Procedure Steps

1
Consultation · Design
We diagnose the condition of the eyes and design the incision method and line height.
2
anesthesia
Local anesthesia is used as the standard, and sedation is combined depending on the hospital.
3
surgery
Correction is performed along the designed line using the buried or incision method.
4
Recovery and Suture Removal
The stitches are removed and the progress is checked on days 5 to 7 after the incision.

Pros

The burden of surgery is relatively small compared to the change in facial appearance.
There are various methods available, so you can choose the one that suits your eye condition.
The buried suture method offers fast recovery and minimal scarring.

Things to Consider

It takes several weeks to several months for the swelling to subside and the lines to settle.
The suture line can come undone with the buried suture method.
The incisional method carries a relatively large burden of scarring and recovery.

Side Effects & Precautions

Please avoid drinking alcohol, smoking, and saunas for 1 to 2 weeks after surgery.
Please follow the hospital's instructions regarding wearing contact lenses and eye makeup while experiencing swelling.
Follow-up observation is necessary due to the possibility of revision surgery, such as asymmetry or the line coming undone.

This is general guidance; details vary by individual and clinic. Always consult a medical specialist.

Frequently Asked Questions

How much does Eye Enlargement cost in Korea?

Eye Enlargement in Korea typically costs around 1,320,000~1,870,000 KRW, though the exact price varies by clinic, your case, and what's included. Seoul prices reflect surgeon experience, technique, and aftercare — always confirm whether anesthesia, follow-ups, and post-op care are bundled in your quote. Because every body and goal is different, your final cost can only be confirmed at an in-person or video consultation with a board-certified doctor.

What is the recovery time for Eye Enlargement?

Most patients need about 7 days of downtime for Eye Enlargement before returning to daily activities. Initial swelling and bruising usually peak in the first few days, then settle gradually, while full results can take several weeks to months to show. Recovery depends on the technique used and your individual healing, so follow your surgeon's aftercare plan and confirm your personal timeline with the clinic.

Is Eye Enlargement painful, and what kind of anesthesia is used?

Eye Enlargement is generally well-tolerated, with anesthesia chosen to keep you comfortable throughout. Depending on the procedure, Korean clinics use local anesthesia, sedation, or general anesthesia, and most discomfort afterward is managed with prescribed medication. Pain tolerance is personal, so discuss anesthesia options and pain management with a board-certified anesthesiologist or surgeon before your treatment.

Choose a clinic with board-certified specialists, transparent pricing, and strong patient reviews.
