About the clinic

Returning Plastic Surgery in Seoul, South Korea treats keloid and other scars primarily with surgical scar revision. A consultation and estimate may cost around $210, while the main procedure is typically priced at 300,000 KRW per centimeter. The clinic's key strength is Dr. Yong Woo Kim, a specialist with 14 years of experience and over 1,000 procedures performed.

The core treatment offered is surgical scar revision. This surgical removal corrects keloids and other scars. The doctor excises the old scar tissue and closes the wound with multilayer sutures. This method creates a finer, less noticeable scar line. The entire procedure can often be scheduled on the same day as the consultation for patient convenience.

The price for scar revision surgery is calculated based on the scar's length. The cost is typically around 300,000 KRW per centimeter. This base price covers the surgical procedure and essential post-operative care. A 10% VAT is added to this final amount. The clinic provides a preliminary estimate starting around $210 to begin the planning process.

I had a few places in mind for a jaw-correction/double-chin surgery, and among the ones I visited for an initial consultation, Returning Plastic Surgery was the one where I felt most comfortable. Dr. Kim was very attentive, highly approachable, and took the time to listen and share unbiased professional opinions — a rare find in an often high-pressure and anxiety-inducing setting. And the before/after pictures speak for themselves and are a testament to his reputable skills. Anyone considering cosmetic surgery in gangnam area should definitely include this practice on their list.

This clinic has a director who feels very professional and serious about their work. After much consideration, I decided to have an eye-corner lift surgery here, and I am very satisfied with the results, which are still well-maintained. All the staff members are highly skilled and have excellent knowledge of plastic surgery. Since it is a newly established clinic, the facilities are clean and great. I would like to recommend this clinic to others.
