Seoul Gangnam Etonne Plastic Surgery | Practical Guide for Tourists Considering Breast Augmentation and Double Eyelid Surgery in South Korea in 2026
[Introduction] What pitfalls did I encounter on my first trip to South Korea for plastic surgery?
To be honest, before deciding to go to South Korea for plastic surgery, I hesitated for a full three months. My friends all said that South Korea offered excellent plastic surgery techniques and good value for money, but as a foreigner, I didn’t speak the local language and didn’t understand the local market conditions. What if something went wrong? I read hundreds of guides just to find a hospital, and finally, I settled on Etonne Plastic Surgery.
The reason I chose this clinic is very simple: transparency. The prices are transparent, the backgrounds of the doctors are clear, and so are the post-operative results. As a foreign tourist visiting South Korea for the first time, my biggest fear was facing information asymmetry and becoming a victim of unfair practices. However, my actual experience at this clinic proved that it truly shattered all my preconceptions about plastic surgery in South Korea.
The following is my comprehensive firsthand experience as a tourist, updated in 2026, to serve as a reference for sisters who also consider undergoing plastic surgery in South Korea.
1. Basic Information about the Clinic
ETONNE Plastic Surgery is located at 563 Gangnam-daero, Seocho-gu, Seoul, and is only about a 5-minute walk from the Sillywon subway station. The clinic was founded by a plastic surgery expert who graduated from Seoul National University and has many years of clinical experience in procedures such as Double eyelid surgery, Rhinoplasty, Breast Augmentation, and Lifting to remove wrinkles.
Basic Information Overview:
Tip for tourists: It’s recommended to make reservations in advance through BeautsGO to avoid any language barriers. I made my reservation directly through the app, and it saved me a lot of trouble.
2. Price comparison of popular treatments
When it comes to prices, this is certainly the topic that everyone is most interested in. According to the latest data from 2026, the prices of ETONNE’s popular packages are as follows (unit: Korean won):
Reminders regarding exchange rate fluctuations: In 2026, the exchange rate between the Korean won and the Taiwanese dollar is expected to fluctuate within the range of 1:45 to 1:48. It is recommended to check the latest exchange rates before departure.
To be honest, compared with Taiwan and Hong Kong, the prices of plastic surgery in South Korea are indeed more competitive. However, “cheap” does not necessarily mean “inexpensive”. The pricing at ETONNE is considered on the higher end in the Gangnam area, but the skills of the doctors and the post-operative services make me feel that the money is well spent.
3. Expert Team and Technological Strength
When choosing a plastic surgery hospital, the qualifications of the doctors are a key consideration. The director of ETONNE graduated from the School of Medicine at Seoul National University, which is a highly credible academic background in South Korea’s plastic surgery industry.
The hospital emphasizes the surgical philosophy of “safety and naturalness,” avoiding exaggerated results in favor of personalized treatment plans tailored to each patient’s unique characteristics. This approach is evident even during the pre-operative consultation—the director doesn’t aggressively promote expensive procedures but instead provides objective advice based on your facial features.
I have friends who went to other hospitals for restoration procedures simply because they didn’t choose the right doctor the first time. Therefore, it is truly crucial to choose a hospital that has qualified and experienced doctors.
4. My personal experience throughout the entire process

- Search for “ETONNE Plastic Surgery” on the app.

The advantage is that it has a Chinese interface, so there is no need to worry about language issues when making calls.
#### The Experience at the Store
Upon arrival at the clinic, I was greeted by a dedicated staff member, and the environment was very clean and comfortable. After filling out some basic information, I waited for about 15 minutes before meeting with the director of the clinic. The consultation lasted approximately 20 minutes during which the director carefully analyzed my eye conditions and explained the advantages and disadvantages of different surgical options to me.
Throughout the entire process, no one tried to push expensive services on me, and that really impressed me.
#### On the day of the surgery
The surgery was scheduled for the third day after the appointment and lasted approximately 1.5 hours. After the operation, the patient was monitored for 2 hours, and the nursing staff provided detailed instructions on postoperative care. The recovery period is roughly 7 to 10 days, during which a dedicated person will monitor the patient’s progress.
5. Effect feedback and recovery period
In the first week after the procedure, there may be slight swelling, which is a normal phenomenon. By around the 10th day, about 80% of the swelling will have subsided, and by two weeks, the area will have largely returned to its natural state. The final result will become apparent one month after the surgery, with smooth and natural lines – friends around you will hardly notice that any treatment was done at all.
In terms of post-operative services, etonne offers free follow-up care, and customers can contact them if they have any questions. This is particularly important for foreign tourists, as they can still contact the hospital through BeautsGO if they encounter any issues after returning to Taiwan.
