goldfishintown Posted July 14, 2013 Share Posted July 14, 2013 I benefit alot fron purse forum and I decide to share. Will post things tat I always look out in here. Clinic= teuim Doctor= kwon Procedures= double eyelid, ptosis correction, epi and lateral. Price quoted in email= Dl+ ptosis is at 2.5 mil to 3 mil. Epi 1.4. Lateral 1.4 Price paid= 4.4 mil Tips= there is room for nego; pay cash to avoid tax. Bad= post surgery day 1, I went back to remove tapes. I cant believe that the nurse use same clinical tongs, what ever u call it , to clean my wound and eye dirt. I even saw previous patient used tapes.. my god... Dont ask me for pics. Will post shortly. Its post surgery day 3. Face swell like balloon. So far. No scars at inner corner of eyes. Yeah!!!!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
goldfishintown Posted July 14, 2013 Author Share Posted July 14, 2013 Anyway, I did posted tat another forum girl going teuim with me. She back out and left my deposit in the clinic. So tat ***** left with zero bargaining power. Tat is why i did not even consult other docs. I am sure she is reading this. You booked ur surgery slot and back out? Seriously, you expect me to help u to retrieve ur deposit? ? I wanted so badly to lie to you and swallow ur 300 000won. I believe in karma. So I didnt. And yes, I thank your effort to negotiate price for me but still u left me zero ****ing bargaining power. Anyway, this girl back out and went won jin. Done epi too. Result so far is there is scar. I hope it will lighten. Even I am mad at her. In short, dont go for what doc promise what they can do. Listen to what the doc cant do. In short, i am not saying won jin is bad. Is the doc tat is bad. Female doc. Dr jung. Dont go for doc's promise. Dont go for price. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

goldfishintown Posted July 14, 2013 Author Share Posted July 14, 2013 Its 3.33am in korea. I cant sleep so i will post in details now. Pre surgery. Tried to find sinnech in watson, guardian and unity. Result is singapore dont carry this brand. So I went to buy artica montana , the generic name of medicine. At singapore shopping centre. Near dhoby mrt. It call amber pharmacy singapore. My face still swell. Bad swell. So, its either medince is not strong or my swell is super bad. 100pills for 25sgd I think. Taken vitamin c too. Pre surgery part 2. I read a lot of different forum. Benefit the most from the forum. Things like where to stay bla bla.. But there are v v little in info on dr kwon. For more info. Go soompi forum. Pre surgery part 3. Dont go for price. Go for doc skill. For u to get better bargaining power. The most I can think of is go with more people. And the way to bargain is first do ur research on how much the doc is charging and find out the bottom line. The bargaining here is not like buying clothes in Thailand. Offer 100. U asked for 50. Then finalise at 70. The tell them what is ur price. And if the price is ok to them then that is the price. So I know kwon quoted someone last year july 3. 7mil for dl +ptotsis + epi. So I asked for this price. I also requested in my email before coming here if I were to have lateral at 4.4mil , can it be done. And teuim agreed at 4.4mil. Additional info, someone went for same 4 prodcedures as I do last yr at 5mil. But its revision. Bargaining at teuim. Not all clinics. Things to share part 1. Bk website is very comprehensive on the type of procedures. Oz website has a closer estimate price of sugery cost. Like I said, price in email is higher. Things to share part 2. My doc in mine is kwon from teuim. 2nd is iou , dr kang. Till now I cannot find their english website. Hahaha. So I did not email my pic for photo consultation. 3rd dr cho from bandoeye and dr shin from bk. Dr shin is recommended by a guy call kain in this forum. Things to share part 3. Hotel highland is at 66000 per night. Decent room. Free water and goodie bag. Goodie bag consists of 3 condoms, cotton wool , cotton bud, bla bla.. there is food delivery service. So ya, had porridge after sugery. At 8000 won. Its near teuim. Step out of teuim. Turn left. Walk about 200m. At the T cross junction. It is at right. Anither 200min. Things to care part 4. Bright ur own saline and cotton wool. V v v v v impt. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
flyingpigs Posted July 15, 2013 Share Posted July 15, 2013 Hi, did dr kwon propose lateral or u request for it? Cos from my understanding he usually dont recommend lateral, not sure why. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lovergirly Posted July 18, 2013 Share Posted July 18, 2013 hi, thank you for posting your eye surgery experience... did they make you sign some type of consent form (ex: if something goes wrong, you can't sue, etc...)?? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
goldfishintown Posted July 18, 2013 Author Share Posted July 18, 2013 I asked for lateral. Kwon didnt recommend. Yes, I am asked to sign a contract that teuim dont bear any responsibility for any complications. Dear all, today I removed my stitches. Kwon said tat my recovery is not doing well. Will take 2 mths to reduce swell. Unlike others who only need 7~10days.. will post my pic 2 mths later.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
