I had lower eyelid fat repositioning surgery at Hanmi in Apgujeong. First of all, the director has a very firm style. Just from calling lower eyelid fat repositioning “lower eyelid fat transfer surgery,” you can tell they’re very firm about their own procedure.
The story in the BEST comment is the most accurate. They dislike people who can’t understand what they’re saying, and if they think surgery won’t go well, they don’t recommend it. To some people that may seem rude, but personally I like that honesty. If it’s yes, it’s yes; if it’s no, it’s no. I actually prefer being told they won’t do it if they think they might mess up.
The biggest advantage is that the director has a very long career. As far as I know, it’s over 20 years, and it’s rare to find someone with such a long career from Myeong-dong all the way to current Apgujeong.
The surgery took about an hour and was done under local anesthesia. During the consultation, they may feel a bit unfriendly, but once the surgery starts, they become kind because you’re their patient. They even talked to me to help me not get nervous, though I was still very nervous.
I don’t know about other surgeries, but I do recommend lower eyelid fat repositioning.
That said, I hope the manager could be a little kinder to patients. It’s a one-doctor clinic and I know the manager also goes into the operating room and is busy, but if the director has a slightly unfriendly style, it would be nice if the manager could kindly make up for it.
