I used to think cosmetic surgery was all smooth sailing until I seriously looked into rhinoplasty and breast augmentation. That’s when I realized is every surgery carries risks. What matters most is choosing the right team and for me, that was 1mm Plastic Surgery in Seoul.

I had rhinoplasty with Dr. Hong Jin Kim and breast augmentation with Dr. Young Su Na, and I was honestly impressed. They explained every risk clearly, used high-precision techniques, and their aftercare was thorough ultrasounds, scar care, and regular follow-ups. What made me trust themis Their philosophy is small, precise changes for natural results, all while prioritizing safety. If you’re nervous about potential complications, this clinic takes them seriously and works hard to prevent them.

Yes, my wife approached Human Plastic Surgery through Cloud Hospital for my breast augmentation, and I can confirm that they do offer advanced 3D imaging technology to preview results before surgery. During my consultation, Dr. Kim Kook Hyun used a simulation system to show how different implant sizes and shapes would look on my body. It really helped me feel confident about my decision.

As for accuracy, the simulation was surprisingly close to my actual post-op results. While it can’t predict every minor detail—like how swelling will settle or how skin might stretch—it gave a realistic and helpful preview. It was especially useful in setting expectations and helping me communicate exactly what I wanted. I’d definitely recommend choosing a clinic that offers this feature—it made a big difference for me.

Popular cosmetic procedures like rhinoplasty, breast augmentation, and facelifts generally have good safety records, but like any surgery, they carry some risks and potential complications. Common issues may include infection, swelling, bruising, scarring, asymmetry, or dissatisfaction with the aesthetic outcome. More specific risks vary by procedure for example, rhinoplasty can involve breathing difficulties if not done carefully, breast augmentation may have implant-related complications, and facelifts can sometimes cause nerve irritation or prolonged swelling.

My cousin sister underwent breast augmentation and a facelift at SoonPlus Plastic Surgery with Dr. SoonDong Kim. She appreciated how thoroughly Dr. Kim explained all the risks beforehand and provided detailed aftercare instructions to minimize complications. Thanks to the clinic’s expert team and careful approach, her recovery was smooth with no major issues. She feels confident recommending SoonPlus Plastic Surgery and Dr. SoonDong Kim for anyone considering cosmetic surgery and wanting experienced care with transparent communication.

My sister recently went to Seoul to consult with specialists about cosmetic procedures like rhinoplasty, breast augmentation, and facelifts. She wanted a clear understanding of not just the benefits, but also the potential risks and complications involved. During her consultations, she learned that while these procedures are generally safe when performed by experienced surgeons, there are still risks such as infection, scarring, asymmetry, or implant-related issues. What impressed her most was when clinics took the time to explain these risks thoroughly and honestly, rather than just focusing on the results.

She found that Human Plastic Surgery offered the most transparent and professional consultation experience. Her meeting with Dr. Kim Kook Hyun stood out he carefully went over each procedure, the likelihood of complications, and the steps taken to minimize risks. My sister left feeling informed and reassured, confident that this clinic prioritizes both safety and patient education.
