thetrolltrain Posted March 13, 2014 Share Posted March 13, 2014 Now I'm really concerned about going. Thanks for the advice Chanel! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
k-couture Posted March 13, 2014 Share Posted March 13, 2014 Oh you are all worry for nothing. There's nothing to be concerned about. Just avoid the translators and agents and go directly for your consultations. Most clinics have english speaking staff anyway and i assume alot of u here speak mandarin too which is even more helpful. Because even more clinics have fluent mandarin staff. I never get why people bother to go to a translator or an agent anyway. Its so simple to get around Seoul and source out a list of clinics to short list on your own.

fantasyface Posted March 13, 2014 Share Posted March 13, 2014 thanks for all the information. I feel 9m is too expensive for vline and cheekbone. you could pay 13m for zygoma and vline in regen. i am only willing to 13m for all procedure. i will be smart not to tell anyone about my name and clinics and when i will be going. no more translator.their commission is ridiculous Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
puppydog Posted March 13, 2014 Share Posted March 13, 2014 Annacrush, how's your recovery? Hope you are doing well! Can you share how you find the results of Power V and eye? I'm interested to do that too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
elainerose Posted March 13, 2014 Share Posted March 13, 2014 Hi Everyone, I am new here and I am going to Korea in April to do my eyelids surgery (and maybe 360 liposuction) and my relative is going to do facelift. We are pretty anxious and scared. Our host recommended Dream Surgery with Dr. Park for all the surgery. But I'm not sure because The host said he's the best for everything. If any of you have any recommendation, could you please help me. We are traveling from USA and I don't want our money to go to waste. Please help. Thank you Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
k-couture Posted March 13, 2014 Share Posted March 13, 2014 Dr Park seems to be very skilled with eyes and nose.I am actually going to him for my revision rhino. However i don't think he does 360 lipo. You will probably be assigned a body sculpting specialist surgeon at Dream for that, while dr Park dfoes your eyes.

tuppuguy Posted March 13, 2014 Share Posted March 13, 2014 Anyone here going to be in korea for the next week or so? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
walkingpenguins Posted March 13, 2014 Share Posted March 13, 2014 hi guys! so I will be in Korea on March 18th and I will be stayin there for 10 days. after reading all 600+ pages on this forum I have finally booked consultation appointments with JW, Chungdam U, and Tieum for an eyelid surgery. Obviously I will make my final decision after my appointment but I was just wondering, if anyone who has been looking into these clinics or who have personally been there can give me some more information. especially Chungdam U, I haven't been able to get as much info about it as I did with the other two clinics. Thanks in advance y'all Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
maiq Posted March 14, 2014 Share Posted March 14, 2014 Walkingpenguines One of the forumers has posted her experience with chungdamu here # but PLEASE READ THAT WHOLE THREAD cos toward the end the experience turned out to be negative. Please keep us posted on your journey M Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tuppuguy Posted March 14, 2014 Share Posted March 14, 2014 I went for a consultation with tieum a few days ago. Just remember its now called AT. I believe it was on the fifth floor and the entrance to the building is kind of inconspicious so it was a little hard to find. The eye dr im sure you have read is good with eyes. He speaks a little english so that was a plus. He reeked of cigarettes though. The price they gave me was 3mil won and would not budge. It was for double eyelid and epi. By the way, if you have kakao talk and want to join the march kakao group let me know. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pres30 Posted March 14, 2014 Share Posted March 14, 2014 I don't believe this to be true. The host I went let me do most of negotiating and I had full power to keep negotiating or take a price. When I noticed I was getting the average price for a procedure that most clinics charge or even a bit less I felt ok. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tj_joy Posted March 14, 2014 Share Posted March 14, 2014 Hi pres 30,How your surgery went ? I think if host mom get little bit commission is fine because she translate for you with out charge and went on to negotiate the price .How much you willing to pay is depend on you . that s fair.

ngalaxiee Posted March 14, 2014 Share Posted March 14, 2014 I know it's kind of far away, but anyone planning to visit Seoul in September? I've just booked my flight tickets, so I'll be around 3-14th Sept! Ahh super psyched! After so many months of web surfing, forum reading, emailing and planning, I've narrowed down my clinic choices to: TLPS, Dream and Teuim, though I might pop into Wonjin and View too. Hoping to do incisional double eyelid with lateral canthoplasty, cheekbone/zygoma reduction, buccal fat removal, botox for jaw and filler for aegyosal. God it's all going to cost me like 10.3M in total at the very least D: *faints* Anyway, pretty interested in Teuim atm because they've recently joined up with AT Aesthetic and now have Dr. Heungsik Park who performs more invasive procedures like rhinoplasty, facial contouring –- and even forehead reduction surgery! Sounds fascinating. Wonder how that works...never heard of it before...anyone got info on it? They're here now apparently: 대승빌딩 (Daeseung building), 102-2 Sindang-dong, Jung-gu...near Dongdaemun. And yeah, like another former mentioned, they're on the fifth floor and the door is kind of hard to find...treasure hunt! But they aren't replying to my recent emails...I wonder if they've changed their email now that they've combined with ATPS. :/ And Dream keeps saying they'll send me approximate price quotes but they never do xP ugh not really helping when it comes to financial planning really... TLPS' English consultant Melissa is lovely. I emailed TLPS last time for info on blepharoplasty, and when I contacted them again recently about zygoma reduction she said she remembered me LOL. She quoted me 4.2M for quick zygoma reduction but said I can still negotiate the price lower (since I only want to do one cheekbone really...) Apparently, TLPS is popular too...so I'm leaning towards them a bit, but I'm holding back a bit still because Teuim's B&A pictures for eyes are so nice T^T Dream's price quotes for eyes (the ones they sent me anyway pfft) are pretty low! 2M for incisional...compared to Teuim's 3M, Chungdam U's 3.2M and TLPS' 3.55M. For lateral canthoplasty too: 800k versus 1.5M, 900k and 1.2M. Dream has opened a new branch in Singapore too! You can find them in Paragon #17-03 (website here), and they're already accepting patients. They have a policy of not quoting via email though, so you might have to set up a Skype appointment or go in person. Just some information I've discovered over the past season. Hope it helps some of you! Sorry for long message guys xD Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

walkingpenguins Posted March 14, 2014 Share Posted March 14, 2014 Oh gosh thanks! I have read that thread before but at the time she said she really liked it so thank you so much for letting me know the update, I will definitely take that into consideration. And yeah I will be sure to write a detailed review of my experience after I get there Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
