The Short Answer

How do I choose the right eye treatment?

Start with the concern, not the procedure name. Upper eyelid concerns — no crease, an uneven crease, heavy or droopy lids, or a tired look from weak eye-opening muscles — are usually treated with double eyelid surgery, upper blepharoplasty or ptosis correction. Eye shape concerns, such as a covered inner corner or a short, upturned outer corner, are treated with eye corner surgery.

Under-eye concerns divide into two groups. Eye bags, hollows and tear troughs caused by fat, laxity or volume loss usually need surgery such as lower blepharoplasty or fat repositioning. Fine lines, thin skin, mild puffiness and dark circles can often be improved with non-surgical treatments such as boosters, fillers or lasers.

Many patients have more than one concern, so a combined plan is common. Send clear photos for a free online opinion, or read about double eyelid surgery and lower blepharoplasty to begin.

FAQ

Eye surgery in Seoul: frequently asked questions

Which eye surgery is right for me?
It depends on your eyelid anatomy and your main concern. A missing or uneven crease usually points to double eyelid surgery, heavy skin to upper blepharoplasty, droopy lids to ptosis correction and eye bags to lower blepharoplasty. A surgeon confirms the right option after examining you in person.
What is the difference between incisional and non-incisional double eyelid surgery?
Non-incisional surgery uses sutures through tiny openings and suits thin lids with little excess skin, with a shorter recovery. Incisional surgery allows skin and fat to be adjusted and usually gives a more durable crease for thicker lids. See incisional and non-incisional surgery for details.
Can I combine several eye procedures?
Yes. Double eyelid surgery is often combined with ptosis correction or inner corner surgery, and upper and lower eyelid surgery can sometimes be done together. Your surgeon will advise whether combining is suitable for you.
How long should I stay in Seoul after eye surgery?
Most patients stay about 7–10 days. This allows stitch removal, usually around day 5–7, and a check-up before flying. Non-surgical under-eye treatments usually need only 1–3 days.
Is eye surgery painful?
Surgery is performed under local anaesthesia, often with sedation, so most patients feel little during the procedure. Mild discomfort, tightness and swelling afterwards are usually manageable with prescribed medication and cold compresses.
Can under-eye bags be treated without surgery?
Mild puffiness, thin skin and dark circles can often be improved with fillers, boosters or energy treatments. Larger fat bags usually need surgery for a lasting result. A consultation helps identify the cause.
How much does eye surgery cost in Gangnam?
The cost depends on the procedure, technique and whether treatments are combined. Pricing is quoted after consultation. Send photos via WhatsApp for an estimate before you travel.
Do you have English-speaking staff?
Yes. Our team supports international patients in English, and Chinese and Japanese support is also available. You can contact us on WhatsApp to plan your visit.
