What recent patients say
5.0 / 5 · 46 Google reviewsI’ve got my undereye fat repositioning, lower bleph, fat grafting, and skin treatments done here and I’m truly satisfied with everything so far. :) Honestly, the recovery took way less than I expected and the whole process felt so smooth. The consultants, my surgeon(dr. Kim), and all the staff are super considerate and kind. Even though I was being pretty anxious about the whole thing, they were always there to calm me down and made sure to answer every single one of my questions in detail. I never felt rushed or brushed off, which I really appreciated. They also checked on me throughout the whole process, which made me feel really taken care of. It’s clear they genuinely care about their patients and not just trying to sell. I’d definitely recommend Onyoo to anybody who’s thinking about getting anything done while in Korea. 10/10 experience, no regrets at all!
I had an endoscoptic brow lift and mid face done. I’m about 5 weeks post op and love my results. I look more rejuvenated. Most importantly I still look like my self. The results look very natural. Dr Ahn and Dr Kim did amazing. The staff at Onyoo are very welcoming and the hospitality is outstanding.
I had the best experience with my first ever plastic surgery ever! So I went to many clinic for consultations and I was most impressed with Onyoo Clinic. They took their time asking me what I want, what they recommend, and what my results would be like realistically. The doctor took so long explaining the surgeries to me and what I should expect and that I shouldn’t expect unrealistic results. This made me trust them so much because they didn’t try to sell me an unachievable look. I love my results post op 10 days. I was able to message them anytime of the day through WatsApp which gave me a piece of mind knowing I could always reach them with questions. My recovery was fast, the bruising and swelling was 90 percent gone by day 12. I will be going back for me to Onyoo picnic whether that’s dermatology or for more plastic surgery because I trust them! -I had buccal fat removal, chin liposuction, SMAS lifting, and under eye fat grafting. I was not sponsored, I paid for my surgery my self and am so happy for the results 🥰🥰🥰
I’m very happy with my results—the outcome truly speaks for itself. I had a **SMAS mid-face lift**, and my skin now feels noticeably tighter and more lifted. I also had **PRP with fat grafting**, which made my skin look fuller and more plump overall. The doctor really listened to my concerns and took the time to understand what I wanted. He made me feel very comfortable and confident throughout the entire process. I also want to mention the counselor, who was incredibly kind and sweet. She made me feel well taken care of from start to finish. Overall, it was a very positive experience, and I’m grateful to the team for their professionalism and care. ✨

Dr. Yoo's Surgical Approach
The deep plane facelift is defined by its work beneath the SMAS, the layer of muscle and connective tissue that shapes the lower face. Surgeons who perform this technique release and reposition deeper structures rather than pulling on skin alone.
