Oh ok. It just sounds so scary to me, that's all, or maybe I would be more nervous than what you were. I'm considering getting my bulbous nose re-done by him but not so sure and it will be using rib cartilage too. I've seen the before/after photos on their website, their ok but nothing to shout about, it's just so hard with the budget I'm on.

 

Hello
Sorry I know this is a very old thread but I was reading your surgery day experience with Dr Suh and you said quote :
When I woke up, I could hear voices talking and Dr. Suh doing the osteotomy. I fidgeted a little cos I have the protruding tailbone and I hardly ever lie flat on my back haha. I got told by the nurse immediately to stay still. Anyway, they soon finished and it was around 8pm. They said the surgery went smoothly so I was relieved. I went back to my guesthouse and rested.

Does that mean you woke up in the middle of him performing surgery? Whilst you were under general anesthesia?
Seems quite alarming to me .

 

Ohh really !!! have you booked yet ?

 

Ohh wow that's a lot, may I ask how much are you paying for all surgeries?
I'm hoping to go in November but I'm just worried about all this quarantine business because staying for 4 weeks + is going to be more hassle.
You are brave to be getting all those surgeries, is it your first time? Are they going to perform the surgeries all in one session ? What's love band ?
That's good about the meals, TV and wifi. At least the Korean government are trying to look after the foreigners even though we are paying anyway lol. Is it ready made Korean food ?
Thanks for responding to me btw. Hope all your surgeries are a success, good luck. Xxx

 

And you can't choose where you go can you ? Like which district I mean. How often do they deliver you food ,do you know? I'm a big eater I am. Can't believe you're going through with this right now, I'll soon be the same probably in November if policy doesn't change. Did you go alone ? Its so expensive too 3,000,000 won for 2 people 2 weeks !!!!!
At least they guide you properly, I thought I would get lost knowing me and my confusion. Hope you are ok there and settling in, is there a TV? What surgery you getting and where? If it wasn't for my desperation to get surgery then no way I would wanna go there in November.

 

That's a pain. What about food, do they send you some and wifi? I saw on the government website that you have to make your own way to the accommodation and get tested in the designated district you are in, did you manage ok with the directions?

 

Is anyone still travelling to Korea for surgery in spring/summer 2020. Since the new quarantine rules have been implemented by the government I am not so sure?

 

Yes please share a before and after photo if you can. I have a bulbous nose too but had my rhino done at banobagi, I did look into jayjun but was frightened as it is not as popular as the other clinics. I'm booked in to go for revision rhino in June 2020 with ID hospital.

 

I'm going for surgery at ID hospital in Seoul, will be there from 14th June 2020 -
1st July 2020, if anyone's interested in meeting up ? Let me know. I'll be there with my boyfriend but we can still hang out and share our experiences, we're both quite friendly and i think my boyfriend might fly back after 1 week so I'll be alone . I'm staying in gangnam but we can always go look around, go shopping, sightseeing, restaurants etc.

 

Zygoma reduction + Angular jaw correction + Genioplasty and bone graft was £13,880 with discount of 15 %. It also depends on which doctor you saw and I saw Dr oh who is renowned and every case is different. Not everyone is going to pay the same price it depends on your own personal circumstances and needs.

 

I just checked and I spent £18,420 to be exact and that is without the laser treatments. Price breakdown: £4,540 for rhinoplasty, alar base reduction and accusculpt and £13,880 for v line and bone graft of chin. I saw Dr lee for nose and Dr Oh for v-line. Hope this helps makes things clearer for you, if you require further help then let me know.

 

I don't know where and what clinic you saw v-line for 4k us dollars but for me as a foreigner they charged me 17,18 million won for v-line surgery and that's through the medical tourism agency Doc Finder. I did get a discount for all of my surgeries so it was roughly £23 k overall not to be too exact, I did have a bit of change left over. Maybe they over price foreigners, I have heard some foreign people experience this too.

 

Also rhinoplasty and some laser treatments.

 

Hi chigirl1972
Sorry I know this is an old post but I'm hoping you will be able to reply. I have been through a similar situation to you. I had v-line surgery in april 2018 at banobagi along with accusculpt Lipo on my cheeks and under chin they also failed to warn me about any skin sagging post-op. I am now 4.5 months post op and I have saggy, droopy jowls and prominent nasalobial folds. You mentioned you got a smas facelift and cheek lift did I.d hospital do that for you? And did they offer to do this for free or did you have to pay ? And if so how much? I went through doc Finder the medical tourism agency for my surgery with banobagi so I hope they will provide me with some assistance when the time is needed. I spent all of my savings of £23,000 so I don't know how I will afford a cheek/face lift but I cannot live with a saggy face either, I'm only 36 and look like a 46 year old. Doc Finder said I should wait another 2 months to see if it heals if not then I hope they can do something for me because I am stressing out like mad. I've waited 36 years for my plastic surgery transformation and now i feel more ugly than before.
