Lower Eyelid Surgery Review – 1 Month Post-Op
Before the surgery, I had very noticeable eyebags under both eyes, with the right side sagging more than the left. It made me look constantly tired and older than I felt. The sagging skin around my lower eyelids really affected my confidence, and I was ready for a change.
1 Week Post-Op:
The first week was mostly about managing swelling and bruising, which was expected. Both eyes looked puffy, and there was some soreness near my cheeks, especially in the first couple of days. Luckily, cold compresses helped a lot, and by the end of the week, the discomfort had already started to fade.
2 Weeks Post-Op:
By the second week, my stitches had been removed (on day 7), and the healing was clearly progressing. The bruising was much lighter, although I still had some swelling in the lower eyelids. There was a bit of asymmetry in the healing process—one side was recovering a bit faster—but that’s normal and not a concern. The incision sites were slightly pink but looked healthy overall.
1 Month Post-Op:
Now, at the one-month mark, the transformation is incredible. My under-eye area looks so much smoother and firmer. The eyebags are completely gone, and my face looks much more refreshed and youthful. I still feel a little tightness and mild soreness now and then, and some occasional itching as things continue to heal—but that’s part of the normal recovery. Overall, I feel so much more confident and happy with the way I look.
Beyond the results, I can’t say enough good things about the clinic. The English-speaking staff were amazing—very kind, professional, and genuinely thoughtful throughout the whole process. My translator made sure I understood everything during the consultation and surgery planning. The doctor took the time to really listen to my concerns and preferences and explained the surgical plan clearly, which made me feel at ease.
As a bonus, the clinic offered me complimentary full-face Botox after the procedure, which was such a nice touch! The clinic itself was spotless and very hygienic, and the aftercare instructions were clear and easy to follow. They were also very responsive via WhatsApp whenever I had questions after the surgery. What impressed me most was that they even suggested a follow-up appointment during my next visit to Seoul, showing how much they care about long-term results.
I’m honestly so happy with both the outcome of the surgery and the entire experience with the clinic. I’d absolutely recommend them to anyone considering lower eyelid surgery—especially if you’re traveling from abroad!

Do you mind sharing how long you stayed in Seoul after the surgery? I'm trying to plan a trip and figure out how much time I'd need for recovery before flying back.
