sparkling_soda Posted April 19, 2012 Posted April 19, 2012 Cool, so you had your nose done in Korea? How long ago was it? You must be really happy with your new nose shape. How much did you pay for the whole thing? And where did you make those new friends? Did you go with friends you made on this forum? lol
rohnin Posted April 19, 2012 Posted April 19, 2012 I went last month alone to VIP, paid $5000 and the staff there plus the other patients were great Other forum members didn't seem keen to meet, but it was alright! I don't think my nose is perfect (yet) but much better than before. And, I am claiming it tax-free for my health savings account
sparkling_soda Posted April 19, 2012 Posted April 19, 2012 Really, you can use your HSA for nose surgery overseas? I thought it was really for medical reasons only and not for plastic surgery? Do you think you can share with me your before and after pix?
rohnin Posted April 19, 2012 Posted April 19, 2012 The clinic took all the pics, I didn't take my own but they haven't posted them for me yet I also had septoplasty so I can claim that part
yamz Posted April 19, 2012 Posted April 19, 2012 hahah yea it does i like the dramatic lol but im planning on going overseas to get mine done
yamz Posted April 19, 2012 Posted April 19, 2012 looks interesting definitely gna take a look at chungdam u. since it's ulzzangs i hope they don't ps their pics... never done it myself but abt the swelling on zygoma and mandibular reduction, hopefully pictures can speak louder then words. its a pic diary on a woman who has done it. u might need to sign up thou but not surehttp://bbs.beauty100.com.cn/forum.php?mod=viewthread&tid=45321&extra=&from=portal&page=1
taeyang123 Posted April 19, 2012 Posted April 19, 2012 wow the girls on tht blog look rlly pretty. its hard to kno what they are getting done and what they already have done since its not in english do u have any idea what materials this clinic uses for rhinoplasty?
taeyang123 Posted April 19, 2012 Posted April 19, 2012 even though i havent been to china i feel the same way and totally agree. if common sense and caution isnt used one can also get into hot water in korea as well, china isnt the only place that is shady. my cousins mom went to china for business reasons and she said it was rlly nice and clean, but was scared cuz she was alone. lol thanks for the adivce
sparkling_soda Posted April 19, 2012 Posted April 19, 2012 Hi Yamz, When are you planning to go? hehe I like natural looking nose btw, have you heard of surgeon kimberly lee in Beverly Hills, CA. i went to the website but there aren't any before and after pictures of patients. but in the email correspondence, the lady was really confident that Dr.lee is a really good surgeon and she'll give you the results you wish to have lol
sparkling_soda Posted April 19, 2012 Posted April 19, 2012 What about pictures that you took with your own phone or camera? lol
rohnin Posted April 20, 2012 Posted April 20, 2012 I took one with me lying in bed 1 hour post-op all bandaged up and dazed . Not sure that would help lol. I regret not taking more pictures myself
milyway Posted April 20, 2012 Posted April 20, 2012 Which email address you use to email him? Because i don't have a reply from him yet.
pygmypuff Posted April 20, 2012 Posted April 20, 2012 They use 100% sure they use ear cartilage but not sure whether it's silicone/gorex implant. If you look through the blog you can see them getting cartilage from the ear O.o
spartanwarrior Posted April 22, 2012 Posted April 22, 2012 I say definitely go to korea. that's one of the most popular surgeries done there and alar base reduction is more specialized there. plus also it is a lot cheaper even with hotel and flight expenses. Dr Sam Rizk in NY did my nose but it was 16000 usd. ouch. i think it came out good but if i was asian i would have done it in korea or japan instead.
