The staff was extremely friendly and allowed me to sit in a different room to be more comfortable while reading and waiting for my operation
I liked having an interpreter with me during the visit. That surprised me in a good way, for I wasn't expecting that service on the day of. The staff was extremely friendly and allowed me to sit in a different room to be more comfortable while reading and waiting for my operation.

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.

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. Now I am still recovering and the final result is still far away, but I believe that everything will be fine. I would like to mention my coordinator-translator Jena. She is a very nice girl who helped me during my stay. Kind, nice, responsible and competent. She made me feel very comfortable. Thank you very much to the doctor, Jena and the clinic staff for everything. I will definitely recommend to my friends.

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!!
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

Effectiveness: 95% success rate
Duration: 3-6 hours
Recovery: 4-6 weeks
Best for: Individuals with congenital ear deformities or traumatic ear loss.

Prosthetic Ear

A prosthetic ear is an artificial device designed to replace the appearance of a natural ear.

Pros: Non-invasive, no surgical risks. Quick fitting process. Ideal for 100% aesthetic restoration without surgery.
Cons: Requires regular maintenance and replacements. Limited to aesthetic improvement only, not functional.
Effectiveness: Provides a 95% visual match to a natural ear.
Duration: 1-2 hours
Recovery: Not needed
Best for: Individuals with ear loss or deformity. Suitable for those avoiding surgery.

Ear Lift Surgery

Ear lift surgery is a cosmetic procedure aimed at reshaping and lifting the ears for aesthetic enhancement.

Pros: Achieves a natural look with minimal scarring. Success rate of 90% for achieving desired ear position. Unlike prosthetic options, it uses your own tissue, reducing allergy risk.
Cons: May require revision surgery in 10% of cases. Longer recovery compared to prosthetic ear solutions.
Effectiveness: 90% success rate in achieving the desired ear shape.
Duration: 1-2 hours
Recovery: 7-14 days
