ABOUT KOWON
About the Clinic
Wholehearted about nose surgery. KOWON Plastic Surgery is a rhinoplasty-focused clinic near Sinsa Station in Gangnam, Seoul, dedicated to nose surgery alone.
Our Philosophy
“On your first visit,
we don't start by talking about surgery”
We first ask what bothers you, since when, and whether the concern is your own or something others have said. Only then can we judge what is actually needed. If surgery is warranted, we explain exactly what has to be done and how. If it is not, we explain why.
Three principles we keep
Proven by how we operate, not by advertising copy.
01
One surgeon, start to finish
A single lead surgeon takes responsibility for everything — consultation, surgery and aftercare.
02
Two operations a day, no more
We do not build a punishing schedule. Each case gets enough time and full attention.
03
CCTV in the operating room
The procedure is recorded openly. A process you can stand behind is what makes a result you can stand behind.
Our promises
01
A clinic other doctors refer to
The bar a doctor applies before sending their own friends is simple: the result was good, and the experience around it was comfortable. We keep meeting that bar.
02
Research for better outcomes
Plastic surgery is judged by its results. We keep studying and refining our surgical techniques to improve them.
03
Safety above everything
No surgical result means anything unless safety comes first. We maintain emergency equipment and monitoring systems, and operate strictly by protocol.
04
We won't recommend surgery you don't need
We do not recommend procedures that are unnecessary or unlikely to make a meaningful difference. If you don't need it, we tell you clearly why.
05
Truly one-to-one, from consultation to aftercare
Consultation, surgery, treatment and post-operative care are all carried out by Dr. Kim Hyung-taek himself. Nobody is swapped out along the way.
06
Aftercare taken seriously
The work is not over when the surgery ends. We follow your recovery through and see it to the end.
