you look great!

 

thanks for creating this thread. I feel like there are not many reliable clinics left though

 

I'm happy for you! Let us know how it goes! How much did you pay may i ask?

 

Don't be discouraged, please keep us updated about your recovery... I was told by Laprin that I can get a 10% discount if I write a review afterwards, and they were very straight forward, saying that I should write an honest review even if I'm not happy with the procedure. I also remember reading a post from a reviewer on here (who only had 1 post, right after she registered) that she was not very happy with her result since she doesn't look any different after the surgery... So I dont know but I have a good feeling with this clinic from day 1

 

Yep. I still hope I can fly within March, if the situation gets better. However it doesn't seem to be... from what i see from the last few days.

 

The clinics I talked to have no drop in price for now, so I don't know what will happen afterwards. Are you traveling soon?

 

Hi, I wanna go to Laprin for stem cell fat graft on face, do you think they are good at that too? It's so hard to find a reliable clinic that does fat graft with stem cell, so just wanna know your take on this... Also, are there a lot of locals at their clinic?

 

I officially canceled my flight today. Feel so disheartened especially when I got everything prepared. But it's ok. Just think of all those people who are suffering there in SK... I guess pushing back a flight date to "fix my problem" is a small matter compared to what they're going through.

 

I'm still going to Seoul on Feb 26 regardless of the Corona outbreak. Please connect if you're there too!

 

Looking forward to your updates!!!

 

Hi, just came across your post... I had a similar situation, first I got chronic insomnia and then depression not so long after that, due to being so attached to how "beautiful" I used to look (I used to have a very pretty face, then boom, insomnia, dark circles, sagging skin, gaunt, old-looking face all at once!!!). Both of these problems, insomnia and depression do cause a vicious cycle which affects the immune system, and therefore my overall look (especially my skin, my eyes and around eyes area) has started getting worse and worse by days. I've tried everything under the sun, and my insomnia is still here. I slowly realized it's something out of my control, to be able to sleep normally again.

I'm also thinking of PS to help with this (I'm going to Korea this Feb for stem cell fat graft) but my suggestion is that you need to tackle the problem from its root before doing anything else...

We will all look old and ugly at some point, that's the law of impermanence (lol, I'm a Buddhist so I really sound like one here), no matter how many times we go under the knife. To learn how to live happily from the inside regardless of external conditions (like looking good, being able to sleep, having good career, having good family, ect.) is much more important. I know it's easier said than done, but I once went through a terrible time (suicidal depression) so I totally know how it feels. Now I still have insomnia, and I still look terrible, but my depression is not that severe anymore, and I actually enjoy my life much more than before. May be take a step back and invest in yourself first, learn how to live mindfully in every moment, then it still won't be too late to invest in some plastic surgery later? That way you will feel much more grounded. That way you won't have to be dependent (again) on another external condition to be able to feel good about yourself

Anyway, I started a thread regarding undereye fat repositioning, you can visit if you wish. Depression is not understandable for most people, and I want to give you a big hug. Be strong!

 

Hey thanks!!! When are you planning to go? I'll be there from Feb 26 to Mar 5. Still narrowing down my list of clinics to visit. I'm scared!!!

 

Thank you so much for the review. How long did it take for the bruises under your eyes to subside? Also, do you know what kind of procedure did they perform? Was it regular fat graft or stemcell fat graft? Thanks in advance

 

I'm glad to hear, and I'm sure you know what's best for you too! I'm flying to Korea, probably end of February -beginning of March for the procedure. Just wondering if you already had your surgery done? If not, and if you are coincidentally in Seoul around that time, it would be nice to catch up!

 

I plan to go to SK next Feb by the way. Hopefully I won't need to hold this off again due to my weird work schedule.

 

Hey Lia please me know when you have the procedure and how it goes! I changed my mind and thought stem cell fat graft might be enough for my case. The more I think about under eye fat repositioning, the less confident I feel about this surgery- how invasive it would be for my 34-year-old skin, plus the eye bags will come back anyway based on other women's reviews.

I actually have Seb Derm (a dermatitis caused by malassezia on oily skin people) and once in a while my face gets swelling due to the seb-derm flare-ups. I just had one flareup 2 months ago (irritant ingredient in my skincare), then I realized even just a little bit of swelling on my facial skin helps make my dark circles disappear. That's why I think stem cell fat graft is good enough, I still need to meet the doctor in person to confirm this though.

Of course I'll need to go through a lot of clinics F2F consultations before making a decision, but I'm really interested in Laprin for now. They seem to be honest, never talk me into unnecessary procedures and if they are not sure about something they always say they need to see me in person to give the precise solution. Also their price is local price, they don't charge foreigners double or triple like many other clinics.

Please keep us updated!

 

So are you considering under eye fp done 2nd time?

 

Hi do you think they are good with eyes too? I'm really interested in them for their stem-cell fat grafting, but I also want to have my eye bags fixed so I'm just wondering if they are a reliable place to go... thanks!

 

Uhmm this is really opposite to what I thought, thank you for the suggestion, I'll look more into it. So I guess your eye bags are back after 3 years and look worse than before?

 

Looks awesome! How do you rate your bag's severity on a 1-10 scale before surgery? I don't have a lot of fat so my guess is I need some fat grafting too...

 

is your ethnicity vietnamese? What procedure have you done besides liposuction? I think you look great I'm thinking of double chin liposuction too!

 

Thanks for sharing, your eye bags looked much better than mine

 

Your nose looks so much better now, congratulations!!! As for the dark circles, what percentage of improvement have you got compared to pre-op?

 

Thanks! I consulted with many clinics and most of them warned me that they can't fix pigmentation by fat repositioning. They can help with eye bag though. I somehow think that eye bags do contribute to the "dark ring" appearance too, as they cast shadow over the skin beneath; thats why I believe having the bags themselves eliminated can help a lot with improving "dark circles"...

 

I'm the other way around. I wish to have chubby face but no matter how much I gain weight, the fat just accumulates around my belly/thighs/buttocks. I look weird with chubby body and super skinny face. That's why I think I fall into those types of girls whose fat grafting on face won't help, most of the fat will end up absorbing.
