What is it like when double eyelid surgery goes wrong? It’s probably like wanting to cry every time you look in the mirror, because even makeup can’t hide that unnatural crease. I had double eyelid surgery with sutures at a clinic in my home country, but three months later, the results were unsatisfactory—the folds were uneven and didn’t look natural. After researching many cases, I finally decided on Dr. Sung Yoon-sik from Sik Plastic Surgery in Korea, who is known as an expert in eye reconstruction.

II. Background of Director Seong Yoon-shik | Why Choose Him for Eye Repair?
Actually, I did a lot of research before choosing a doctor. President Seong Yoon-sik has an impressive background in the field of cosmetic eye surgery in Korea:
- Graduated from the School of Medicine at Hanyang University
- Former president of Wonchon Plastic Surgery Clinic
- Former president of Hong Jin-joo Plastic Surgery Clinic
- Former president of Opera Plastic Surgery Clinic
- Full member of the Korean Association of Plastic Surgeons
- Full member of the Korean Society of Aesthetic Plastic Surgery
- Full member of the Korean Research Society for Eye Plastic Surgery
- Full member of the Korean Research Society for Rhinoplasty
With nearly 20 years of clinical experience and having served as the president of several well-known plastic surgery clinics, President Seong has extensive expertise in eye plastic surgery and reconstruction. Especially in eye reconstruction—this is actually much more challenging than initial eye surgery, as it requires dealing with scar tissue, adjusting muscles, and redesigning facial folds. Not every doctor is capable of performing these procedures well.
III. Hi-Ke Plastic Surgery’s Main Services | More Than Just Double Eyelids
Although Hi-Ke is known for its eye treatments, its range of services is actually quite comprehensive:
| Service Categories | Specific Services | Features |
|---|---|---|
| Eye Surgeries (Core Services) | Double eyelids, levator correction, canthoplasty, fat repositioning around the eyes, canthus repair, asymmetry correction | “Minimally Invasive Canthoplasty” Technique |
| Nasal Surgeries | Nasal wing reduction, various nasal plastic surgeries, correction of failed nasal procedures | The natural style is the main focus. |
| Other services | Forehead lift, eyebrow lift procedures | Combined with eye treatments |
It’s worth mentioning their “minimally invasive canthoplasty” technique — traditional canthoplasty often leaves noticeable scars, but HiKe’s approach hides the incisions within the inner folds, making the scars almost invisible after recovery. This is one of the reasons many patients choose HiKe for their repairs.
IV. My real experience with eye repair | From consultation to three months after surgery
On the day of the consultation, Director Cheng immediately noticed my eyes and said, “The sutures have loosened; there’s a 1.5-mm difference in the height of the folds on both sides, and there’s also mild drooping at the corners of my eyes.” His analysis was precise, without any exaggeration or sales talk.
His recommended treatment plan was: double eyelid surgery with muscle correction and minimally invasive canthoplasty. The overall goal was to achieve naturally wide double eyelids with symmetrical folds, while also addressing the slight drooping of my eyelids. I asked several questions—would there be scars? How long would the recovery take? How long would the results last? The director answered each one patiently, without any impatience.
On the day of the surgery, I underwent basic examinations first, and then the director confirmed the surgical incision lines again. The entire procedure took about two hours, and I didn’t feel any significant discomfort during it. After the surgery, I stayed in the recovery room for an hour, where the staff explained in detail what to pay attention to afterward.
Here’s roughly how the recovery went: the first three days were the most swollen; by the seventh day, when the stitches were removed, most of the swelling had gone down. After two weeks, I could already go out in public, and after a month, the results looked increasingly natural. Three months later, the effects were stable. Now, half a year later, my double eyelid lines are smooth and symmetrical, and there are no noticeable scars even when my eyes are closed.
When it comes to reservations, are the prices of cosmetic surgeries in Korea really that expensive? The key is whether you can find reliable sources of information. Many of my friends who have gone to Korea for cosmetic procedures first check the prices on BeautsGO before making their arrangements. The platform provides public price lists from various hospitals, allowing for direct comparisons and avoiding the awkward situation of facing “foreigner prices” on-site.

VI. How to make an appointment at Xike Plastic Surgery? A friendly guide for foreigners
Xike Plastic Surgery provides services in Chinese and is quite accommodating to foreign patients. However, making an appointment on your own can still present some challenges:
| How to make an appointment | Language support | Price transparency | Difficulty level of procedures | Recommendation Score |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| 🏠 Direct reservation on the official Korean website | ❌ Entirely in Korean | ✅ Public | ⭐⭐⭐ High | ⭐⭐ |
| 📱 Naver reservation | ⚠️ Translation is incomplete | ⚠️ Partially public | ⭐⭐⭐⭐ Very high | ⭐⭐ |

💡 Tip: Dr. Seong Yoon-shik at Hiko Plastic Surgery has a limited number of surgeries per day, so it’s recommended to schedule 2–3 weeks in advance. For those visiting Korea for the first time for eye restoration, we recommend BeautsGO—they will handle everything from booking to follow-up care.

Conclusion: Is Hiko Plastic Surgery a reliable choice for eye restoration?
If your double eyelid surgery was unsuccessful and needs correction, or if you want to achieve a natural-looking result for your first eyelid surgery, Hi-Ko Plastic Surgery is definitely worth considering. Director Seong Yoon-shik’s nearly 20 years of experience in eye surgery is undeniable, especially when it comes to corrective procedures—where experience is more important than anything else.
Additionally, Shike’s “inner canthus repair” technique is truly remarkable; three months after my surgery, I could barely see any scars when my eyes were closed, which is quite rare in such recovery cases. However, cosmetic surgery is a serious matter, so I recommend that everyone compare multiple options and consult with several doctors to find the best solution for themselves.
