Gangnam Clinic Access, Accommodation and Aftercare

Where DI Plastic Surgery is located

DI Plastic Surgery is on the 12th floor of the Seosan Building, 441 Gangnam-daero, Seocho-gu, Seoul. The clinic can be approached from Sinnonhyeon Station on Line 9 and the Shinbundang Line, or Gangnam Station on Line 2 and the Shinbundang Line.

The website’s access guide identifies Sinnonhyeon exits 7 and 8 and Gangnam exit 10. Station routes and exit availability can change, so check the current route on Google Maps or a Korean transit app on the day of travel.

Clinic hours and appointments

Published hours are weekdays 10:00–19:00 and Saturday 10:00–17:00, with Sunday closed. Holiday schedules may differ. Confirm your appointment directly because opening hours do not guarantee that a surgeon, examination or postoperative service is available without a booking.

Keep the clinic phone, email and coordinator contact accessible. If you arrive from overseas, provide your flight and accommodation details only through the secure method requested by the clinic.

Choosing accommodation for recovery

Prioritize a short, simple route over a fashionable neighborhood. Elevator access, climate control, quiet rooms, nearby food and flexible checkout are often more useful than hotel amenities. Ask whether a responsible adult should stay with you after anesthesia.

Avoid accommodation that requires long stairways, repeated subway transfers or carrying luggage. Book a changeable rate and keep funds for extra nights. DI does not control hotel standards, so verify accessibility, cancellation and guest policies directly.

Getting to follow-up safely

Public transport can be convenient before treatment, but crowded platforms, stairs and long walks may not suit early recovery. Ask the clinic whether a taxi or accompanied transport is preferable after your procedure. Do not drive after sedation or while taking medication that impairs alertness.

Allow extra time for traffic and building access. Wear clothing that does not press on the treated area and bring only essential items. If symptoms are worsening, contact the clinic before travelling so the team can advise whether routine follow-up or urgent care is appropriate.

Aftercare continues after Seoul

Before departure, confirm dressing or wound care, medication, bathing, sleep position, activity restrictions and the remote review schedule. Ask which photographs are useful and how to send them securely.

Keep a copy of the operation summary for your local doctor. DI can coordinate postoperative communication, but distance matters: severe breathing difficulty, chest pain, fainting, uncontrolled bleeding or another acute change requires local emergency assessment.

Information that helps us prepare a useful reply

When contacting the clinic, tell us the procedure or concern you would like to discuss, your preferred language, whether you have had related treatment before and the dates you could visit Seoul. International patients may also wish to include their arrival and departure dates so the team can explain when an in-person consultation and follow-up may fit into the trip.

Please do not send passport numbers, payment information or complete medical records through an initial website inquiry. A coordinator can explain which health information or photographs are relevant and how they should be shared. Online guidance is preliminary; suitability, technique and the final treatment plan are determined only after an appropriate medical assessment.
