Hey, I can't find the file attached option to send pictures. P.M me your e-mail address so I can mail them to u instead!

For those who want to see my before and after picture, P.M me your email address! Note that I'm just nearly 2 weeks post-op therefore the result are not final yet so don't make any conclusion through my picture right away. It will have to be after 6 months to make any judgement.

Cheers

 

Hey, I P.M you already!

 

If you have the proof then why don't you sue him for fail marketing reasons? That's so illegal for a doctor to do that! Why not sending your story to the press?

 

I'm not in her position to know how bad her face is to answer this question. But I guess I wouldn't go with that many procedures at once to begin with because I'm fully awared that most of clinics would suggest a hundred of unecessary surgeries for paitients to squeeze the rest of moneys from our pockets.
On the other hands, there will always be a chance plastic surgery goes wrong. Doctors are humans too, they makes mistakes! One accepted going under a surgery should aslo be accepting the fact there might always be a chance of revision. The only thing is to make sure the doctor will give you a free revision if something goes wrong. Record it, tape the conversation, paper sign, etc. Do whatever u think could be a prove later on!

 

Not two jaw, I don't dare to go for that kind of super invasive surgery. I did mini V-line. Are u seriously want to do the 2 jaws? I did only mini V-line but I thought I was going to die after woked up from the surgery. I saw other people who was hospitalized the same day as me with fully bandage on their face, blood drain tube coming out from their mouth, slow breathing. Looks like their breath could be taken away any time. It was really scary, like they have been to a serious car accident or falling from the 3rd floor building.
If u don't work in entertainment business or super duper ugly that you have to wear a mask when seeing people then I don't think you should go for that kind of madness procedure.

 

Hey, keep in mind that most of those who have good experiences will not be sharing their trips on this forum. Only those who want to complaint would go for posting. People like to complaint!

ID is one of the most popular clinic, they do a plenty of cases therefore there will be a successful cases and failed cases. I'm lucky to be the satisfied case (result not yet but at least the service they provided) therefore I've the right to write my experiences too. I don't get a damn penny from ID to do this!

People need to have more sources to get the right choices. Not only based on one or two experiences to accused a clinic being evil.

I have turningpoint and ecofriendly those who have met me and could be witness for me.

One more thing, as I have mentioned on my experiences posts on the thread "Best Plastic Surgery Clinics in Korea", ID was out of my list before due to itsumobaby's thread. But I have a friend who have just been joined in ID team for about a month and she assured me dr. Park is the one who do the surgery for me. I trusted my friend and I would never think that nice doctor I met would go beyond his words. Besides, they are the only clinic that suggested me mini V-line (lowest cost) comparing to other clinics - two jaw surgery, V-line which I didn't think I need to have.

 

Yes, I went to ID. It has been nearly a week since the surgery but my face is still pretty swollen. I can't say I'm totally happy with the result right away before 6 months but with the service in ID I could confirm it directly they provide top-notch service. I could send you a private message of my before & after picture if u want to.

 

Is there anyone have done the facial bone contouring and have any tips for weight control after the surgery? I have done mine for a few days ago, I couldn't eat anything more than just liquid foods and I'm losing weight like crazy now... I'm so worry for the recovery processes with this kind of poor calories foods.

 

Sorry to hear about your experience with ID hospital, itsumobaby! I just did a mini V-line in ID a few days ago and I liked the service very much, they seems to be quite professional. Besides, Dr. Park seems to be an honest man as he wasn't like what I imagined through your post.

 

Before the surgery day I caught a cold and rested in the room the whole day. Luckily I didn’t have any fever.
On the surgery day: I came early at 8:30 in the morning. Paid, changed to hospital clothes, went to the room to wait for dr. Park. I even brought ”Absolut Vodka” for him as a present. Haha… Hopefully, he wasn’t drunk before my surgery, just kidding!
He came in the room, design my face, told me once again what he is going to do. Then they brought me to the huge machine to clean up bacteria on my bodies, then to the general aesthesia room. What a nightmare having that huge needle trying to go under my vein for 3 times. Ouch…that was ****ty hurt!
After the GA went into my body I just totally knocked out!
The next thing I know is a nurse trying to wake me up at around 12:30. That was the worst feeling ever in my life after waking from the GA. Frozen, shaking like a rat, super week, so sleepy, dizzy. Thought I have been dying and being born again… I know already now that after this experience I will never go under GA ever again in my life.
They got me on the wheelchair and drag me to the resting room. I was so tired and my friend came in said I would be discharged at 15:00. No way!!! I’m weak that I couldn’t even talk. So they let me stay in the hospital for the night. The first 5 hours was the worst ever since I have to keep my self being awaked while being so sleepy from the GA. I was indeed scarred. There was a guy in the next door also having facial bone contouring walking around in the hallway to avoid sleepiness, funny I thought, like a mummy with full of bandages on his face. I thought I could have done the same thing after 2 hours but I was too weak though.
Then turningpoint and ecofriendly came in to visit me. They were a bit surprised seeing me lying on the bed being weak, swollen like have been in a car accident. What a torture! I think my Rhinoplasty and eye surgery were nothing comparing to this.
After 6 hours I’m allowed to drink, and the nurse came in to check me up every hour. Have to admit that they are pretty professional and gentle. What a relived that I’m in good hand!
The next day (this morning) I was being discharged from the hospital. Paid around 60,000 KRW for the medicine since it’s not included in the price. The nurse explained clearly and slowly how to post-care my self and using medicines. Then they brought me to the X-ray room to scan again so that doctor can take a look at it. After that dr. Park and dr. Lee Taesung came into my room to check. Dr. Park asked how I was and answering some of my questions then rushing to the other patient next door. Dr. Lee checked the wound in my mouth and said everything looks fine then wished me a speedy recovering then went away.
After that, I got a facial treatment, the nurse came in cleaned my face and gave me a mask. They sent me a limousine back to the hotel together with a package of pumpkin juice.
My next appointment will be on Thursday and my deary friend managed to book an unlimited limousine pick up for my whole trip to and from the hospital. So I will have a free pick-up all the time. That was so sweet of her.
Anyway, for those who are not super ugly (big and angle face) I wouldn’t suggest to go for this kind of invasive bone surgery. But for those who really need it and want it then ID hospital in my experience would be one of a good place to go for. Will keep you guys update for the result!

 

Hey, it supposed to be 10 million KRW for V-line if pay with card. Type error, sorry!

 

Hi all, so after the butchering day I'm now still alive and fully capable of writing some reviews of the entire clinics I have been to. My main purpose of this Seoul 2nd visit is for the nose revision in JW and facial contouring. Luckily, on the arrival day JW provided limousine pick-up service, even though the flight was late for an hour but when I got to the airport the pick-up man was still there waiting for me.

After that I ran directly to High Land hotel, left the luggage and to Regen consultation. Note that I'm staying with turningpoint. She came to Seoul 1 day before me.

Ok, here comes the consultation part:

Regen: they have their own big building, fancy lobby, and quite a good-looking clinic, many Korean customers around. I was waiting for around 10 mins then there was a translator lady calls Chang-mi brought me to the X-ray scanning room. The good thing was I didn't have to pay for the examination fees. After X-ray scanning I got to meet dr. Oh Myung June (one of the three chief surgeon in Regen), he speak pretty good English. First he said if I want to achieve a perfect balance face then two-jaw surgery would be the most suitable one. But I refused since it's too expensive and invasive surgery for me. Then he mentioned the second option would be v-line surgery to give a baby face and fix the asymmetrical on my face somehow. He explained very carefully what he would do and the disadvantages. V-line could cause sagging problem so there might be a chance I have to come back one year later to have the laser treatment, plus in case if there is any infection from the screw (which rarely happened) then I have to come back also a year later to take it out since the bone is already heal them self. He showed me some of his patient who went under V-line and they were all look a lot better comparing to the before picture. Well, he seems to be an honest guy and I was pretty comfortable with him.
Price: 1 million KRW for V-line if pay with card, 9 million KRW if pay in case.

Face-line: a pretty small clinic close by JW, looks old to me (like 90s style) and there was a few Korean waiting for the turn for consultation before me, it was at 18:00. I came there with a Korean friend to help me to translate since they don’t have an English speaker there. Examination fees were 10.000 KRW. My friend said it seem like they have three main doctor there and they are known for “making” baby face types. I met with the doctor, he is around in his mid 40s but unfortunately I didn’t remember his name since everything was in Korean. He also thought I need a two jaw surgery to achieved the baby face but I refused. The he suggested mini V-line. Since I will be doing sliding Genioplasty to push the chin forward therefore there will be no sagging problem, unlikely those who want to advance the chine smaller.
Price: 8,5 million KRW for a mini V-line!?! No way, this is too expensive for me plus I don’t want to go for facial bone contouring in such a small clinic. So this is out of my list.

Dream: medium size clinic close to JW as well. The decoration is so white that totally remind me about the hospital. There was around 7 Korean waiting in the lobby. Examination fees: 50.000 KRW. A bit expensive but I have a friend (cherrykiss) who did her two-jaw surgery in Dream and quite satisfy with the result therefore I paid anyway. Then I met dr. Kim Young Joon. He just got out of the surgery room therefore I still could feel the rubber gloves smell on his hand. He seems to be a very confident doctor and I liked him too but not as much as the doctor in Regen. He suggested V-line for me.
On the other hand, the consultation girl was a pain in the *** when I told her I’m going to give them my decision after visiting ID hospital. Then she said with her bad English accent: “ID no good, Dream is-za better”… She wasn’t so friendly either.
Price: 10 million KRW for V-line, doesn’t matter paying in cash or card. No bargain!

ID hospital: this clinic was out of my list long time ago since I read itsumobaby and Iann reviews about their horror stories with ID. But I decided to give it a chance since I have a friend who is working in ID then she assured me there is no way that such thing as switching to junior doctor in the operation room, they don’t even have any junior doctor in the clinic anyway. Well, well, ok give it a chance I decided!

Big clinic, nice decoration and sleek. The crow is mixed with Korean and Chinese. I met a Korean lady who had a Rhinoplasty in ID and she was looking pretty angry and told me she didn’t like the result. But I think her nose look fine to me though.

The examination fees were 25.000KRW. Then I met with Euna, an English speaker consultation girl in ID. She speaks perfect English. We waited for pretty long (nearly an hour) to see dr. Park Sang Hoon. Heard that he is a super busy man. Then he came in the room with a smile and reading my file, asking how I am doing, blah blah blah… Wow, he is so friendly, speak very good English, totally different from my imagination in the review of these horror stories. He suggested a mini V-line for me. But I asked if I should opt for the V-line instead. He replied it depend on where I am come from if people would mind about the wide face but in general he thinks mini V-line is enough for me. Then he explained in detail what he is going to do and confirmed that infection from the screws should be very minimal. In case, that does happened I could go back to their clinic after 6 months to take them out without any charge. In the end I even asked: “Will you be the only one who do my surgery from A to Z?” then he replied “Of course, I will do everything for you!”.
Price: 6 million KRW won for mini V-line but since I have a friend working in ID, through her I will be able to get 20% discount.

I was so torn between Regen and ID hospital, I like them both doctors. But my friend who work in ID, Nicole and turningpoint didn’t think I need a V-line. Therefore my final decision is to do the mini V-line in ID hospital with dr. Park. Then I went to take the blood test and CT-scan again.

My friend told me, in most of the clinic in Korea there would be two doctors doing the surgery. The main doctor doing the operation and the other doctor just doing the stitching as the last step. Don’t know if it is really true working that way but I feel safe with ID anyway.

 

The other day I was in the subway station and kinda realised there was a BK advertising picture of dan4me who claimed that she had the surgery in BK Dond Yang for facial bone contouring. I remember her post long time ago because I was quite impressed of her result. Wonder why some people mentioned she was a pretentious poster?

Hi all, I'm in Seoul now with turning point, hopefully will be able to meet JJ101 as well. I have been to a person consultation at Regen, Face-line, Dream, and ID hospital for facial contouring. Finally decided to have a mini V-line in ID hospital. Going to keep ya guys updated about the consultation and surgery after it's done! (^_^)

 

itsumobaby: Thank you for warning us about this. I was planning to head to ID in July for my facial bone contouring but I decided to skip that.
In my opinion, it would be great to have a complaination board about these evil clinics, so that everyone could learn from and advoiding.
I will cross my finger for you. Keep us updated please!

Wonder if any of you here has ideal or have heard about facial bone contouring in JW clinic with Dr. Seul Chul-Hwan? Any comment would be appreciated!

 

Just p.m. you! Check you inbox please!

 

Wow, I wouldn't have the nerve like her to be awake while people butchering me. I did mine in JW and had the IV drip sedation which knocked me out completely but I still got freak out when I woke up.
First night after the surgery I thought I was going to die alone in the hotel... even though my case was considering to be successful and the service was top-notch.

Before went to S.Korea I had been considering Yanhee or Bumrungrad in Bangkok as well. But it seem like the style just doesn't fit me, they seem to make the nose too western-looking (pointy, too high, unnatural) and unfit to asian features. Besides, some of people I know had eyes, nose, facial bone contouring done at Dr. Juta (Bumrungrad) and Greechart (Yanhee) seem to have quite a ladyboy-like face. Even though they look pretty but not as natural and cute like Korean style. It is not much cheaper in Bumrungrad compare to Korean's clinic (dr.Jung, dr.Suh, dr.Lee) though.
If I were you I would rather save up to go to S.Korea instead (which I did a year ago).

 

Totally agree with your opinion. Even if it's for free there's no way I would do a surgery in Vietnam. Yuckkk!

Watch out, girls! You always get what you paid for.

 

Looking for someone/a group to buddy up in June/ July to Seoul

My plan is to be in S.Korea for about 2 weeks to do the chin advancement (or V-line) and revision Rhinoplasty.

My ideal is either we could share a room or staying close by (in the same hotel) so that we could help each other out, especially the few nights after the operation. I have been on my own the first time in Seoul a year ago to do Rhinoplasty and Blepharoplasty, the night after the surgery was awful to be alone as I have experienced.

By the way, I will be flying from Europe.

Feel free to p.m me so we can talk more about this!

It seem like I have similar problem (small chin and small mandible bone). I am planning to go to Seoul in June - July to fix my chin, may be go for a chin advancement in ID hospital.
By the way, I think you are pretty enough, no surgery is needed!

 

Sure, I will keep everyone updated! Hopefully, this will be the last time my nose being operated.
