asgogoas Posted August 6, 2016 Share Posted August 6, 2016 Before I begin to share, I have to make it clear that I am not a promoter or anything because many people keep saying that a lot of posts here are advertisements. I am just being very satisfied with my results and the services from the clinic(especially the English translator there, Zach), so I want to give you guys more information about so as to offer you one more choice before going to have those big and dangerous surgeries. I got to know Cooki Plastic Surgery from few of my Korean friends(I am Malaysian currently studying in HK), they had rhinoplasty there and they all look so good! So they recommend me to Cooki PS which is very popular for doing facial contouring, but at the same time, do very good nose eyes and breast surgeries. I had consultation with them through kakaotalk and they are very patient to answer each and every question from me, and most importantly, their provide reasonable prices and you can negotiate down the price during face to face consultation(I will post the prices they offer me at the very last in this post). Because I trust my korean friends, so I didn’t consider other clinics and paid the clinic the ‘booking fee’ a month prior to my surgery date, so they gave me more discount. Haha lucky me. I had my facial contouring and rhinoplasty surgeries half a year ago. When I arrived the clinic, you will be soon amazed by looking at the receptionists’ faces, they are too beautiful to be true. As for guys, check out Zach’s face, and ask him to show you how he looked before having plastic surgeries, you wouldn’t believe it! That made my desire to have surgeries there even stronger. Back to the topic, the clinic was not very big but it was clean and cozy. They conducted blood test on me and had some CT/X-ray work(I don’t know what the machines were for haha), then I met the doctor, Dr. Cheng. Before I told him which part on my face upset me, he directly pointed our my problems: Cheekbone, Jaw line and chin. He exactly knew what could make me look prettier. I also consulted him with my nose and eyes, he agreed I could have some advancements on my nose by he said my eyes were already very pretty so suggested not to do so, and I listened to him. But my friend told me afterwards which I didn’t even realise myself that the Doctor was so nice, he was very honest to patients and want me to look good despite he could earn more money than giving me eyes surgeries! After I woke up from anaesthesia, I felt dizzy and wanted to vomit, but the pain was tolerable, the pain level was like 2 out of 10. But after resting at the clinic for a night, I felt so much better. Then they accompanied me to buy medicines to help me heal faster and gave me many congees, pumpkin juice and ice bags. I went back to clinic every day to clean my wounds and stitches inside my mouth, and did laser treatment which helped the swelling to go off faster. On the 7th day after my surgeries, they removed stitches on my nose and the stitches inside my mouth were removed 14 days after surgery. The nurse was very gentle and cute, she kept saying ‘pain’ when she cut of the stitches, but honesty, I didn’t feel much pain, it was very tolerable. The night before I left for my home country, Zach even took me to have dinner together and we had great fun that night. The receptionists and Zach were so nice and friendly, they talked to me like non-stop and they felt like my new friends. And most importantly, Zach was very responsive, he answered my questions patiently and that made me feel secured after surgeries. As I mentioned, I have had my surgeries for half a year, It becomes so natural now. Especially my face, most of my friends just think I get slimmer so my face is so much smaller than before and I am more youthful looking now. As for my nose, because I used to have short nose with a short nose bridge, now I have a tall nose and defined nose tip. So my friends know I have advancement on my nose, but it is fine because they compliment my nose all the time. Surprisingly, for the new friends that haven’t seen my look before surgeries, they think I am a natural-born handsome guy haha, that’s why I am so satisfied now! I am so thankful to Dr. Cheng and Zach and all the other workers there. I told Zach I was going to share my experience with Cooki on purse forum, and he was so excited and thankful, I am sure if you guys go to Cooki, you will like him. However, the clinic is so popular among Korean and Chinese patients, so their schedule is always full, if you are interested going there, make sure you contact Zach through kakaotalk (id: cookipseng) a month before you go to Korea, or even two moths before. Zach told me that the schedule for Chinese patients were so full that most the Chinese patients have to wait for 2 months. Other foreigners can now only be arranged to schedules for Korean patients, which had to wait more than one month as well. So do tell him when you want to go and he might try to see if there’s any available date for consultation and surgery. So here’s the price he gave me for different operations: Zygoma reduction+Jawline reduction+genioplasty = 12,000,000 krw Rhinoplasty(silicone nose bridge+ear bone tissue for nose tip)=3,500,000krw These prices were what they offered me and they were cheaper than other big hospitals as I know (but not very sure), but the services and results were great so I think the prices were very reasonable. If you guys want to have surgeries other than facial contouring and nose(like eyes, breasts, lifting, lips etc.), go ask Zach on kakaotalk, maybe he is still very young, so I think you can negotiate price with him haha.

jessicacorbyn Posted August 7, 2016 Share Posted August 7, 2016 Great post! Do you have any before, or after pics? I have seen the site ^^ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
asgogoas Posted August 7, 2016 Author Share Posted August 7, 2016 As I mentioned, the post-op care was great, Zach was reponsive to any question I had which made me feel secured, they were gentle cleaning my wounds inside my mouth and nose, and they offered laser treatment every day, so the post-op care was really good even though they were so busy. To be honest, after 3 weeks, I could still tell my face was quite swollen, but a month after having the surgeries, I looked much more natural, my friends thought I gained a little bit of weight, and as the swelling went off, they thought I got slimmer and looked so much better haha. Oh! So you are actually considering having the same procedures as I did! Go contact them if you want more info. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
asgogoas Posted August 7, 2016 Author Share Posted August 7, 2016 Hm...I suggest you to contact Zach, he has some Chinese patients(who had surgeries in Cooki) before and after pics that they shared on a Chinese PS forum . Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gantz Posted August 7, 2016 Share Posted August 7, 2016 Thank you for sharing your experience! I am interested in Cooki as well! I have a few questions though I would like to ask if you don't mind 1.Did you have t-osteotomy for genioplasty or just shaving the chin? 2.For zygoma did you have the 3d or the quick procedure? 3.I think Cooki offers the option of dissolvable screws. Were you interested in having them? Did the doctor discuss this option with you? (*EDIT: I just saw that you answered to me about dissolvable screws, but if you have any more information it would be more than welcome!) 4.Did the doctor inform you about the risks of fc or did he play them down? 5.Do you notice any side effects? Sagging, nerve damage, prolonged numbness? 6.Did you consider/visit any other clinics? Thank you! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
daysuntilpretty Posted August 7, 2016 Share Posted August 7, 2016 I'm happy for your results! I hope you don't mind me asking, but I can't access their website would you be able to provide their kakao? I'd be very interested! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
asgogoas Posted August 7, 2016 Author Share Posted August 7, 2016 Oh how come!! Their kakaotalk id: cookipseng Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
asgogoas Posted August 7, 2016 Author Share Posted August 7, 2016 Sure no problem! 1. For my case, I shaved my chin to make it more defined and for genioplasty...I'm not too sure to be honest, all I know is they moved it forward and fixated it with titanium screw. 2. I had 3D for zygoma, they told me the quick one is only suitable who has very thin cheekbones (Koreans usually have thinner cheekbone) 3. I am not sure if they have dissolvable screws>< Coz from the very beginning, they told me they will use titanium screws which can be taken off half a year after surgery. And it is totally fine if I plan not to do so because titanium is bio-compatible, dentistry use titanium to operate teeth implants as well so it is 100% safe. 4. Zach, the Enhglish translator was responsible for informing me any problems i might came across after surgery, he was so informative omg, I felt like he didnt try to hide anything from me haha. But then he told me he trusted the doctor very much that no medical issue had ever happened in the clinic, so I was much relaxed 5. No, I have no sagging nor prolonged numbness. As for nerve damage, every single facial contouring operation will more or less damage some nerves, but nerves can grow back tgt and you will feel the same after they have repaired themselves. For me, all my nerves were recovered less than a month which was very surprising, and now I can open my mouth widely and laugh freely, everything is just like old days but one, my face is more handsome haha. 6. I have considered Banobagi and Braun. But my Korean friends told me not to go. Banobagi does too many botched jobs on noses and eyes, and they switched doctors during operations, especially on foreigners. As for Braun, their faical contouring is not 100% gurantee that the results are satisfying, they told me only 50% of the surgeries were satisfying, the other 50% of patients they have to do re-op again, so I was not planning to Braun as well in the end even though they are quite well-know for rhinoplasty. But it turns out that i love my nose now very much from Cooki, so I haven't regret going there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gantz Posted August 7, 2016 Share Posted August 7, 2016 Thank you for answering! It helped a lot But I don't really got what you meant about thin cheekbones. Do you mean that their bones are thinner? As in less bone thickness? Because I know that the quick push in zygoma reduction is performend only when the side zygoma is protruded, giving the face a wider look, they only break and push in the arch. So could you explain that please? Ooh I forgot to ask! Were you able to see the doctor post operation or not? Thank you thank you! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
asgogoas Posted August 7, 2016 Author Share Posted August 7, 2016 Haha right!!! Not thinner(my poor english omg), it is thickness that matters. If you have thick cheekbone, it is not safe to do quick push in zygoma reduction, it might perform dislocation over time, you'd better go to consult first and have X-ray/CT done to check if you are suitable for this procedure. And yes, I got to see the doctor for a few times for detail checkup to see if I am fine Oh! I forgot to mention, before I left, Zach, the English consultant, even gave me botox injection for free, he was really nice Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dizzypo Posted August 7, 2016 Share Posted August 7, 2016 asgogoas the way you talk and write sounds eerily like zach. Some more you saying "Because I trust my korean friends, so I didn’t consider other clinics and paid the clinic the ‘booking fee’ a month prior to my surgery date, so they gave me more discount. Haha lucky me." Do not try to tell people it is ok to put deposit! I know it is better for Cooki if people pay booking fee first but it is not better for real patients! People should not put money if they have not been to the clinic ever before! No matter how you try to phrase it, this is a way to tell people doing this is ok. It is not ok! This is just wrong. I am emotional because I had problem before where I gave deposit or booking fee call it what you want to call it and had so much problem getting the money back because the clinic tried to force me to do the surgery. In the end got it back but I was alone in a foreign country for first time it and doing surgery first time it was a bad start to the trip. Just stop the promoting it is wrong!

neways08 Posted August 7, 2016 Share Posted August 7, 2016 I agree... the surgery is very serious and it is not just a cosmetic procedure. I know that some clinics give Discount if you now make a prepayment and then you must advertise them on the forums. Do not give in to temptation and quickly pay the money at the time when you hear about discounts. You can spend less but it will not give you a guarantee of a good result. Be carefull guys .
