Personalized Plastic Surgery in Busan

Cosmetic surgery should consider more than a single facial feature or current beauty trend. Facial proportions, skin thickness, tissue position, existing scars and the patient’s preferred degree of change can all influence the surgical plan.

Trendy Plastic Surgery focuses on individualized treatment rather than applying one standard design to every patient. During the consultation, the surgeon may evaluate:

• Facial proportions and symmetry
• Eyelid structure and eye shape
• Nasal bridge, tip and nostril proportions
• Skin and soft-tissue thickness
• Existing surgical scars
• Previous implants or procedures
• Functional concerns
• The patient’s desired appearance
• Realistic benefits and limitations

The final procedure and surgical method are determined after an in-person examination.

Meet Dr. Kim Nam-hoon

Dr. Kim Nam-hoon is the representative director of Trendy Plastic Surgery and a board-certified plastic surgeon in Korea.

His professional background includes:

• Plastic surgery specialist training at Inje University Paik Hospital
• Former adjunct professor in plastic surgery at Inje University Paik Hospital
• Former director at BS The Body Plastic Surgery
• Former director at Galaxy Plastic Surgery
• Member of the Korean Society of Plastic and Reconstructive Surgeons
• Member of the Korean Society for Aesthetic Plastic Surgery

Dr. Kim provides consultation, treatment planning, surgery and postoperative monitoring. Patients can discuss both their aesthetic goals and concerns about recovery, scarring and surgical limitations directly with the surgeon.

Eye Surgery in Busan

Eye surgery can improve eyelid definition, symmetry and the overall balance between the eyes and surrounding facial features. The correct procedure depends on the patient’s eyelid anatomy rather than the desired crease alone.

Trendy Plastic Surgery provides consultations for procedures such as:

• Double-eyelid surgery
• Incisional double-eyelid surgery
• Non-incisional or natural-adhesion methods
• Ptosis correction
• Inner-corner surgery
• Outer-corner surgery
• Lower-corner surgery
• Under-eye surgery
• Upper-eyelid surgery for aging eyes
• Lower blepharoplasty
• Eye revision surgery
• Epicanthoplasty restoration

The surgeon evaluates eyelid skin, fat, muscle function, crease height and eye-opening strength before recommending a technique.

Double-Eyelid Surgery

Double-eyelid surgery creates or improves an upper-eyelid crease. The design should complement the patient’s eye shape, eyebrow position and facial proportions.

Possible approaches include:

Non-Incisional Double-Eyelid Surgery

A non-incisional method may be considered for patients with relatively thin eyelids, limited excess skin and suitable eyelid anatomy. It generally creates smaller access points than a full incision, although it is not appropriate for every patient.

Incisional Double-Eyelid Surgery

An incisional approach may be recommended when the eyelids have thicker tissue, excess skin, significant fat or a previous crease that requires correction. This method provides greater access for structural adjustment but usually involves more swelling and recovery.

Ptosis Correction

Ptosis correction may be considered when weak eye-opening function makes the eyes appear tired or causes compensatory forehead movement. The surgeon must assess whether the concern is related to true eyelid ptosis, skin excess, eyebrow position or another anatomical factor.

Eye Revision Surgery

Revision eye surgery may address concerns following a previous procedure, including:

• An overly high or low eyelid crease
• Asymmetrical creases
• Multiple crease lines
• An unnatural or deep appearance
• A loosened crease
• Visible scarring
• Persistent eyelid heaviness
• Overexposure or insufficient exposure of the eyes

Revision surgery is often more complex because scar tissue and altered anatomy can limit available options. Patients should bring previous surgical information and earlier photographs when available.

Rhinoplasty in Busan

Rhinoplasty changes the shape, projection or proportions of the nose while considering its relationship with the forehead, eyes, lips and chin.

Trendy Plastic Surgery provides consultations for:

• Low-bridge rhinoplasty
• Nasal-tip surgery
• Implant-free tip surgery
• Non-open rhinoplasty
• Short-nose correction
• Long-nose correction
• Upturned-nose correction
• Hump-nose correction
• Wide-nose correction
• Bulbous-tip correction
• Nostril reduction
• Crooked-nose correction
• Male rhinoplasty
• Revision rhinoplasty

A customized surgical plan may involve the nasal bridge, tip, alar base, septum or other supporting structures. The exact materials and techniques depend on the patient’s anatomy and surgical history.

Nasal-Tip Surgery

Nasal-tip surgery is designed to improve tip definition, projection or rotation. Depending on the patient’s structure, the surgeon may use cartilage reshaping, suturing or grafting techniques.

The goal is not simply to create the highest possible tip. The planned projection should remain balanced with the bridge, nostrils and overall facial profile.

Implant-Free Rhinoplasty

Some patients prefer to avoid an artificial implant. An implant-free approach may use the patient’s own tissue for selected areas of the nose, but suitability depends on the desired amount of change and available cartilage.

Autologous materials may include cartilage from the septum, ear or rib. Each option has different benefits, limitations and donor-site considerations that should be discussed during consultation.

Revision Rhinoplasty

Revision rhinoplasty may be considered for patients experiencing:

• An unnatural bridge
• Implant visibility or movement
• Tip drooping
• Nasal asymmetry
• Scar-tissue problems
• Insufficient improvement
• An overly high or low bridge
• Changes in nostril shape
• Functional discomfort
• Infection or implant-related concerns

The surgeon may need to evaluate existing implants, remaining cartilage, scar tissue and skin condition before establishing a treatment plan. In some cases, implant removal and a staged revision may be safer than immediate reconstruction.

Forehead Reduction Surgery

Forehead reduction, also called hairline-lowering surgery, reduces the visible height of the forehead by advancing the hair-bearing scalp.

It may be considered by patients concerned about:

• A naturally high hairline
• An elongated-looking forehead
• Facial imbalance caused by forehead height
• A high forehead that cannot be sufficiently changed with hair styling

Suitability depends on scalp flexibility, hair density, hair-loss risk, skin condition and the desired amount of advancement. The incision is positioned near the hairline, so patients should discuss scar development and possible temporary changes around the incision.

Facial Fat Grafting

Facial fat grafting transfers processed fat from another area of the body to selected areas of the face. It may help restore volume and soften hollow or flat-looking areas.

Common treatment areas may include:

• Forehead
• Temples
• Upper cheeks
• Midface
• Nasolabial area
• Chin
• Other areas affected by volume loss

Not all transferred fat survives permanently. Some absorption is expected, and the final volume can take time to stabilize. Patients should ask about potential asymmetry, swelling, fat survival and whether an additional session may be required.

Lifting and Facial Rejuvenation

Age-related facial changes may include skin laxity, soft-tissue descent, volume loss and reduced jawline definition. Treatment should be selected according to the cause and severity of the concern.

Available consultations may include:

• Thread lifting
• Nonsurgical facial lifting
• Facial contouring injections
• Volume restoration
• Botox
• Dermal fillers
• Combination anti-aging treatment

Patients with mild laxity may be candidates for a nonsurgical procedure, while more advanced sagging may require a surgical option to produce a meaningful change.

Thread Lifting

Thread lifting uses absorbable threads to reposition selected facial tissues and support collagen remodeling. It may be considered for mild to moderate laxity involving the cheeks, jowls or jawline.

Results are generally less extensive and less permanent than those of surgical lifting. Possible effects include swelling, bruising, dimpling, temporary asymmetry and tenderness along the thread pathway.

Botox Treatment

Botulinum toxin can be used to reduce selected facial muscle activity or create a slimmer appearance in areas affected by muscle prominence.

Consultations may be available for concerns involving:

• Forehead lines
• Frown lines
• Crow’s feet
• Masseter muscles
• Facial expression lines
• Other appropriate treatment areas

The effect is temporary, and repeat treatment may be needed. Dosage and injection points should be selected according to the patient’s facial movement and desired level of correction.

Dermal Fillers

Dermal fillers may be used to restore volume, improve contours or soften selected folds. Possible areas include the forehead, temples, cheeks, lips, chin and nasolabial folds.

The provider should consider:

• Facial symmetry
• Existing volume
• Skin thickness
• Previous filler treatment
• Product placement
• Blood-vessel anatomy
• The patient’s desired result

Patients must disclose previous filler injections, including the product, treatment area and approximate date whenever possible.

Plastic Surgery Consultation Process

1. Initial Inquiry

Patients can contact the clinic to explain their main concern and request an appointment. Photographs may help with preliminary communication but cannot replace an examination.

2. In-Person Assessment

The surgeon evaluates the treatment area, facial proportions, tissue condition and previous surgical history.

3. Customized Surgical Plan

Recommended procedures, expected changes, incision placement, anesthesia and recovery are discussed. Patients should also receive information about limitations and potential complications.

4. Preoperative Preparation

Preoperative tests or medical clearance may be required depending on the procedure and anesthesia. Patients must disclose all medical conditions, medications, supplements, allergies and smoking history.

5. Surgery or Treatment

The selected procedure is performed according to the confirmed surgical plan. The duration and anesthesia method depend on the operation.

6. Postoperative Follow-Up

The clinic monitors healing, removes sutures when required and provides aftercare instructions. Additional visits may be scheduled according to the procedure and recovery progress.

Preparing for Plastic Surgery

Before surgery, patients may be instructed to:

• Complete blood tests or other examinations
• Stop selected medications or supplements with medical approval
• Avoid smoking and nicotine
• Avoid alcohol before surgery
• Follow fasting instructions for anesthesia
• Remove jewelry, contact lenses and nail products
• Arrange transportation after surgery
• Wear loose or front-opening clothing
• Prepare sufficient time in Busan for follow-up

Never stop prescribed medication without approval from the prescribing doctor and surgical team.

Recovery After Plastic Surgery

Recovery varies according to the operation, surgical extent and individual healing response. Temporary symptoms can include:

• Swelling
• Bruising
• Tightness
• Tenderness
• Numbness
• Mild asymmetry
• Incision redness
• Changes in sensation

Visible swelling may improve earlier than deeper tissue swelling. Final results can take several weeks or months to stabilize, particularly after rhinoplasty or revision surgery.

Patients should follow the clinic’s instructions regarding medication, wound care, sleeping position, exercise, makeup and wearing glasses or contact lenses.

Information for International Patients

International patients considering plastic surgery in Busan should contact Trendy Plastic Surgery before arranging flights or accommodation. Current English-language assistance and interpretation availability should be confirmed directly with the clinic.

• Preferred procedure
• Previous surgery or filler history
• Relevant medical conditions
• Current medication

Planning a Medical Trip to Busan

International patients should allow enough time for:

• An in-person consultation
• Preoperative testing
• Surgery
• Early postoperative monitoring
• Dressing changes
• Suture removal
• A final check before departure

The recommended stay depends on the procedure. Patients undergoing revision surgery or multiple operations may need a longer recovery period than those receiving a minor procedure.
