Blue Urology in Yeongdeungpo provides comprehensive, patient-centered care for urinary and men’s health concerns. General and Diagnostic Procedures Cystoscopy: A thin scope is inserted through the urethra to inspect the bladder and urethra. It helps diagnose causes of blood in urine, recurrent infections, pain, or urinary blockage. Uroflowmetry: A noninvasive test that measures how fast and how much you urinate. It helps evaluate urinary obstruction, weak bladder, or treatment results. Urodynamic testing: A set of tests that measure bladder pressure and function during filling and voiding. It guides treatment for incontinence, urgency, or difficult urination. Prostate ultrasound: An ultrasound probe images the prostate to assess size and structure. It evaluates nodules and helps guide targeted biopsies. Prostate biopsy: Small tissue samples are taken from the prostate using a needle under ultrasound guidance. Pathology checks for cancer to confirm diagnosis and plan care. Prostate and Bladder Care Transurethral Resection of the Prostate (TURP): A surgical scope removes excess prostate tissue through the urethra to relieve blockage from BPH. It improves urine flow and reduces frequency, urgency, and nighttime urination. Laser prostate surgery: A laser is used through a scope to remove or shrink obstructing prostate tissue. It aims for faster recovery and less bleeding than traditional surgery. Botox injection for overactive bladder: Botulinum toxin is injected into the bladder wall via cystoscopy to calm overactivity. It reduces urgency, frequency, and leakage when medications are not enough. Pelvic floor therapy and biofeedback: Guided exercises strengthen pelvic muscles to improve control. It helps stress incontinence and supports recovery after prostate treatments. Stone Management Extracorporeal Shock Wave Lithotripsy (ESWL): Focused sound waves break kidney or ureteral stones into small fragments. The pieces are then passed naturally with urine. Ureteroscopy (laser stone removal): A thin scope is passed into the ureter or kidney to see and fragment stones with a laser, then remove them. A temporary stent is sometimes placed to keep urine flowing and reduce swelling. Stone analysis and prevention plan: Passed or removed stones are analyzed for composition. Diet, hydration, and medications are tailored to reduce the chances of new stones. Men’s Health and Fertility Vasectomy: The vas deferens tubes are sealed through tiny skin openings for permanent contraception. It is an outpatient procedure with quick recovery and does not affect sexual function. Varicocele repair: Enlarged scrotal veins are tied off through a small incision to improve comfort and semen quality. Microscopic techniques reduce pain, recurrence, and complications. Erectile dysfunction evaluation and treatment: Testing and counseling identify causes and options such as medication, vacuum devices, or injections. Care is individualized to restore reliable erections and sexual confidence. Premature ejaculation treatment: Behavioral strategies, topical anesthetics, and medications are combined to improve control. Counseling addresses performance anxiety and relationship factors. Scrotal and Penile Surgery Circumcision: The foreskin is removed to treat recurrent infections, scarring, or personal preference. Modern techniques focus on precision, comfort, and cosmetic outcome. Hydrocele repair: A fluid-filled sac around the testicle is removed or repaired through a small scrotal incision. The goal is to relieve swelling, heaviness, and discomfort. Spermatocele removal: A benign cyst arising from the epididymis is excised while preserving nearby structures. Surgery relieves lump-related discomfort and cosmetic concerns. Penile curvature correction: Sutures are placed to straighten curvature that interferes with function. This improves sexual function and reduces pain from Peyronie’s disease.

Evita Clinic in Apgujeong, Seoul offers a focused range of body contouring, breast, and gender-affirming surgeries with coordinated peri-operative and post-operative care for international patients. Gynecomastia Gynecomastia Surgery treats enlarged male breast tissue by removing gland and/or fat to create a flatter, more masculine chest. The plan is tailored to the amount of tissue and skin laxity to improve chest contour and nipple position. Liposuction (Body & Face) Liposuction removes localized fat deposits through small incisions using a suction cannula to refine body contours. It is used for shaping rather than weight loss, and results depend on skin quality and post-op compression. Abdomen Liposuction targets fat across the upper and lower abdomen to improve waistline definition. It is often chosen when skin elasticity is good and the main concern is stubborn fat. Upper Arms Liposuction reduces fat along the upper arm to create a slimmer arm profile. It can be combined with an arm lift when loose skin is the primary issue. Thigh & Hip Liposuction reshapes the outer hips and/or thighs to improve lower-body proportion. It is used to smooth bulges and enhance contour in clothing. Face & Neck Liposuction reduces submental (under-chin) or neck fat to sharpen the jawline and neck angle. It is selected when fullness is due to fat rather than significant skin laxity. Abdomen Tummy Tuck removes excess abdominal skin and tightens the abdominal wall to create a flatter, firmer midsection. It is often chosen after weight changes or pregnancy when loose skin does not respond to exercise. Arms Arm Lift removes excess skin and tissue from the upper arms to address sagging and improve arm shape. Incision placement and scar length depend on how much skin needs to be removed. Thighs & Hips Thigh Lift removes excess skin from the thighs to improve firmness and reduce rubbing or sagging. The surgical approach is selected based on whether the concern is mainly inner thigh, outer thigh, or both. Breast Surgery Breast Augmentation increases breast volume using implants to enhance size and shape. Implant type and placement are selected based on anatomy, goals, and desired profile. Breast Lift elevates and reshapes the breasts by addressing droop and repositioning the nipple-areola complex. It can be combined with augmentation or reduction depending on volume goals. Breast Reduction reduces breast size by removing excess tissue and reshaping the breast for improved proportion and comfort. It can help relieve physical symptoms associated with heavy breasts, such as shoulder and back strain. Gender-Affirming Chest Surgery (Top Surgery) FTM Top Surgery creates a flatter chest contour by removing breast tissue and resizing/repositioning the nipple-areola complex when needed. Technique choice depends on chest size, skin elasticity, and scar preference. MTF Top Surgery increases breast volume to create a more traditionally feminine chest shape, most commonly using implants. Planning focuses on implant selection, pocket placement, and symmetry. Other Treatments Varicose Vein Treatment addresses enlarged, visible veins to improve appearance and reduce symptoms such as heaviness or aching. Treatment method is selected based on vein size, location, and ultrasound evaluation. Hyperhidrosis Treatment targets excessive sweating to improve daily comfort and reduce clothing or social inconvenience. Options are chosen based on the affected area (such as underarms) and severity. Fat Grafting transfers purified fat from one area of the body to add volume or smooth contours in another area. It is commonly used for subtle shaping and requires adequate donor fat. Face Contouring focuses on reshaping facial proportions to create a more balanced outline and profile. Treatment planning is based on facial structure and desired changes to overall harmony.
