About UcanB

We are creating beauty — safely and naturally

UcanB began in 1999 as Kim Jun-ho Plastic Surgery and has grown into today's UcanB Plastic Surgery & Dermatology in the heart of Gangnam, Seoul. Throughout those years our medical team's commitment to patient safety and natural beauty has never changed.

Our goal is to give every patient the safest, most natural result. More than two decades of experience and know-how show up where it matters most: in safety and satisfaction. Plastic surgery, dermatology and anesthesiology work together under one roof, with cooperative dental and ophthalmology care for patients who need it.

“Our goal is to give every patient the safest, most natural beauty.”

Treatments

Plastic surgery & dermatology at UcanB

From eyes and nose to facial contouring, anti-aging, breast and body — plus non-surgical lifting and skin care. Every plan is tailored after a 1:1 consultation and examination.

Lift from the deep layers, not just the skin

Facelift & Anti-aging Surgery

Surgical lifting at UcanB works on the deeper SMAS layer and retaining ligaments rather than pulling skin alone, with incisions hidden around the ear or in the hairline and a Full-HD endoscope where appropriate.

  • Deep-plane and SMAS techniques for natural, longer-lasting results
  • Hidden incisions and endoscopic precision
  • Plans tailored to the areas you want treated

Recommended for

  • Sagging cheeks and jowls that blur the jawline
  • Deep nasolabial folds and marionette lines
  • Drooping brows, heavy upper face or forehead wrinkles
  • Sagging after facial contouring or weight loss
  • Volume loss in the temples, forehead or cheeks; thinning hair

Procedures

Double deep-plane facelift

Dr. Kim Jun-ho's signature facelift: retaining ligaments are released and the deep SMAS and fat pads are repositioned vertically, then fine-tuned in multiple vectors per zone with tension-free skin closure to help preserve the natural ear shape.

Hidden V mini facelift

A short-incision lift around the ear that tightens skin, fat and SMAS together under a Full-HD endoscope. Incision areas are chosen to match your wrinkles and sagging.

Endoscopic forehead (brow) lift

Through about 1 cm incisions in the scalp, drooping brows, upper lids and forehead are lifted endoscopically, and frown-line muscles can be treated at the same time.

  • About 1 hour
Forehead reduction (hairline lowering)

Shortens a high forehead and softens an M-shaped hairline with a follicle-preserving incision, 7-point fixation and triple-layer closure.

  • Hair wash from day 4
  • Stitches out ~day 10
Lift for sagging after contouring

Re-drapes soft tissue that sagged after cheekbone, jaw or two-jaw surgery, lifting skin, fat and SMAS through custom micro-incisions around the ear.

  • Same-day discharge
Facial fat grafting

Your own fat is harvested, purified by centrifuge and grafted with micro-cannulas into the temples, forehead, cheeks, nasolabial area or chin for soft, natural volume.

Hair transplant

Follicles from the back and sides of the head are transplanted to the hairline, front or crown for pattern hair loss, a wide forehead or hairline refinement.

  • 2–4 hours
  • IV sedation or general anesthesia
  • Stitches out day 10–15
  • No hospital stay

Natural shape, soft feel, careful planning

Breast Surgery

Breast surgery is planned through a detailed 1:1 consultation that weighs shape, size, feel and safety for your body. Augmentation uses premium implants with an endoscope and a no-touch Keller funnel as part of a capsular-contracture prevention protocol.

  • Motiva, Mentor and Sebbin implants
  • Full-HD endoscope and Keller funnel no-touch technique
  • Dermatology-led aftercare for swelling and scars

Recommended for

  • Small breasts or volume loss after pregnancy
  • Large or sagging breasts causing neck, shoulder or back pain
  • Contracture, displacement or asymmetry after a previous surgery
  • Gynecomastia in men
  • Accessory breast tissue in the armpit

Procedures

Breast augmentation

Endoscopic augmentation with the pocket dissected precisely so implants sit naturally and form a defined cleavage. Implant size is chosen from your breast-to-implant ratio.

  • Motiva · Mentor · Sebbin
Breast reduction & lift

Removes excess tissue and lifts the breast through a vertical or periareolar incision, relieving discomfort and improving shape.

  • 2–3 hours
  • General anesthesia
  • Same-day discharge
  • 3 follow-ups
Breast revision

Corrects capsular contracture, upper bulging, bottoming-out, symmastia, asymmetry or rupture after analysing the capsule, implant and pocket.

Nipple reduction & inverted nipple correction

Duct-preserving reduction for large or long nipples, and release of tethering tissue with small flaps for inverted nipples.

  • About 1 hour
  • IV sedation
  • Stitches out day 10–15
Gynecomastia surgery

Ultrasound identifies fatty, glandular or mixed types; liposuction is combined with gland removal for a firmer, flatter male chest and lower recurrence risk.

  • 1–2 hours
  • IV sedation
  • Same-day discharge
Accessory breast removal

Removes armpit breast tissue with tiny-incision liposuction, or with gland excision through a 1–3 cm armpit incision when needed.

  • About 1 hour
  • IV sedation
  • No hospital stay

Rhinoplasty

Rhinoplasty at UcanB is planned around the balance of the forehead, bridge, tip and chin rather than height alone. A 3D-CT scan checks cartilage and tissue before surgery, and Dr. Kim Jun-ho personally handles consultation, surgery and follow-up in a 1:1 system.

  • 3D-CT assessment of cartilage and soft tissue
  • Customised implants plus septal, ear, rib cartilage or dermis
  • Surgeon-performed, 1:1 care from consultation to follow-up

Recommended for

  • A low or flat nasal bridge
  • A bulbous, short, upturned or drooping tip
  • A dorsal hump or uneven nasal line
  • Wide or flared nostrils
  • Concerns after a previous nose surgery

Procedures

Nose augmentation

Raises a low bridge with a customised implant and refines the tip with your own cartilage or tissue, so bridge and tip are designed together for whole-face balance.

Closed rhinoplasty

Performed through incisions inside the nostrils with no external columella incision — a discreet option for patients who want a natural nose and a quicker return to daily life.

  • No external incision
Short & upturned nose correction

Lengthens the nose and lowers the tip with tip grafts, septal extension grafts or alar rim grafts using autologous cartilage, so nostrils are less visible from the front.

Bulbous tip & implant-free tip plasty

Narrows a wide, blunt tip by reshaping and uniting the tip cartilages and thinning soft tissue where needed, or refines the tip using only septal cartilage — without artificial implants.

Dorsal hump correction

Smooths a beak-like profile by rasping or removing the hump; depending on severity, implants, cartilage grafts or osteotomy may be added.

Alar (nostril) reduction

Narrows large or flared nostrils with a fixation technique designed to help maintain the result, sized for overall facial harmony.

  • About 30 minutes
Revision rhinoplasty

For visible or shifted implants, contracture, deformity or recurring humps. The cause of the first result is analysed with 3D-CT before a tailored plan using silicone, dermis or septal, ear or rib cartilage.

  • Usually ≥ 6 months after first surgery

Eye Surgery

Every eye plan starts with an analysis of facial proportions, the distance between the eyes, eye-tail direction, pupil exposure, epicanthal folds and eyelid thickness. From non-incisional double eyelids to ptosis correction and lower blepharoplasty, we choose only what your eyes actually need.

  • Design based on eye length, fold height and facial balance
  • Incisional and non-incisional options chosen case by case
  • Revision plans start from the cause of the first result

Recommended for

  • Single eyelids, multiple folds or asymmetric folds
  • Sleepy-looking eyes where the lid covers the pupil
  • Short eye length or a covered inner corner
  • Sagging upper-eyelid skin or bulging under-eye fat
  • Unsatisfying results from a previous eye surgery

Procedures

Multi-point natural adhesion double eyelid

A non-incisional technique using tiny holes and multiple buried fixation points matched to the length of your eye, inducing adhesion between the skin and levator for a secure, natural fold with minimal scarring.

  • Non-incisional
  • Multi-point fixation
Minimal-incision double eyelid

Removes sagging skin with excess muscle and fat through an incision placed only where needed. In-line, out-line or in-out-line folds are possible, aiming for a defined, long-lasting fold with limited scarring and swelling.

  • Incisional
  • In / out / in-out line
Ptosis correction (eye-opening correction)

Adjusts the strength of the eye-opening muscle so the eyelid no longer covers the pupil, treating sleepy-looking eyes at their cause. Often combined with double-eyelid surgery; incisional and non-incisional approaches are available.

  • Incisional or non-incisional
Canthoplasty (medial, upper, lateral, lower)

Lengthens the eye horizontally or vertically. Medial, upper, lateral and lower canthoplasty are chosen only when needed after assessing pupil and caruncle exposure; lateral work is anchored to the periosteum to reduce reattachment.

Septum-reinforced under-eye fat repositioning

Through the inner conjunctiva, under-eye fat is repositioned into the tear trough while the weakened orbital septum is tightened and fixed — smoothing eye bags and hollows while removing little or no fat.

  • Transconjunctival approach
Upper & lower blepharoplasty, sub-brow lift

For ageing eyelids: upper blepharoplasty removes drooping skin and fat and fixes the orbicularis muscle; lower blepharoplasty lifts sagging tissue while preserving aegyo-sal; a sub-brow lift raises heavy lids along the brow line without changing an existing fold.

Eye revision surgery

Corrects asymmetry, loosened or overly high folds, scars and under- or over-corrected ptosis after a previous surgery. Waiting at least six months after the first operation is generally recommended.

  • Usually ≥ 6 months after first surgery

Facial Contouring

Bone contouring changes the frame of the face, so precise planning matters. Each case is mapped with CT or X-ray to check bone thickness and nerve paths, then designed to your own proportions so the result looks natural rather than overdone. Most procedures use intra-oral incisions.

  • CT-based diagnosis of bone, nerves and resection amount
  • Intra-oral incisions — no visible external incision
  • Dedicated anesthesiologist and one-night stay for bone surgery

Recommended for

  • A wide, square or asymmetric jaw
  • Prominent cheekbones that make the face look wide
  • A long, wide or receding chin
  • A prominent lower jaw or protruding mouth

Procedures

V-line chin contouring

Narrows and reshapes a wide or long chin (T-osteotomy), often combined with jaw-angle reduction, for a slim V-shaped line from below the ears to the chin.

  • About 2.5 hours
  • General anesthesia
  • 1-night stay
  • 3–5 follow-ups
Square jaw reduction

Removes excess jawbone in several segments through the mouth, so the line is smooth without a secondary angle and the lower face looks smaller and softer.

  • About 2.5 hours
  • General anesthesia
  • 1-night stay
Cheekbone (zygoma) reduction

Repositions prominent lateral, 45° or front cheekbones up and inward with minimal dissection, designed to reduce the risk of cheek sagging.

  • About 2.5 hours
  • General anesthesia
  • 1-night stay
Two-jaw surgery with absorbable fixation

Orthognathic surgery fixed with absorbable Osteotrans plates and screws instead of titanium. The fixtures are gradually absorbed over about two years, so a second operation to remove hardware is not needed.

Retrusive & prominent chin surgery

Sliding genioplasty or a chin implant for a receding chin; single- or two-jaw surgery for a prominent lower jaw, chosen only when truly needed after CT analysis.

  • Stitch removal ~3 weeks (prognathism)
Protruding mouth correction

Sets back protruding teeth and alveolar bone through the mouth to soften a pouty profile and reduce gummy show.

  • About 1 hour
  • General anesthesia
  • Stitches out day 7
  • 1-night stay

Liposuction

Liposuction is planned from InBody and high-resolution ultrasound analysis of fat thickness and muscle, not volume alone. The fat layer is treated evenly to avoid border lines, entry points are hidden in natural creases, and in-house dermatology provides aftercare.

  • Ultrasound-guided design; pure-fat volume reported honestly
  • Long, round cannulas and hidden entry points
  • Lymphatic drainage and RF aftercare

Recommended for

  • Stubborn fat in the arms, abdomen, flanks or thighs
  • Fat that remains despite diet and exercise
  • Round lower face, jowls or a double chin
  • Body-shape changes after pregnancy

Procedures

Arm, abdomen & thigh liposuction

360° arm, upper and lower abdomen, flank and circumferential thigh liposuction, with the amount set safely for your BMI and skin elasticity.

  • About 40 minutes
  • IV sedation + local
  • No hospital stay
  • 2–3 follow-ups
Large-volume liposuction

Treats several areas in one session — for example arms, abdomen and thighs — focusing on pure subcutaneous fat to limit blood loss and swelling.

Back & flank liposuction

Removes the stubborn roll above the hips for a narrower waist and a cleaner back view.

  • About 30 minutes
  • Back to work in ~3 days
Face liposuction

Micro-cannula removal of cheek, jowl and under-chin fat, taking only the right amount to suit your bone structure and symmetry.

Double-chin liposuction + platysma tightening

Combines micro-cannula liposuction with removal of fat above and below the platysma and tightening of the loose muscle bands through a small incision, for a sharper jaw-neck angle.

Non-surgical Lifting

Our dermatology team matches ultrasound, radiofrequency and thread lifting to your skin layers and degree of sagging. Because UcanB is also a facelift clinic, treatments are planned with a surgeon's understanding of facial anatomy.

  • Real-time ultrasound imaging for depth-matched energy
  • Device and mode chosen per area
  • Can be combined with skin boosters or surgery

Recommended for

  • Early sagging of the cheeks, jawline or neck
  • Double chin or buccal fat
  • Loss of elasticity after weight loss
  • Those who prefer to avoid surgery or downtime

Procedures

Ultherapy PRIME

Micro-focused ultrasound delivered at 1.5, 3.0 and 4.5 mm depths with real-time imaging to stimulate collagen and lift the SMAS layer. Daily life is possible the same day; results build over 2–3 months.

  • No downtime
  • Results build over months
InMode FX & Forma

Radiofrequency in two modes: FX targets localised fat such as a double chin or buccal fat, while Forma heats the skin to tighten and lift. Modes are combined to suit each face.

Liftera HIFU

High-intensity focused ultrasound with pen-type and line-type handpieces, reaching curved areas around the eyes, mouth and jawline as well as broad areas.

  • Short treatment time
Thread lift

Absorbable PDO or PLLA threads placed along planned vectors to lift the jawline, cheeks and nasolabial area and stimulate collagen. Numbing cream is applied for comfort.

  • Numbing cream
  • Avoid sauna 5–7 days

Skin, Pigment & Acne

The dermatology team first diagnoses the type and depth of pigment, redness or acne, then combines lasers, RF microneedling and skin boosters into a tailored programme with careful aftercare.

  • Pigment lasers including dual toning, IPL, CO2 and Fraxel
  • Combination programmes for synergy
  • Diagnosis by the dermatology director

Recommended for

  • Melasma, freckles, blemishes and age spots
  • Facial redness, flushing or visible capillaries
  • Persistent adult acne and post-acne marks
  • Enlarged pores, dull tone or dehydrated skin

Procedures

Sylfirm X RF microneedling

Pulsed radiofrequency delivered through fine microneedles in three modes, used for melasma, redness, pigmentation, pores, texture and acne scars.

Laser Genesis

A gentle 1064 nm Nd:YAG laser passed over the whole face to address redness, pigmentation and tone while stimulating collagen.

Pigmentation & brightening

Laser toning, pigment lasers, IPL and injection therapy combined according to the depth and cause of melasma, freckles or age spots. Sun protection and maintenance are important because pigment can recur.

  • Freckles: ~5–10 sessions
Gold PTT acne treatment

Gold nanoparticles are driven into pores with ultrasound and activated by laser to target overactive oil glands, helping calm inflammation and reduce flare-ups.

  • Weekly
  • 3–5 sessions
  • Minimal downtime
Redness & flushing (PDL vascular laser)

The Cynergy MultiPlex pulsed-dye and Nd:YAG laser targets the red component of the skin for post-acne redness, flushing and visible capillaries.

  • Every 1–2 weeks
  • 5–10 sessions
Skin boosters & Elravie Re2O

Micro-injections such as Rejuran Healer (PN), Dr. DMAE, Diamond Feel and hydrating hyaluronic acid improve elasticity, fine lines, pores and glow. Elravie Re2O supplies human-derived dermal matrix (ECM) components; three sessions at 3–4 week intervals are typical.

Injectables & Body Contouring

Injectables are designed around muscle movement and facial proportions, with genuine products in the correct dose. Non-invasive body treatments are planned after InBody analysis.

  • Dosage tailored to muscle size and position
  • Hyaluronic-acid fillers with fine cannulas
  • Non-surgical options for body shape

Recommended for

  • Dynamic wrinkles, a square jaw or bulky shoulders and calves
  • Hollow areas, static wrinkles, thin lips or a short chin
  • Localised facial or body fat and cellulite
  • Excessive sweating

Procedures

Botulinum toxin

Relaxes targeted muscles to soften forehead, frown and crow's-feet lines, slim the jaw, shoulders or calves, and reduce excessive sweating.

Hyaluronic-acid filler

Restores volume in the forehead, temples, front cheeks, nose, nasolabial folds, lips, aegyo-sal and chin, with results visible straight after treatment.

Chin filler + mentalis toxin

Adds projection to a short chin for a balanced profile, combined with toxin to smooth a dimpled 'pebble' chin.

Contour injection

Injections that help reduce localised fat in the cheeks, jawline and under the chin. Swelling may occur for a short time.

RF body care, Pherapy & CellCut

Non-invasive radiofrequency and LED-plus-sound-wave body treatments for firmness and cellulite, and CellCut injections for localised body fat — tailored after InBody measurement.

Recovery time varies with the method used and your individual condition, and side effects such as bleeding, swelling or inflammation may occur. Procedure times shown are typical and are confirmed at consultation.

FAQ

Frequently asked questions

Planning surgery or treatment in Seoul? Here are answers to the questions we hear most often.

Where is UcanB Plastic Surgery & Dermatology located?

We are on the 7th floor of the Tongyeong Building (the Hana Bank building) at 405 Gangnam-daero, Seocho-gu, Seoul — directly in front of Gangnam Station Exit 10 on subway Line 2.

What are your opening hours?

Both plastic surgery and dermatology are open Monday to Friday from 10:00 AM to 7:00 PM and on Saturdays from 10:00 AM to 5:00 PM. We are closed on Sundays and Korean public holidays. Online enquiries are received all year round.

How can I contact the clinic from abroad?

Our main number, 1588-2338, can only be dialled from within Korea. From overseas, please email ucanb1004@gmail.com or message us on KakaoTalk with your concerns, photos if helpful and your travel dates.

Who performs my surgery?

Surgery is performed by our board-certified plastic surgeons — Dr. Kim Jun-ho, Dr. Park Seong-uk and Dr. Song Yu-seong. The surgeon you consult with is the surgeon who operates, and anesthesia is managed by a board-certified anesthesiologist.

How long should I stay in Seoul after surgery?

It depends on the procedure. Facial bone contouring usually involves one night in hospital, and swelling peaks around days 2–3. Many eye and nose procedures need stitch removal within about a week, while liposuction and many breast procedures are done without a hospital stay but need follow-up visits. Your surgeon will give you a personalised schedule at consultation.

What kind of anesthesia is used?

Smaller procedures use local anesthesia or IV sedation, while bone contouring, two-jaw surgery and some breast surgery use general anesthesia. A board-certified anesthesiologist manages anesthesia with real-time monitoring.

I had surgery elsewhere. Can you do revision surgery?

Yes. We offer revision eye, nose and breast surgery. We first analyse why the earlier result happened — with 3D-CT for the nose where needed. For eye and nose revisions we generally recommend waiting at least six months after the first operation, unless there is inflammation or another problem that needs earlier care.

How do you prevent infection?

We use single-use disposables and sterilise instruments with high-pressure steam (autoclave) and ethylene-oxide gas, store them in UV sterilising cabinets and seal them individually in sterilisation pouches.

Do you offer non-surgical treatments as well?

Yes. Our dermatology department provides Ultherapy PRIME, InMode, Liftera, thread lifts, Sylfirm X, Laser Genesis, pigment and acne treatments, skin boosters, botulinum toxin, fillers and non-invasive body contouring.

Are results guaranteed?

No medical procedure can guarantee a result. Outcomes and recovery vary with anatomy, the method used and aftercare, and side effects such as swelling, bruising, bleeding or inflammation can occur. Your doctor will explain realistic expectations and risks before you decide.

Is VAT included in treatment prices?

Cosmetic plastic surgery and aesthetic dermatology treatments such as lifting, filler, Botox and skin boosters are subject to 10% VAT under Korean tax law, charged separately from the quoted price. Please check the final amount with our staff during your consultation.

Can I get a tax refund on cosmetic treatments as a foreign visitor?

No. The tax refund program for cosmetic treatments received by foreign visitors has ended, so VAT paid on surgery and treatments cannot be refunded.

What payment methods do you accept?

We accept credit cards and cash.
