My First Plastic Surgery Experience in South Korea ,A Journey with Girin Plastic Surgery

After months of thorough research, I decided to undergo my first plastic surgery procedures at Girin Plastic Surgery in Seoul. Throughout the preparation process, I communicated closely with their team, especially Miss Anna who provided consistent support and guidance for about three months prior to my trip.

I arrived in Seoul on July 12 and was warmly welcomed by Girin’s convenient pickup service. Upon arriving at the clinic, Miss Anna helped me complete medical tests and attend a detailed final consultation to confirm the most suitable treatment plan. The procedures I chose included:
Mini tummy tuck
Mini facelift
Under-eye fat repositioning
Incisional double eyelid surgery

Once my health check cleared, surgery was scheduled for July 14 and was performed by Dr. Jeon Ji In. From our very first meeting, I felt confident in her professionalism and skill. The entire surgery took approximately seven hours, and I woke up in the recovery room under close observation.

I stayed overnight at the clinic for monitoring, and the following day, Dr. Jeon conducted a thorough check-up and cleaned my sutures before I was discharged to my hotel.

Recovery Process:
The first 3 days involved expected discomfort, mostly swelling around the eyes, face, and abdomen. I carefully followed all aftercare instructions.
Day 5: Eyelid stitches were removed.
Day 8: Facial stitches were cleaned.
Day 15: Lower abdominal stitches were removed
Despite the summer heat in Seoul, I was able to enjoy light sightseeing while healing gradually and comfortably.

Final Thoughts:
Girin provided exceptional care from beginning to end. Dr. Jeon’s expertise, paired with Miss Anna’s excellent coordination and communication, made the entire experience smooth and reassuring. For anyone considering plastic surgery in South Korea, I highly recommend Girin Plastic Surgery.
