Which facelift do you need? Start with where you sag, not your age
When your face starts to sag, the right procedure depends on where the sagging is most noticeable. The forehead, upper eyelids, under-eye area, cheeks and jawline, and neck are separate items on the DOY JUN Plastic Surgery price list.
Around age 40, many people look in the mirror and feel their whole face is dropping, and the first thought is a full facelift. In practice, brows pressing down, eyelids covering the eyes, puffy under-eyes, blurred nasolabial folds and jawline, and lines on the neck are problems in different places. This article matches those five areas to the items on DOY JUN Plastic Surgery's price list so you know what to ask before your consultation.
Facelift cost in Korea: five areas matched to the price list
On DOY JUN Plastic Surgery's price list, the forehead and brows correspond to an endoscopic forehead lift at ₩3,135,000, drooping upper eyelids to ptosis correction at ₩1,485,000, the under-eye area to under-eye fat repositioning at ₩885,000, the cheeks and jawline to a mini facelift at ₩1,185,000, and the neck to a neck lift at ₩2,985,000, all excluding VAT.
- Forehead and brows: endoscopic forehead lift (with Endotine) ₩3,135,000, or ₩3,448,500 with VAT
- Drooping upper eyelids: ptosis correction (open-incision eyelid correction) ₩1,485,000, or ₩1,633,500 with VAT
- Under-eye area: under-eye fat repositioning ₩885,000, or ₩973,500 with VAT
- Cheeks and jawline: mini facelift (deep cheek contouring) ₩1,185,000, or ₩1,303,500 with VAT; Mint thread lift, 4 threads (basic) ₩540,000, or ₩594,000 with VAT
- Neck: neck lift ₩2,985,000, or ₩3,283,500 with VAT
This is a match between areas and price list items, not a diagnosis. For example, upper eyelids that look droopy may be caused by the position of the brow or by the eyelid itself, and the surgeon decides which procedure applies after examining you.
Hollow or thinning cheeks: fat grafting is a separate item
If your concern is hollowness rather than sagging, DOY JUN Plastic Surgery's price list also includes full-face fat grafting at ₩885,000 (₩973,500 with VAT), not including the upper eyelids and under-eye area.
Sagging and hollowness often appear together. Whether you need lifting, fat grafting or both, describe all your concerns at the consultation so the surgeon can evaluate them together.
Full facelift price in Korea: the neck lift adds ₩2,235,000
At DOY JUN Plastic Surgery, a full facelift costs ₩7,500,000 without a neck lift and ₩9,735,000 with a neck lift, both excluding VAT. With 10% VAT, that is ₩8,250,000 and ₩10,708,500.
The difference is ₩2,235,000 (₩2,458,500 with VAT). Compared with the stand-alone neck lift at ₩2,985,000, this is ₩750,000 less (₩825,000 with VAT). That is only arithmetic from the price list. Whether you need the full face and whether to include the neck is decided by the surgeon after examining your face and neck.
Anesthesia and recovery time: what the price list and website don't say
The price list lists sedation anesthesia at ₩195,000 and general anesthesia at ₩585,000 (excluding VAT; ₩214,500 and ₩643,500 with VAT). Whether it is charged separately depends on the procedure, and the website does not list recovery times for lifting procedures.
DOY JUN Plastic Surgery has an anesthesiologist on site, and uses local, sedation or general anesthesia depending on the procedure. Surgery is recorded on CCTV. The same attending surgeon handles your consultation, surgery and recovery, and a dedicated recovery team helps with pain, swelling and scar care.
How many days you need to stay in Korea, and when stitches are removed and follow-up visits happen, is decided by the surgeon after examination, based on the procedure and your recovery. K-Clinic recommends telling the clinic your planned departure date when you book, so the surgeon can explain this at your consultation.
What to ask at your facelift consultation in Korea
The price list only answers "how much." Which area to treat, whether procedures can be combined, the type of anesthesia and the length of stay all need to be confirmed at the consultation.
- Where is my most noticeable sagging?
- Should I do one area at a time or combine them? Can they be done together, and how is the cost calculated?
- Which type of anesthesia will be used, and is the anesthesia fee charged separately?
- When are stitches removed and follow-up visits scheduled, and how many days do I need to stay?
Please tell the clinic at your consultation about any medication you take (especially anticoagulants) and your surgical history.

Frequently asked questions
Do I need a full facelift in Korea if my face is starting to sag?
Not necessarily. DOY JUN Plastic Surgery's price list separates the forehead, upper eyelids, under-eye area, cheeks and jawline, and neck into different procedures. A board-certified plastic surgeon decides whether a single area or the full face is right after examining where and how much you sag.

How many days do I need to stay in Korea after a facelift?
