is projected to grow to 6 trillion won by 2027.
