maskd2003 Posted May 30, 2007 Share Posted May 30, 2007 yea.. the eyes actually takes WEEKS to look natural if you do the cut and sew... so don't worry. And, yea, what he said about the 10%-20% is true... I did it 3 years ago with another method, and it was slightly different but no one can tell.. Also, you won't see the FINAL result until a full year for your eyes. Anyway, the doc did not say that I needed to refill it. I also consulted with a US doc, he also said that I did not need to ever refill it... just a one time procedure... that's it. Honestly, I have never heard of this before. And, I'm really not worried about it... yea... your eyes will be pretty pretty... the swelling is pretty obnoxious... and they really won't look normal for quite a while without makeup. That's so funny... you heal opposite of me... I swell up like crazy... tip is still being a little funny and longest to unswell completely. It's actually starting to look a lot like glamorous's mom's nose... haha... which is good, cuz I like it... hope it will shrink lots still... Oh, I found a Korean PS around here where I live!... so I might just go to him for my eyes. I'm not in a real rush, but it's nice to have more choices.

keropijennifer Posted May 30, 2007 Share Posted May 30, 2007 Not to get too upset on this shoegirl......Im sure after getting some time to think about it your mum will understand.......I think she's just really shocked and was not expecting it.....if a nose job really means a lot to you....just tell her the truth (give her some time to cool down first tho)....for alot of ppl I hear getting a nose job really helps them bring back their confidence, which they may not have had before surgery....

jasminet3e Posted June 2, 2007 Share Posted June 2, 2007 I just came back from Korea after getting my nose done (a revision) by Dr. Kim at BKclinic and just wanted to make a comment. I read a couple of posts on this thread that said that Dr. Kim was arrogant so I was hesitant about going to him but I really liked him. I wouldn't say he's down to earth but he was really professional and respectful. Actually, other doctors in Korea I've talked to before were completely obnoxious in how confident they were and they were not even that qualified. Maybe it was the language barrier because I spoke to him in Korean. Anyways, that was it. I benefited a lot from this group so wanted to share my experience. My nose looks really good and natural even after just 10 days. The clinic gets a LOT of traffic, especially during the summer and winter months when the students are on break, so you'll want to definitely reserve a spot a few weeks earlier if that's when you're going. One of the nurses told me that last summer, the doctors did surgery until 1am several times because of the demand. BK is really famous in Korea and people come from all over the place to get seen by Dr. Kim. Also, they're building a bigger clinic by next year so they'll have more rooms then where you can stay for free. I stayed at the hotel they recommended at a discount b/c there were no rooms available. I personally found it more comfortable than a clinic room would have been. Well, that's it. I'm pleased with my result and experience so I wanted to offer another side. PM me if you have a question. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kel Posted June 2, 2007 Share Posted June 2, 2007 Hi Im so glad to hear that! Why did u get a revision? How many years did u have ur "old" implant in ur nose? What did the Dr. use for ur nose now? I or L implant? Goretex? I was supposed to go to Dr. Kim but I changed my mind in the last minute. I haven't regret anything cuz my face is... hehe.. and the nose was pretty from day one. Now Im still looking for the "real" final result Did u get anything else done? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
berry22 Posted June 2, 2007 Share Posted June 2, 2007 Hey maskd2003, How long did it take for your nose to look completely normal w/no brusing or swelling? I am thinking about getting the tip of my nose fixed but I only have 2 weeks of vacation from work and I don't want anyone to know that I got ps done... thanks !

meowgirl Posted June 2, 2007 Share Posted June 2, 2007 Hey shoegirl! Keropi and I are still kinda deciding whether to go korea or taiwan haha, but i think we are travelling around your time so we'll let u know! Have you told your parents that you are thinking of going again? Are they cool about you going this time? I guess its easier to let them know now heehee, u never know, your mum might come with you to make sure you're ok.. I know my mum would eeks!!

jasminet3e Posted June 2, 2007 Share Posted June 2, 2007 I got a revision b/c the silicon from the last surgery was too short. After 2 years, I could see the separation and it was pretty noticeable... I got an I implant this time and hopefully it'll be perfect! I also got a calf reduction done. My legs are pretty sore if I walk for a long time but most of the swelling's come down. I'll see a small result in a few months--like an inch at the most--but it'll be better than nothing! My mom got her eye bags removed and she's happy w/it. Good luck to you! The nose is such a big part of the face. I'm glad you're happy with the result of your surgery.
