SassyChic09, I am interested in double eyelid revision and from my research, Dr Kenneth Kim seems good but I have no time to do revision this year. If you should go to him, can you give your feedback? I would also love to do rhino.

I have a first consultation with him this Aug. 8th on my eye revision and nostril base reduction. I will let you know how everything go and the price on it. It's depend on the price. If too much then I might go to Dream Clinic and have him done there for me in Korea. The problem is I emailed Dream but I get no respond. I don't think they understand English.

Hi girls (and boys)!

I am planning to go to Seoul this July. Even though it's quite short-term, I would like to share some thoughts with you.

I am looking for a specialist in Eyelid surgery, someone who is capable of making the eyes look natural and pretty.

I've heard about these clinics:
Banobagi
Dream
Bkdy
Realcosmetics

Has anyone of you been there or does anyone have plans to go there?
It would be great to hear some reviews about these clinics. I'd be happy also to get some other recommendations from you, since I don't know much about this topic.

Again these are my concerns, and I would be very happy to hear any opinion from you:

1. Which clinic/ doctor should I chose for eyelid surgery? Any specialist on this field?
2. Anyone planning on goingto Seoul in July 2011?
3. Looking for a good place to stay, sth decent and not too expensive, since I'd like to stay a couple of weeks.
3. Is it too short-term to make appointments for July 2011?

Thanks in advance and hope to hear from you soon!

Dear girls,

I went to Seoul last April for my eyelid revision surgery. I had the following problems with my previous double eyelid surgery with Dr. Charles Lee in Los Angeles:

1) Dr. Charles Lee made my folds too high and too round shaped that they didn't look natural
2) He made my folds too deep and it caused ECTROPION (the inner eyelids are turned out too much and don't look good)
3) Asymmetric folds

Even though Dr. Charles Lee did a revision surgery for me, he couldn't fix the problems. In fact, I became worse off as too many operated eyes become much more difficult for future revisions for natural looking results. I also lost a lot of my muscles that lift my eyelids and also too much scarring and depressed area in my eyelids. Dr. Charles Lee is the one of the worst people in their profession - he should not have become a doctor.

With this desperation, agony, and problems that were caused by incompetent, poorly skilled Dr. Charles Lee, I went to Seoul to search for a solution for my eyelid revision. I consulted with several doctors, and I learned from talking to them that eye revisions require much more skills and experiences than the first time double eyelid surgeries. Not all doctors could do revisions well. I would be better off finding someone who specializes in eye revisions and someone who could fix the problems I was having.

Here is some notes I made about some doctors regarding eye revisions:

1) Dr. Byun Gun Kim at BK - He told me straight out that he could not fix my "too deep folds and ectropion issues". He was giving an excuse like "your skin is too thick". He also said I should expect a little asymmetry even after a revision. He could pretty much only lower my folds. Since he was not that skilled, I opted for other doctors. His rate was the lowest among all the doctors I consulted with, which is somewhat reflects and is fair for his incompetency - $2500

2) Dr. Jyoung at Banobagi - He basically said he could lower my folds and also do something extra - ptosis correction. The issue here is that I do not have ptosis. I felt like it was his thing to do ptosis corrections even if patients don't have that much issue with it just for the sake of bigger eye effect, except I didn't want bigger eyes. I wanted smaller folds and fix my other problems. I was looking for more natural looking eye, rather than unnatural, dramatic, asymmetric eyes that Dr. Charles Lee had created. Dr. Jyoung didn't say anything about ectropion, deep folds so I pretty much crossed him out from my list. His rate was $3200 after all the discount.

3) VIP Clinic - Dr. Lee here is well known for nose and nose revisions, not so much for eye revisions. You'd better go somewhere else for eye revisions.

4) Dr. Cho at Bando Eye Clinic - he specializes in eye and eye revisions only. He is very well regarded in many Korean websites (my Korean friends checked him out for me) for his eye revision works. He is the most expensive though. However, I was looking for solve all my problems, not bargain hunting for fixing only half of the problems. Even during the consultation, he pointed out all the problems I had and said he could fix them all. Check out his website too - he spells out each problems he could fix. I felt that other doctors just say they do revisions but in fact, there are many areas they can not fix (ectropion, deep folds, asymmetry, etc.)

So, I chose Dr. Cho for my eye revisions. It has been a week since my eyelid revision surgery, and I can already tell that my problems are fixed - my folds are smaller (even though I have swollen eyes, I could just tell they are smaller already), my folds are shallower and look more natural, my ectropion issue looks much better now, and my asymmetry looks fixed. I am HAPPY about my results so far. I think that from now on, my eyes will look even better and more natural...finally, I am smiling after all these problems...I should have come to Seoul in the first place, not Dr. Charles Lee or anyone else in the states. I consulted several doctors in the states who specialize in Asian eyelid surgeries and based on what doctors in Seoul here say and what they were saying in the states, I could tell that doctors in Seoul are much better and much advanced in their technique and knowledge.

I know that there are so many girls out there (some are victims of Dr. Charles Lee whom I think he should stop operating on girls and mutilating their faces with mediocre and half baked jobs) who are wondering about eye revisions. The above are my experiences, and I wanted to share this with you. I had the same agony with my eyelid issues plus the problem of not knowing the Korean language and the best doctors in Seoul. However, I have now fixed my problems with the help of a good doctor, and I highly recommend Dr. Cho at Bando Eye Clinic to the girls who are looking to fix "all of your eye revision problems" and would not compromise with "half revisions" with other doctors like BK's Dr. Kim or others.

I am writing this out of my good heart to help those who need help. We need to help each other.

Hi there:
I'm so glad I found your post, I live in the states, and actually went to Dr. Lee for a consultation for eyelid revision...but after talking to him for 15 mins, I knew he does not have the skills to do the revision and he seemed to care more about how much money he can make off of people then anything else(he ended up trying to make me get a nose surgery and narrowing my jaw bones to make me face slimmer!) Anyways, I have had eyelid surgery done almost 10yrs ago in Canada, like you, I was never happy with the result-the folds are too high. I had one revision done 2 yrs ago in the states, but the result was very unnoticeable and my lids are still alittle uneven. After reading your post, I feel like Dr.Cho might be the perfect Dr I've been looking for, so I was love to get more info from you regarding your surgery and if you could send pictures that would be sooo helpful (you can send it to my personal email)....
Thank you so much for reading this, and I look forward to hear back from you!
