Fellow Sydneysider too! Gonna be there mid Sept - end of Sept. Plan on getting rhinoplasty and I've been looking at JW, Regen and ID.

Thank you for all your replies! I will definitely go to yakson house for a try, but I heard 10 sessions is like $3000 or more in New York. And I will be going to Korea end of may of beginning of June 2015. Lol a very long time from now! But it's when I graduate highschool
Also for yakson house, I really want to try it even though it might be painful because I don't want to get surgery since the consequences of that are too dangerous and risky. Lol(:

After months and months of browsing through forums and checking out websites this is what I have gathered. This is purely my opinion though and no I am not advertising for clinics or anything.
Eyes
1. Teuim - supposedly best for epicanthoplasty since dr Kwon invented it and results are scarless. However I am not impressed by his b a pics and don't like how he makes so much inner red show.
2. Banobagi- there are two doctors and one is very good for revision and ptosis, they only have like one pic of b a on Epi on their website but I really like it
3. Bio- dr cho, heard a lot out how they specialize in eyes, and that they are very good but very expensive
Nose for implant
1. VIP
2. Shimmian
Nose without implant ( so like tip plasty)
1. JW
2. Banobagi
So basically if you want a nose implant then VIP and shimmian are good but I only want tip plasty and alar and bulbous reduction so I'm going with either JW or banobagi
Face, jaw, cheek
1 regen - more subtle results
2. JW - more dramatic if you want it

Other clinics
BK - I would recommend for something simple like eyes or nose but its not very personalize. Please don't go for face surgery tho
Oz- cute little clinic with dr park . He is extremely nice and friendly, however it's to small a clinic for my liking. Prices are more affordable

Dear all,

I was in Korea for 3 weeks for rhinoplasty, double eyelid surgery, and skin care. I hired the best translator ever, Anita.

I just got back home a few days ago so I wanted to fill you all in on my experience. I didn't visit that many clinics. I stayed away from the big ones cuz of personal preference. I didn't want to feel like I was going to a factory to get surgery done. I know a lot of people like the big names but I feel like it's a hit or miss. Just my personal opinion after talking to others. . I knew I wanted a small clinic where I could talk to the doctor and know exactly who is doing my surgery. I'm not here to bash or promote any ps clinics. I'm not even going to write a review about mine. I'm still waiting for results. In a few months, I will post a review. I'm here solely to share my overall experience.

Regarding the whole translator business, I cannot say whether or not my translator got a commission. No idea but what I do know is this: her postcare is great!!!! Anita will always make sure that you are okay, money aside. I was picked up from airport, taken out to dinner, and was able to meet a ps postop patient the day I arrived. I'm not sure if it gets better than that. Anita is very responsive and will do her very best to ensure that you are okay even if it means taking you to the hospital because you accidentally bumped your nose after surgery (with the cast still on). Ouch!!! I really have to say that Anita and people who work for her went out of their way to accommodate my needs. They even took me shopping! !! Who does that?! It was like having a guide and nurse at the same time!! Believe me, if you are alone, you need someone like Anita. After surgery, you will not want to move. Having someone get you meds and everything else you need takes the worry and exhaustion away. You really don't want to have to worry about anything right after surgery. Believe me. The anesthesia sucks the life out of you.

If it wasn't for Anita, I would have never met my love in Seoul. By my "love," I mean my Skin Care clinic: Maylin! !! I LOVE this place. Hands down, the best skin care clinic in Seoul. I would go back Seoul just to go to Maylin. That's how good they are. 5 stars...doctor speaks English and is super sweet, honest, and professional. Everyone at the clinic is awesome! !! From the moment you enter, you are treated like a celebrity. If you want more info, PM me. I know this thread is for ps only but I can't help but write something about my favorite place in Seoul. If you're looking for a place to treat your skin and you want not only results but phenomenal service, Maylin is the place for you.

If you're looking for someone to pick you up, take you places, and help you search for ps clinics, Anita is your woman. She is very reasonable and the only translator I know who offers airport pickup without charging you an additional fee. I contacted Zoe and she asked for an additional fee for airport pickup on top of her already hefty price of $150. Anita charges $130 (including airport pickup). Plus she took me to skin clinics and anybps clinics I wanted.But, to me, the post care was of utmost importance. If not for Anita and a few good forum friends (tephteph), I wouldn't have survived.

Here's my advice to all of you embarking on this journey: don't be fooled by the big clinics. Look for a reputable doctor. Talk to real people who've had surgery. Ask as many questions as you want. Make sure the doctor knows exactly what you want before going into surgery. Remember they see many patients. Write things down. Be prepared for some pain, a whole lota bruises and swelling. Look for friends because you're going to need them to survive.

I'm back home now and Anita is still responding to my emails. She's really one heck of a translator. And visit Maylin and you'll see what I mean. You might even see a celeb or 2 while you're there. All locals go there. I don't think they have an English website unfortunately. They really don't need to market. The place is never empty.

Good luck to you all!!! Remember, no pain, no gain. The price we pay for beauty.

I'll post my review of the clinic I chose in a few months.

Hello everyone!!

So i am now 26 days post op eyelid correctional, vline, cheekbone reduction, fat graft, rhinoplasty, and lipo. I went to THE clinic, in which was all organized by seoultouchup. I am honestly happy with my results, even though my nose looks like a piece of garlic and my cheeks make me look 10 lbs heavier. I am surprise no one has posted anything about THE clinic. They were amazing. I had two friends go there for surgery after I went. I was set to go to ID, but heart all the bad reviews and that it was very factory styled, and had risked getting a junior doctors. According to my seoultouchup coordinator, Joon, who was amazing and who became not just an employer but a friend, told me that the clinics you want to go to are the one's that are not big companies. I asked about oz, teium, id, and he honestly told me that he didn't feel comfortable with me going to any of them because they're tailored to get foreign customers and they charge more. He then recommended THE clinic because it was a very popular small clinic that was popular with locals...which is good. The clinic is ran by only 3 doctors, in which one is a liposuction doctor, so your choices are Dr.ock and Dr.jeong. I had Dr.ock perform on my face. He has been in the business for 20 years and is the lead doctor. Not really advertising this clinic, but if you want natural, but dramatic change, this clinic may be an option. The clinic is also located in the same building as Hus Hu skin clinic, so you can get skin work at the same time. In terms of post op, it wasn't so bad. I didn't get nausea, was in about 3 out of 10 pain because of the pain meds, even though i had 6 procedures done. It was more discomfort than pain. As of now, the only issue is the uneven swelling on my nose, and the fact I can open my mouth more than 3 fingers. I hope you guys do your research and choose the right clinic!

Hey Boyizzy,

Your testimonial gives me a sense a relief cause I thought that me going through eye , rhino and vline surgery is more extreme than anyone else. But you went through 6 procedures at one shot and you make it sound like a walk in the park! I am inspired. By the way are you a guy or a girl? Coz guys do tend to have higher pain threshold.

How did you survive rhino and vline at the same time? My translator advised me not to do it at one shot because it will be really suffering to not be able to breathe and to be choked by a locked shut jaw after vline surgery.
