Key Takeaways
For foreign patients visiting a clinic in Gangnam-gu, language support varies by clinic, so confirm availability by phone or through the clinic’s booking page before you book. Ask whether an English-speaking consultation is possible and what you should bring, such as your ID or passport, a list of medications, and any relevant medical records. If you need an interpreter, ask in advance whether one can be arranged and whether there are any associated requirements.
In the provided reviews, the clinics where liposuction-related experiences can be checked in detail are 더라인성형외과의원 (The Line Plastic Surgery Clinic) and 라인앤뷰의원 (Line and View Clinic). 더라인성형외과의원 has reviews for abdominal, love handle, and arm liposuction, with a Google rating of 4.9 and 549 Naver reviews. 라인앤뷰의원 has reviews about arm and thigh liposuction consultations, with a Kakao rating of 4.6, a Google rating of 5, and 491 Naver reviews. However, reviews are individual experiences and do not guarantee results or recovery. Rather than deciding that a clinic is “good” based only on ratings and reviews, check the surgical scope, anesthesia, costs, and aftercare directly.
How We Analyzed
The provided collected data includes 2,340 Naver Place visitor reviews, 4,070 KakaoMap reviews, and Health Insurance Review and Assessment Service (HIRA) registration information. The average KakaoMap rating for the five selected clinics is summarized as 4.4. For each clinic, we compared the provided Naver, Kakao, and Google review counts, public ratings, actual visitor review text, address, transport access, hours, and amenities. Because duplicate reviews across platforms cannot be verified, the combined review counts were not interpreted as the number of users. For the number of plastic surgery specialists at each clinic, the HIRA information was provided as “No information” for all, so unverified figures were not included.
우리성형외과의원 (Woori Plastic Surgery Clinic)
우리성형외과의원 has a Kakao rating of 3.8 and a Google rating of 4.5, with 584 Naver reviews, 4,622 blog reviews, and 3,259 Kakao reviews provided. According to HIRA, the number of plastic surgery specialists is not available. The provided visitor reviews mainly cover experiences with procedures and surgeries other than liposuction, such as alar reduction, mini lift, and double eyelid surgery. Therefore, this data alone cannot be used to judge liposuction-related performance or expertise.
“I visited after looking into plastic surgery clinics in the Gangnam area, and the inside was clean and the wait was short, so I had a pleasant consultation.”
“The doctor’s touch in shaping the double eyelid line was truly delicate. It wasn’t overdone and was exactly the natural look I wanted.”
The address is 서울 강남구 테헤란로 312 비전타워 3·5·7·11·16·17층, 294m from Seolleung Station Exit 4. Hours are Mon, Tue, Wed, Thu, and Fri 10:00–19:00, and Sat 10:00–17:00. The provided schedule does not list Sunday hours or lunch breaks, and night-care hours are not confirmed. Reservations, parking, Wi-Fi, a waiting area, and separate men’s and women’s restrooms are listed. Before visiting, call 02-3446-0606 to confirm whether reservations are available, parking conditions, and whether same-day consultation and testing are possible. If you are considering liposuction, it is advisable to ask separately about the clinic’s experience by treatment area, how the amount to be removed is determined, the anesthesia method, and aftercare costs.
더라인성형외과의원 (The Line Plastic Surgery Clinic)
더라인성형외과의원 was provided with a Google rating of 4.9, 549 Naver reviews, 1,337 blog reviews, and 61 Google reviews. Kakao reviews are listed as 0, and a Kakao rating is not confirmed. According to HIRA, the number of plastic surgery specialists is listed as no information. The visitor reviews include experiences with abdominal, love handle, and arm liposuction, so among the five clinics presented, this is one where specific liposuction-related experiences can be checked relatively directly. However, the review content reflects the individual experience of the writer.
“After abdominal and love handle liposuction, recovery was faster than I expected, which was good. I’m satisfied that my lines look tidier.”
“I was concerned about my arm line, so I had arm liposuction and a lift procedure at The Line. It’s only one week after surgery and I’m still recovering, but so far I like the result.”
The address is 서울 강남구 가로수길 65 동남빌딩 4–6층, 754m from Apgujeong Station Exit 5. Hours are Mon, Tue, Wed, and Fri 09:30–18:45, and Sat 09:30–17:00. The provided schedule does not list Thursday or Sunday hours or lunch breaks, and night-care availability is not confirmed. Reservations, parking, valet parking, Wi-Fi, and separate men’s and women’s restrooms are listed. Book before visiting and confirm valet costs and whether parking is available. Because liposuction costs cannot be determined from reviews alone, it is practical to check item by item during the consultation whether the quote for each area includes the amount removed, anesthesia, compression garments, and aftercare costs.
스카이라인의원 (Skyline Clinic)
스카이라인의원 was provided with a Google rating of 5, 467 Naver reviews, 201 blog reviews, 25 Kakao reviews, and 8 Google reviews. A separate Kakao rating was not provided, and according to HIRA, the number of plastic surgery specialists is listed as no information. The provided reviews include both fat grafting consultations and liposuction consultations. Because some platforms have many reviews and others have few, it is difficult to judge superiority over other clinics based on ratings alone.
“I’ve known this director as someone who is really good at liposuction, so I followed them even after the clinic moved.”
“Both the consultation and the staff response were kind, and I liked that the director explained things in detail.”
The address is 서울 강남구 강남대로 488 9층, 160m from Sinnonhyeon Station Exit 3. Hours are Mon–Fri 10:00–19:00, and Sat 10:00–17:00. The provided schedule does not list Sunday hours or lunch breaks, and night-care availability is not confirmed. Reservations, parking, Wi-Fi, and separate men’s and women’s restrooms are listed. Check the booking method and parking conditions by calling 02-514-0488 or through the clinic’s information channel before visiting. In a liposuction consultation, do not assume that another person’s experience with a different area from the reviews applies directly to you; confirm your desired area, expected surgical scope, anesthesia, and recovery plan individually.
라인앤뷰의원 (Line and View Clinic)
라인앤뷰의원 has a Kakao rating of 4.6 and a Google rating of 5, with 491 Naver reviews, 2,409 blog reviews, 586 Kakao reviews, and 278 Google reviews provided. According to HIRA, the number of plastic surgery specialists is listed as no information. The visitor reviews include content about arm and thigh liposuction consultations, pre-surgery tests, anesthesia guidance, and aftercare guidance. Reviews about the consultation process can be used for reference, but they are not data that guarantee actual surgical results or recovery outcomes.
“I’m looking into arm liposuction. They explained not only the cost but also pre-surgery tests, anesthesia-related information, and aftercare.”
“I had a consultation for thigh liposuction, and they were kind.”
The address is 서울 강남구 도산대로 119 케이타워 12층, 79m from Sinsa Station Exit 8. Hours are Mon, Tue, Wed, and Thu 10:00–19:00, Fri 10:00–20:00, and Sat 10:00–16:00. Friday is listed as staying open later than other weekdays, but there is no separate notation for night care. Lunch breaks and Sunday hours are not in the provided data. Reservations, parking, valet parking, Wi-Fi, and a waiting area are listed, so confirm valet costs and available booking times in advance. For the arm or thigh area you are concerned about, checking the surgical scope, test items, anesthesia method, compression garments, and aftercare costs separately in the quote will help with comparison.
도이준성형외과의원 (Doijun Plastic Surgery Clinic)
도이준성형외과의원 has a Kakao rating of 4.7, with 249 Naver reviews, 2,355 blog reviews, 200 Kakao reviews, and 40 Google reviews provided. According to HIRA, the number of plastic surgery specialists is listed as no information. The provided liposuction-related reviews cover experiences of receiving double chin liposuction together with Renuvion. Because these cases are individual reviews, it cannot be concluded that the same results will appear for someone else, and the surgical scope or suitability offered by the clinic must be discussed in a direct consultation.
“I had double chin liposuction and Renuvion together. Once the swelling went down, the line under my chin looked cleaner.”
“My mother had liposuction and Renuvion because of sagging fat under her double chin. After the swelling went down, she was happy that her line looked tidier.”
The address is 서울 강남구 강남대로 476 12층, 16m from Sinnonhyeon Station Exit 3. Hours are Mon–Fri 10:00–19:00, and Sat 10:00–17:00. The provided schedule does not list Sunday hours or lunch breaks, and night-care availability is not confirmed. Reservations, a waiting area, Wi-Fi, simple payment, and parking are listed. You can confirm reservations and parking conditions by calling 02-511-7705. If you are considering double chin liposuction, check separately the necessity, cost, and recovery guidance for any procedure suggested alongside liposuction, and compare the total amount and optional items separately.

Liposuction Plastic Surgery Clinic Selection Checklist
- Surgical area and scope — Confirm which area—abdomen, thighs, arms, etc.—and what scope will be treated.
- Pre-surgery evaluation — Ask about the required tests and the process for deciding whether surgery is appropriate.
- Anesthesia method — Confirm in detail which methods, such as sedation or general anesthesia, are available and what related guidance is provided.
- Total cost items — Check whether costs based on the amount removed, tests, anesthesia, compression garments, and aftercare are included.
- Aftercare — Confirm follow-up visit schedules and the scope of care provided after surgery.
- Side effects and emergency response guidance — Ask about possible risks and how to contact or receive care if a problem occurs.
- Consultant and surgical explanation — Check who can confirm the surgical scope and plan and whether the explanation is sufficient.
- Review context — Check whether a review covers the same area and procedure as yours, when it was written, and the recovery period; do not rely on a single review.
- Booking, transport, and parking — Confirm how to finalize a booking, parking and valet costs, and the schedule for the day of your visit in advance.
Warning Signs to Watch For
- Costs and inclusions are unclear — If it is difficult to confirm the total amount, possible additional costs, and whether compression garments and aftercare are included in writing or written guidance, ask for a detailed breakdown first.
- They do not answer questions or delay sufficient explanation — It is important to hear answers about surgical scope, anesthesia, recovery, and risks before deciding.
- Explanations that guarantee results or ignore individual differences — Results in reviews cannot be assumed to appear the same way for you.
- They rush you to book without explaining your options — If you feel pressured to decide the same day, organize the consultation details and decide after further verification.
Frequently Asked Questions
When choosing a liposuction plastic surgery clinic in Gangnam-gu, what should I compare first?
Rather than looking only at ratings, compare the surgical area and scope, anesthesia method, pre-surgery tests, aftercare, and what is included in the cost. The provided reviews are individual experiences, so the surgical plan must be confirmed through a direct consultation.
What are the cost ranges for abdominal, thigh, and arm liposuction?
Reference ranges are KRW 2.5–5 million for the abdomen, KRW 3–6 million for the thighs, and KRW 2–3.5 million for the arms. Costs can vary depending on the amount removed and the anesthesia method (sedation or general anesthesia), and you should confirm whether compression garments and aftercare costs are included.
If a clinic has many reviews or a high rating, can I assume the surgical results are better?
That cannot be concluded. Review counts and ratings are user evaluations posted on platforms and do not guarantee individual surgical results. Check whether the review covers the same area as yours and compare the consultation details as well.
Can I check lunch hours or night care?
The provided hours do not list lunch breaks. The Line Plastic Surgery Clinic lists 09:30–18:45 on weekdays, or until 18:45 on Friday, and Line and View Clinic lists Friday until 20:00; however, no separate night-care notation is provided. Confirm with the clinic before visiting.
Where can I check the number of plastic surgery specialists?
In this dataset, the HIRA registration information lists the number of plastic surgery specialists for each clinic as “No information.” Because unverified numbers were not estimated, you must contact the clinic directly or check official registration information separately.
How can I check whether a clinic in Gangnam-gu offers an English-speaking consultation?
This comparison does not include language-support data for each clinic, so you must confirm directly. Call the clinic or check its booking page and ask whether an English-speaking staff member or interpreter is available for the consultation, and whether consent forms and aftercare instructions can be provided in English.
