Under Eye Fat Repositioning - Internal Fixiation Wannabe Plastic Surgery?


Recommended Posts

So I had botched fat transfer to under eyes and cheeks two years ago. They basically said they cannot do a revision surgery to remove. I was quite surprised as they have an ASAPS/ASPS US board certified surgeon on staff and US surgeons generally have experience with this type of issue (because a whole lot of USA/Canada surgeons do a **** job at fat grafting and see lots of complications like mine)

I talked to Alice again last night and Dr Chang reviewed my photos and stated I was a difficult case (LOL). They didn't recommend surgery but recommend Accusculpt (1444nm laser) to try and help dissolve the fat.

Problem is I may require more than one round, and since I would be visiting from Canada for less than 10 days ideally the logistics of spaced treatments could get tricky. I'm in Toronto so not keen on the idea of multiple long flights to Korea.

how many days apart would they need to do at least two treatment for you? Hopefully something works out

I clarified yesterday- they recommend 6 months between treatments, and were clear that it may not give the results I need. I will most likely need to see an oculofacial/ oculoplastic surgeon in the USA who can do the removal which will be quite difficult surgery apparently and not to mention $$$$

MVP clinic also gave feedback on my photos and also recommend I see a specialist surgeon so unless I can find one in Korea I will most likely need to get surgery in the USA.

Dreading the exchange rate for the CDN dollar!!!

I was in Seoul a fortnight ago. I have come away very happy. Pitangui seems as good as you will get. I did a lot of research before flying in and I was accompanied in the same treatment by a lady of ‘mid years’ who had the same. She too was V satisfied. Here is a summary. The founder and lead surgeon of the Pitangui Clinic is Dr Yoo, a world renowned leader in this field. He is an excellent surgeon and he has won a large fan base around the world.This clinic reaches out to overseas visitors with a ‘front of house team’ every bit as good as the medical and surgical team. When negotiating for surgery, this team have the authority and flexibility to meet most of your needs. In short, language difficulties, accommodation, negotiating payments and travel advice are all in their days work.

I am a white male of senior years accompanied on this occasion by my friend’s wife (much younger) both seeking Upper and Lower Blepharoplasty plus eye bag repositioning, (removing fat deposits etc). The end product is excellent. Both of us are more than satisfied with the price and the support we were given.

Prior to departing, those niggling little questions one has were always answered promptly and efficiently often out of hours. I am not a Korean speaker or reader so quite often I had to reach back to ask for support; it was forthcoming always with gracious style and delivery.

Dr Yoo runs an outstanding operation. His reputation is second to none. His support team are multi-lingual, friendly and understanding. They are some of the best you will find. All together, this is a world class operation and I can recommend it to everyone.

Any updates on this surgery from wannabe? I am looking into hospitals that can preform a lower blepharoplasty for my mother and saw that wannabe had this method and it looks really promising!
