Budgeting for PS Overseas
InstaQu33n replied to beachybabe's topic in KOREAN PLASTIC SURGERY (NEW! ACTIVE FORUM)
Can I ask why you wouldn't recommend this? I have read and seen others not only recommending this option but using it to help pay for their surgeries. -
This is a strange trend in the US it seems. Maybe in the UK as well? I don't know anyone that has personally had this operation done but I have read about it severely aging you as you get older. It is a surgery that will require more surgeries in the future to maintain a youthful look. I even read on another side they do not recommend anyone under the age of 50 getting it done because of this.

I noticed it had been a growing trend in the US in the last 10 or so years. A lot of the people I have seen get it done do not look good IMO. One of the worst being Lea Michele. Every picture I see her in post surgery just looks awful. I look through images of every day people's before and afters and they don't look this bad. There are other celebrities too that have had this done and it just doesn't look right. I am wondering if this trend has made it to Korea. I know Koreans, especially women, have rounder faces. I think this tends to look better and more youthful. I don't understand this trend in all honestly. Some people look better after but more don't and some look worse. I can understand it for aging and tightening skin but most people getting this surgery are under the age of 40! So I am basically curious to see if anyone knows about this in Korea. If it is a trend or not. Have you had this surgery done or know someone who has?

Options for zygoma reduction in Korea?
InstaQu33n replied to LillyD86's topic in KOREAN PLASTIC SURGERY (NEW! ACTIVE FORUM)
Anytime I have looking into cheek work, VIEW Plastic Surgery is at the top of the list for a lot of people. This is in terms of recommendations, suggestions, and feedback. Even AI will likely recommend them. I think this is because they have tons of international patient experience and are a big clinic. I am not sure how many doctors work that this place but contacting them might be work it. Even if you don't end up going to this one, they can probably help you get a better understanding of what you are looking for in terms of doctors and clinics. -
That seems to be the issue for something like this. Jaw, nose, and even eye work can all be done to enhance the profile but they are not always listed as such. This is why talking to the clinics and the doctors helps. I know not everyone gets the same advice either when it comes to enhancing your look because we all have different issues, bone structure, etc.

I can understand wanting to avoid the large clinics that feel more like hospitals. I have been to a few locally and they make it harder to relax. I would try using keywords like natural beauty and natural aesthetics. As for the surgery, find clinics that mention the superficial musculoaponeurotic system and volume restoration.

Treatment options for Rosacea in Korea?
InstaQu33n replied to tikicat76's topic in KOREAN PLASTIC SURGERY (NEW! ACTIVE FORUM)
Korea does have options. I have looked into various skin correction treatments and have seen treatment offers at a few of them for rosacea. I was struggling to find ones in proper English for certain treatments though which made things harder. One of the clinics, Upper11 Clinic, for example doesn't have much clear information in English so you have to be sure you are getting in touch with the right people and the right doctors. -
Aftercare Korean beauty products?
InstaQu33n replied to melwinters's topic in KOREAN PLASTIC SURGERY (NEW! ACTIVE FORUM)
Everyone I have talked to about aftercare says the most important thing is keeping skin clean, proper hydration, and diet. The topical stuff can only do so much. You want to make sure you drink enough water and are eating foods that encourage healing and skin repair. -
Yes, there are certain drugs that aren't allowed! I only know this because a friend got turned away when traveling and her entire vacation was ruined. So to avoid this, you need to contact the MFDS at [email protected] for specific guidance. You will have to obtain a permit for said medications prior to traveling to Korea. Here are the drugs that are prohibited: Narcotics and Opioids: Drugs containing codeine or other narcotics are strictly prohibited. Examples include certain painkillers and cough syrups. Amphetamines and Stimulants: ADHD medications containing amphetamines, such as Adderall, are illegal to possess. While methylphenidate (e.g., Ritalin, Concerta) is available in Korea, it is tightly controlled, and bringing it in requires strict adherence to permit processes. CBD and Hemp Products: All marijuana, CBD oil, and hemp-derivative products are heavily regulated and effectively banned for import; possession can lead to deportation or arrest. Psychotropic Drugs: Certain sleeping aids (like Zolpidem) and benzodiazepines (like Xanax or Valium) are classified as controlled substances and require prior approval.
