My family and I travelled to South Korea from the US and visited Lavian on the recommendation of a friend. My friend is a beautiful Korean lady and she’s visited Lavian in the past and I trust her recommendation. Right away, the clinic appears to be clean, professional, modern, and well-managed. There were always some people in the waiting room (mostly seemed like respectable locals rather than foreigners), but it was never overcrowded and the wait is never long. There is a basement level for aesthetic treatments, and a 3rd and 4th floor for surgery. The staff were all friendly and did not rush the process (this is important because some Korean clinics are known to be factory-style, quick impersonal sessions). Lavian was not at all like this; instead, people were attentive and caring. From start to finish, they listened to what my family and I wanted, addressed our questions and fears. They were never pushy, never rushed, or dismissive to any of us. Even when an emergency came up and one of my family members had to postpone and cancel a big appointment, they completely understood and prioritized our wellbeing and applied the deposit on something else. They did not make us feel guilty for cancelling, and we really appreciate that philosophy. I worked specifically with Muse (a beauty consultant), Yoon (a translator), and Dr. Kim Sang Woo. They were all lovely and trustworthy. The doctor was humble and friendly, and saw me twice in the post-op during the 2 weeks I was there to ensure healthy recovery. Yoon went above and beyond by getting medication for me while I was asleep, helped me dress multiple times, answered any questions I had in person and virtually, and comforted me when I was in pain. Even after I returned stateside, they respond immediately when I reach out to them to answer any additional questions I have. I am still waiting for my final results, but I am 100% satisfied with my experience here, and will be back whenever I visit Korea for any beauty treatments.

I am a foreigner living in Korea and had my breast augmentation surgery at Lavian. It was an amazing experience! Tammy was my personal point of contact and she answered all of my questions and was very knowledgeable from start to finish. She is also so beautiful and so kind! My surgeon was amazing. He made me feel so comfortable and I could tell he’s done this surgery many times. I never felt rushed while having my consultation. He made me feel heard and answered all questions I had respectfully. My consultation was on a Friday and I had my surgery on a Saturday morning. Afterwards, I woke up a bit groggy but they did a stem cell drip to help with recovery. Surgery was about 2 hours and then I was out of the aftercare room in about 2 hours after that. They also have amazing follow up care with massage and stem cell drip to promote healing in the area. I cannot recommend them enough if you are considering a breast augmentation in Seoul. Thank you so much, Lavian!
