Why do people choose Korea for revision double eyelid surgery?+
Korea performs one of the highest volumes of cosmetic procedures in the world, with experienced specialists, advanced technology and prices around 30-60% below the US, with no foreigner markup at MISOODA's partner clinics.
Who is a good candidate for revision double eyelid surgery?+
Suitability depends on your goals, anatomy and overall health rather than a single rule. A free MISOODA consultation reviews your case and advises whether revision double eyelid surgery or an alternative is the best fit, with a no-obligation quote within 24 hours.
How long do I need to stay in Korea for revision double eyelid surgery?+
Most international patients plan around 1-2 weeks in Korea so stitches can be removed and the surgeon can check healing before flying home; more extensive procedures may need longer. Your MISOODA case manager confirms the exact length for your plan and arranges every follow-up.
What's included in the price for revision double eyelid surgery?+
Your MISOODA quote is itemised and transparent. It typically covers the consultation, the procedure and surgeon's fee, and, depending on the clinic, pre-operative tests, anaesthesia and post-op follow-up. You pay the same price as Korean locals with no foreigner markup, and we tell you upfront what is and isn't included.
Can revision double eyelid surgery be combined with other procedures?+
Yes. Many patients combine revision double eyelid surgery with complementary procedures in a single trip, which can save both time and overall cost.

No. The 10% VAT refund for foreign patients' cosmetic procedures ended on January 1, 2026, when Korea's 2016 tax provision expired. Pages still advertising a 7–10% airport refund are outdated. The best remaining saving is paying what locals pay — MISOODA guarantees the same price as Korean locals, with no foreigner markup.
Do I still pay VAT on cosmetic surgery in Korea?+
Yes — cosmetic procedures include 10% VAT in the quoted price, and since January 1, 2026 it is no longer refundable. Medically necessary treatment is VAT-exempt, so it never carried this tax. Always compare final all-in quotes; MISOODA quotes are itemised and final.
How can I save on plastic surgery in Korea now that the tax refund ended?+
Pay what locals pay. Some agencies' foreigner prices exceed local prices by far more than the old 6–8% refund ever returned. MISOODA guarantees the same price as Korean locals, a free interpreter and concierge, and an itemised quote within 24 hours. Tax-free shopping on goods like cosmetics still works as usual.
