Many clinics advertise "scarless" procedures. Understanding what this really means helps set realistic expectations.

Truly Minimal Scarring

Inside-Mouth Incisions

V-line surgery and some facial procedures use incisions inside the mouth, leaving no visible external scars.

Natural Crease Incisions

Double eyelid surgery incisions hide in the new crease; rhinoplasty can use nostrils.

Endoscopic Techniques

Some procedures use tiny incisions with cameras, minimizing scarring.

Minimal But Present

Some procedures will leave scars, though skilled surgeons minimize them:

  • Well-placed incisions in hidden areas
  • Fine suturing techniques
  • Scar treatment protocols

Scar Management

Korean clinics often include scar treatment in recovery:

  • Silicone gel sheets
  • Laser treatments
  • Steroid injections if needed
