A safety checklist for any Gangnam clinic
Since IH emphasizes safety, use these questions to see how that works in practice:
- Pre-operative screening: which blood tests, ECG or imaging are done before surgery?
- Anaesthesia: who administers it, and is that person present throughout?
- Monitoring: how are vital signs tracked during and after surgery?
- Emergency readiness: what equipment is on site, and which hospital is used for transfers?
- Medication: which supplements or drugs should you stop before surgery?
- Aftercare: who can you call at night, and in what language?
Strengths and who it suits
IH suits patients who put safety and precision above everything, including first-time patients nervous about surgery abroad. Anatomy-based planning also suits people with asymmetry or previous procedures.
International patient support
International services are not described. Ask whether English-speaking staff or interpreters are available and how written aftercare is provided.
Typical Gangnam costs and stays
| Procedure | Typical range | Usual stay |
|---|---|---|
| Upper blepharoplasty | About 1.5–3.5M KRW | 5–7 days |
| Primary rhinoplasty | About 3–8M KRW | 7–10 days |
| Arm liposuction | About 2.5–5M KRW | 5–7 days |
| Breast augmentation | About 7–15M KRW | 7–10 days |
District ranges for planning, not IH's own prices. A safety-focused clinic should be able to explain how anaesthesia and monitoring are reflected in its quote.
Recovery basics
After facial surgery, sleep elevated and use cold compresses for about two days. After liposuction or breast surgery, wear support garments and walk gently from the first day to support circulation. Avoid alcohol, smoking, saunas and strenuous exercise until cleared. Keep each follow-up visit, and ask IH for a written emergency plan with contact numbers in case you feel unwell at your hotel.
Keep that plan with your passport and travel documents during the stay.
