No personal experience but I know someone who has had it done in Canada. I am not sure what the process is for Korea but it is a very minimally invasive procedure that does give you some of the most natural results with minimal risk. Some even say it is less of a risk than botox.

There are so many clinics that work on noses, it is nuts! I know because this is something I have personally looked into. The trouble is picking out a clinic and I find it always helpful to contact them directly for the most up to date information. And always vet first! Make sure they meet the medical board standards for not only Korea but yourself.

It can be overwhelming. Going to another country for plastic surgery takes a lot of research and planning, I know! In terms of recommendations, I find that you will always find conflicting information. This is because some people are happy with their results and others are not. You will find this with local ones too. Like I am in the US for example and I can find the same conflicts for local plastic surgery clinics too. The best advice I can give you is to contact any plastic surgery clinic you have interest in and speak with them directly. Prices vary too from clinic to clinic so again, you will have to speak with them directly. I can make some recommendations of the top clinics to contact. Zero One Plastic Surgery is an example that gets high praise for their structured face work and they do work with foreigners. Vava Plastic Surgery is another that focuses on eye surgery, rhinoplasty, and lifting. Pop Plastic Surgery is another, again focusing on facial work. I would recommend compiling a list of the best clinics you can find online (ones you personally like the sound of) and contracting them for pricing as well as information for what you specifically want done. You can actually go to a local clinic first for a consultation to get a feel for it, see exactly what you want, and be better prepared to approach a Korean clinic.

I am curious to see how everything went! A friend of mine just got her nose done. She had a broken nose from an accident but couldn't fix the issues with it until it was fully healed and it took over a year. Anyways, her swelling was not bad at all. I was shocked. She looked worse after her accident.

I don't usually look into this specifically as most doctors can work with you in terms of giving you what you want, and the concept is to make it look as natural as possible in the first place. That being said I have seen a few that do specify it, one is Pride Plastic Surgery. I read that they focus mostly on natural-looking facial aesthetics. This can be down to them doing less invasive surgeries though.

I was going to mention certification. Outside of that you want to look into the staff and practices. Making sure their anesthesiologist is credible too, not just the surgeons. I have heard of people going overseas for dental work or other cosmetic work and finding out the nurse/doctor in charge of this care wasn't even licensed!

I was going to mention this clinic as I have read decent things online about them. I have not gone though so I can't say whether or not the information is true. You have to weed through a lot of posts and reviews as with everything else online, some of them are fake.

I was going to mention this because I saw it mentioned at a lot of the clinics I was looking into. I am not getting this kind of work done or anything but it seems very popular over there!

Both my consultations were about an hour but when I spoke to the doctor directly, it was about 10 to 15 minutes. The rest of the time I was speaking with other people that handle all the information.

That is the part I liked about it. You didn't feel like you were stuck without anything. If you wanted to stay in and cook a meal, you could. Made things so much easier

Sorry! I thought I had replied to this. I must have typed it out and not hit send and only realized it. Thanks for the information. I wanted to update and say I have had two virtual consultations and both were great. I just have to decide on the clinic.

Anything with rose water is said to be really beneficial. I know a lot of Korean beauty products have that as an ingredient but just straight rose water would probably be good. You can look into the benefits, they are tons!

Every one is a bit different but most people return to working no issue by 6 weeks and I would say even still, only a small percentage need a full 6 weeks. If you can get extra time off work, you may as well though even if you don't need it. I know I would

Basic scalp stem treatments are $500 to $2,500 depending on the clinic. For more advanced treatment, you are looking at up to $6,000 per session but the average tends to be around $3,200. Again, it depends on the clinic. I am not sure how you would go about booking something like this. I think you need to get the treatment done every 3 months so you would have to plan 3 trips for the year.

If you want an apartment style hotel, COEX Hub Stay is a good option. I believe it was $55 a night when I last checked. It may have gone up since then. You get extra room/space and a small functional kitchen and dining space.
