Have you ever wondered which clinic to choose when considering cosmetic surgery in South Korea, so as to avoid potential problems? This time, I took a flight to Seoul and specifically visited several plastic surgery clinics in the Gangnam area. In the end, I decided on Dream Plastic Surgery. To be honest, in a place like Gangnam where there are so many plastic surgery hospitals everywhere, it’s really not easy to find one that makes me want to sit down and consult with them a second time.
I. Why did I give up working in a chain clinic? The reasons why Dream Plastic Surgery made me decide to stay.
Let me state the conclusion first: if you don’t want to be treated as just another “product number” on an assembly line, Dream Plastic Surgery’s approach of “personal consultations by the director and customized treatment plans” will surely give you a greater sense of reassurance. The first time I noticed this clinic was when I was walking around near Gangnam Station; on the maps pointed out by passersby, this clinic appeared particularly frequently. It was only later that I learned that it already enjoys an excellent reputation among local South Koreans.
What matters most to me personally is whether the director will actually examine the patients in person, or whether only the initial consultations are conducted by the director while subsequent follow-up treatments are handled by other doctors. At Dream, I saw for myself how the director directly used a mirror during the consultation and said to me, “This part of your nose needs adjustment.” It wasn’t that kind of mechanical, process-driven approach where they just refer to images while talking. Whether this is worth it or not… you can decide for yourselves.
II. Where exactly is Dream Plastic Surgery located? It’s less than a 3-minute walk from Apgujeong Station.
The clinic is located at 848 Nonhyeon-ro, Gangnam-gu, Seoul, just 161 meters away from Exit 3 of the Apgujeong station on Line 3 of the subway. It takes only about 2 to 3 minutes to walk there after getting off the train. For tourists, this location is truly extremely convenient – after browsing through the boutiques in Apgujeong-dong or enjoying a cup of coffee, they can simply stop by for a consultation without having to take any extra detours.
They are open from Monday to Friday until 7 p.m., on Saturdays until 5 p.m., and closed on Sundays. It is recommended to make reservations in advance, as they have a considerable number of local customers, and waiting in line on-site may be necessary.
III. What exactly are the strengths of Dream Plastic Surgery’s [nasal plastic surgery] services?
What I really want to know this time is about their rhinoplasty services. Since I belong to the category of people with a “short nasal bridge, a short septum, and exposed nostrils,” the common solution offered by most clinics is simply to use implants to raise the nose. However, the director at Dream would demonstrate for me on the spot using models: what materials are needed to support the tip of my nose, how much narrowing of the nostrils would look natural, and what the ideal angle should be between the nose tip and the midpoint of my eyebrows.
Their rhinoplasty approach doesn’t involve creating a “standard” version of the nose; instead, they adjust the procedure based on your facial structure and the proportions of your features. When my friend returned to Taiwan after the surgery, no one noticed that she had had it done; everyone just thought, “Your nose has always looked like this, right?” – I think this is the highest compliment you can receive for a naturally appearing result after plastic surgery.
IV. Are the [Breast augmentation] and [facial contour shaping] services offered by Dream Plastic Surgery worth the investment?
In addition to nose surgery, breast augmentation and facial contouring are also their main services. For breast augmentation, they offer a combination of “prosthetic implants + revision surgeries” – specifically designed for those who are dissatisfied with the results of previous procedures elsewhere and wish to undergo revision surgery. In terms of prices, according to the reference quotes on BeautsGO, breast augmentation surgeries start from approximately ¥917.3 million, while facial contouring (using the dual-ring analysis method) starts from approximately ¥922.8 million.
The term “dual-ring analysis method” is what they use to describe the logic behind facial contour design. Simply put, it involves using two circular analysis lines to determine how far your face shape is from the ideal “beautiful face” standard, and then making targeted adjustments to the contours accordingly. For people with square faces or wide jawlines, such a data-driven approach provides much more reassurance than relying solely on a doctor’s judgment.
V. What is the environment like in a Dream plastic surgery clinic? Let us take you through it with pictures and texts.
Overall, the atmosphere at Dream Plastic Surgery gave me the impression of being “down-to-earth, professional, and unpretentious.” There was no overwhelming sense of luxury that made you wonder whether all the money spent was on decoration. The staff’s service attitude was also very natural; they didn’t engage in overly enthusiastic sales pitches. They would answer any questions you had without trying to push products you might not need.
