Based in Seoul, he is recognized internationally for natural, lasting results. He has taught as MAFAC faculty since 2016 and serves on the editorial board of Aesthetic Plastic Surgery.

The Deep Plane Facelift
Unlike conventional facelifts that tighten only the skin, the Deep Plane Facelift releases the retaining ligaments and lifts the deeper structural layers of the face, restoring the anterior midface where sagging often begins.
