JK Plastic Surgery Center
It is a private boutique plastic surgery clinic, founded in 2018, in the Seocho district of Seoul, South Korea- close to the Gangnam Station. It is headed by the CEO and Chief Surgeon, Dr. Young Min Im, a board-certified plastic surgeon with a Ph.D. in Plastic Surgery at the Catholic University which attended Seoul St. Mary hospital and he is presently an Associate Professor at the university. Dr. Im has a global reputation as an expert in facelift surgery and revision rhinoplasty, ranked number 100 in the list of the 100 Good Doctors listed by Korea Economic Daily in 2022. With JCI/ ISO accreditation, licensed by the Ministry of Health and Welfare in the Medical Korea program to treat international patients and over 50,000 surgeries done since its emergence, the clinic stands out as a unique model of exceptional quality in delivering healthcare services. --- ### Medical Specialties The clinic has a diverse aesthetic and reconstructive surgery with specialization in facelift and deep plane facelift, rhinoplasty (including those in revision and functional rhinoplasty conducted by a dedicated otorhinolaryngologist), eye surgery (double eyelid and canthoplasty and blepharoplasty), facial contouring, breast surgery, body contouring and liposuction as well as non- Surgical procedures are also supported with 3D-CT scanning to do the pre-operational planning, real-time anesthesia monitoring, pre-operative hyperbaric oxygen therapy to boost the recovery in patients, and ERAS (Enhanced Recovery After Surgery) so that the recovery takes shorter time compared to other methods. In order to ensure that it maintains a high standard of care, the clinic limits the number of procedures to three surgeries per day. --- ### International Patient Services VG Plastic Surgery treats clients across more than 47 nations, and designing the complete model to meet the requirements of the international patients, being able to offer: - Multilingual coordination in English, Chinese and Japanese, Russian, Chinese and Thai among others. - Airport transfers and accommodation plan with partner quality hotels of medical standards. - Visa processing and pre- arrival online consultancy. - 1-year in-service aftercare, consisting of online follow-ups and correction of the results. --- ### Patient Experience VG Plastic Surgery found its care approach within the personalized 1:1 philosophy, where Dr. Im himself takes part in most complex surgeries and has the entire surgical group work towards the philosopher of natural and artistically balanced outcomes. International patients have multilingual coordinators at all levels of their stay, which interfere in maintaining the contact and emotional support of both patients and family members during the first consultation and up to the post-operative recovery period.

I had breast augmentation at VG Plastic Surgery. Dr. Im helped me choose a size that fit my frame perfectly. He is very attentive and kind during post-op checkups. The clinic environment is clean, modern, and very welcoming for foreigners.
As an international patient from Canada, the coordination at VG was seamless. Dr. Im's consultation was thorough, and he used 3D imaging to show me exactly how my jawline would change. He is clearly a master of facial harmony.
After a bad experience elsewhere, I went to Dr. Im for a revision nose job. He is a 'doctor's doctor.' He prioritized the structural integrity of my nose over just aesthetics. He is very honest about what can be achieved, and I finally feel like myself again.
I had eyelid surgery (blepharoplasty) with Dr. Im in January. He has a very artistic eye. My eyes look brighter and refreshed, but my friends back home can't even tell I had surgery—they just think I've been sleeping better! The recovery was smooth and the clinic is state-of-the-art.
I traveled from the UK for a facelift and revision rhinoplasty. Dr. Im is incredibly calm and professional. He explained the SMAS technique in detail and ensured my results didn't look 'pulled.' The staff at VG Plastic Surgery spoke perfect English, which made the 2026 travel process so much easier.
