7 Best Double Eyelid Surgery Clinics in Gangnam, Seoul (2026)

Girin Plastic Surgery Korea leads this ranking on the strength of its public record: a 4.9-star average across 2,824 Google reviews, more than three times the review base of any other clinic on this list except DA Plastic Surgery. In a category where marketing claims are loud and hard to verify, a large, consistent public review sample is one of the few signals a visitor can check independently before ever contacting a clinic. That is what we weighted here, and it is worth being clear that Girin books directly — it is not reachable through our platform.

A large sample matters more for eyelid surgery than the star figure alone. A 4.9 average across a handful of reviews can shift overnight; the same average across thousands of reviews describes a pattern sustained over many patients and a long period. It still does not tell you which technique fits your anatomy, how the clinic handles revision questions, or whether the consultation will happen in a language you can consent in — those are consultation-room questions at any clinic, this one included.

Whichever clinic you shortlist, the sequence is the same: consultation first, dates second. Eyelid technique, expected swelling stages, and how long you should stay in Seoul are individual assessments, and no clinic can confirm them from photos alone.

View Plastic Surgery holds a 4.9-star average across 826 reviews, and Sketch Plastic Surgery Korea carries a 5.0-star average across 511 — the largest perfect-score sample in this ranking. DA Plastic Surgery on Teheran-ro rates 4.8 stars across 1,523 reviews, Wonderful Plastic Surgery Clinic holds 4.8 stars across 1,084, Eye&Lifting Plastic Surgery Clinic rates 4.9 stars across 441, and EYEHO Plastic Surgery Clinic on Nonhyeon-ro 167-gil holds 4.9 stars across 389.

Double eyelid surgery is usually described in two technique families, and knowing the vocabulary makes any consultation more useful. Non-incisional methods — often called suture or buried techniques — create the fold with fine internal stitches through small openings, and clinics generally frame them as the lighter procedure in terms of initial swelling. Incisional methods create the fold through an incision along the planned crease line, which also lets the surgeon adjust skin or fat where the anatomy calls for it. Neither is universally better: eyelid thickness, skin laxity, and the fold shape you are asking for all push the choice one way or the other, and that assessment belongs to a surgeon examining your eyes in person, not to a list.

Plan the trip around recovery, not the procedure day. Visible swelling is part of the first weeks with either technique, incisional approaches typically involve stitch removal within about the first week, and a clinic will want to see the eyes settling before you fly. That points to an itinerary measured in one to two weeks at minimum for most visitors, with the exact schedule confirmed by the clinic — not assumed from a blog post.
