Founder & operator
Dr. Grace Lim
Hyewon Lim, MD
- Board-Certified Family Medicine Physician
- Aesthetic Medicine Physician
- Licensed in the United States & South Korea
Dr. Lim began her aesthetic medicine experience in Korea and has trained and practiced across the Korean and U.S. healthcare systems.
Working alongside aesthetic clinics and physicians in Korea highlighted a gap: useful clinical perspectives were often difficult for U.S. providers to access across language, geography and different practice settings.
Next in Aesthetics was created to bring those perspectives into a thoughtful clinical conversation.
