koreasaurus Posted December 20, 2014 Posted December 20, 2014 OH YES THAT FOOD Goodluck kkim120! Hope you find the right surgeon for you! Have a safe trip! We look forward to reading your updates (:
xbambix Posted December 21, 2014 Posted December 21, 2014 You guys someone died at Wonjin last week getting facial contouring...so so so sad. She was so young too..
xbambix Posted December 21, 2014 Posted December 21, 2014 Dr. In Seok Hwang is really really good..used to be at Wonjin and is now at ID.
koreasaurus Posted December 21, 2014 Posted December 21, 2014 Hey, just wondering if you can source this? I looked for articles but couldn't find any. I'm curious if it was the actual procedure or anesthesia that was at fault. Also, I recall reading Wonjin was blacklisted.
kkim120 Posted December 21, 2014 Posted December 21, 2014 Guys, so I kind of have the beginnings of a cold. Scratchy throat with some phlegm and my nose was runny in the morning... Does anyone have experience doing surgery while sick?? I came to Korea for rhino. Please, please tell me yes. Brian from April 31 said its okay, but I'm wondering if anyone here has experience with it. Thanks guys!
kimmmy78 Posted December 21, 2014 Posted December 21, 2014 Anyone alone in seoul now? I just consulted teium for eyes this am n then going to DA later. Anyone doing eyes this dec trip?
chlak5 Posted December 21, 2014 Posted December 21, 2014 What other clinics are you looking at? Only Teuim and DA? Are you only doing your eyes?
ibenlim Posted December 21, 2014 Posted December 21, 2014 Anybody have good experience with eclipse laser skin treatment. Pls share
ibenlim Posted December 22, 2014 Posted December 22, 2014 @khim Get some redoxon vit c. Drink it like beverage, keep warm
koreasaurus Posted December 22, 2014 Posted December 22, 2014 Hey kim, I recall reading a long time ago that someone also caught a cold but was still able to go through with their rhino. They just had to sign a form that said the clinic wouldn't be held responsible if they got an infection from it.
xbambix Posted December 22, 2014 Posted December 22, 2014 http://star.mbn.co.kr/view.php?no=1552780&year=2014 This is the article--it doesn't name the hospital but you can tell when you watch the video that it's WJ. From what I can tell after the surgery they took her to recovery and she just wouldn't wake up. Re: being blacklisted I haven't been a member long enough (or maybe just haven't read enough posts) to know which clinics are blacklisted or not but I feel like there are always good surgeons at places even if they are blacklisted and not so good surgeons at places that have majority glowing reviews. From what I know, WJ is known for being good with breast augmentation and not much else..hopefully they will find out what the cause was and inform the public. If it's something that could have been prevented like the previous incident at Grand, I hope tough measures are put in place to ensure that a tragedy like this doesn't happen again..
kkim120 Posted December 22, 2014 Posted December 22, 2014 Oh I'm doing my eyes too! I consulted at DA on Saturday. Which doctor did you consult with? I consulted with Dr. Jung yeon woo.
koreasaurus Posted December 22, 2014 Posted December 22, 2014 Thanks for the link! You can do a quick search to see the blacklisted clinics, I can't remember if it's a Korean list or a list that this forum created. I think it might be a mix of both, but not 100% certain, I'll have to look back. I agree that it's possible to have good surgeons at blacklisted clinics and bad ones at popular clinics. However, I think it's also important to note that some clinics made it to the blacklist for switching surgeons: thinking you'll be getting work done by the "good" surgeon but end up getting it done by some plastic surgery trainee. For the Grand incident, it's really unfortunate about what happened but it can happen to any clinic, really. It could be a mistake that happened on the patients part (ex: giving wrong info to the anesthesiologist, etc...). I'm not sure if it was ever stated. Anyways, just do your research guys!
