Frequently Asked Questions

How are treatment costs at Hyundai Aesthetic Surgery Clinic in Gangnam communicated?

Treatment costs at Hyundai Aesthetic Surgery Clinic in Gangnam vary depending on the area, extent, options, and anesthesia method. An accurate estimate is provided through a free one-on-one consultation. We prioritize a personalized quote tailored to each patient's diagnostic results, rather than comparison quotes or promotional prices.

How long does recovery take?

Generally, swelling and bruising subside within 1–2 weeks, and the natural final result settles in after 2–3 months. Non-incisional and minimal-incision methods have a shorter downtime, while incisional and revision surgery can take somewhat longer to recover. We provide the precise recovery schedule for each procedure during your consultation.

How can I get a consultation at Hyundai Aesthetic Surgery Clinic in Gangnam?

You can visit our main clinic on Dosan-daero in Gangnam for an in-person consultation, or have a remote consultation by phone, KakaoTalk, or online form. Through a free one-on-one consultation, we provide comprehensive guidance covering diagnosis, treatment options, an estimate, and the expected recovery schedule. In accordance with Article 56 of Korea's Medical Service Act, reviews and before-and-after materials are provided only on the basis of prior consent.

Can I see before-and-after photos in advance?

In accordance with the advertising provisions of Article 56 of Korea's Medical Service Act, before-and-after cases may be viewed for medical purposes only by patients who have given prior consent and attended an in-person consultation. Publicly available materials are limited to de-identified cases for which consent has been completed. Detailed cases are explained directly by our medical staff during your consultation.

How are post-surgery side effects and aftercare handled?

Every surgery carries some possibility of side effects. Hyundai Aesthetic Surgery Clinic in Gangnam monitors recovery-phase symptoms such as swelling, bruising, tightness, and a foreign-body sensation through a post-surgery regular check-up and care system (the Mihak Care System). We operate a 24-hour emergency contact line and an aftercare program.

Which is better for double eyelid surgery in Gangnam — non-incisional or incisional?

It depends on your eyelid thickness, skin laxity, and amount of fat. If the skin is thin with little fat, a non-incisional method (buried suture or natural-adhesion) is preferred; if there is skin sagging or excess fat, an incisional or partial-incision method is recommended. Our Gangnam clinic's Ten-Minute Natural-Adhesion double eyelid is a non-incisional-based option with fast recovery.

Can ptosis be corrected at the same time?

Ptosis correction (eye-shape correction) can be performed together with double eyelid surgery. When a drooping upper eyelid covers the pupil, eye-shape correction can create a brighter, more defined impression. We explain simultaneous options such as our Gangnam Big Eye canthoplasty during your consultation.

Is revision eye surgery also possible?

Issues such as asymmetry, multiple lines, or faded lines after a previous double eyelid surgery or epicanthoplasty can be corrected with revision surgery. At our Gangnam Hyundai Aesthetic clinic, revision eye surgery begins by assessing your existing scarring and adhesion, then recommends the most suitable approach among non-incisional, incisional, or combined correction.
