Pop Plastic Surgery is a clinic in Gangnam that works almost entirely on eyes: creating an upper-eyelid crease, correcting a lid that does not open fully, opening the inner corner, and reworking eyelid surgery done somewhere else. Pop Plastic Surgery sees a lot of second operations as well as first ones. Nose surgery is offered too, but it is a small part of what patients come for.
Creates or defines a crease in the upper eyelid so the eye looks larger and more open. It is done either with buried sutures through small openings, which suits a thinner lid and heals faster, or with a full incision, which suits a lid with more skin or fat and lasts longer. Patients writing here most often name the clinic's buried-suture variant, which it calls natural adhesion. Both are surgical procedures; the choice is about which one your eyelid suits, not about avoiding surgery.
Reworks a crease from an earlier operation β one that has faded, sits too high or too low, or ended up uneven between the two eyes. A buried-suture crease loosening after several years is the most common reason patients writing here give for coming back. It is a harder operation than a first one, because the surgeon works around scar tissue and whatever the previous surgery left behind, and the options narrow the more skin has already been removed.
Opens the inner corner of the eye to lengthen the eye opening and soften the fold that covers it, so the eye reads longer rather than only wider. It is usually done alongside double eyelid surgery rather than on its own, because the crease and the corner together set the shape. It changes the corner permanently and can leave a visible scar there, which is the trade-off to ask about before agreeing to it.
Tightens or shortens the muscle that lifts the upper eyelid, for an eye that does not open fully and reads sleepy or asymmetric. It is a different problem from the crease: a crease changes where the lid folds, ptosis correction changes how far the lid opens. The two are often done in one operation, and a crease made on a lid that does not lift properly will not make the eye open any further.
Also offered at Pop Plastic Surgery
Rhinoplasty: Reshapes the nose β bridge height, tip definition, nostril width, or a combination β usually with the patient's own cartilage, sometimes with implant material. It is offered here, including corrective work on a nose operated on elsewhere, but eyelid surgery is what most patients come for.Eye Antiaging Surgery: Addresses the lower lid rather than the crease above it: repositioning or removing the fat that creates an under-eye bulge and the shadow beneath it, and tightening loose lower-lid skin. It answers a different complaint from double eyelid surgery, and the two are sometimes done in the same operation when both apply.

β’ Reason for choosing this:
My double eyelids were too small, so I decided to get the procedure.
β’ About the clinic:
There was no pressure to get additional procedures done elsewhere or anything like that β they were kind, and it was good.
β’ About the procedure:
At Pop Plastic Surgery I had natural adhesion using the in-out line method, inner corner incision, outer corner incision, and eye area correction. Recovery progressed faster than I expected, and as time passed the line settled in naturally, so I'm very satisfied. There's almost no "done" look, and people around me often say I look naturally prettier now. The swelling wasn't too bad either, so the recovery process was easy. Overall I'm very satisfied with the results.
β’ Overall:
At Pop Plastic Surgery I had the in-out line (inner-outer line lift), anterior incision, posterior incision, and eye area correction. Recovery after the surgery was faster than expected, and returning to daily life went smoothly. As time passed, the line blended in naturally, and I'm very satisfied. The look is neat rather than excessive, with almost no "done" appearance, and since the swelling wasn't severe either, the low burden was especially good. Overall I'm satisfied with the results β very satisfied.

β’ Concern before treatment:
My double eyelids were too small, so I decided to get the procedure.
β’ Consultation experience:
There was no pressure to get additional procedures done, and the staff were kind, which I liked.
β’ Procedure results:
I had non-incisional (natural adhesion) double eyelid surgery, epicanthoplasty (inner corner), lateral canthoplasty (outer corner), and eye-shape correction with in-out line at Pop Plastic Surgery. Recovery progressed faster than expected, and as time passed the line settled in naturally, which made me even more satisfied. There's almost no visible sign that I had surgery, and people around me have told me I look naturally prettier. The swelling wasn't severe either, so the recovery process was comfortable. Overall I'm very happy with the results and really satisfied.
β’ Additional comments:

Recovery went faster than expected, so getting back to daily life was easy, and as time passed the line settled in naturally, making me even more satisfied. I especially liked that the result feels clean and not overdone, so there's almost no visible sign of surgery, and the swelling wasn't severe either, which made things less of a burden. Overall I'm happy with the results and very satisfied.

β’ Reason for choosing this clinic:
I had been worried because the double-eyelid line I got done before had become faint.
β’ About the clinic:
Both the staff and the doctor were kind, and they explained in detail the design and surgical method I wanted.
β’ About the procedure:
On the day the surgery ended, I felt a slight pulling sensation around my eyes, but by the next day there was no problem. Fortunately I didn't get any bruising at all, and I was able to wear glasses and go about my normal life as usual!
β’ Overall impressions:
At Pop Plastic Surgery I had a double-eyelid revision surgery (natural adhesion method), eye shape correction, and inner corner (epicanthoplasty) surgery. During the consultation, the doctor in charge checked the condition of my eyes and my double-eyelid line very carefully and gave me caring, attentive advice, which made me feel I could trust them. I wanted my eyes to look clearer/more defined than before, but I went with an in-out line so it wouldn't look too flashy. There was swelling after the surgery, but since there was no internal bleeding I was able to wear glasses and live my normal life. The swelling went down quite a bit after about two weeks. The line came out the way I wanted, and I'm very satisfied. My eyes used to look sleepy, but now they look clear and big, which I really like. It's also made putting on makeup more enjoyable!

β’ Concern before treatment:
The double eyelid line from a previous surgery had thinned, which was a concern.
β’ Consultation experience:
Both the staff and the doctor were kind, and they explained the design and surgical method I wanted in great detail.
β’ Procedure result:
On the day of surgery there was some tightness(?) around the eyes, but it was fine the next day. Luckily I didn't get any bruising at all, so I was able to go about daily life wearing glasses!
β’ Additional comments:
I got double eyelid revision surgery (natural adhesion method), eye shape correction, and upper eyelid incision (front corner) surgery at Pop Plastic Surgery. At the consultation, the doctor in charge looked very carefully at my eye condition and double eyelid line and explained everything kindly, so I felt I could trust them. I wanted the result to look more defined than before but not too flashy, so we went with an in-out line approach. When I came out of surgery there was swelling, but no bruising, so I was able to go about daily life wearing glasses. After about 2 weeks the swelling had gone down a lot. It came out to the line I wanted, so I'm very satisfied. Before, my eyes looked sleepy, but now they look defined and bigger, which I really like. It's also made doing my makeup more fun!

β’ Concern before treatment:
I had incision-method surgery 10 years ago, and one eye loosened quickly. Even after touching it up with a Maemul (thread) procedure, it's loosening again. This made the asymmetric double-eyelid line bother me, so I decided to get revision surgery.
β’ Consultation experience:
During the consultation, they carefully advised me on the best approach considering my current eye shape and condition, which I really liked.
Since there are a lot of waiting patients, there's a bit of a wait even with a reservation.
β’ Procedure results:
I'm satisfied with the double-eyelid surgery. The bruising and swelling weren't severe and went down quickly, so it didn't cause much disruption to daily life. I actually went to work the very next day after surgery.
β’ Additional comments:
At Gangnam Pop Plastic Surgery, it was done with the semi-out line natural adhesion method, and since my eyes usually looked stuffy/heavy, I also had the outer and inner canthoplasty done together.
In the end, it turned out so well that all the time I spent agonizing over whether to get revision surgery feels almost pointless β I'm very satisfied!
I'd like to recommend this to anyone considering revision surgery for asymmetric double-eyelid lines.

β’ Reason for choosing this clinic:
I had double-eyelid (incision) surgery 10 years ago, but one eye loosened soon after, and even after correcting it with the non-incisional (buried suture) method, it has loosened again. Because of this, I became bothered by the asymmetry in the double-eyelid lines between my left and right eyes, and decided to go through with the re-do surgery.
β’ About the clinic:
During the consultation, they carefully discussed the best approach with me while taking my current eye shape and condition into account, which I really appreciated. Since there are many patients waiting, there is a bit of a wait even with an appointment.
β’ About the procedure:
I'm satisfied with the double-eyelid surgery. The bruising and swelling weren't severe and went down quickly, so it didn't cause major disruption to daily life. In fact, I went to work the very next day after the surgery.
β’ Overall impressions:
I had semi-outline natural adhesion (double-eyelid) surgery at Gangnam Pop Plastic Surgery. Since my eyes usually looked heavy, I also had outer canthoplasty and lower eyelid canthoplasty done at the same time.
As a result, the outcome was so satisfying that it made all the time I spent hesitating over the re-do surgery feel meaningless!
I'd recommend this to anyone struggling with asymmetry in their double-eyelid lines and considering a re-do surgery.
