How much does ptosis surgery cost in Busan?

Ptosis surgery is a specialized eyelid procedure designed to correct drooping upper eyelids caused by weakened eyelid-opening muscles. In Busan, ptosis correction is a popular option for patients who want to improve tired-looking eyes, uneven eyelid height, or limited eye opening.

Non-Incisional Ptosis Correction Cost

Typical range

₩1,500,000–₩3,500,000

Non-incisional ptosis correction uses a suture-based technique to adjust eyelid opening strength without a full incision.

However, it may not be recommended for patients with moderate to severe eyelid drooping.

  • Mild ptosis
  • Good eyelid skin elasticity
  • Less eyelid fat
  • Minimal sagging
  • Shorter recovery time
  • Less swelling
  • Smaller surgical changes
Cost guide

Incisional Ptosis Surgery Cost

Typical range

₩2,000,000–₩5,000,000

Incisional ptosis surgery allows surgeons to directly adjust the levator muscle or related eyelid structures.

Because it involves more detailed muscle adjustment, incisional surgery generally costs more than non-incisional methods.

  • Moderate to severe ptosis
  • Significant eyelid heaviness
  • Uneven eye opening
  • Previous unsuccessful correction

Ptosis Correction With Double Eyelid Surgery Cost

  • Eye openness
  • Eyelid symmetry
  • Defined eyelid crease
  • Tired-looking appearance
  • Incisional double eyelid creation
  • Fat adjustment
  • Skin removal
  • Additional eye procedures
Cost guide

A surgeon needs to carefully evaluate previous surgical changes before recommending a revision plan.

  • Under-correction
  • Over-correction
  • Uneven eyelid height
  • Scar tissue
