Ablative lasers like mentioned above can be tricky. You will look and feel it for weeks. I'd recommend non-Ablative Lasers: Fraxel, ResurFX, or IPL. Healing time is under 10 days, sometimes 5 days depending on what you have done. You see results faster and you don't have to worry about sensitive skin for weeks.

No personal experience but I have read and seen positive results from EverM Dental. I met someone through a Facebook group that had double jaw work done and she looks fantastic!

I see a lot of people talk about this online but I want to get an idea of what the key differences are. Like for someone looking for a mid-sized clinic, I see a lot of mentions for NOTE Plastic but when it comes to larger clinics, often refereed to as factory size or just factory clinics, people mention AB Plastic or JK Plastic. Can someone explain what the differences are outside of the size? Are there any costs differences? Is one better than the other for foreigners?

Wow okay, this is something I didn't know about I am glad I mentioned it cause I would have felt stupid thinking they had some sort of membership plastic surgery clinics or something haha!

I am in the US so I will post a page about this with the American Board of Cosmetic Surgery. https://www.americanboardcosmeticsurgery.org/cosmetic-procedures/non-surgical/skin-tightening/ It outlines various procedures, options, risk, etc. so you get a better idea of what this is and what it looks like. Radiofrequency (RF) treatments might be something you should consider based on what you mentioned. I am not sure which doctors offer it in Korea but this is the results of it being done on loose skin on the back:

I think this sounds like a good idea. Even if you don't need the extra time, it helps to get to know the area before you go under the knife. You don't want to be lost or confused and have bandages all over you face, making it harder to talk to people!

When it comes to Korea, you want to look for places that offer Pico laser and Fractional laser treatments. They also do microneedling as a secondary treatment but you can get that locally and cheaper so I wouldn't worry about that!

I thought that boutique clinics were concierge or had a membership model? Maybe they mean something else different over there. I am not entire sure what the differences are unless it is just what you said there... They feel more like a spa than a hospital. That actually sounds like. I have heard of zero one ps but never been in touch with them.

Look for people using the same keywords. This is more obvious when you are looking at English reviews and Korean ones. You can use [ctrl] + [F] on your keyboard and search for terms and words on any website.

All sorts. Simple face lifts is an example. There is nothing really to check outside of if the healing process is going well. The skin takes care of itself. They most just check the healing process, bruising, and if there are any signs if infection.

Yes, I have heard of clinics doing that. It is much easier to manage patient needs when you have separate days for what is handled. I wouldn't be shocked if most clinics do this but if they have multiple doctors, people wouldn't notice. As they would always have some doctors doing surgery and others doing appointments.

As far as I know they follow WPATH protocols and do not have anything for "reversing" these surgeries. Some of them can't be reversed at all. I would imagine if there is a trend for it, they will adapt for those trends but most people that get these surgeries seem to be happy with their results and have no regrets

They should all be willing to speak with possible patients. It is a red flag IMO if they don't. But you have to keep in mind that time and schedule factors in here. The doctors are very busy!

I actually got declined (in the US) when I was younger. The reason being that the doctor did not want to do the work I wanted because he felt I was too young for it! Some doctors will warn off younger people if they think a surgery would cause more aging in the future. He told me to wait 10 years so I did. I do not regret it.

I have heard of these and in fact my sister uses a pink one. I don't know if that is jade or rose quartz. It might be the latter. Either way, she uses it to put on her serum and swears it makes a difference for her. I will have to get one and try it out. I didn't know this was a Korean beauty trend!
