Liposuction Korea: Weekday or Saturday? De:Light Hours

De:Light Surgery in Gangnam, Seoul is open Monday–Friday 10:00–19:00 (no lunch break) and Saturday 10:00–16:00, and closed on Sundays and public holidays. Because consultation, pre-op tests and surgery can all be done on the same day, a weekday morning slot gives you the most time; Saturday ends at 16:00. Confirm your flight time with the doctor at the consultation.
De:Light Surgery's weekly schedule
De:Light Surgery is open Monday–Friday 10:00–19:00 (no lunch break) and Saturday 10:00–16:00. It is closed on Sundays and public holidays.
The lack of a lunch break matters when consultation, pre-op tests and surgery all happen on the same day: your day is not cut in half.

Why a weekday is the better choice
At De:Light, consultation, pre-op tests and surgery can be completed on the same day. The more time you have to get through those steps, the better.
A weekday gives you 9 hours (10:00–19:00); Saturday gives you only 6 (10:00–16:00). How long surgery takes depends on the area and extent, and the price list does not say, so ask the doctor at your consultation. For larger areas, a weekday is the safer choice.
Three ways to schedule it
Option A: weekday surgery, arrive the night before. Fly into Seoul the evening before and stay near Gangnam Station. The next morning you arrive at 10:00 opening time and go from consultation to surgery. The clinic is a 1-minute walk from Gangnam Station Exit 10, so there is no morning rush.
Option B: Friday surgery, rest over the weekend. After a Friday procedure the weekend is left free for rest, since the clinic is closed on Sunday. Ask the doctor about your return flight time.
Option C: Saturday surgery. You arrive at 10:00 and everything must finish by 16:00. This suits smaller areas, or cases where the doctor confirms at the consultation that it is feasible.


Avoid public holidays
The clinic is closed on Sundays and public holidays. 25 December 2026 (Christmas) and 1 January 2027 both fall on a Friday and are Korean public holidays, so the clinic is closed. If you travel at the turn of the year, avoid flying in on those two days. For other years and lunar holidays, check the dates before you book flights.

Return flight: ask the doctor first
You will need to wear a compression garment after surgery, so confirm your flight time with the doctor. Don't book the return flight first and discover later that it is too tight. Tell K-Clinic your planned dates and we will check with the clinic together with you.
The address is 12F, 407 Gangnam-daero, Seocho-gu, Seoul, a 1-minute walk from Gangnam Station Exit 10. Prices include VAT.
