Tlps& view asked for a deposit when I called (from home) them and enquire about surgery dates. Probably its a common practice to pay deposit to secure surgery date??

I think it might be standard procedure. They have to make sure you don't bail. They are running a business afterall.

Honestly, I didn't really look out for JW.
But I've come across it being mentioned here a number of times.
What I also noticed was making deposit... Mmmm I wouldn't really make a deposit before I'm fully assured though.

The thing is I don't even know who had revisions with the site in Korean. Most look great. Have you seen photos on a blog in naver and korean cafes?
Well I do know in View, Dr Choi specializes in nose surgeries.

I seen some photos and many patients went to View for surgeries. They look really different be4 and after. It seems really popular with the young Koreans there.
Well for JW, seems its not so popular. Their b&a is not a lot if compared with View.
Yes, JW asked for a deposit to secure the consultation date.

Nah you got it completely wrong. Marir's friend went to ID for a consultation and in the waiting room, saw a girl that had a bad jaw surgery gone wrong and she was there for revision. Marir's friend got scared off and chose view. She never even did her nose. let alone revision for anything.

Perhaps I'm wrong? There were quite a few stories about View here. Well, ultimately View is still turned to.

It'd be. \
I actually meant making deposit before consultation. I don't know about that...

Don't do it. Dream asked me to pay as well. I'm not so naive.

Hi

I recently got into an argument with my friend about getting PS in Korea. When I told him he was really against it and the main reason was cost. He told me by the time I book a flight (I'm coming from Canada), book hotel for 2+ weeks, shop (who can resist...!!!), pay the translator etc. that I'll end up spending around the same if not more compared to if I just got the surgery in Canada.

I'm not getting my entire face done I only really want a rhinoplasty, and I don't care where I sleep as long as it as a roof and bed lol. I've heard some clinics offer places where you can stay for pretty cheap?

I emailed a doctor I was greatly considering going to in Canada and the estimation for a rhinoplasty was $7.9k. Pretty sure that's much more than what good Korean surgeons charge...and even with flight, hotel, translator (some shopping ) I would be paying less...?


Also one more question has anyone heard about doing lip reduction in korea? From what I've seen most clinic websites don't have it listed for procedures they perform

hey im also from canada, and i think doing it in canada and korea pretty much evens out i think. but disregarding the cost, the experience that korean surgeons have alone is a good enough reason to go. they're aren't many skilled surgeons in rhinoplasty in canada and the states for patients who are not Caucasian. also i think vip does lip reduction, i saw a pic a while back on their site about it.

Hey ID often switch surgeons while you're knocked out...They get the juniors to operate on you I think. I'veread some horror stories. Makes you wonder why their results turned out so horribly? I'd go to Regen if I were you.

Did you go to regen? if so how were the results?

Hey shugs, thank you so much for writing such a detailed account of your experience! I felt like I was there with you lol. I hope your healing is going well. I'm really glad your experience at OZ was overall positive. I think it's so sweet that the front desk lady held your hand throughout the entire surgery. Small things like that really make me think that the clinic genuinely cares about their patients. Please keep us posted on how you're doing.

And I couldn't agree more about taking your time with consultations! If you're not confident with any of the clinics you've consulted with, then it won't hurt to spend an extra day looking around at other clinics. Consultations are such an important part of the process, there are a lot of locals that actually spend weeks to months taking their time comparing different clinics. We don't have this luxury as foreigners, so every day counts. Go to as many clinics as you can!

I've been checking this thread for 3 months, it's like big tangled ball of yarn, hard to make sense of who did what and where.

 

[seoulforreal]

Just want to let everyone know. I live and work in Seoul by all these clinics, so if you have any questions about the areas, just ask, I have visited many of them.

Hi Cherryzz,

This was exactly what me and my friend, another forumer thot too. Initially, we had decided on some clinics which she often brings foreigners to. But when my friend wanted to change to another clinic which is not under her "recommended" list, she dropped her first, even thought it was like 3-4 weeks in advance notice.

I didn't know she would do this to me too when I asked if I can change one clinic but we still keep the same time and the rest of the 2 clinics remain the same, no changes, given one month notice. She dropped me like a hot potato too.

I have no proof that she is taking commission from some of the popular clinics hence this is my pure speculation only. I am fine if she takes commission as long as she does a gd job helping me. But to suddenly tell me that she can't help me, I was surprised cos I had been a good client and I dnt bother her a lot, gave her my clinic list at least 1.5 months ago and even made my own appt with JW and update her. When I emailed JW consultant that I am bringing Zoe along, she replied back by asking me not to bring Zoe along as she can help me with the consultation. So I was also puzzled by her reaction abt me bringing Zoe along. I told her that I have already booked Zoe hence I can't drop Zoe like this. Who knows... Zoe ditched me.

Anyways, I am glad Zoe ditched me now cos I find that her service is getting more commercialised, getting assistant to help. Not that it is bad cos ultimately, she also wants to make money and she is running a business. But I believed I will be in a venerable state after PS so I need someone who can give me a personalised service. I believed Zoe is good based on all the gd feedbacks. Maybe she is just not suitable for my style. I am also scared that when I woke up from my PS, I see Tony beside my bed, rather than Zoe...lolx.

I am not sure if I can reveal my translator name here but her name starts with N. If u are not sure who exactly, let me know then I pm u or if u like, u can pm me first and I will pass her email to u. I dnt kw if her service is gd or not cos I haven't used her yet so I dnt want to promote her here. Just that I also got her email from this forum after others use her service.
