Thanks Trang! When are you coming to Seoul? Today is my 1st day post surgery and my eyes are super swollen.....

 

[babyrose12]

Asked melissa if she could recommend me a good deswelling supplements or drink. She recommend this

Purchased at a pharmacy infront of galleria in apgeujong.
Told the pharmacist I want to get the swell go down ASAP, she recommend me to take these 2 together with the face liner


Each day 1 bottle of faceliner mixed with the liquid in the bottle, the powdery medicine to be taken 3x a day

Bought some dried strawberry snack, really craving for the junkfoodnow, bought it as a replacement.It taste awesome!


On the 9th was told to come again to take my nose tape. Dr Kim checked my nose and face. Holding my zygoma and mentioned best to stay on the liquid diet for 2 months TーT
After that they gave me deswelling injection and also usher me to another treatment room for deswelling session with warm light, nose pack to get rid off my black heads and another machine, not really sure what it was, nurse squirted gel all around my face then slide around and around on my skin, it felt a little cool, she mentioned it will help my skin cell to renew and heal it self.

On the 13th visitted tlps for the last time, dr yim checked as usual told me to massage my breat for 2 months 5x a day. Ushered to another room to receive breast massage. The nurse told me it's going to be really painful. I was nervous. But then when the massage started, I think the sensation is more like kneading your already really muscle ache chest. The massages last around 15 minutes, then followed with the warm light around my breast for deswell n speedy recovery.

I will need to go back on March for my second fat graft. Can't wait to go again ^^.

Hello everyone,

I am considering to take up a lipo treatment in korea. However it seems that most of Korea's clinics offer only the normal Lipo treatment? I was wondering if the more popular clinics offer minimum intrusive Lipo treatment?

I would also like to know if it is actually advisable for me to go for lipo as I am only in my twenties. Moreover, I am quite fit, but somehow I just can't lose the excess weight that I gained after I stopped playing competitive sports.

Any respond/advise to this will be greatly appreciated

Hey toxxg, you can try this website www.vaser.com and check if it suits you? PSP told me about it and I think it's worth looking at if you want a less invasive lipo treatment...

Hi babyrose12, I was actually planning to get a lipo and fat graft in TLPS...May I know did you only do your FG on your face? How does it look like now? Also, how's your boobs feeling now??

If you don't mind, may I know your kakao ID? I am planning to get the surgery on Tuesday, I was a bit annoyed by the consultant way of asking " how much money do you bring here " to determine the cost of my procedures.... It's like she's trying to rip me off or something...

But the doctors are very nice and looks OK. But I'm still confused whether they can really deliver or not.... HELP...

Hi, may i know if anyone has tried whitening injections in Korea? I have been doing my injections in my home country, but from what I am seeing from the website (MJ Plastic Surgery clinic) as stated below, the price of each jab is almost half of what I am paying now in my home country.

I am thinking of doing at least 3 jabs during my 12 day stay in Korea. My doctor in my home country said that it is even perfectly safe to have the jab everyday, so 4 days apart sounds okay to me.

Anyone knows if it is okay to do a double eyelid surgery together with these jabs?

What clinic did you go to, and how did this surgery clinic mess up your eyes exactly?

I'm not super-thrilled with my eyes either (my very stubborn doctor did not care about what I wanted at all and refused to fix the ptosis on my right eye, and the procedure was a nightmare), but I am still fairly impressed with the lack of scarring I've endured this time around (I had revision eyelid surgery). When I had my eyes done in the United States, I scarred so badly (though the procedure was much more painless, quick, and easy). I don't know, I kind of wish I had not gotten double eyelid surgery at all and just had non-cosmetic ptosis correction.

HEY PEOPLE.


In my honest opinion, do not go to seoul for plastic surgery. If you are a Korean residing there, then by all means, go. But if you are a Singaporean like me, or a foreigner, THINK TWICE before going, REALLY.


I was just like you guys a few months ago, researching on the best clinics I should go in seoul for my plastic surgery. And whenever I see a person saying that his/her ps did not succeed or advising other people to do their ps in their home country instead, I would just tell myself that I wouldn't be as unlucky as them. But, in reality, there is a possibility that your ps will not turn out like how you expected it to be. And when that happens, I tell you, the feeling aint good at all.


My plastic surgery gave me disappointing results and I had been feeling really, really down the past few months...to the point where I actually had to go to a psychologist. I was crying almost everyday as I felt that my plastic surgeon made me uglier than before. If I had my ps done in my home country (Singapore), this might not even happen as the ps would take extra care to fix my eyes as he knows I can sue him if he didn't do a good job. OR even if the surgery turned out bad, you can just go back to the same surgeon and get things revised immediately. But, for me, I couldn't consult my plastic surgeon as I would have to spend lots of money just to go back to seoul to consult him again. And, to be frank, I don't even trust my plastic surgeon anymore. It really makes a big difference if you are a local consulting the surgeon, or a foreigner consulting him. The surgeon may appear friendly, but, if things go wrong, he might just push away all his responsibilities. EVEN if he says he can help you revise, you would have to spend lots of money again to fly to seoul to let him see you personally and then decide on the next thing to do. And if the surgeon says he has to monitor your condition or you have to wait for few more months to do the revisional surgery, you would have to spend more money again, flying back to your home country and then wait a few wks/months fly back again then see what the surgeon says again. Ok lah, if you are damn rich and can afford to fly here fly there, then by all means do your ps in any country you want. But even if u are damn rich, do you have the time, or even the mental strength to undergo all these? The surgeon may even be telling lies. He might ask you to go back few months later when actually he has to monitor your condition every 2 weeks, just because he's busy or in actual fact, he doesn't give a **** even if you turn out ugly or not.


TRUST ME people, if you are someone who takes pride in his/her appearance, all the more you should not go to a foreign land to do something so important to your face/body. Do it in your home country instead. It's much safer and convenient. ESP if you are a Singaporean like me. The plastic surgeons here are good and definitely, much more responsible. If sth goes wrong, *snap* you are back at your clinic, listening to what the surgeon advises you to do. If you are going for minor surgeries like double eyelids and stuff, why cant you just do it in spore/home country? Are the surgeons that bad here/there? Ok, I'm not sure about other countries, but I know s'pore has many great plastic surgeons who can do your eyes well. Actually, if you are going for a more major operation, would you even wanna take such a risk to do it in another country? IF it turns out good, ok, you are just one of the very lucky ones. But if it doesn't, I tell you, you will feel damn helpless.


Okay, I think what you people might be thinking now are stuff like which clinic I did my ps and what ps I did. Trust me, I did my research and I went to a reputable clinic and plastic surgeon in seoul. But, you see, things still went wrong. I'm telling you people all this as I really, really don't want to see anyone else undergo the same trauma I faced the past few months. I'm genuinely concerned for you guys. I'm not discouraging ps, but I just hope you all will think twice before deciding to do your ps in another country.


All the best.

I have just had my surgery done at Pitangui and so far I am very happy with them. I got a face to face consultation with them on the day I arrived and then to met with Dr. Yoo, told him my areas of concern. He told me what he would do and why which was different from what Nicole, a fabulous translator, suggested while conversing online.

I did not want to use any translator as I found out that they normally get a commission from the clinic once we decide to go ahead with the operation. The commission is in the range of 20-30% and that is huge!! I came to Seoul alone with enough cash I believe would cover those procedures I wanted, believing that I would get a much better price than paying with credit card and I was right.

I have just got the following procedures done on Jan 15th: a Zygoma reduction by shaving, QMC Facelift, upper blepharospasty, lateral cantho, slanty eye correction, and fat graft to my forehead, temples, and laugh lines.

Now I am recovering at Lex Tourist Hotel which I booked at Booking.com and I saved 20% off of the rate given by the clinic. I will be here for ten more days and will try my best to give info on things I have experienced if I could be of any help to anyone here

 

[cinch87]

Hi snooker! thank u so much for sharing! did u book the hotel after u decided to proceed with pitangui or before? also did u exchange money at the korean airport? ty

 

[snooker]

The worst place you could exchange money would be at the airport unless it runs by a major bank (then it would be as good as withdrawing money from an ATM machine).

I exchanged money before I left the country and brought a little more than 12 millions in KRW. I have withdrawn two more millions KRW today at the Citibank ATM machine right next to the Lex Tourist Hotel and there was no withdrawal fee.

I reserved my room at Lex Tourist a Hotel using Booking.com while recovering from the anaesthesia LOL. Very hard working patient indeed.

Hi snooker,

Do you have a Citibank account? Were you able to withdraw 2 million all at once?

 

[snooker]

No I don't have a citibank account. Any ATM which accept an International cash card would be fine. The limit per transaction is 1,000,000 so I did it twice in a row and there wasn't any charges

I did 5 surgery, zygoma jaw fg boobs and nose.
FG look definitely great, I'm still waiting for the swell to go down around the jaw ,coz of the reduction.

Boobs looking high a little, already soft n looking natural . It's up to me now, the more I diligently do it the more it'll look n feel natural. The first few months is the crucial period~^^
