About VIP Plastic Surgery Clinic – Aesthetic Excellence in Korea

After completing his journey as an exchange professor at UT Southwestern Medical Center, Dr. Myung Ju Lee returned to Korea. With a vision to advance plastic surgery, he established VIP Plastic Surgery Korea. Driven by his core philosophy, Dr. Lee became the first plastic surgeon in Korea to perform rhinoplasty using 100% autologous rib cartilage without artificial implants, setting a new standard for safe, long-lasting, and natural-looking results. Dr. Lee also pioneered the SMAS Facelift and Deep Plane Facelift techniques in Korea, becoming the first surgeon in Korea to perform both advanced facial rejuvenation surgeries.

Since its founding in 2001, VIP Plastic Surgery Korea has been a trusted destination for both domestic and international patients seeking aesthetic enhancements and facial rejuvenation. Patients from over 50 countries have chosen VIP Plastic Surgery Korea for its surgical excellence, meticulous attention to detail, and commitment to patient safety.

Building on this foundation, VIP Plastic Surgery Korea has grown into a team of highly specialized, board-certified plastic surgeons. Alongside Dr. Myung Ju Lee, the clinic is joined by Dr. Yong Woo Lee (PDF) and Dr. Seog Keun Yoo (PDF), further strengthening its expertise across facial rejuvenation and body contouring procedures.
Each surgeon brings advanced clinical experience and a shared commitment to precision, safety, and natural-looking outcomes. Through this collaborative approach, VIP continues to deliver consistent surgical excellence while offering patients a wider range of personalized treatment options.
