I had my eyes consultation with Dr Kang yesterday, the price is too high! ptostis plus full incision is USD$6000. I didn't go for it.

Bit of an update, 11-12 weeks in.

Nose is deswelling okay. Still can't really see a narrower, more defined bridge, but patience is the key here. It can take much longer for all of the swelling to go down. But the hump is gone and the tip looks nicer, so I'm pretty happy.

Eye healed a while back and is still all good. Has actually made a great difference, one sleepy eye was very odd looking when I look back at old photos.

Chin implant has had no problems whatsoever and has made a huge difference to my profile -highly recommend.

And now the bad news. $6600USD worth of Acculift procedures and thread lifting to remove my double chin and tighten loose skin around my jawline has done nothing. I took some comparison photos the other day and there is literally no change. There is a tiny bit of swelling still in my double chin, but I seriously doubt that when it clears up there will be much, if any difference. I have read many surgeons and patients discredit thread lifting and I can only speak of my experience that I can't see a difference at all. Perhaps if you are a little older and have noticeable skin hanging from your jawline it would fix it, but for me just looking for more definition it has not done the job. And I imagine it is the same for Acculift. Obvious fat deposits can be removed, but mine is very minimal and some surgeons argued not even fat, but loose skin. One surgeon even felt that it was related to a muscle problem. At the end of the day, I tried to make the best decision I could, based on research and gut instinct about the surgeons that I consulted with. April 31 felt that I needed muscle work for the double chin and one of their facelifts for the jaw (their lift specialist is quite amazing and has a range of options that I didn't see anywhere else), so I will revisit them.

I am still in discussion with JW and they have seen my recent photos and offered a free revision which I do appreciate. However the revision they are offering is more Acculift! This doesn't make sense to me at all, as all of the fat should have been removed in the first place.

I'll keep you guys updated as things progress, but after travelling to Korea twice and spending over $20K AUD on surgery it won't happen fast!

Thanks for the update. I'm planning to make a trip to JW for fat grafting and thread facelifting in Feb 2017, really want to know how it works. How long does the swelling completely go down? Do you feel any pain or uncomfortable after the procedure? Are they using absorbable thread? Thanks!
