Breast Augmentation Highlights
Motiva® Ergonomix Implants
We use Motiva Ergonomix® — the gold standard in premium implants. Their unique ergonomic design means they hold a teardrop shape when upright and shift to round when lying down, mimicking the natural movement of breast tissue for a lifelike feel.
Personalised Size & Shape Planning
No two patients are the same. Your surgeon analyses chest width, skin laxity, and body proportions to select the ideal implant volume — ensuring results that are balanced and proportionate to your frame, not just large.
Dual-Plane & Submuscular Placement
Choose from three incision locations — inframammary fold (under the breast), periareolar (around the nipple), or transaxillary (armpit). Each is selected to minimise visible scarring while providing the best surgical access for your case.
No-Touch Keller Funnel Technique
Your implant is inserted using the Keller Funnel no-touch method — a closed-system delivery that eliminates direct handling of the implant, significantly reducing the risk of contamination and capsular contracture.
3D Simulation Consultation
Before committing to any procedure, visualise your result. We use advanced 3D imaging technology during your consultation so you can explore different implant sizes and shapes and make an informed, confident decision.
Discreet Incision Options
Choose from three incision locations — inframammary fold (under the breast), periareolar (around the nipple), or transaxillary (armpit). Each is selected to minimise visible scarring while providing the best surgical access for your case.

Key Effects
Fuller, More Proportionate Volume
Whether you are looking to restore volume lost after pregnancy or weight changes, or simply want a more balanced silhouette, breast augmentation creates lasting fullness that works with — not against — your natural body shape. Most patients see their final settled result within 3 months of surgery.
Improved Symmetry and Shape
Natural breast asymmetry is extremely common. Implants can be selected in different sizes for each side to correct uneven volume, resulting in a noticeably more symmetrical appearance in clothing and swimwear.
Renewed Confidence and Body Image
Beyond the physical result, the most consistent feedback from our international patients is a significant improvement in confidence — in clothing, in swimwear, and in daily life. Korean surgeons are trained to prioritise proportionate, natural outcomes because dramatic results tend to attract unwanted attention rather than quiet confidence.

Procedure Process

Consultation & Planning
Your surgeon conducts a detailed physical assessment, reviews your medical history, and uses 3D simulation to help you visualise your result. Implant type, size, incision location, and placement depth are all agreed upon together before surgery is scheduled.
Recovery & Precaution
Breast Augmentation in Seoul, Korea
Week 1–2: Rest at home. Sleep on your back with upper body slightly elevated. Wear your medical compression bra at all times. Avoid lifting your arms above shoulder height.
Weeks 2–4: Light walking is encouraged. You may return to desk work and non-strenuous daily activities. Continue wearing your compression bra as instructed. Avoid driving for the first 2 weeks.
Weeks 4–6: Most swelling has resolved. You may begin light lower-body exercise. Upper body exercise and heavy lifting remain restricted until your surgeon's clearance.
Months 2–3: Implants settle into their final position. Breast shape softens and feels more natural. Attend your follow-up appointment — results are assessed and any remaining concerns addressed.
Flying home: International patients are advised to stay in Seoul for a minimum of 10–14 days before flying. Your surgeon will provide a medical summary letter for your home doctor.
Important: Avoid submerging incision sites in water (pool, sea, bath) for 4–6 weeks. Avoid alcohol and smoking for at least 2 weeks before and after surgery, as both significantly impair healing.
FAQ
Breast Augmentation in Seoul, Korea
How much does breast augmentation cost in Seoul, Korea?
Breast augmentation at The Beauty PS is priced based on implant type, surgical technique, and individual case complexity. We provide a detailed cost breakdown during your consultation. Korean clinics are generally significantly more affordable than equivalent procedures in the US, UK, or Australia, without any compromise in surgical quality.
Which breast implants do you use?
We primarily use Motiva Ergonomix® implants — among the most advanced available globally. They are CE-marked, FDA-registered, and designed to move naturally with the body, providing a realistic look and feel.
Is breast augmentation in Korea safe for foreigners?
Yes. The Beauty PS is staffed by board-certified plastic surgeons and equipped to care for international patients. We provide English-language consultations, pre- and post-operative documentation, and a medical summary letter for your home physician.
How long do I need to stay in Seoul after surgery?
We recommend staying a minimum of 10–14 days in Seoul after your procedure before flying home. This allows for your first follow-up check, suture assessment, and ensures you are safe to travel.
Will there be visible scarring after breast augmentation?
Incisions are placed in discreet locations — under the breast fold, around the areola, or in the armpit — and are closed using absorbable sutures and surgical skin glue. Scars typically fade significantly within 6–12 months and are not visible in clothing or swimwear.
