I was wondering if anyone knows the average prices they have in DA for each surgery (v-line, double eye-lid, nose, etc.) I understand that it might not be possible to disclose the exact amount but a simple (but accurate) price range will do. Thank you to anyone that can help.

I had surgery at DA on June 15th and hate my results from the day the stitches came off. I keep thinking it will get better but it hasn't improved much. Oh and their English translator Katie seems very nice until you have your surgery. After she stops responding to your emails and concerns. The responses I got from her when I told her in person about my concerns about my results all she said was it will get better. She never even offered me to talk to the doctors. I had to demand to see the doctors! I paid 17million for vline, nose, des, fg and under eye bag removal.

My nose nostrils are uneven, one side is noticeably higher than the other. My eyes were so bad I had chemosis(white part of eyes were swollen) causing it to stick out of my eye. They refused to take me to an eye doctor till 3 weeks later. Then I had to pay for additional meds for my eye. It's been 5 weeks and my eye is better but not 100%. I have an appointment with an eye specialist here where I live this week. Too much fat was taken out of my under eye so they look hollow now. My des are uneven and sausage eyes.

My fg is ok, nothing great. My vline which dr lee is suppose to be famous for is ok, but my face looks my round after. It "might" be due to swelling but I can tell it's not going to be great.

This isn't a good clinic! Stay away! If you want to know more send me a private message. I bet some of these people posting are promoting DA. Please be careful when reading reviews!

Omg I am in Korea and I am actually going ahead with it. I finally decided I will go to Daprs. It was between TLPS and Daprs but I only chose TLPS because whenever I type in cheekbone reduction in Google, they are the ones that come up the most. I don't know if that is because so highly recognised or if it is just heavy promoting? But I haven't actually seen many personal selfie pics from people who have had zygoma reduction at TLPS (only those which the clinic also post the,selves on heir website). Whereas Daprs have countless individual posts showing real selfie before and afters.

I have my consultation tomorrow and then hopefully surgery will be on Monday. I want to get a very narrow face.

On another note. Something which put me off TLPS (however this is not just limited to their clinic, in the majority of clinic before and afters I have noticed the same), often the ears look completely different in the after pic, which makes me assume the majority of photos are photoshopped. And they don't change in the way you would tink. You would imagine if you reduce the cheekbones it would make the ears look more prominent and more visible in frontal view, but in many before and after pics the ears aren't bigger, but just are a completely different shape. I don't believe for one second that all these people have had an otoplasty at the same time. But at is just a rant about other clinics ethics and morals, photoshopping all their pics. But the Daprs pics, majority that I have seen are selfie pics from actual individuals (not posted by the clinic) so I am confident they are pretty genuine. Wish me luck at my consultation :X

I would not go to tlps even it is free lollipop!:P

It's quite pathetic that a clinic with four supposedly 'top' doctors have to pay for Facebook likes. I feel I made the right choice going with Daprs, but will have to see how the consultation goes today. I hope I get a good vibe from Dr Lee. Sometimes I find that Korean doctors can come across quite stand-off ish which to me just seems like they are being rude (sometimes even arrogant) and as if not interested. It's always important to have a good rapport with the surgeon. Will report back to you all later.

FWIW, TLPS is already famous amongst koreans but not so much amongst westerners so that may be why you are seeing so many english ads - to try and increase their western client base.

Here in Korea, the biggest advertisers BY FAR are Jewellery and BKin my opinion. I see their ads literally everywhere. But many other clinics advertise heavily, some that you guys won't even have heard of. TLPS is not a heavy marketer here in korea.

I don't think this is the best way for you to judge the results of a clinic, whether they advertise or not.

Advertising is a marketing / business decision and Not a surgical / medical decision.

I own my own business (completely unrelated to PS) and we constantly advertise on facebook. That doesn't mean my produxts are bad!! Just trying to increase sales and get the name out there...

Another thing - Most clinics here offer free makeovers from time to time. This is how they get people to pose for before / afters (that most paid clients won't do). Otherwise it's illegal for the clinics to show you their patients pictures for privacy reasons.

This is also not a good indication of how trustworthy or good a clinic is.

All of the clinics that you guys talk about here offer these kinds of deals, you probably just don't see them if you can't read korean...
