1-month update:
It's been a month already I can't believe it! I didn't notice before, but the swelling in the tip has gone down quite a bit compared to these other pictures. There is still a lot of swelling in the tip I think, but it continues to go down slowly day-by-day. I might post some better quality pictures soon because the lighting in my room is really bad (also I didn't shave, ignore that! lol).
Day 13 is today(12/6/18) so that's what it looks like currently. The tip is still super swollen, I can actually feel it when I touch it. I'm not the greatest at taking pictures so forgive me for that.
Hello, Purseforums. When I was choosing a clinic the reviews here were extremely helpful to me and ultimately a big factor of why I chose who I did. Originally when I was writing this I went into a ton of detail about my whole trip and recovery process, but it ended up being way too long so I’m rewriting it so it’s shorter and more simple. If anyone has any questions I’ll be more than happy to answer them.
I won’t go into too much detail about my selection process, but in the end the reason I chose View over other clinics was because of the good reviews, good results, and no accidents. When I was first looking into going to Korea I was going to go with an agency to help me out since I’m going alone. I ended up having issues with them and was forced to go alone. I was nervous at first because I had never been to a foreign country, but it ended up being not a big deal.
I had my consultation shortly after arriving in Korea. I had been in contact with Henry over Whatsapp before arriving, and he helped me locate the clinic when I got lost. One of my favorite things about View is how friendly and helpful the staff is. They treat you like a friend rather than just a customer. Any questions or concerns I had I could just message Henry about and I would receive a reply right away.
The doctor who performed my surgery was Dr. Yun Chan Woon. He explained what he was going to be doing and why in detail. He spoke English quite well, so a translator wasn’t really needed but there was always one present. A few days after the consultation I had my surgery. When I woke up Layton helped me walk to the elevator and go to my room so I could lay down. She also went to go get my medicine for me. People often say they feel horrible after GA, but I never really felt any effects. Maybe they were careful about how much they used, or my body just handled it well I’m not really sure. Anyway, after about 2 hours Layton helped me put my earrings back in, something I’m extremely grateful for, and helped me walk down to the first floor. She called a taxi for me and told them the address of my hotel.
The recovery process is more boring than anything so I won’t talk about it much. I never felt pain in my nose ever. The only thing that bothered me was having a dry mouth for a few days and a sore throat for about a week. I had a brief moments of post surgery depression, but I had to remind myself to be patient and Henry helped me feel better a lot. The results have been well worth it!
Again, if anyone has any questions or wants me to go into more details about certain parts please just ask. I wanted just to write a brief summary about my experience because I have the tendency to ramble if left unchecked. My experience with View was very positive and I would definitely recommend them to any of you. I'm still amazed by the results and they will only get better from here on.
I sent you a PM, I don't know if you've seen it yet. I'm actually going on the exact same day (the 20th) and leaving on the 5th. Just let me know if you're still looking for someone.
I'm going to be going to view in in about a week too! Reading this view is one of the factors that made me choose view actually. I'm super nervous though... I keep thinking "what if they mess up" over and over and I'm white/black and male so I keep thinking maybe they won't have as much experience on my type of face, but in the end I still want it done so I'm still going to go. If it turns out well maybe I'll post pictures too lol
