Friendly Staff and Professional Doctors

Got a good discount and free airport transfer for my procedure.The consultation was professional yet very friendly. They really listened to the look I wanted and made thoughtful recommendations that suited my existing features. Language is also not an issue, they provide in-house translators who are very caring and professional too! The recovery process was very smooth. On the third day, I went back to have the nose cast removed, and on the seventh day, I returned for stitch removal. Throughout the entire process, there was minimal discomfort and pain. I was also given clear aftercare instructions, and the team checked in regularly to make sure everything was healing well, which gave me a lot of peace of mind. Overall, a great experience and I would highly recommend this clinic.

Facial Procedures With AB Plastic Surgery in Gangnam

Doctor: Dr. Jae Ik Choi?Clinic: AB Plastic Surgery?Date of Procedure: December 2025?Procedures: Deep plane face and neck lift, AccuSculpt facial liposuction, submentoplasty, lower blepharoplasty with mid-face lift, external canthopexy, and PRP facial fat grafting?Price: 23,700,000 KRW (inclusive of surgery and care; only minor prescription costs were additional) I recently underwent a deep plane face and neck lift at AB Plastic Surgery and am very happy with both the experience and the results. Traveling overseas for surgery can feel daunting, but AB made the entire process smooth and reassuring. I researched several clinics before arriving in Korea and chose to proceed with an in-person consultation at AB after weeks of online communication via WhatsApp. That process was extremely helpful in understanding my options and agreeing on a clear treatment plan in advance. The in-person consultation went exactly as expected, with no surprises or pressure to add procedures. My translator, Alex, was excellent, and Dr. Jae Ik Choi’s strong English made communication easy and reassuring. The facilities are modern, and the staff were professional, attentive, and genuinely caring throughout the process. It has been two weeks since surgery, and while the first day was challenging—as expected for an 8-hour procedure—the recovery progressed quickly. Within days, the results already felt well worth the time, cost, and effort. I would highly recommend AB Plastic Surgery to anyone considering similar facial procedures. Note: I received a discount in exchange for writing this review; however, it reflects my honest and genuine experience.

Foreigner Experience at AB Plastic Surgery

I had a Non-Insicional Double Eyelid and Ptosis Correction surgery at AB Plastic Surgery in Gangnam and I was very satisfied with my experience. This was my first time getting a cosmetic procedure and the process was made so simple for me. They provided an English translator and English-written documents which made everything clear to me as a foreigner. Leading up to my procedure, they communicated on Whatsapp all the measures and precautions to take before the surgery, which was all very straightforward and simple. The procedure itself was very simple and I had no complications. They provided me with the essential information for my recovery. Bruising and slight pain only lasted a week but I was given an icepack and pain relief medication which helped a lot! It has since been a month since I had my procedure and all of my bruising and swelling have healed. I can touch my eyes without any pain now. I am very happy with the results of the procedure, everyone has complimented them! I'm most satisfied with the subtle and natural appearance, it makes me forget I had the procedure at all! Price was originally $2400 AUD but they reduced it to $1200 as long as I gave a review :)

My Eyelid with Ptosis Surgery with AB

Hey guys! I just wanted to share my experience getting incisional double eyelid surgery with ptosis correction at AB Plastic Surgery in South Korea. I decided to go with AB because their prices were reasonable and, more importantly, I felt genuinely heard during the consultation. They listened to my concerns, explained different options without pushing anything unnecessary, and were able to schedule both the consultation and surgery very quickly, which worked well for my timing. I originally sought surgery because I had a severe eczema flare-up that caused the skin above my eyes to sag, leaving my eyelids uneven. I wanted a higher and more defined crease to correct this, and I was told that incisional double eyelid surgery with ptosis correction would work best for my case. The whole process went smoothly, and even though I’m not a fan of invasive procedures, the staff—and especially the translator—helped me feel at ease throughout everything. At 1 month post-op, I had no complaints at all. There was still some swelling, but I was already happy with the direction things were going. Now that I’m about 2 months post-op, the swelling has continued to go down little by little. They’re still a bit puffy in the mornings, and I’ve noticed that one side seems to be de-swelling slightly faster than the other, but I’m assuming it’s just part of the normal healing process. I’m not worried about it, and overall I’m really happy with how my eyes look so far. If anyone has questions about the experience, feel free to ask! Also, if you have any good tips for reducing scarring, I’d love to hear them. Mine are fading slowly, but looking at them every day makes it hard to tell if there’s much progress.

Fantastic Experience with AB Plastic Surgery Clinic/ Dr. Choi

After a thorough investigation of different procedures, and especially different countries' top specialists and clinics, I settled on AB Plastic Surgery in Gangnam, Seoul. Communication with them in English was excellent from the start. They were clear about the procedures on offer, the pricing, recovery times etc. I'd read excellent reviews of Dr Choi Jae Ik, as he's an internationally-recognised anti-ageing surgeon, and made sure he'd be my surgeon when booking ahead. From the very first introduction he and his professional team were warmly welcoming and put me at ease. We had an interpreter present, though Dr Choi's English was quite good, with his expertise (and sense of humour) very evident. The procedures we settled on were: Deep plane SMAS face lifting. Neck lifting with Submentoplasty. Endoscopic forehead lifting, upper and lower eyelid blepharoplasty with ptosis correction. Facial fat grafting. The procedures went exactly as expected, and even though it's only been a week since my surgery I'm delighted with the results! The first couple of days immediately after the surgery were pretty uncomfortable - to be expected - but it's been getting better day by day. I can only give Dr Choi, his team, and AB Plastic Surgery my highest praise and recommendations. He's truly an artist.

Feeling More Confident Than Ever After My Surgery at AB Plastic Surgery

Hi everyone, I’m Jiseok. It’s been about more than two months since I had my operations at AB Plastic Surgery. My operation were divided into two segments, and it occurred at the end of July. I had the following procedures performed by AB Plastic Hump Smoothing, Short Nose Correction, Bulbous Tip Correction, Alar Reduction, Lateral Osteomy, Nasolabial Angle Correction, Rib Cartilage, Rib Cartilage, Stem Cell, Fat Grafting, Thighs Liposuction ,Knee Liposuction, Calf Liposuction, Hip Buttocks Liposuction, Back Liposuction, Calf Botox, Incisional Eyelid with Ptosis Correction Infrabrow Lifting Lateral Canthoplasty+Lower Lateral Canthoplasty Epicanthoplasty Lower Blepharoplasty Arm Liposuction Neck Lifting Deep Plane Face Lifting Endoscopic Forehead Lifting Face Liposuction (Jowl+Chin) with Submentoplasty 2nd Fat Grafting I wanted to share my honest experience so far! Before choosing AB, I visited several clinics, but what really made me decide on AB was how professional, transparent, and caring everyone was. From consultation to recovery, the whole team made me feel supported and understood. A special mention goes to Silla, who guided and translated everything for me. She was incredibly patient, kind, and always available to answer my questions, even during the recovery phase. Her support made the entire journey so much easier and less stressful. Each procedure was performed by highly skilled doctors specialized in their respective fields: Dr. Ma Seung Hwan, who did my Rhinoplasty, created a nose shape that looks beautifully natural and suits my facial balance perfectly. Dr. Choi Jae Ik, my eyes doctor, ensured my results look refreshed but not artificial — the subtle difference makes a huge impact. And Dr. Jo Kyu Sang, who performed my body liposuction, did an amazing job contouring and refining my body line. The first few weeks of recovery were tougher than I expected — swelling took longer to go down, and I sometimes doubted if I’d made the right decision. But now, two months later, the results are honestly beyond what I hoped for. My nose has a very natural shape, my jawline is defined yet soft thanks to the V-line and fat grafting, and my body contour looks much smoother and more proportional. Friends and family keep telling me I look more confident and refreshed — and I feel that way too. The results are subtle, harmonious, and natural, which is exactly what I wanted. I’m deeply thankful to the amazing doctors — Dr. Ma, Dr. Choi, and Dr. Jo — and of course to Sylla for being there every step of the way. The professionalism and care at AB Plastic Surgery truly exceeded my expectations. If you’re considering any of these procedures, I can wholeheartedly recommend AB Plastic Surgery. The experience wasn’t always easy, but the outcome made everything worth it.

Grateful I Chose AB Plastic

I'm so happy with my results. From the moment I arrived in Korea until the end of my trip, everything went smoothly. AB Plastic even arranged transportation to the airport, which made the process easy. I underwent a deep plane facelift, blepharoplasty, ptosis correction, fat transfer under the eyes and eyelids, and a neck lift. The scarring has all faded, and my face looks natural—exactly the outcome I hoped for, and I'm more confident, my Friends and family can’t even tell I’ve had surgery. The translator provided by AB Plastic was also a great support. Since I don’t speak Korean, she guided me through each step, checked in regularly during recovery, and even offered advice on what to eat. Looking back, I’m happy I chose AB Plastic for my surgery, it was totally worth it.

Best Birthday Gift from my Hubby!

Last year, for our anniversary, my wonderful husband gifted me a life-changing surgery—my facelift, neck lift, platysmaplasty, and face fat graft. It felt like a dream come true. I had been concerned about my aging appearance for a few years, especially as I was turning 50, but feeling like I looked closer to 60-70 really took a toll on my confidence. I had my consultation with Dr. Choi Jae Ik, who speaks English fluently and really took the time to explain everything. He recommended a few procedures, and, well, I ended up getting them all done together (lol)! Honestly, the decision wasn't easy, but I’m so glad I took the leap. The recovery process had its moments, of course. The pain was manageable, and the swelling was definitely uncomfortable at times, but with some painkillers, I could sleep through the nights, which made all the difference. I also did some Hyperbaric Oxygen Therapy (HBOT) because my blood circulation wasn’t the best, and it really helped speed up my recovery. Now, 5 months post-op, I’m amazed at how far I’ve come! The swelling in my temple area has improved over time, and while I know it will take a bit more time to fully settle, I already feel fantastic about my results. My sagging skin is finally gone, and I feel like I’ve reclaimed my youth. It's been such a rewarding experience, and I couldn't be happier with how things turned out! Surgery that i had were Face Lifting, Endotine Forehead Lifting, Lower Blepharoplasty, Facial Fat Grafting, Neck Lifting, Platysmaplasty Updated on 16 Nov 2025: Now that I’m over a year post-op, I can honestly say the transformation has been worth every moment of downtime. My face has continued to refine beautifully. The swelling in my temples, which took the longest to settle, is now almost completely gone. My skin doesn’t sag anymore, my jawline is defined, and I feel like I’ve gained back a decade — maybe two — of youth and confidence. What I appreciate most is how natural everything looks. I don’t feel “overdone.” I just feel like the best, refreshed version of myself. Because of how happy I am with my results, I’m already planning to return to AB in 2026 for a few additional procedures to maintain what I have and enhance a couple of areas I’ve been wanting to improve. I truly feel in safe hands with their team, and I’m excited for what’s next. I will be getting my upper lid done, and also some minimally invasive procedure too If anyone is considering facial rejuvenation, especially a full combination like I had, give yourself time to heal and be patient with the swelling, the one-year mark is where the real magic reveals itself. I couldn’t be more grateful for how everything turned out.
