“How does the recovery process differ for various plastic surgery procedures, particularly at 1mm Plastic Surgery, and what approaches do Dr. Eon Rok Do, Dr. Hong Jin Kim, and Dr. Young Su Na use to enhance recovery, minimize downtime, and ensure optimal patient outcomes?”
When I had rhinoplasty and facial contouring with Dr. Kim Kook Hyun at Human Plastic Surgery, my biggest concern was recovery but it turned out smoother than I expected. Facial swelling peaked around day 3–5 and mostly faded by week 2, with minimal pain. Breast and body surgeries generally take longer, especially if muscle or large areas are involved, but compression garments and good post-op care help a lot. Non-surgical treatments like Botox or thread lifts have almost no downtime. Dr. Kim’s precise technique and thoughtful follow-up made healing faster and easier and the natural-looking results were totally worth it.
Recovery definitely varies depending on the type of plastic surgery you get I learned this firsthand at 1mm Plastic Surgery in Seoul. I had rhinoplasty while my friend had eyelid surgery around the same time. My recovery took about 2 weeks for the major swelling to go down and a few months for full results, while she was back to work within a week!
What really helped us both was the aftercare at 1mm Plastic Surgery. The team, including Dr. Eon Rok Do, Dr. Hong Jin Kim, and Dr. Young Su Na, made sure we had personalized recovery timelines, clear instructions, and regular check-ins. They really tailor everything based on the procedure and your lifestyle.
