monixtuma Posted February 3, 2016 Share Posted February 3, 2016 Hehehe.... I don't see that. I'm sorry. I send emails and it took a long time for me to get respond. I've consult with ID, GRAND, JW. These clinics was offer medical services for foreigners. But, if you send email to smaller or mid size clinic then will get longer time to get responds. So, consult or contact via whatsapp/kakao/phone are much more faster to get repond. I've test them to consult during december and the responds is late. Well, i don't think that clinics that don't asnwe email might have a poor after care. It's true that send email will took longer time to respond, because it can stuck on general folder. So, contact them instead by phone, whatsapp, kakao or somewhere else. JW staff was emailed me and reply that they are not able to respond back fast because there are a lot of people are visit during this season and send email so it's quite hard to respond fast. TL, THE LINE, JK was said that i need to visit the clinic for consultation with doctor. Banobagi are not respond to my email or when i am contact them on other thing. JW are still contact with me until january. ID and GRAND, i have consult with them on december. Someone here was said that if you contact DFK, then they will send respond quick so i think Banobagi are only set up with agent. I'm still not interested with agent. That's the real story here. I'm not decided to booked my surgery yet, i will re-think again. Also, i never said anything bad about plastic surgery clinics like other members here.

nurcihan Posted February 3, 2016 Share Posted February 3, 2016 I contacted a few weeks ago with DFK and they answered me the day after. Then I sent them my pictures and now Im waiting the answer again. But now I'm thinking that the best is contract a translator's service, catch a flight and go to korea to visit the clinics. DFK DFK are unreliable, right? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gantz Posted February 3, 2016 Share Posted February 3, 2016 Well I can't speak personally about him since I have never met him..From others people's experiences all translators seem ''unreliable'' and all take commision. MaiQ mentioned they hired a translator from the government with knowledge of medical terms but it was expensive (they shared the cost between a few ppl though). You might want to check out her posts and all the posts on pf in general. There is one thread dedicated to translators and their practices here:# and there are mentions of their practices in many other threads as well..

monixtuma Posted February 3, 2016 Share Posted February 3, 2016 Hi there ! I am not said that it's unreliable. In my opinion, everyone has diffferent journey. This is my opinion, if you are new with plastic surgery then do research is good. It's your choice if you contact an agent/broker, that's your thing. I am not said to avoid them, if you have that money and still within your budget to paid for the 'commission fee' then go on. If you have limited budget, you can go to clinics that offers translator for you. Also you can go with translator and visit clinics that is not offer translator. That's your choice. I am not said that it's bad or to avoid them, it's your thing. I've read their service that is free of charge, someone here said that is not free of charge but their get commision from the clinic paid for them so the surgery cost will be that high than normal. Someone here said that is not true. For me, if they are not being open and honest about the price and services with their clients then i'm not into it. I will instead travel abroad alone and used in-house translator, but that's my choice. Agent/broker supposed to be open and honest, they need to be accredited and they can prove their credibility. Also, they supposed not pushed their clients to choose clinics that actually affiliated or linked also procedures. You as a client supposed to treated nicely, you are deserved it. You are the one who are make the final decision. I am never interested with agent. If you want the trip are hassle-free and have that money for paid them, it's your business. There is pros and cons about anything. If you are not know that much about plastic surgery, then do your research but i caution to over research. Be aware with informations on internet or advice from people on internet. Even recommendations from friends or someone else in real life, i will think again before believe them. That's my opinon.

microchip Posted February 4, 2016 Share Posted February 4, 2016 Agree. Nobody works for free. They have to get their commission somewhere so if you are not paying them, then it must be the clinics. So the clinics will have to up their prices in your case to pay the agents. This is my opinion. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nurcihan Posted February 4, 2016 Share Posted February 4, 2016 Thank you guys, I'm so glad to listen your advices. And you are in the truth, nobody works free and I don't have the budget to pay for more. My presupost is very limited. I will considering the travel to korea alone and inform myself. Thank you ever so much!!! And apologize for my bad english! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sunshineusa Posted February 6, 2016 Share Posted February 6, 2016 yeah, you're right. "we cannot have the cake and eat it too". Im still doing research if I need vline or bc its the machester that make my face wider. what's your list for vline now? may I know? I'm so lost for finding the right doctor with the good clinic, some are good and some are bad, they are mixed reviews so we dont know which one is good and safe to go >.< Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gantz Posted February 6, 2016 Share Posted February 6, 2016 Sure, but keep in mind that I am going to Korea in 2 years which means that this list will be updated or changed as time progresses. Here you go: -Darps -Lavian -iWell -Dodream -Ruby -Samsung -Samsung Line -Korea -NJH I repeat, this is definately NOT my final list, I still haven't read any Korean reviews, these will affect my final judgement. There other reputable clinics out there that offer the v-line procedure but their results were too natural for my liking or they don't offer any of the other procedures I am planning to have. Some examples for the latter would be The Face Dental and EverM. I hope this helped Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
heartclock Posted February 6, 2016 Share Posted February 6, 2016 Had v-line a year ago. Brief thoughts for anyone considering it: 1) I'm happy I did it, I look significantly better, 2) still had to do jaw botox because I have big masseter muscles and the surgery didn't do much about it, 3) I have no sagging, I think because the surgeon was fairly conservative and I'm quite young. My advice, if you're considering it, would be to choose long cut over t-osteotomy (less invasive, downtime seems much better), go conservative, and be prepared for a lot of suffering. I'm very scared now any time I have the least bit of trouble breathing because waking up from the surery and having to struggle to breathe was so traumatizing. Again, I'm very happy with my choice, but make sure you get it right the first time because I would NEVER do any kind of facial bone surgery again.

chloefinds Posted February 27, 2016 Share Posted February 27, 2016 I'm scared of having to constantly a threadlift or acculift after jaw reduction..Did the doctor say that you need it eventually? Also, which place did you get it done? I'd love to know a recommended place! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gantz Posted February 27, 2016 Share Posted February 27, 2016 I have seen some good results from Jayjun for fc on the chinese forum, but I know nothing about their docotrs, I haven't checked them out yet. About Unique, I thought they only did eyes? I haven't checked them out either.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
