Clinic Overview & Philosophy

Clinic Information & Location

Jeongwoo Plastic Surgery is located on the 2nd floor of the Neos Building, 585-1 Sinsa-dong, Gangnam-gu, Seoul (near Apgujeong Station).

It operates under a single representative director system, maintaining a 'Service Care' system for high-concentration, individualized patient care.

Core Values

  • Specialist Doctor: Skilled specialists treat directly for good results.
  • Safety System: Safety is considered the top priority in any surgery.
  • Scholarship: Medical technology is advanced through continuous academic activities and research.

Safety and Medical Systems

  • Operating Room CCTV: Installed to resolve anxiety about substitute surgery and ensure transparency.
  • Anesthesia Safety: Anesthesiologist on site, with an emergency response system in place.
  • Real-name Practice: Medical staff names are disclosed from consultation to surgery for responsible treatment.

Major Clinical Fields

Rhinoplasty

  • Utilization of Autologous Tissue: Prefers a 'Hybrid' method using temporal fascia for natural lines and reinforced skin thickness, and autologous tissues (ear cartilage, septal cartilage) for the tip to minimize side effects.
  • Avoiding Artificial Dermis: Adheres to the principle of using materials that are easy to remove, citing difficulties with absorption prediction and removal during revision surgery for artificial dermis.
  • Revision Surgery & Side Effect Treatment: Handles high-difficulty revision cases, following a principled protocol of implant removal and sufficient recovery before revision.

Facial Contouring & Orthognathic Surgery

  • Harmony and Safety: Aims for lines that fit the patient's face shape and image, rather than simply aggressive bone shaving.
  • Post-operative Care: Thoroughly monitors swelling and bleeding, personally checking the patient's recovery process.

Endoscopic Forehead Lift

  • Surgical Method: Performed through a small incision inside the hairline with an endoscope to check nerves and blood vessels, minimizing scarring and recovery time.
  • Effect: Simultaneously improves sagging eyebrows and forehead wrinkles, brightening the impression. Can be performed with double eyelid surgery or alone for natural eye correction.

Reputation and Patient Review Analysis

Positive Evaluations

  • Naturalness: Patients frequently praise "natural lines" that harmonize with their face, avoiding overly flashy results.
  • Expertise and Trust: High praise for precise CT analysis, director's personal explanation of pros/cons, and the willingness to dissuade unnecessary surgeries.
  • Responsibility: Reviews highlight the director's personal involvement in post-operative checks and proactive communication regarding outcomes.

Considerations and Characteristics

  • Conservative Tendency: May feel conservative for patients seeking dramatic or bold changes, as the clinic prioritizes safety and naturalness.
  • Waiting Time: Due to the director personally handling consultations and surgeries, waiting times may occur, distinguishing it from 'factory-type' clinics.

Conclusion

Jeongwoo Plastic Surgery and Representative Director Lee Jung-woo are analyzed as a medical institution that values **'Basics and Principles'**. Director Lee Jung-woo has built trust through verified surgical methods (use of autologous tissue, endoscopic surgery, etc.) and patient safety systems (CCTV, real-name practice) rather than flashy marketing or unreasonable surgery recommendations.

In particular, the exclusion of artificial dermis and active use of autologous tissue (temporal fascia, etc.) in the **Rhinoplasty field**, and abundant experience in large hospitals in the **Facial Contouring field**, are strong competitive advantages of the clinic. For patients, it can be a suitable choice when desiring "safe and natural results," and it is evaluated as providing a reassuring environment for patients sensitive to medical ethics issues such as shadow doctors.
