13 most popular procedures at WJ Wonjin Plastic Surgery
All 13 core services and surgical techniques at WJ Wonjin Plastic Surgery, ranked by the number of real cases and clips the hospital publishes, each linked to its before & after set.
- 1
Incision double eyelid surgery
One of the most widely used techniques: the surgeon incises along the designed fold line and removes excess fat and skin, producing a defined, long-lasting crease — ideal for thicker eyelids.

Non-incision double eyelid surgery (buried suture)
A buried-suture technique that creates the double-eyelid fold with sutures instead of an incision, leaving virtually no scar and minimal swelling. Wonjin's suture pattern is designed to reduce the risk of the fold loosening later.

Epicanthoplasty (inner corner)
Releases the inner-corner fold so the eye looks longer and the inter-eye distance narrower; usually combined with double-eyelid surgery for a continuous fold.
6 real cases · 3 clips · 1 Q&A
- 4
Ptosis correction surgery
Corrects a weak levator muscle that makes the eyes look sleepy and half-open, tightening the muscle so the eye opens wider while shaping a balanced double fold.

Technique-specific questions at WJ Wonjin Plastic Surgery
Answers come from the hospital's own published material; each one links straight to the before & after set for that technique.
Incision double eyelid surgery: How is it different from the non-incision method?
The incision method removes excess fat and skin for a sharper, more durable fold, but recovery takes longer.
Incision double eyelid surgery: Will the scar be visible?
The scar sits inside the fold, is barely visible when the eyes are open, and fades over a few months.
Non-incision double eyelid surgery (buried suture): Is it painful, and what anaesthesia is used?
Local anaesthesia with short-acting sedation is used, so patients generally feel no pain during the procedure.
Non-incision double eyelid surgery (buried suture): Is the fold permanent?
Wonjin's suture technique is designed to hold firmly with a low loosening rate, though the incision method remains more permanent for some eyelid types.
Epicanthoplasty (inner corner): Must it be combined with double-eyelid surgery?
Not always, but the two are usually combined so the fold flows naturally and the eye proportions balance.
Ptosis correction surgery: Will both eyes match?
The surgeon adjusts each side and checks during surgery, though the eyes may look temporarily uneven while swollen.
Revision rhinoplasty: How long should I wait after my last surgery?
At least six months is generally advised so scar tissue and soft tissue can settle before revision.
Rhinoplasty for a low nasal bridge: Implant or cartilage — which is better?
Most cases combine both: implant or cartilage on the bridge, with the patient's own cartilage at the tip to reduce the risk of extrusion.
Complex facial contouring (cheekbone + jaw + chin): Are there external scars?
No — the entire operation is performed through incisions inside the mouth.
Complex facial contouring (cheekbone + jaw + chin): Will the numbness go away?
It is usually temporary, caused by swelling pressing on the nerve, and improves over a few months.
Wonjin dermatology & laser clinic: When can I have laser treatment after surgery?
It depends on the operation and wound status; doctors usually assess at least a month after the wound has healed.
Breast augmentation: Can I breastfeed after augmentation?
Breastfeeding is generally still possible depending on the incision and implant plane; discuss it with your surgeon beforehand.
Facial fat grafting: How many sessions are needed?
One session is usually enough; if absorption is high, a second session after 3-6 months may be considered.
Liposuction body contouring: Will the fat come back?
Removed fat cells do not return, but the remaining cells can enlarge with weight gain, so ongoing care matters.
Two-jaw (orthognathic) surgery: Is orthodontics always required first?
Almost every case needs pre-surgical orthodontics for correct post-operative occlusion, except selected surgery-first cases.
WINT thread lifting: How long do results last?
Typically 1-2 years, depending on thread type, skin age and aftercare.
