Wonderful Plastic Surgery: more details about the clinic
Wonderful Plastic Surgery is a private clinic in Seoul's Gangnam district. Established in 2026, it operates with a patient-centered "Healing Art" philosophy. The clinic sits just two minutes from Gangnam Station. Treatment plans are individualized based on thorough examinations rather than generic care packages.
Accreditations and Medical Expertise
Founder and Head Surgeon Dr. Koo Youn-Taek leads the clinic. The medical team includes 16 doctors, with 4 primary surgeons specializing in aesthetic and reconstructive procedures. Every surgery is performed exclusively by board-certified specialists.
Wonderful Plastic Surgery holds accreditation from the American Society of Plastic Surgeons (ASPS). The clinic maintains a strict "no-substitution" policy. The surgeon who conducts your initial consultation also performs the surgery and manages your recovery. This prevents delegated surgeries and keeps the lead specialist accountable for your results.
Specialized Surgical Procedures
The clinic specializes in facial and body contouring through several methods:
- Rhinoplasty – including tip rhinoplasty and corrective procedures
- Eye Surgery – double eyelid creation and eye shape correction
- Facelifts – specialized deep plane facelifts for significant rejuvenation
- Body Contouring – liposuction across multiple areas, such as the tummy, neck, and double chin
- Breast Surgery – augmentation and lifting procedures
Recovery for deep plane facelifts follows specific safety protocols. Patients keep their heads elevated for the first 5 days. Straining the face is restricted for 3 weeks to reduce bleeding risks. For neck lifts, facial compression bands are worn 24 hours a day until the fifth post-operative day.
Aesthetic Medicine and Cosmetic Treatments
The clinic also offers non-surgical aesthetic and cosmetology services. These treatments improve skin quality and refine facial features without incisions:
- Injectables – Botox, fillers, and skin boosters like Juvelook and Rejuran
- Lifting Technologies – radiofrequency, ultrasound, and titanium lifting
- Body Treatments – cryolipolysis (Coolsculpting) and mesotherapy for fat reduction
- Regenerative Therapy – Platelet-Rich Plasma (PRP) treatments and stem cell injections
Skin treatments often complement surgical outcomes. Some patients receive under-eye filler alongside buccal fat extraction for a balanced facial profile. The clinic maintains over 800 review items, including 33 detailed before-and-after cases.
Patient Safety and Technology
The facility maintains a calm medical environment with private consultation rooms. It avoids crowded waiting areas to protect patient privacy. Safety protocols include transparent communication about potential complications like infection or inflammation. Surgeons use precise planning based on accurate diagnoses to avoid unnecessary operations.
International Patient Services
Wonderful Plastic Surgery provides dedicated support for patients traveling from abroad. English-speaking staff and professional interpreters are available during all stages of care.
