I’m considering getting both upper and lower eyelid surgery (blepharoplasty) done in Korea and was hoping to hear from others who’ve had this procedure there. If you’ve gone through it, could you share what your experience was like? Specifically, I’m curious about your healing timeline — how long did the swelling and bruising last, and when did you start to feel ‘normal’ again? Also, were there any unexpected side effects or challenges you didn’t anticipate during recovery? Would you recommend the clinic or surgeon you went with? Any tips or advice for someone preparing for the procedure would be greatly appreciated!"
About seven months ago, I had upper and lower eyelid surgery in Seoul at Yujin Plastic Surgery with Dr. Tae-jo Kang, known for natural-looking results. The surgery used hidden and scarless techniques, and the recovery was smoother than expected—swelling peaked around day three, bruising faded in two weeks, and by week three, I was back to work looking refreshed.
Minor side effects like dryness and light sensitivity resolved over time, and by three months, everything looked and felt normal. If you’re looking for subtle, balanced eyelid surgery results in Korea, I highly recommend Yujin and Dr. Kang.
