Fat Repositioning FAQ at ROI Plastic

This is not medical advice and I am not a doctor. Just sharing information from my personal experience.

Q: Where did you do your eyebag surgery?

A: ROI Plastic Surgery in Seoul, Korea with Dr. You. He is the only surgeon at the clinic, speaks English, and there are translators on staff.

Q: What procedures did you get and how much did it cost?

A: I had under eye fat repositioning and fat grafting. The total cost was approximately 2 million KRW. I did not do a full lower blepharoplasty and the cost for that is different. Dr You also did my endoscopic forehead lift and non incisional double eyelid surgery.

Q: Can I get a discount if I mention your name?

A: Yes-You can receive special pricing if you use my name (Sara Yoon) as a referral.

Q: What if I need a full lower blepharoplasty (skin cut)?

A: If a full lower blepharoplasty (skin cut) is needed, the price will differ. It’s best to confirm with the clinic directly during consultation. In this case, there will be external stitches beneath the lower lash line and they will need to be removed around day 7 post op. This is usually recommended when there is excess skin/sagginess/wrinkles in the undereye area.

Q: How can I contact ROI Plastic Surgery for a consultation?

  • Best contact method: KakaoTalk
  • What’s app is also available but response may be slower.
  • When messaging, mention in first sentence if you plan to schedule surgery within 1–3 weeks.
  • Avoid sending long messages; send one message only, as multiple messages push your inquiry to the back of the queue.
  • Response times may take up to 3 days and are answered in the order received.

Q: Where can I find more information about your experience?

A: I’ve shared more details and updates on my Instagram highlights @madeinkorea_____

Q: Does Dr You perform any other surgeries?

A: Yes. Aside from upper and lower eye surgeries (upper/lower blepharoplasty, double eyelid surgery, ptosis repair), he also does forehead lifts (I did mine with him this year), full deep plane face lifts, mini lifts, chin/neck lifts.

Q: What is the closest subway station to ROI Plastic Surgery?

A: The closest subway station is Sinsa Station.

Q: Do they have translators on site?

A: Yes, ROI Plastic Surgery has translators available and Dr You speaks English.

Q: What type of anesthesia is used for the under-eye (eyebag) procedure?

A: The under-eye (eyebag)/fat repositioning surgery is performed under sleep sedation.

Q: How long should I stay in Korea after surgery?

A: If you’re doing just under-eye fat rearranging, you can manage with about 5 days in Korea. However, if you’re having a full lower blepharoplasty (skin cut), you’ll need at least 9 days in Korea since stitches are usually removed around day 7.

Best to wear/bring button up or zip up tops if doing facial surgeries. Sunglasses, masks can be helpful too :)

The Operating room is usually cold. Before they sedate you, you will get strapped into the table for safety purposes and a lot of iodine solution is used on your body for disinfecting purposes. I’m just mentioning this part because it can be jarring for someone’s first experience ><

  • Day 2–3: Swelling peaks; bruising may appear.
  • Day 9–10: Most swelling subsides; appearance looks normal to others.
  • Swelling fully resolves anywhere from 1-4 months. Tightness under eyes may persist for 5–6 weeks.
  • With fat grafting, final results are typically seen after 3 months.
