The competence, careful attitude and attention to every little detail is what I really liked
I would like to thank my doctor for his careful attention to my difficult situation. The competence, careful attitude and attention to every little detail is what I really liked.

The experience for me, in general, was excellent, I would go back to the Dr
I was very pleased with the attention I received from the first day I arrived at the clinic. The interpreter was able to communicate perfectly to the surgeon what I wanted to be done and what my expectations were. I loved the hospitality of the Medical Team, all very attentive, very concerned about whether I was feeling well or not, reminding me of my check-ups, cleaning, suture removal, giving me all the information for the post-operative period, giving me light and oxygen therapy sessions to improve and accelerate the results of my recovery. The clinic is located in a very central place in Gangnam, it is easy to get there. It is very close to the flat that the clinic provides during your stay until the first check-up. The clinic is spacious, well-lit, very clean, with flexible opening hours for post-operative care. The real estate is very comfortable, they have coffee and tea so that you can help yourself. And, they don't keep you waiting. Everything works as scheduled. And, additionally, they provided me with help on how to get around the city, how to get to the tourist attractions, to the shops where they sell skin care products, etc. The experience for me, in general, was excellent, I would go back to the Dr. and I recommend him 100% to those people who are looking for a good clinic where they can have surgery with the full confidence that everything will go very well.

Now two months after surgery, I am quite happy with the shape of my new eyelids
The medical team members are so friendly and helpful. Although I speak zero Korean, I can sense their passion and empathy, which dramatically reduced my anxiety to go through the surgery. They are very supportive from the right beginning to the end when I left Seoul. And big thanks to the assistance from Yena, who provides detailed before and after care instructions rather than just working as an interpreter. Now two months after surgery, I am quite happy with the shape of my new eyelids. They look much younger and alert. Read more less

He did a good job on my surgery and I recommend him for anyone seeking plastic surgery in Korea
The beginning of surgery was tough, doing the upper and lower Blepharplasty with shots and some pain reliever in my IV and I needed something a little stronger but I understand how careful the Dr was because I was under full anesthesia the minute the eye surgeries were done. The results are looking amazing and the swelling decreased daily. I’m not sure what oral pain meds I was on after surgery but it was perfect for me because I don’t like to be on very many pain meds and when the meds ended it was the time I usually stop taking any pain meds. I’m pleased with the results I’m seeing so far and it’s only 3 weeks post-op. Lilith and the the girls were amazing, Lilith helped be to the hotel nearby after my 2 day stay at the surgical hospital and she helped me with exchanging my money to pay my hotel bill because my Credit Union was blocking my use of my credit card. I recommend anyone from outside of Korea to make sure they have an account with a larger bank before getting surgery in another country. I can’t say how much I needed and got reassurance from the staff with removal of my stitches and just how conscientious the staff was that I would be as comfortable as possible. Dr Kim Yong Woo always asked if I had any questions and spend the time before and after surgery to make sure all my questions were answered. He did a good job on my surgery and I recommend him for anyone seeking plastic surgery in Korea. Read more less

Plastic Surgery in South Korea: Market Size, Prices, and Top Procedures

South Korea is widely known as the plastic surgery capital of the world. With a thriving market and highly skilled surgeons, the country attracts both local and international patients seeking various cosmetic procedures. Here's a closer look at the market size, prices, and top plastic surgery procedures in South Korea:

Market Size

South Korea's plastic surgery industry is booming, with an estimated market size of around $10.7 billion as of 2020. It is expected to grow at a steady rate in the coming years, driven by the increasing demand for cosmetic procedures, advancements in surgical techniques, and the growing medical tourism sector. South Korea has the highest per capita rate of plastic surgery procedures in the world, with approximately 13.5 surgeries per 1,000 people.

Prices

The cost of plastic surgery in South Korea is generally lower than in Western countries like the United States. However, prices can vary depending on the complexity of the procedure, the surgeon's expertise, and the clinic's location. On average, patients can expect to pay the following amounts for popular procedures:

  1. Rhinoplasty (nose job): $3,000 - $6,000
  2. Double eyelid surgery: $1,000 - $3,000
  3. Liposuction: $2,500 - $5,000
  4. Breast augmentation: $5,000 - $8,000
  5. Facelift: $6,000 - $12,000

Top Plastic Surgery Procedures

South Korea is known for its expertise in various plastic surgery procedures. Here are some of the top procedures along with a short description and price range:

  1. Rhinoplasty (nose job): Rhinoplasty is a surgical procedure that reshapes the nose to improve its appearance or function. It can involve altering the size, shape, or angle of the nose to achieve a more balanced and harmonious facial appearance. Prices range from $3,000 to $6,000.
  2. Double eyelid surgery (blepharoplasty): This procedure is popular in East Asia, as it creates a crease in the upper eyelid, giving the eyes a more open and youthful appearance. The cost of double eyelid surgery in South Korea ranges from $1,000 to $3,000.
  3. Liposuction: Liposuction is a procedure that removes excess fat from specific areas of the body, such as the abdomen, thighs, and buttocks. It helps contour the body and achieve a more toned appearance. Prices for liposuction in South Korea range from $2,500 to $5,000.
  4. Breast augmentation: This procedure involves the use of breast implants or fat transfer to increase the size and improve the shape of the breasts. Breast augmentation is popular among women who desire a more voluptuous figure or want to restore breast volume after pregnancy or weight loss. Prices range from $5,000 to $8,000.
  5. Facelift: A facelift is a surgical procedure that tightens and lifts the facial skin and underlying tissues to create a more youthful appearance. It can help reduce sagging, deep folds, and wrinkles on the face and neck. Facelift prices in South Korea range from $6,000 to $12,000.

In conclusion, South Korea's plastic surgery market is substantial and offers a range of affordable and high-quality procedures. The country's expertise in various plastic surgery techniques and the growing medical tourism sector make it an attractive destination for those seeking cosmetic enhancements.

First, I wanted to say that Jimena here on Bookimed have been the best!! She always check up with me if I was feeling okay, and gave me a lot of support! I really appreciate that❤️ so Himena is the best!! The doctor Young min at Very Good plastic surgery is great! He has a a lot of expertise and experience, he’s the head m chef of the clinic as well. But, Tanya at the clinic she didn’t give me any support at all she was suppose to be there for me and give me support, I did a huge surgery , jaw reduction and a chin reduction, so the doctor cut in my bones. So when I woke up I was in sooo my agony and pain I’ve never felt anything like it in my entire life, it felt like I had a screwdriver penetrating my temples slow back and forth, it was terrible, instead of being there for me saying everything went good etc they just started to scream “stop crying” wouldn’t even bother to ask why I was crying or if I was having any pain at all The nurses told me “ you paid for this cosmetic procedure you put yourself in this situation “ when I ask for pain killers. She also told me “I’ve never seen anyone like you, in this much pain, I won’t give you more” like I was lying? I’ve never had death anxiety before but I thought I was going to die. The sent me home 24h after surgery I was super swollen and scared, I felt betrayed of everyone. I was alone in this country. When I showed my inspiration photos to Tanya the translator/assistant she laughed. Even after surgery she didn’t give me any support, I felt in the way, like I was a problem for them. But it was some good nurses as well x. Love Matilda

Samsung Medical Center is one of the best clinics in the world (its achievements include the Minister of Health and Welfare Trophy, winning in the Korean Customer Satisfaction and Service Quality Indexes). The Samsung Department of Plastic Surgery performs over 3,700 plastic, reconstruction operations and cosmetic surgeries per year. The interdisciplinary team of the Clinic receives around 19,000 patients from all over the world searching medical advice per year.

Top doctors of Samsung Kun Chul Yoon MD, Bang Sa-Ik MD, Mun Goo Hyun MD and Lim So Young MD represent the scientific and innovative approach in Korean reconstructive plastics.

It’s important to remember that some of the replacement procedures could significantly change an appearance, so the patient should be psycologically prepared for the incoming changes. In some cases presurgical preparation comes with visiting the psychologist.

Breast reconstruction or facial surgeries will need a week or so of patient’s hospital stay, abdomen liposuction requires about two weeks, while patients after eyelid or lip surgery will be sent home in one-two days.

In the questionnaire, there was a question regarding my health concerns which I responded to. I feel that those concerns were not visited with any doctors. I liked the speed of the procedures and professionalism of the program staff. But it felt like I was on a factory line, too robot-like. Wish I had known that I could keep my phone with me. I saw others using phones while waiting to get in to exam rooms but I did not now we were allowed to have phone on us.

I have breast cancer and I went through chemotherapy in Moscow. Six sessions have passed. It was very difficult to tolerate these procedures. A doctor in Kazakhstan said that this is enough, it is necessary to switch to tableted chemistry. And Moscow offered to continue doing chemotherapy. Opinions are divided. It was necessary to find a third party. I accidentally found your site on the Internet. Ekaterina Koliko wrote very quickly. The benevolence of Katyusha was immediately arranged towards her. She asked me what I would like to go to. I said that I want to go to the Severance clinic in Korea. Katyusha approved my choice. I sent all the necessary documents and Katyusha quickly redirected everything to the clinic. They began to wait for the invitation. For some reason (and for what I already knew in the clinic), there was no invitation. I am very grateful to Katyusha that she was in touch all the time, supported me, gave me hope. We arrived in Seoul in the morning, we were met by a transfer, brought to the hotel. After lunch, they were already in the clinic, I began to take tests. Constantly with me was one of the translators. Girls translators are great fellows, these are Lida, Olesya, Sofia, Tatyana, Alena. Any question could be addressed, they always prompted. They are professionals. Always with a smile, polite, with enormous patience, and most importantly, they understand that they work with a special audience, with people who did not come to rest. Someone to find out the diagnosis, and someone to do the operation. Thank you so much to the girls. The clinic was impressive. Doctors are professionals. The equipment is super. I got the opinion of a third party, it coincided with the opinion of a doctor from Kazakhstan. I was prescribed a prescription, I bought medicines at the pharmacy and started drinking on arrival home. I also want to write about Darina, who was engaged in transfer (the transfer to the clinic was very convenient and met and carried out), the selection of the hotel was also always in touch, and if I had any questions, she quickly answered them. I want to say that I am very happy for getting to know BOOKIMED, professionals really work there, and most importantly, they are not indifferent people. I am grateful to the Almighty and all who were near me. And the words of the doctor gave me inspiration and inspired great hope, for the sake of these words it was worth a long way to go. Once again, many thanks to all.

Mom could not make an accurate diagnosis, and we decided to be examined in Korea. I left a request in bookimed. And what surprised immediately rang. I told you how, all the tests that were done, and I was advised by the Ehwa clinic. We immediately agreed and signed up with a mammologist. Everything is clean in the clinic, all doctors, all medical staff are qualified, and very friendly. The translator was with my mother all the time, and he explained everything very clearly. They quickly took the tests, and immediately established a diagnosis, they said it was necessary to do the operation. The operation lasted 5 hours (general preparation, etc.) after the operations in the clinic 10 days. They did everything neatly, everything had almost healed. I am satisfied with the clinic and the medical coordinators of Bookimed. Thank you all very much!
