hani-v Posted February 16, 2019 Share Posted February 16, 2019 Hi everyone, I am planning to get my eyes done in SK this May and I just can't decide which clinic to go to. I previously consult with docfinder but they only gave me 4 options, which is the big famous clinic that craters for foreigners. The price they quoted is quite high despite mentioning there will be discount given after face to face consultation but I have the feeling it won't go down that much since the clinic have to pay them commission. They answer all my question promptly, communication was smooth but then it's my 1st time getting a surgery done and this is such a big decisions to make I want to have more options and be sure I made the right choice so I went and did my own research. I have shortlisted 3 clinics that I feel suited with the results I am looking for and got an online consultation but I can't decide which one to go for, I am thinking to go to f2f consultation and then decide but considering I have limited time in Seoul and it might be a hassle trying to find my way to all 3 clinic so I am thinking to choose 1 clinic and get it done with. I consulted some other clinic too but these 3 is on my top list : 1- VIEW This is my top choice so far. Their website looks promising as they offered technique that I can't find in any other clinic. The consultant I contacted respond promptly and quickly to all my question. They have a huge facility, in house anaesthesiologist, well equipped for emergency situation which such an assurance. Price wise reasonable and they are willing to negotiate the price if I get multiple procedure done. I read online they are more popular with the locals. Their B&A profile is quite good and they've been on the famous show let me in. They recommended me 2 surgeon who specialise on eye surgery which is Dr Lee Ho Bin and Dr Kim Jeong Min, anyone ever get their eyes done from these dr? If you did, can you please share with me the result. 2- UVOM I found this place from Instagram and start searching about it because of their impressive B&A on their instagram page. I consulted their consultant through WhatsApp, they suggested a non incision method for me instead on incisional one all other clinic proposed. I am not sure if non incisional method is a good option for me because i have quite a lot of extra skin which coz my droppy eyes but I decided to give them benefit of the doubt as they might know better what works for me and suggested what I actually need. Just 1 thing that put me off as they quoted me a price that is quite similar with the other clinic but they mentioned a 30% discount if I agree to cooperate with their promotion which I ask in details about it but they only want to negotiate about it during f2f conversations which seems a little shady to me as they refuse to reveal it on messages. 3- ITEM I found this clinic from a youtuber who shared her DES result with this clinic and I love how good her result is so I begin to do my research on them and contacted them via email but I am quite dissapointed on their online consultation. The consultant seems uninterested on replying me and they take 2 3 days to reply me. When they quoted me the price, I asked if it's a fixed price and whether the price is negotiable but they answer me straight away it's a fixed price, which kind of turn off since all other clinic willing to negotiate the price. I ask for DES in the beginning then I ask for fat repositioning because I am thinking to do it with my DES but then they ask me for my pictures again when in fact I already sent them in the beginning. It's unfortunate because I really love their B&A but if this is how they do consultation in the beginning I am worried if they can really provide a good after care later on. If anyone have any experience dealing with this clinic, would you mind to share it with me to help me made up my mind. Or if you have any other good clinic for DES to suggest I would be more than happy to check it out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
princessegg Posted February 17, 2019 Share Posted February 17, 2019 Following! I am interested in all 3 of these clinics too I also had the same experience with uvom where they offer high price but say there is 30% 'promotion'. I think its a marketing technique for foreigners lol Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hani-v Posted February 17, 2019 Author Share Posted February 17, 2019 Yes but the weird thing is they mentioned 30% discount if we decide to cooperate with their promotion but won't discuss in detailed about it over messages, I find it quite shady. When are planning to do your surgery btw? Are you getting your eyes done too? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Livflorence Posted February 17, 2019 Share Posted February 17, 2019 For View Plastic surgery, I recommend dr Kim. He’s a senior eye surgeon Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hani-v Posted February 17, 2019 Author Share Posted February 17, 2019 Do you have any experience with him? From their profile, it says that he is a specialist with wide range of professional experience. While Dr Lee have good profile too for someone that young.

princessegg Posted February 18, 2019 Share Posted February 18, 2019 Yeah they really didnt provide any information.. but I didnt exactly ask for more details either. I am going for revision des! I want more dramatic results and uvom seems to be a bit more natural then what I am after which is why I havent really asked the consultant for more details! What sort of eyes are you going for?

hani-v Posted February 18, 2019 Author Share Posted February 18, 2019 It happened to you too? I asked because I want to be sure if it's worth going there for consultation. Oh I see, where did get your DES before? Was the result not good? I have uneven eyes, monolid on the right double eyelid on the left so i want to make them look even. And I'm going for a higher crease too. I have two picture of the crease i like but can't decide to go with which one since I need to check with the surgeon if it's gonna suits my face. When are going btw? Which clinic are you considering? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
princessegg Posted February 18, 2019 Share Posted February 18, 2019 Ohhhh we are going for very similar style!!!! I would prefer a style thats in between the 2 you posted, although I would still be very very satisfied with either of them. I went to MVP last november and very much dislike my results as my eyes are hooded and my crease is so low it is very hard to even see it. I already have a post uploaded on my experience there: https://beautyhacker.com/forums/topic/1002205-asian-double-eyelid-surgery-turned-out-hooded/ Unfortunately can not really recommend them if you are looking for dramatic/higher crease; they are really good for very natural/conservative look though!! If you want to chat more we can talk on kakao! I have a big list of clinics that seem to be more consistent with doing higher creases and am having trouble narrowing them down hahaha Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sara88 Posted February 18, 2019 Share Posted February 18, 2019 I contacted UVOM while researching and I think they just want you to promote the clinic after surgery. If your result is good then that should be no problem. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hani-v Posted February 18, 2019 Author Share Posted February 18, 2019 That's what i thought in the beginning but if it's just a promotion why they are so reluctant to discussed it over messages and plus I don't think they will give me the discount before getting something from me as if I did my surgey and paid everything but never do what I supposed to do it's them who will be on the losing side.

sara88 Posted February 18, 2019 Share Posted February 18, 2019 I’d just go for a consultation and take it from there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stephanyliu_3 Posted February 19, 2019 Share Posted February 19, 2019 definitely the first one !! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ladybugz Posted February 19, 2019 Share Posted February 19, 2019 That's true in like, every situation, though... I got a discount with both clinics I've been to by promising my before/afters... I could have disappeared. Wonjin did make me sign a legal contract back in 2013 saying that they would sue me if I didn't hand over my "afters," but honestly, what were they going to do? I don't even live in Korea and they're not going to come over to the U.S. to sue me for a $1000 discount LOL. My only guess is that they want to see your pics first. Many of the clinics I contacted refused to cut me a discount without seeing me in person. They are not prob. interested in using your pic as advertisement if you're already gorgeous and just wanted a slight tweak. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hani-v Posted February 19, 2019 Author Share Posted February 19, 2019 Well, I don't mind giving my B&A if they gave me good results but if it's otherwise, that would be a scam. I will be luring new client to a clinic who do bad jobs. I am hesitating whether I should go to the f2f consultation as I am worried their result online might be altered Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
