  1. thanks for sharing all this, seriously super helpful esp for those of us considering a combo like lip lift + tip plasty. i’ve heard a few ppl mention that doing the lip lift alone can mess w/ the nose tip aesthetics so it makes sense your doc recommended both. sounds like your surgeon was being really cautious about proportions which is honestly a green flag i remember reading it took them like 2-3 months before they could smile naturally again after their lip lift, and even then it was gradual. the tightness sounds super normal tho especially only one month post-op, you’re still really early curious to hear how your nose settles too! “cindy lou" pretty soon you'll be like "cindy who?" it usually drops by 1-3 months right, and gradually settles around 6. i wouldn’t stress too much yet appreciate the update, keep us posted if you feel like it!
  2. i’ve been looking into LASIK for a while now and wanted to find out where actual Koreans go, not just the usual gangnam clinics that are all over the ads for foreigners. started digging around on naver (with a lot of help from papago lol) and noticed that a lot of locals seem to go to bigger hospital-level eye centers outside of the gangnam area 서울신세계안과 (Shinsegae Eye Clinic) near miasageori station kept coming up, seems like they get a ton of local patients and have a decent rep for LASIK/LASEK and even ICL stuff. i reached out on kakao and they actually connected me to someone who spoke english, which was a nice surprise has anyone here gotten LASIK or LASEK done there recently? how was the screening process, tech they use, overall experience, pricing, and if they try to upsell or not? just trying to get a better sense of what to expect before i book a consult. https://www.ssgeye.com/
  3. thanks for sharing!! i’ve been lowkey curious about Retmus for lip lift too so this was super helpful. sounds like you had a smooth surgery + recovery (minus the expected stiffness) how’s the scar looking now? are you doing anything specific for scar care like silicone gel or laser later on? also did dr the give any feedback about how the corner lift + lip lift would balance with the tip plasty? i’ve seen a few people on here mention they were worried about the philtrum looking too short post-op if they did both, so just wondering how he approached that with you?
  4. Hi everyone, I’m seriously considering getting double jaw surgery in Korea and would love to hear from anyone who has gone through it. I’m especially curious about: • Which clinics or surgeons you recommend (and which to avoid) • What the consultation process was like • How much it cost, including any hidden or aftercare fees • What recovery was like, such as pain, swelling, and downtime • Any tips you wish you knew beforehand I’m open to both medical and aesthetic reasons. Just trying to gather as much real insight as I can before making a decision. Thanks in advance for any advice or experience you can share.
