lolipop32swiss Posted May 4, 2015 Share Posted May 4, 2015 Hi everyone, I have known this forum for the last 8 years. Back then i was looking for a nose revision specialist already. I have been seeing so many promoters putting fake reviews while doing research and new forms of promoters who have bee using different ways to promote the clinics they work for too Smarter ways and less obvious I feel so sorry for the girls who are new to PS and come here and been influencing by them and have botched jobs or not so good results... so therefore, even though i was lazy to write a review about the clinics i went to and wonder why all the girls who had amazing results didnt write about it either I decided to write about my experience this time in Seoul. Have been sharing photos with my kakao group chat already I gotta thanks all the girls who I have been contacting for the last 1.5 year who never wrote reviews about their experiences but who had amazing results and were willing to share with me their photos so i can make my own decision too. Without seeing real patients, my choice would have been harder to make. In Korea, they will apply soon a legislation that forbids promoting ps clinics with pictures, price events, etc because they have been a lot of issues related to this matter. My friends who works for big clinics told me this. I don't go to big clinics because of swapping drs. Thats business reality and there is a chance that happens. I also avoid clinics that do too much marketing. A girl i met from this forum has had botched job from JW. I feel so sorry for her as after ps can be so depressing already! So I thought i would write this review straight after surgery but didnt get the chance to do so even though i stayed in Seoul for 32 days. I met some wonderful girls thanks to this forum they will also write a review about their experience too. 2 girls in my group went to DA I must say dr Lee made them very pretty I have been exchanging with a dozen of nice girls who went to DA the last and I absolutely love their results but as we are talking about plastic surgery , i still planned to visit 24 clinics before making my decision up. However, in reality i only made it to 20 clinics My origin plan was to visit 5 clinics per day but in reality this is not possible especially for my case as i needed to see diffrent doctors in one clinic. Moreover you need to wait for drs to finish their surgeries sometimes so I would strongly recommend 3 clinics per day if you need to see different drs like me. First, I arrived at Incheon airport after 15 hours of trip ☹ Went to hire a simcard at olleh counter and got a sim card with unlimited data for kwn 44,000 for 30 days. After 1 hour, the taxi drop me to my hotel. The fare was 95.000 Kwn. Anyways, I started with 2 hours of delay consutaltion with DAPRS and my cousin came with me. The clinic is located near Paris Baguette at Sinnonhyeon Station, exit 6. I met Katie, their english translator for the firt time.She was nice and very professionnal. She was not very talkative on Kakao but very informative. Not in a too friendly way nor fake and tell you a lot of things. She is very cute but i think she is all natural haha The clinic is very busy for a mid sized clinic for 3 floors. Some chinese customers, thai, even a very handsome european guy. Katie took me to take pictures first before the consultations with dr for face and breast and then CT Scan. (my advice here is to buy the ct scan from the first clinic you go to or else you would do it again and again in other clinics. I learned that but on the second day only. April 31 didnt let me buy it from them though even I paid 80 000 Kwn for it but Jewelry clinic did). I met Dr Koo first, the breast sepcialist. He is board certified surgeon I checked through www.prskorea.com and he is board certified surgeon. My cousin was with me, Katie asked if she can come with me during consultations. It would be too long to tell you in details but he was the only dr with the dr in idea clinic to point out about my protruding bones on the upper right breast, which will limits the size of the implant. One dr in Paris and Geneva did told me that already by the way but i didnt want to go for round shapes implants back then. After an hour of consultation with Dr Koo, went throught my list of questions, dr Koo understood what i was asking for but answered in Korean. Not sure if it was because my cousin was there or not. It wasnt a rush consultation, he went straight to the point and was pleasant but distant korean style At that time, i didnt know he would be the only one who would point out that protruding « issue » for my breast. But i only visiited 20 other clinics and maybe i should have visited me. There are around 4000 surgeons in Korea, and around 1000 are board certified surgeons. You have plenty of choices to choose your own surgeon. Then I got to meet Dr Lee. I came to Korea to do eyes, nose revision, zygoma, angularplasty. I was excited to see him as i was so impressed by his works on the girls on forum and one in particular, she is from Switzerland and shared with my kakao group chat all her experience in details with DAPRS. She looks drop dead gorgeous now !!!!! So i prepared some words in korean to tell him in person, and i made eveyrone laugh when i said it out loud. I think my pronouciation not very good. Haha He checked my ct scan and began with this : « I must admit that your nose is really well done, i dont recommend you touch it. » I was like what ??? but my nose is ugly cant you do anything about it ? Dr lee said no, it is not ugly. It s well done inside and outside ☹ OK he pursued with my eyes. He said he thinks my eyes are pretty ☹ I wanted to have those big eyes Dr lee makes to my friends so I asked him what if i begged you to do something about it ? I dont like this and that then he said, sorry i wont do anything to your eyes nor nose. Dont need to mention how much i hated him at that time. Lol But it made my cousin so happy that she yelled out loud how much she likes Dr Lee. My cousin is korean, believe it nor not, never done plastic surgery and told me i shouldnt do anything to my eyes or nose. But im quite stubborn and I left DA thinking well i will find a dr who can do my eyes and nose together with my fc. But Dr lee recommended me zygoma reduction like the other 19 clinics lol And angularplasty and about my chin, he said he would like to shave it a bit as i was quite reluctant when he talks about t-oesteotomy. Didnt want to have any screws on my face ! Both consultations were very pleasant. I heard some that Dr lee can be very distant, arrogant and heard that he suggested too many procedures to some patients. As for my experience, it was not like that and he is quite humble and make you feel at ease. We spent another hour in consultation with my cousin, Katie and I. Dr lee speaks great english but didnt speak in english the whole time wiht me. My friend is a dentist and she booked with him straight away, and they spoke in english the whole time together. She said they talk a lot and he used a lot of techincal words Dr lee answered all my questions and god knows i have a lot to ask all the drs and both Dr lee and Dr Koo showed me a lot of patience and respect. My friends said that it was because i was with my cousin but my 2 friends who went there had the same experience and they speak english only. To be honest, Dr lee and Dr Koo totally understood what i wanted and seemed to know exactly how they are going to make me a better me. I followed with other visits to other clinics. In total, i visisted 20 for nose, face contouring, liposuccsion, BA, FG. I spent 2 weeks in consultations before I booked with DAPRS. I ended up doing fc, this includes zygoma reduction, angloplasty, genioplasty, full face fat graft and Breast augmentation with tear drop implants. Note that I only paid DA for shaving a bit the chin to make it less wide. And Dr lee asked me just before surgery what did i think about t-oesteotomy as he thinks this would be the best method for me, therefore having screws to fix it. I told him i trusted him and let him do what was the best for me ( was thinking should i go back and pay for the extra screws and this method now or after surgery haha). So i said i leave it up to you to dr Lee. He said, no. Your opinon matters to me. I want to know what you think about it. (I knew a girl from last year who didnt want to do genioplasty after zygoma and jaw reduction now coming back in July to have genioplasty in the end, so i didnt want to have to come back just for that). I told him i was ok with that if he thinks it will look better. It would be too long of a story to write about all my 19 other consultations and I felt bad last time i wrote sthg about Dr Kwon at Teuim clinic. It is not because my friends in ps business laugh at him and that I found all his pictures ugly that some of you will not like him so this time around, i wont bad mouth about any clinics. There are 3 top clinics i liked and went to 3 consultations. Some clinics like April 31 does not allow you to come and see dr more than once though Brian was nice to say i would have been able to see dr a second time. I did not end up going there, too much sales procedures for me And my 4th one was with DA and now im post op one month and 2 weeks and one day and i dont regret my choice.

lolipop32swiss Posted May 4, 2015 Author Share Posted May 4, 2015 Will i recommend DA ? It went all well for me at least and I have what i came for. And I don't want to recommend anything to anyone because some friends recommended everm and grin and even another well know clinic and had botched job from them. So my friends felt sorry and got blamed for it. So you guys have to do your research but there are some advices i can give you that help me choose DA. Moreover, I don't think Da needs my recommendation. Their clinic has grown so fast for an obvious reason and they don’t need my realself review to keep growing it. Dr lee is really talented to my opinion in a way that he knows what he is doing and do it safely. He is not a magician and he is human. Mistakes can and will happen to any surgeons that i am pretty sure of. Just keep in mind that. One thing happened to me while i was talking with one friend in the waiting room, a girl interrupted us to ask me who did my face and and all. It was post day 14 nearly. I told her what surgeries i went through and she asked for my kakao. She now had her surgeries and thanks me for sharing pics with her… And i showed my BA’s photos from dr Koo, now 2 european friends want to come with me in October to Dr Koo haha I love my results, very natural and i will keep my group chat updated if they want to but very hard to start sharing photos with ppl i don't know and you never know where your pictures will end up on. So i hope that you guys will do research in a group like i did with my girls. So much fun before and after surgery. I think my fg won't last long because i laughed too much everyday with them You just need to find one surgeron who is confident and skilled enough to give you what you need or at least try his best to. Communication is very important. Bring pictures. Be a pain in the *** like me lol, at least, they will remember you and know what you want the moment they see you -communication went great with both drs and I needed that to have my surgery all in one place. I had the feeling that we understood each other. -I saw more than 10 girls who turn out to be very pretty thanks to Dr lee & Dr Koo. -Do not base your opinion on the photos on their websites. I dont think that they are all nice. My friend who owns a clinic told me her photos got stolen by Wonjin and other clinics and they had to sue them and got compensation from them. Such a bad and unethical industry but it seems that it is very common to do but maybe thats the reason why they had put in place this year that regulation about promoting ps clinics. -You can check whether your surgeon is board certified surgeons but some of my friends had botched job still with those drs so go with a dr who has over 10 years of experience in his field. -Finally, he didnt suggest me more surgeries than i came for, he actually suggested less than i wanted. I hated him for that but thats also the reason why i chose DA in the end. It is important to keep your features and dont become someone else. Dr lee wanted to keep what he thinks gives me some charm and did not agree on doing all i first requested that makes him a good surgeon for me. I have to say a big thank you to DA’s night shift team dr and nurses who speak perfect english. They were so caring when i was so weak…I went to buy them some cakes famous from Osaka at mon chouchou. Truely grateful to Katie too, who was there when i woke up at nearly 7pm on a Saturday night ! one friend woke up and none of the staff speaks english to her nor chinese. She was scared and weak. I dont wish you ever have to go through this when you wake up. Worse nightmare ever. Katie waited for me to feel ok and see if i needed anything. After Ps, I fel very cold. I am the type of person who is cold all the time even in summer time in Australia so i asked for 2 extra heated blankets i requested and an extra mobile heater if i can say that in english to make sure i will be warm enough…I had the room for myself, tv , fridge and room to place my stuff safely too. I felt so bad for Katie, i kept telling her it is ok you can go home now please… she went home i dont know when as i fell asleep. The next day, I saw Dr Lee on a Sunday and he came to check on me and tell me that surgery was successful i didnt need to worry. Then i got discharged with pumpking porridge, some medecines for a couple of days and 2 ice packs. DA gave me garment for my BA free of charge but I was supposed to pay for them but they didnt ask me to pay after surgery even when i mentionned about it. I hired someone to help me daily After BA you cant carry anything, hard to lift anything, push doors even. So i didnt want my friends to worry about me nor to bother them even though they keep saying it is no bothering. I hired him to take me to aiport too cause i couldnt carry my 3 suitcases nor put them on the airlines check in counter. Keep in mind that you cant lift anything heavy for the first month after your BA. You can aslo ask your airlines to send your suitcases to your home address this will avoid you to pick them up on arrivals. Now I am post op 1 month one week and one day, stil somel swelling but im truely happy with my results so far. I can take pictures now without deleting all of them afterwards, my face looks slimmer and smooth. My fg makes me look younger and less tired. My BA look super natural and I am glad i chose Dr Koo cause my friends went there same time and chose round implants in some other clinics and still look very stiff and fake ☹ On top of that my good experience with da , i met amazing girl friends who i spent lot of time with. Shopping, eating , going to beauty salons, etc. I will give you all addresses you can pm for that. I have shared my pictures with my kakao group friends and also my experience too already. Im not a promoter and wont be on the forum anymore until next time in October for my post op 6 month check up and fg top up. Now back to normal life with a happier me and more confident me. Have so much details to tell but i took me 4 lunches times to write this so hope it will help some of you. I wish you all to have wonderful ps experience. You can pm if you find a good surgeon for rhinoplasty that will be skilled enought to do my nose revision haha I know all the clinics here that have been mentioned on chat and forum already but i would like one that is not doing marketing to foreigners and that is truly skilled. Take care everyone and Happy ps trips to come to you all Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

lolipop32swiss Posted May 4, 2015 Author Share Posted May 4, 2015 my friend's friend didn't like dr Lee either because he recommended more procedures when she went lol She hated him for that. Dr lee was no different that any other drs i visited. They did not want to do my eyes nor my nose. Only jewelry agreed on doing my nose and Dr kim from april31 if i really insisted and Garosu. I really wanted to have my eyes done by Dr lee but ended up doing one eye surgery at Oscar. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

lolipop32swiss Posted May 7, 2015 Author Share Posted May 7, 2015 Motty26, i doubt it but thanks for your nice words. If i was as you describe, i wouldn't have gone under surgery. with my wide and protruding cheeks, i was the subject of everyone's laugh. And when you take pictures, you only see my cheeks. And i could never tie my hair up before and now i can do all this. I only regret not to have done it before. Today, i have just noticed that i can't wear my sunglasses anymore. They are too big after face contouring surgery. Moreover, My cheeks used to hold them on my face and now I'm so happy it is not the case anymore! I can't wait for the swelling to be gone and the final results. My friends look their best 6 months post-op so I have to be patient. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
