jin77 Posted March 3, 2013 Share Posted March 3, 2013 Hello I am almost 3 months post op after a revision and would like to update all. My left eye inner cut was tapered but after several weeks it became undone and is now a parallel crease. So, my left eye looks bigger and rounder than my right eye which is a tapered cut. With make up you can't tell as much. I am a slow healer so my eyes are swollen in the mornings and they come down later in the day. I am still very happy that I got the revision surgery and am glad that it turned out good, although it's uneven a bit due to the inner cut being undone.

kianpark17 Posted March 5, 2013 Share Posted March 5, 2013 This caught my attention. What position do you sleep in? Has the doctor given you any post-operation instructions? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
eye Posted March 6, 2013 Share Posted March 6, 2013 Anyone is aware of the tension between South Korea and North Korea? Could there possible be a war between them, so it is not safe to travel to south Korea? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kianpark17 Posted March 8, 2013 Share Posted March 8, 2013 There's been tension between them for years. =) It's not like they're gonna nuke each other. Just like what's happening now between the Philippines and Malaysia. IMO, just because they're fighting doesn't mean that the ENTIRE country isn't safe. =) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
eye Posted March 8, 2013 Share Posted March 8, 2013 This time young Chairman Jin of North Korea canceled the "Seize Fire" agreement. It caused lots of worries on the possible war between them. I am concerned about the safety of the trip. Not sure how the people in Korea feel. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
snowcup Posted March 14, 2013 Share Posted March 14, 2013 Hi, I'm new and have followed this thread for a while. Thank you to everyone who offered their experiences. I plan to go to Seoul in April and wanted to consult with Dr. Kang at IOU, Dr. Cho at BIO, Dr. Lee at Eye Magic and Dr. Kwon at Teuim. Does anyone have experience with Dr. Lee and Dr. Kwon? I've read through the entire thread and haven't seen any comments or experience with Dr. Lee at Eye Magic, aside from the initial recommendation. I'd like to share accommodations with someone if possible. I see Reneesyd will be April around the same time... Reneesyd? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

snowcup Posted March 15, 2013 Share Posted March 15, 2013 Hi cherryzz, I just sent you an email. I would like smaller and lower lids, but I also have some complications on each eye that would require a specialist. One eye has retraction and the other eye has mild ptosis. I pretty much gave up for a long time and stumbled upon this thread a few weeks ago. I was hoping to hire a translator, but it looks like Zoe is booked. I can speak some Korean, but it would be great to have some help booking the consults. Is there another translator that people can recommend? I am just starting to wade through the Plastic Surgery thread. Gee, that one is over 300 pages! Does anyone know of a doctor that might be good in addressing the retraction issue? It looks like a lot of people have had ptosis correction, but I haven't yet seen anything on this issue. Thanks in advance to anyone who can provide some advice. It's so great how we can help each other this way. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
snowcup Posted March 15, 2013 Share Posted March 15, 2013 It looks like a few forum members are in Seoul now. Any updates? Also, would it be possible for someone to confirm the phone number for Dr. Kang at IOU is 02.549.0365 that is listed online? This number doesn't appear to be working for me. Also, does anyone have a link for before and after pictures with Dr. Kwon at Teuim? Thanks in advance. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
eye Posted March 15, 2013 Share Posted March 15, 2013 It seems very common for both eyes turn out not completely symmetrical. It seems to me like more people with the right eyelid a little more parallel than the left eyelid. Don't know why. I am so happy for you, and that you achieved the result you want. May I know the reason for your revision surgery? Also could you give some advice on the after-care post the surgery? Did you hire any service or someone took care of you? You may also email me at [email protected]. Thanks for sharing and best of luck to you!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
snowcup Posted March 16, 2013 Share Posted March 16, 2013 It looks like there are many people going to Seoul in April, in that all of the translators are booked. There aren't many people on the list we've been updating, so I'm wondering if April is a busy time in general? I've waited several years in getting my eyes corrected, and don't want to wait any more. I'm wondering if I'll be able to pull this off alone and still go to Seoul in a couple of weeks. I can speak some Korean, but I'm not totally confident that I'll catch all of the technical terms. Any advice or suggestions in reaching the clinics or doctors directly would be greatly appreciated. I've read more than 260 pages of the PS thread, which was helpful but confusing too!

snowcup Posted March 16, 2013 Share Posted March 16, 2013 Hi Cherryzz, I've sent you an email. Are you in Korea now? Would love to hear how it's going over there and whether you've selected a surgeon. It looks like in the other thread you had some questions on fat grafting and the longevity of the fat. Did you ever get a definitive answer? Since the graft is often done when lowering the eyelid to prevent adhesion so I'll probably need it as well.

lavenderspice Posted March 16, 2013 Share Posted March 16, 2013 Based on what I've read in this forum so far you can survive without a translator. But to be sure, call the clinics directly and ask if anyone there speaks English. If the person says no, talk to her in Korean and ask if the doctor can speak English. If she says he can, then go ahead and book an appointment. If the doctor can't and no one in the clinic speaks English, then I think that's the only time you'll need a translator.
