Visit the clinic at 589 Gangnam-daero, near Sinsa Station Exit 4 in Seoul.

Eye surgery planning considers eyelid skin, crease structure, opening function, dryness, symmetry and previous surgery—not a reference photograph alone.
Website guidance is available in English, Japanese, Chinese, Arabic, Spanish and German.
Eye plastic surgery planning should begin with an individual clinical assessment. Suitability, the recommended approach, anaesthesia, aftercare and travel guidance can only be confirmed by a qualified clinician after evaluation.
SOONPLUS's official double eyelid page describes consultation-led crease design and explains that the method should reflect the individual. Reference photographs can communicate your preferences, but they do not guarantee the same result.
Ask how an incisional or non-incisional approach would suit your eyelid tissue, existing crease and any previous surgery. Discuss the proposed incision, scarring, alternatives and limitations rather than selecting a method by name alone. An in-person assessment is needed to confirm suitability.
A preferred eyelid crease and a drooping upper lid are different concerns. Ask whether your concern involves crease design, excess skin or eyelid position, and whether ptosis assessment is appropriate. Do not assume that double eyelid surgery alone addresses every concern.
For under-eye bags or a request to reshape an eye corner, ask which procedure, if any, is appropriate and why. Share dry-eye symptoms, medicines and previous eye treatment before discussing a combined plan. Confirm current procedure availability directly with the clinic.
Request a written quote in KRW for the recommended procedure and ask whether anaesthesia, medicines and follow-up are included. Clarify any additional charges. An online inquiry can support planning, but a final treatment plan and price require clinical assessment; a listed example is not a guaranteed personal quote.
Eyelid surgery risks include bruising, swelling, dry eyes, bleeding, infection, scarring and changes in eyelid function or vision. Ask for written aftercare, review dates and an urgent contact plan. Seek urgent medical assessment for severe new eye pain or vision changes. Recovery and return-travel timing vary; follow your treating clinician's advice rather than a fixed travel timetable.
Possible risks can include swelling, bruising, dry-eye or irritation symptoms, bleeding, infection, scarring, asymmetry, changes in eyelid function, anaesthesia-related risks or additional treatment. No specific aesthetic or recovery outcome can be guaranteed.
Follow procedure-specific guidance on medicines, wound care, activity, contact lenses, eye makeup and follow-up. Seek prompt assessment for severe pain, sudden visual changes or other concerning symptoms.
It can support early planning, but it cannot replace an in-person examination. Suitability, the final plan and informed consent require direct assessment.
Double eyelid surgery may focus on crease formation, while ptosis correction concerns eyelid-opening function. Whether either is appropriate depends on individual examination.
Reference images can communicate preferences but are not a guarantee. Anatomy, tissue quality, asymmetry, healing and procedure limitations affect what may be appropriate.
Follow written instructions and contact the clinic promptly about unexpected or worsening symptoms. Seek urgent assessment for severe pain, sudden visual change or another medical emergency.
There is no fixed stay for every patient. Follow-up and travel timing depend on the procedure, health, itinerary and clinician’s assessment.
Treatment suitability, diagnosis and the final care plan are confirmed by the responsible clinician after an individual examination and informed-consent discussion. This page provides general education and does not replace medical advice.
