Leading treatments
Double eyelid surgery
The clinic offers three kinds: natural adhesion ("ten-minute"), incisional and revision double eyelid surgery. It says natural adhesion uses local anesthesia, with sedation if you prefer, and buried sutures that usually need no removal. It says incisional and revision surgery use local anesthesia, often with IV sedation, take about 1 hour (incisional) or 1–2 hours (revision), and have stitches removed around day 5–7. It describes visible swelling as typically 3–7 days after natural adhesion, 2–3 weeks after incisional surgery and 2–4 weeks after revision surgery, and a stay in Korea of about 4–6 days, 7 days and 7–10 days respectively. The clinic names revision eyelid surgery as a particular focus and says revision usually waits at least 6 months after the first operation. Its fee notice prices double eyelid surgery only together with ptosis correction: from ₩3,500,000 for natural adhesion and from ₩5,000,000 for incisional surgery.
Ptosis correction
Ptosis correction is eye-opening surgery for a drooping upper eyelid. The clinic says it uses local anesthesia, often with IV sedation, takes typically 1–1.5 hours, has stitches removed around day 5–7 and typically shows visible swelling for 2–4 weeks, with a stay in Korea of about 7–10 days. It is often combined with double eyelid surgery, and the fee notice prices it only in that combination (see Double eyelid surgery).
Lower blepharoplasty
Lower blepharoplasty is surgery on the lower eyelid; the clinic's version includes septum reinforcement, and it also offers under-eye fat repositioning. The clinic says it uses local anesthesia with IV sedation, or as advised, takes typically 1–1.5 hours, and that fat repositioning usually goes through the inner lid, so there is no external scar. It says stitches are removed around day 5–7 if a skin incision is used, visible swelling typically lasts 2–3 weeks and a stay in Korea of about 7–10 days is needed. No price is published.
Forehead lift
The clinic offers an endoscopic forehead lift, a forehead and brow lift. It says the procedure uses general anesthesia or deep IV sedation, takes about 1.5–2.5 hours, has staples or stitches removed around day 7–10, and typically shows visible swelling for 1–2 weeks, with a stay in Korea of about 10 days. Its fee notice lists a forehead lift (written "Endotine browlift") from ₩7,000,000; the notice does not say whether this is the endoscopic technique.
Face lift
The clinic offers a facelift, a mini facelift, an endoscopic facelift and a midface lift. It says a facelift uses deep IV sedation and takes about 2.5–3 hours, with stitches removed in stages around day 10–14. For a mini facelift it says local anesthesia with IV sedation is typical, the operation takes about 2–3 hours and stitches come out around day 7–10. It describes social recovery as typically 2–3 weeks and a stay in Korea of about 10–14 days for either. The fee notice lists a mini facelift from ₩8,000,000, a full facelift from ₩15,000,000, a full facelift with neck lift from ₩20,000,000 and a revision full facelift from ₩25,000,000.
Rhinoplasty
The clinic offers non-implant rhinoplasty, implant rhinoplasty and dorsal hump correction. It says non-implant surgery usually uses general anesthesia or deep IV sedation and takes about 2–3 hours, depending on the grafts (septal cartilage, ear cartilage or, in selected cases, rib cartilage). For implant rhinoplasty it says IV sedation or general anesthesia is decided at the consultation and the operation takes about 1–2 hours. It says the splint and stitches are usually removed around day 5–7, social recovery is often 2–3 weeks and a stay in Korea of about 10–14 days is needed. The fee notice lists open rhinoplasty (nasal bridge and tip) from ₩5,000,000 and does not say whether it is with or without an implant.
Fat transfer
The clinic offers PRP micro fat grafting for the face and hand fat grafting with PRP. It says the operation typically uses IV sedation with local anesthesia, takes about 1.5–2.5 hours with the fat usually taken from the abdomen or thighs, and typically shows visible swelling for 1–2 weeks, with a stay in Korea of about 7 days. No price is published for fat transfer. The fee notice does list double-chin and jawline liposuction with muscle tightening (platysmaplasty) from ₩6,650,000.
