Heavy eyelids are not just about "wanting a double eyelid"
Eyelids that feel heavy in the morning, a tired look, a sense that your eyes will not open wide: many people think of double eyelid surgery. But on DOY JUN Plastic Surgery's price list, eye surgery is not only double eyelid; there are also eye shape correction and ptosis correction.
This article sets out the prices, the amounts with tax and the questions to ask for the three approaches. Whether you have ptosis is for the doctor to judge after examination; we do not draw that conclusion for you.
Price comparison of the three approaches
- Eye shape correction (non-incisional): ₩973,500 before tax, ₩1,070,850 with tax.
- Ptosis correction (incisional eye shape correction): ₩1,485,000 before tax, ₩1,633,500 with tax.
- Incisional double eyelid: ₩1,335,000 before tax, ₩1,468,500 with tax.
The difference between eye shape correction and ptosis correction on the price list is "non-incisional" versus "incisional", a ₩511,500 gap before tax.
Also on the price list is natural-adhesion double eyelid (non-incisional) at ₩375,000. Whether double eyelid or eye shape correction suits your concern should be decided after the doctor has seen you.
Who suits which? Do not decide on your own
The price list shows only the method and does not say which symptoms suit which surgery. Heavy eyelids can have different causes, and comparing yourself online makes it easy to choose wrongly.
At DOY JUN, the attending surgeon meets you from the consultation onward to confirm the surgical method, anesthesia and cost. Representative director Lee Seung-jun specializes in eyes, nose, lifting, liposuction and fat grafting; the hospital has 3 board-certified plastic surgeons who consult by area.
Recovery: ask about what the website does not say
The website's recovery information covers only double eyelid: about 3 days to 1 week for natural-adhesion and about 1–2 weeks for incisional, both with stitches out after 3–5 days and 2–3 follow-up visits.
The recovery period and stitch-removal time for eye shape correction and ptosis correction are not listed on the website. If your trip is only a few days, you must ask this before booking; do not estimate from the double eyelid days.
On anesthesia, the website says double eyelid uses local or sleep anesthesia; the price list shows sleep at ₩195,000 and general at ₩585,000 (before tax), and whether it is charged depends on the procedure.
If you want to combine other procedures
The price list also has canthoplasty at ₩450,000 and under-eye fat repositioning at ₩885,000 (both before tax). People with heavy eyelids are often bothered by other things around the eyes too, but whether they can be done in one operation and whether the anesthesia fee is counted twice is not on the price list.
Before surgery, please tell the hospital about any medication you take (especially blood thinners) and your past surgical history.
Getting to the hospital
The hospital is at Urban Hive Building, 12F, 476 Gangnam-daero, Gangnam-gu, Seoul, and Exit 3 of Sinnonhyeon Station (Line 9) connects to the building through an underground passage. Hours are Monday to Friday 10:00–19:00 and Saturday 10:00–17:00 (no lunch break), closed on Sundays.
