Closed Sundays.
What Happens on Liposuction Day in Korea?
Once you decide to have liposuction in Korea, the day of surgery is what makes most people nervous: what time to arrive, what happens, where you rest afterwards, and whether you will understand the staff.
This guide uses RE:SLIM Clinic in Sinnonhyeon, Seoul as an example and sets out the day's schedule and preparation in one place. Knowing what comes next makes it much less stressful.
Liposuction Korea Day Schedule: All in One Day

According to RE:SLIM Clinic, the consultation, pre-op tests and surgery can be scheduled on the same day, and you rest in a private recovery room before leaving.
From consultation to surgery, Director Lee Jun-woo (이준우) personally handles your case 1:1. The clinic schedules only 2 surgeries per day, so there is no rushing to the next patient.
How long each step takes and what time you arrive depend on your procedure, so please confirm both when you book.
Before You Arrive: Fasting and Documents
The most important thing on the morning of surgery is to fast as the clinic instructs. The clinic will tell you when to stop eating and drinking when you book. Follow it exactly, and ask again if you are unsure.
Check these before you leave:

- List of medications and supplements: tell the clinic what you are taking, including prescription drugs you brought from home.
- Loose, front-opening clothes: you will wear a compression garment afterwards, and pull-over tops are awkward.
- Passport and flight details: tell the doctor your return date at the consultation.
Consultation and Tests: No Language Worries
RE:SLIM Clinic offers Chinese and Japanese language support in the clinic, so pre-op checks and aftercare instructions can be explained clearly.
Even with support, it helps to write down your questions and go through them in the room:
- How far will the treated area extend on my body?
- How long will the surgery take, and how long do I rest in the recovery room?
- How long do I wear the compression garment?
- I fly home on a certain date. Is this plan OK?
- How do I request to view the operating-room CCTV footage?
The last question is a RE:SLIM feature: the operating room has CCTV, and you can request to view the footage. If you want that, ask how it works on the day.

After Surgery: A Private Recovery Room
After surgery you rest in a private recovery room, not in a corridor or shared space. You leave once you are ready to go.
After you leave, wear the compression garment and rest fully, as the doctor instructs. A few practical tips:
- Do not plan anything else for that day. Go straight back to your accommodation.
- Take a taxi from the clinic to your accommodation, with less walking and fewer transfers.
- Get food ready near your accommodation beforehand so you do not need to go out again.
- If you are travelling alone, save your accommodation address on your phone so you can show the driver.
