Thank you so much for the wonderful insight and advice. Yeah I tend to be the quiet type so I don't talk much so I guess I'll have to change that. Not much of a bargainer either lol.

I want to do primary double eyelid surgery and nose surgery so I haven't found anyone who has done primary at Dream yet to get a price from them.

 

Hey K Couture, I was wondering, are the prices for procedures at Dream really more expensive than other clinics? I know Dream is considered on the mid-high end but I'm not sure about their price range. Just wanted to see if I can actually afford them if I do actually go with them when I go to Korea for consultation. It would totally suck if they are the right one for me and I can't afford them lol.

 

Yeah that's exactly what I'm aiming for. I don't want to make my face any bigger, just make the face line even and fuller. I never thought that fg could make a face skinnier! I'm more intrigued now. However, I'm concerned about the absorption rate people talk about. I don't want to do it and then have to keep injecting.

 

I guess I will have to ask about that whenever I decide to go to Korea.

 

Do you guys think fg would make my face appear too big? That's my main concern.

 

Haha it's always nice to have more opinions~ I haven't considered fat grafting but is it possible to get fat graft for temples? I know there is fg for cheeks but not sure about temples.

 

Thank you so much for your advice, K Couture! I'm actually underweight and want to gain 20 lbs to reach at least 100 lbs. (I've always been stick thin so I don't even know how to go about that.) I know for sure I want nose and eyes done but I'm still undecided on zygoma. To me, they only stick out on the sides a little making my faceline uneven but by no means are they obnoxious. My face is quite slim now under the cheekbones bc of my weight so I was thinking of seeing if putting on weight to fill out my face and body would make them more suitable for me or if I would go ahead and get the zygoma reduction.

K Couture, do you think it's best to let the doctors tell you/give you suggestions on what you should have done to your face or should you have a sort of idea what procedure(s) you want to do? I just want my face to be harmonious but I'm not sure if I should consider a procedure such as zygoma reduction or jaw shaving. I look at my face in the mirror and I'm not really sure if the procedure will make my face look better or worse. Oh and should we be at a weight we are happy with before we think about getting ps? I'm thinking if we decide to gain or lose weight after, it would affect how we look right?

 

I don't have a substantial bite, but I will take your suggestion into consideration. It's because I'm going to Korea in a months time and will be staying for two months so that will be the only time I can really get anything done. I'm not planning on getting all 3 at the same time bc I do not have money for all three and I was gonna separate them anyways into nose and eyes together, and jaw.

 

I can give you the link if you pm me. You would have to sign up for an account and also the posters on the cafe do not give out info related to which clinics they went to publicly so you have to ask for it.

Thank you so much! Yes, I'm only going to do normal jaw reduction just to soften out the back of my jaw and hopefully reduce my cheekbones too. I totally agree that going to places that are more specialized in their area will give good results and you might like the work of one doctor in a clinic but not the work of another doctor in the same clinic.

 

I am actually relying on personal stories of Korean people on a Korean cafe but I know the b&a should not decide generally if i go toward a clinic or not.

 

Thank you for the insight! I'm actually still figuring out what procedures I want and those three are the ones I know I definitely want. I actually want to hold off on jaw because I also plan to get braces so I don't know if it would affect how my jaw is. I am more concerned about my eyes and nose though. I'm actually pretty satisfied with my nose front profile wise but not side profile wise. My forehead juts out more towards my eyebrows so my bridge is low and my tip is not high. (Also considering zygoma reduction)

I also think getting jaw surgery is a big change and so I'm looking around to see which clinic suites me the most. From what I've seen the jaw from some clinics look good to me but I do not like their b&a for eyes and nose, that's why I'm considering going to diff clinics. Also, I feel like my eyes are diff from most asians so I don't know if I should go more towards caucasian or asian double eyelids. My mom has natural caucasian-like eyelids so i don't have the typical monolid. My crease does not stay in place but when i open my eyes I do see it. Sorry for the long ramble!

 

I would love to but bc of money constraints and the prospect of going to different clinics for jaw and eye/nose, I was wondering which should come first.

 

So I have been pondering this for a while and decided to make a thread today. Does the order of your surgeries matter? Like if you wanted to do eyes, nose, and jaw, would you do eyes and nose first before jaw or jaw first before eyes and nose? Is it just a matter of preference or a specific order you have to go in?

 

I'm thinking about getting v line after all of my other surgeries but as I am a bit underweight, if I get v-line, would it matter if I were to gain weight before or after? Like would the surgery be a waste or can I just go ahead and get it? I want to gain like 10+ pounds to get to a healthy weight.

 

Oh okay thank you~ I want to get LASIK and then double eyelid a month after but I will ask the doctor~

 

Anyone know whether getting LASIK surgery first or double eyelid first is better? And how far apart I should wait to get them?

 

Ooh looks nice. I'll check it out in a bit. Yeah I'm not really sure yet so I think it's best just to go in for consultation and see what each doctor suggests and find out which doctor I feel suits my taste.

 

I haven't heard of Braun. Are they any good from what you've seen?

 

What a coincidence! I know there are a lot of older forumers and so it's good to be able to connect to people the same age as me.

I think Sulli and Krystal have really harmonious features so I hope to be able to attain a well balanced face like them. Also, I think bringing a picture will help the doctor see a little of your vision so that's what I will do. Working with a student budget is always hard but I think this is what I really want to do.

 

Their website is bnaclinic.com but you need an account to view the pictures.

I don't think they manage Sulli and Krystal's image but I know she managed 2ne1 and SNSD's image.

 

Ooh View is one of my top choices so I will be checking them out when I go. Good luck on your surgery. Hope everything goes well.

So, I've narrowed down my list of clinics to check out and they are: View, Teium, Item, and Before&After. Heard and seen a lot about the first three but not so much the last one. However, the lady who does Idol imagemaking started up the clinic so I thought I'd include it in my list.

I really like Krystal's eyes and her side profile. Lol but I don't think I can raise my nose that high. I know some people bring in pics of people they like and the doctors discourage it, but what if it's just to show them what we like and not necessarily a guide for exactly replicating that person's features? I was thinking of bringing in a few pictures of different idols that I liked to the clinics.

 

Anyone gone to Before&After clinic before? If so, was the price range okay and how were the results?

 

I'm considering ITEM along with VIEW after seeing the excellent results. I was wondering about price. Has any forum member been quoted for double eyelid and/or rhino?

 

Yeah I think I'll just hope for the best and go for the consultation in Korea during the summer.

Wow that's a lot. I'm hoping I can negotiate the price down to where I really can afford to pay for it.
