Reconstructive thinking informs all good aesthetic surgery. As a former Professor and Department Chair at Soonchunhyang University and a senior leader of the Korean Society of Plastic Surgeons, I bring an academic, evidence-based approach to eye and reconstructive cases. At Wonjin, I uphold the highest standards of surgical safety, education, and ethics, ensuring patients benefit from techniques refined through decades of teaching and clinical research.
