South Korea is the world's largest market for plastic surgery, with one in five Seoul women having gone under the knife.
The most popular surgical procedures include double eyelid surgery - which reduces excess skin in the upper eyelid to make the eyes appear bigger, lipoplasty - which uses high-frequency sound waves to eliminate fat - and nose jobs.
The popularity of surgery, particularly among the young, has been blamed by some on a desire to look more 'western' fuelled by an obsession with celebrity culture. On the nonsurgical front, Botox and laser hair removal remain firm favourites, a 2012 report said.

South Koreans have more plastic surgery than any other nation according to figures released last year.
Those in the Asian country have more treatments per members of the population, with one in every 77 turning to the knife or needle.
The figures, from the International Society of Aesthetic Plastic Surgeons (ISAPS), show that in 2011, 15 million people across the globe turned to plastic surgery to enhance their looks.
While the popularity of cosmetic surgery in South Korea may come as a surprise to many, the industry there is in fact booming.
Last year, 20 per cent of women aged 19 to 49 in the capital city of Seoul admitted to going under the knife.
One of the most popular surgical procedures is double eyelid surgery - which reduces excess skin in the upper eyelid to make the eyes appear bigger and make them look more 'Western'.
It is believed that the rise of the country's music industry is behind the boom, and many patients visit clinics with photos of celebrities, asking surgeons to emulate American noses or eyes.
Singer PSY, whose song 'Gangnam Style' became a global hit, said his record label had urged him to get plastic surgery.
