kpstar Posted August 11, 2013 Share Posted August 11, 2013 I don't know whether or not she's a good candidate for the surgery. I don't think the surgeons know a lot if times either. Plastic surgery is a gamble. Who you choose and how well you heal is also a big toss up. The best you can do is have as much information as possible and make an informative decision. It's good to have this forum to read other people's experiences but I don't expect to get bullied out of doing my own research. I've seen so many posters say that they change their mind about a certain hospital because of another person's experiences there. I've personally only heard good things about it before I entered this forum. As for getting revisions, they do promise to do them. It's just a matter of, do you want a revision by this doctor?

kpstar Posted August 11, 2013 Share Posted August 11, 2013 I've had plenty of procedures done to know that a lot of times, these surgeons don't have the skills to make it perfect the first time. They need a couple of tries to make it what you're looking for. Sometimes you're lucky and it happens the first time. Sometimes you're not and you need two or three revisions. Sometimes you get missed up beyond repair. That's why you you have to research and prepare as much as possible. That's what I'm doing. I'm not being a FAN of ID! I'm just tired of hearing people say they heard this or that. I'm going to visit as many hospitals while I'm out there. I'm intelligent to know if something's not right.

snowcup Posted August 11, 2013 Share Posted August 11, 2013 I don't think anyone is so invested or cares which clinics you choose to consult with or go to for surgery. People were just making sure you've seen the info on the forum from other reviewers. Not a big deal. The good and bad reviews are equally important to a forum. People need to hear both the good and bad. That's the whole point of why we're here. It's all data. How you filter it is up to you. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bellzz Posted August 12, 2013 Share Posted August 12, 2013 Hello MollyMillions, So good that you have found your clinic of choice, hope you can share your b/a pictures with us, when your swelling slightly subsides I want to see the results, bcos I plan to go korea in 3 mths time Frankly, this is first time I heard of Semin PS, does Dr Hong speaks English? You did mention that you went with your aunt, so probably she helps you translate? Last but not list, really appreciate your review, at least I can have more options in choosing the best clinic for my nose & probably eyes job too! Thanks a lot!

Guest Posted August 12, 2013 Share Posted August 12, 2013 Hi KPStar, I do not drink or smoke, but I noticed that the surgery did take a toll on my health, maybe because of the GA and all the other meds. It has motivated me to eat more healthily and avoid junk food to make sure the recovery is smooth and my health can get back to where it was before. I have angular cheekbones and face, always looking older than my age, because of my bone structure and less facial soft tissue. I have friends who smoke and drink and party who still look younger than me, with a heart shape face and a good amount of facial soft tissue. An angular face looks harsh and makes one look older as they age, as the cheekbone becomes more and more prominent and theres less soft tissue and fat in the face i.e. Carla Bruni. Since the surgery people have commented I look younger. My bone has become less prominent and my cheeks are softer looking, not just bone jutting out. However if one already doesn't have much bone to begin with I can imagine cheekbone reduction giving them a fatter and flatter face which might not be ideal. If I had gone for v-line as well, it would have been an even more dramatic result, since having a small pointy chin is also an indicator if youth.

kpstar Posted August 12, 2013 Share Posted August 12, 2013 I think I have similar facial issues as you. I'm very happy that you're well and wish you the best results. Thanks again! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

winterntht Posted August 12, 2013 Share Posted August 12, 2013 What do you think you can see for yourself apart from a luxurious clinic with very friendly staff and doctors? Do you think that they will show you their failed cases or let you know they are shady? Dr. Park is very knowledgeable, I have consulted with him myself but the problem is you don't know if he is the one who will operate on you. ID is not the only clinic in Korea that swap doctors when you are under, Samsung Kangnam does too and it was a disaster for me when I had surgery with them. If you think you are intelligent enough to know if something is wrong, others are too. That's the reason why reading reviews is important. Nobody tells you that you have to believe everything people share on here but you should appreciate the information they give because it helps you to make your informed decision. People who have failed surgery usually go through emotional distress, why would you expect them to suffer more by showing their disfigured faces for everyone to see.
