Facial contouring
Bone-based contouring of the jaw, chin and cheekbones is one of the procedures the clinic features most prominently.
Independent clinic guide
Banobagi Plastic Surgery: an independent guide before you book.
Banobagi is one of the Gangnam clinic names international patients search for most. This page sets out what the clinic itself publishes, and the questions worth asking before you commit.
Banobagi Plastic Surgery (바노바기 성형외과) is a cosmetic surgery clinic on Nonhyeon-ro in Gangnam, Seoul, close to Yeoksam and Eonju stations. The clinic describes itself as having spent around 25 years on natural-looking rejuvenation, and its surgery menu covers eyes, nose, facial contouring, breast, lifting and procedures for men.
Banobagi also runs a separate dermatology clinic under the same name. If you have seen 'Banobagi dermatology' online, that is a different clinic from the plastic surgery practice, with its own doctors and its own pricing.
For international patients, the clinic publishes websites in English, Thai, Chinese, Vietnamese, Indonesian and Japanese. As of October 2026 it does not list an Arabic site, so patients from the Gulf usually arrange their own interpretation. If you would rather go through a consultation in Arabic, ask us about it.
What Banobagi is known for
Eyes and nose
Double eyelid and other eye surgery, and rhinoplasty — the two most common cosmetic operations in Korea, and a large part of Banobagi's menu.
Breast surgery
The clinic promotes breast augmentation using Motiva implants with an approach it describes as preserving tissue and sensation.
Lifting and anti-aging
Surgical and non-surgical lifting, offered through what the clinic calls its lifting lounge, alongside wider anti-aging treatment.
What to confirm before you book
These are the same questions we ask of every clinic. A good clinic answers them in writing without hesitation, and Banobagi should be no exception.
- Which surgeon will operate on you, named in writing — and that it is the same surgeon you meet at consultation.
- That the surgeon is board-certified in plastic surgery and performs your specific procedure regularly.
- A written, all-in quote covering surgery, anaesthesia, materials, medication and follow-ups.
- Whether a price you were given elsewhere includes an agent's commission on top of the clinic's fee.
- How follow-ups and complications are handled once you have flown home.

Banobagi Plastic Surgery, answered.
Where is Banobagi Plastic Surgery?
At 517 Nonhyeon-ro, Gangnam-gu, Seoul — a short walk from Yeoksam Station (exit 6) and Eonju Station (exit 7). It is about an hour by car from Incheon International Airport, depending on traffic.
Does Banobagi have Arabic-speaking staff?
The clinic's own website lists English, Thai, Chinese, Vietnamese, Indonesian and Japanese, but not Arabic, as of October 2026. Many international patients manage in English. If you would prefer Arabic for your consultation, ask us about interpretation before you travel.
Are Banobagi Plastic Surgery and Banobagi Dermatology the same clinic?
No. They share a name but are separate clinics. Skin treatments such as lasers and injectables are booked with the dermatology clinic; surgery is booked with the plastic surgery clinic.
How much does surgery at Banobagi cost?
It depends on the procedure, the surgeon and what is combined. Treat any figure you see online as a rough guide only, and make sure the quote you rely on is written, all-in and comes from a consultation.
Is 8on2 affiliated with Banobagi?
This guide is independent and is not written or paid for by the clinic. We can help you compare it with other Seoul clinics for the procedure you want and prepare the questions for your consultation.
