DA Plastic Surgery
B1F-B2F, 4F-12F Dongchan Building, 125 Teheran-ro, Gangnam-gu, Seoul
Overview
1 / 6
"If you're pretty, it's DA!" (예쁘면 DA야!) — this iconic slogan has made DA Plastic Surgery (디에이성형외과) one of the most recognized names in Korean cosmetic surgery. Operating from its own dedicated building — the Dongchan Building in Gangnam — DA spans multiple floors from B1 to the 12th floor, housing a team of board-certified plastic surgeons, anesthesiologists, and skincare specialists under one roof.
DA's signature innovation is the "Semi-Out" double eyelid technique, a proprietary approach that has become synonymous with the clinic's name and drawn patients seeking natural, refined eye surgery results. But the clinic's expertise extends far beyond eyes — from rhinoplasty and facial contouring to breast surgery and advanced lifting procedures, each field is led by a dedicated specialist within DA's sub-specialty system.
What makes DA particularly unique is its integrated approach to beauty. An in-house skincare clinic operates alongside the surgical department with its own extended hours, ensuring patients receive comprehensive pre- and post-operative skin management. This seamless connection between surgery and skincare reflects DA's belief that lasting beauty requires ongoing care — not just a single procedure.
Our Core Values
Own Dedicated Building
DA operates from its own building — the Dongchan Building on Teheran-ro — occupying floors B1 through 12. Owning the facility means complete control over every aspect of the patient experience: from the design of consultation rooms and operating theaters to recovery spaces and the integrated skincare clinic.
Sub-Specialty Surgeon System
Rather than having generalist surgeons handle all procedures, DA assigns each field — eyes, nose, contouring, breast, lifting — to a dedicated board-certified specialist. This sub-specialty model means your surgeon has focused their entire career on the specific procedure you need.
Signature Semi-Out Technique
DA's proprietary Semi-Out double eyelid technique has become one of the most recognized innovations in Korean eye surgery. Developed in-house, this approach creates natural-looking creases with minimal scarring — a technique so closely associated with DA that patients specifically seek out the clinic for this procedure alone.
Women-Centered Aesthetic Philosophy
The iconic slogan "If you're pretty, it's DA!" reflects more than marketing — it represents a clinic built around understanding and enhancing feminine beauty. DA's surgical planning, consultation approach, and aesthetic standards are specifically calibrated to deliver results that feel natural, elegant, and aligned with each patient's personal vision.
Integrated Skincare Clinic
DA's in-house skincare department operates alongside the surgical division with its own extended hours (open until 8 PM). This integration ensures seamless pre-operative skin preparation and post-operative recovery care — because DA believes that truly lasting surgical results depend on the ongoing health and quality of the skin itself.
