k-couture Posted May 21, 2015 Posted May 21, 2015 oooooo thanks for that. I been hoping to find some skin treatment promotions for hydro injection and what not but could never figure out where ppl are finding these low season promotions
xiledsoviet Posted May 21, 2015 Posted May 21, 2015 So what would be the best way to negotiate to those levels? I'm not sure if showing the clinic their ad is the best approach?
sodium Posted May 21, 2015 Posted May 21, 2015 2.5mil for zygoma would be quick zygoma where they only fix the side zygoma rather than a 3d zygoma reduction. and 2.5mil for mandible is not 3d where they cut a long piece of mandible until near the chin, they only cut a scalene-like triangle portion behind the ear.
chibiowl Posted May 21, 2015 Posted May 21, 2015 Ahh, I see, that's pretty educational. The good news is that's probably what I want to do for the mandible, my jaw isn't really square. I really just want what you mentioned, a triangle portion cut out. So that's a good thing to know for negotiation so I don't get tricked into paying the price for a full square jaw surgery. The zygoma is something I will need to consider though, whether quick zygoma or 3D zygoma will be necessary. People have told me that my zygoma don't protrude that much so quick zygoma could probably work but I feel slightly otherwise. That's something I have to consider then... ~o~ EDIT: Do you know what's a reasonable/advertised price for 3D zygoma then?
k-couture Posted May 21, 2015 Posted May 21, 2015 anyone tried using those promotions hj posted as a foreigner? As in will they tell you those are foreigner only prices?
chibiowl Posted May 21, 2015 Posted May 21, 2015 From what I've heard, foreigners will never get the exact listed price on the ads but you can certainly use them as a bargaining chip. Show the ad and show them that you know the price and how low they can actually go. You will probably get a lower price than someone who doesn't have the ad though you won't get what locals get.
hj88 Posted May 21, 2015 Posted May 21, 2015 Definitely say you saw their ad if you are going to that particular clinic. If you're going to a different clinic for a similar procedure say "I know that XX Clinic is offering X procedure for 1 million won. Here's their ad. Can you match that price? What's your best price?"
hj88 Posted May 21, 2015 Posted May 21, 2015 Largely agree. Although I'm definitely not Korean and neither is my BF and we managed to get local price. It helps to speak and read a bit of Korean though
sodium Posted May 22, 2015 Posted May 22, 2015 I recommend quick zygoma rather than 3D zygoma unless your front zygoma is sticking out way too much. Having some volume on the front zygoma rather than the sides is considered pretty, and if you do 3D it will become flat at the front and usually girls with flat front zygoma use fillers and fat graft to fill it in. The photo on the left represents what you would look like if you got 3d zygoma and flatten the front zygoma, and the photo on the right represents what you could look like if you only flatten the sides and keep the front volume.
chibiowl Posted May 22, 2015 Posted May 22, 2015 Well, first of all I should probably clarify that I'm male. XD But from that picture alone, I agree with you that the photo on the right does look much better. I'll probably get the doctors/consultants to do a photoshop projection of what I'll look like for each kind of zygoma and decide from there. EDIT: Where did you get that image from though? It seems like it could come from somewhere with more educational details.
sodium Posted May 23, 2015 Posted May 23, 2015 From my experience, I've seen a lot of males go for quick zygoma rather than 3D and they also like the look of the image on the right because it's more youthful. Also, I got the image from a before and after of frontal cheek implants, so I don't think it could help much.
hj88 Posted May 23, 2015 Posted May 23, 2015 Hey guys, it seems even the notoriously expensive Banobagi has event prices as well! Right now they are offering event prices for face surgery: front chin (I.e osteotomy etc) for 3.15 mill won, zygoma for 3.5 mill won and "all for one" square jaw for 4.55 mill won. I've attached the ad for any who might need it
flojo1985 Posted May 25, 2015 Posted May 25, 2015 thought i'd contribute... jw quoted me 4500-5500 usd open rhinoplasty with septal cartillage for tip and silicone on bridge + alarplasty.... 6000-6500 usd for mandible reduction...
flojo1985 Posted May 25, 2015 Posted May 25, 2015 wow that's great.... i think i'm going to check out banobagi... definitely way cheaper than jw...
hj88 Posted May 25, 2015 Posted May 25, 2015 It's a special event price so it's not their daily rate, but obviously it means they do lower their prices significantly at times, especially compared to what they usually quote foreigners If you have your heart set on JW though maybe just show them the Banobagi ad and see if they are willing to match those prices for your jaw surgery?
