Overview
1 / 6
LARA Plastic Surgery (라라성형외과) is built on two decades of surgical experience concentrated in the hands of a single master surgeon. Dr. Kim Jong-do, the clinic's founding director with over 20 years of practice, personally performs every consultation and surgery — a commitment to hands-on care that has earned 5,057 patient reviews and a loyal following among patients seeking expert rhinoplasty and eye surgery.
The clinic has developed particular renown for nose surgery, especially complex cases involving revision rhinoplasty, dorsal hump correction, deviated nose repair, and septal reconstruction. Dr. Kim's 3D simulation system allows patients to visualize proposed changes before surgery, creating alignment between surgeon and patient that reduces revision rates and increases satisfaction.
Transparency is woven into LARA's operations: operating room CCTV records every procedure, and in-patient recovery facilities ensure proper post-surgical monitoring. Located directly at Sinnonhyeon Station Exits 4 and 5 — connected via underground passage for privacy — the clinic provides both exceptional surgical expertise and the practical convenience that patients value.
Our Core Values
20+ Years of Surgical Mastery
Dr. Kim Jong-do brings over two decades of focused plastic surgery experience to every procedure. This longevity represents thousands of surgeries, refined techniques, and the pattern recognition that only comes from sustained, high-volume practice at the highest level.
Rhinoplasty & Revision Expert
LARA has built its reputation on nose surgery — from primary rhinoplasty to complex revisions, dorsal hump correction, deviated nose repair, and septal reconstruction. This concentrated nose expertise attracts patients specifically seeking specialist-level care for this demanding procedure.
3D Surgical Simulation
Advanced 3D simulation technology allows patients to visualize proposed surgical changes before any procedure. This pre-operative planning tool creates precise alignment between surgeon and patient expectations, significantly reducing the likelihood of unsatisfactory outcomes.
Operating Room CCTV
Every procedure at LARA is recorded via operating room CCTV, providing a documented record that ensures complete surgical accountability. Combined with in-patient recovery facilities, this transparency reflects a clinic that stands behind its work.
Sinnonhyeon Station Direct Underground
Connected to Sinnonhyeon Station Exits 4 and 5 via underground passage, LARA offers direct subway access with maximum privacy. Patients can reach the clinic without outdoor exposure — valuable both for convenience and for post-surgical discretion.
