Dr. Seon Song
O.M.D., Orange Clover Holistic Center
Dr. Song is one of the pioneers and brains behind Tread Embedding Acupuncture (TEA) which was originally designed to treat pain. Through his dedicated hard work and commitment, he became successful in creating a method that is used in cosmetic and plastic surgery in addition to treating pain. Dr. Song is modest and humble enough not to take all the credit but also attributes part of the success to the first TEA manufacturing company and a partner hospital. Currently TEA is considered the most sought after non-invasive facial plastic surgery procedure in Asia.
