You won't get a clear price without doing a consultation. To give you an idea, liposuction costs range from $1,500 to $3,500 for single areas, $4,000 to $8,000 for multi-area packages, and $6,000 to $12,000 for full-body procedures, with VASER techniques adding 20–30% to the base price. This is standard for South Korea. Prices can vary and things can cost most but you will have to get in touch with a clinic. I would contact a few and set up consultations and compare prices and surgeries and pay attention to after care too!

I should do this as well with my process. I am going to be following this. I want to see how everything goes for you. I have seen so many lack-luster reviews and experiences that leave out too much information. You are including everything which I really appreciate.

Most of the time you do have to pay again. This is why it is important to really plan ahead and not change dates. Some will overlook it if you reschedule in the first week or 2 of booking your appointment but this is assuming it is months away still. They don't like to have people changing dates cause it costs them time and money if they can't fill those slots.

Isn't Pop PS where Dr. Sang-il Kim used to be? I was looking into some clinics and I remember reading something about him formally being associated with this clinic. He is over at Vava PS now. Just doing some digging on a few doctors I am considering.

Threading sounds rather painful. I know surgery tends to be but you expect it. For a light procedure, getting threading just sound unappealing to me

WillBe seems to be pretty popular on Reddit. While I have never been here, I see a lot of people on the platform talking about it. Something that is good to know is that they speak fluent English there. This is something I know a lot of people worry about when looking into Korean clinics as not all of them are fluent. Also, in case you are wondering their main focuses are double eyelid surgery, facial fat grafting, and under-eye revision. So what you are looking for they have a lot of expertise in!

I have heard of it but never knew it had a name for it. This is something I am going to keep in mind, thanks for the information!

I am helping a friend narrow down some options for getting her breasts done. She wants a bit of restricting for her nipples as well as small implants. She lost a lot of confidence in her breasts since having her twins. Saying that they feel/look saggy, dis-formed, and her nipples never went back down to size even though her breasts have shrank. So I was looking into a number of clinics in Korea that offers breast work and from my understanding, both Pride Plastic Surgery and View Plastic Surgery offer breast implants as well as restructuring. I want to find some key differences for her to compare. Costs, doctor experience, things like that. Any help with be appreciated!

This is for sure a smaller clinic though, that is something to keep in mind. Also, zero1 ps tends to focus on nose and eye work. They do offer grafting but it may not be a specialty, it would have to be something that needs to be looked into more. Things get lost in translation online.

I am terrible and figuring out if reviews are legit or not. I have been duped a number of times with buying items online. So when it comes to something more serious, like plastic surgery, I don't want to be falling for fake reviews. What are some red flags I should look for when reading through them?

A lot of people in Korea get work done and walk around with bandages and swollen faces. People tend not to care because they are used to seeing people like this. But if you are concerned with how you feel more than how you look, you can go a bit earlier to have to time to do things.

I guess that is fair. Cities do tend to be busy everywhere. But I am guessing this comes down to time management. If you are used to being in a city, it would not matter as much.

I usually just check on Trip Advisor and other similar sites for stuff like this as you get mostly real reviews from real people. According to them, GLAD Gangnam COEX Center is the best but I would imagine it is a more expensive one by the looks of it!

A friend had lipo for love handles done and she said it was the most expensive lipo at the clinic she went to. This was in Canada. I am not sure what makes that one of the more expensive ones there but not in Korea. Maybe the tools and methods they use?

I read it mostly doesn't. This was something I was curious about. Everything seems to be fairly close so just leaving on time would or should be enough but I guess if you want to be sure or have less travel time between surgery and your hotel, it can't hurt to find something close by.
