shumun28 Posted March 13, 2017 Posted March 13, 2017 Hey ! Have you done your surgery in GNG ? Can't wait to see your result ? Mind to show please ? I'm planing to GNG as well
brokennose5000 Posted March 13, 2017 Posted March 13, 2017 Hey, I'm still waiting to hear back from Hazel after an initial email. I've sent a follow up email a few days ago but seems like she's not replying. Anyone else have trouble with emails? Would I be better using Kakao or something like that?
solarbeam Posted March 14, 2017 Posted March 14, 2017 She's very responsive on Kakao. But keep in mind that she's the only English consultant on social media and GNG has been getting a lot of attention from foreigners lately so the response rate has apparently been slow
carmenkxs Posted March 14, 2017 Posted March 14, 2017 H Sorry I didn't receive a notification when you replied to my post. Literally just saw your questions. About why I hired a translator, many clinics in Korea don't offer English translation service and I did all my consultations after arriving in Korea. My translator also provided me with directions/recommendation of restaurants/haircut instructions etc and made my trip a lot more comfortable. With regards to GNG, I believe there is only one English translator (Hazel) and she was mostly not present when I was there. I only saw her thrice; in the operation room, post op, when I was given my tax refund documents. I'm sure if u made prior arrangements they would try to make sure she's there for all your appointments. Do try and get in touch with her personally before your appointments/post op care to make sure she knows you're coming so you're not left struggling with the Korean speaking staff. Hazel was given the wrong date by the staff for my final post op appointment so she had to rush out my tax refund documents and panicked a little haha. Airport pickup seems like a nice perk Just make sure you're not getting charged a premium for the service as it is pretty easy to get to Seoul from the airports and GNG is literally 1-2mins away from a train station. Good luck! April is a good time since school/university would have started for them and the clinic wouldn't be filled students.
carmenkxs Posted March 14, 2017 Posted March 14, 2017 Hi I'm 3 weeks post op and my tip swelling hasn't completely gone down. I have very thick nasal skin so Dr Hong did tell me that my swelling would take longer to subside. Do PM me in a few weeks and I'll be happy to share my photos with you. Just keep in mind that my requests (if you read my initial posts carefully) was not for a "Beautiful Korean" look that I believe many people love. Only minor changes to the nose tip and columnella have been made.
heimcha-j Posted March 14, 2017 Posted March 14, 2017 Thanks for the update! I look forward to your review! Yeah, I haven't had much trouble with communication. she has been pretty prompt with her replys on messenger apps, not sure about email since I just stuck to messenger. I was actually considering to go through an agency too, but I figured I would contact them directly cause I feel like its more possible to bargain (hopefully) with out the connection of an agency. I pushed my plans a month over though cause I found cheaper tickets >< Anyone else planning to go in May? I'm pretty content on GNG
brokennose5000 Posted March 15, 2017 Posted March 15, 2017 Thanks for the advice. I sent her a message on LINE and she was very quick to reply. Very helpful too!
p-joann14 Posted March 16, 2017 Posted March 16, 2017 Who would yall choose between Dr. Son, Dr. Seong, and Dr. Hong? They have five different rhinoplasty specialist, but those three seem to be the best. Who do you guys think ?
jacobjarred30 Posted March 16, 2017 Posted March 16, 2017 This isan excellent question! Who is the best, I might be going here for rhinoplasty and genioplasty
jacobjarred30 Posted March 17, 2017 Posted March 17, 2017 Is anyone nervous about having an implant in their nose?
taintedtaint Posted March 17, 2017 Posted March 17, 2017 Yep. It's scary! I had it done on Wednesday though, and I don't feel like there's anything foreign in my face. Just feels normal.
naturallook Posted March 18, 2017 Posted March 18, 2017 I also am interested in hearing feedback about individual rhino specialist! Is there one that is better for upturn/short nose?
summerlux Posted March 18, 2017 Posted March 18, 2017 Congrats! What type of silicon implant did you go with?
taintedtaint Posted March 18, 2017 Posted March 18, 2017 Thanks. I did a super soft silicone implant.
jacobjarred30 Posted March 18, 2017 Posted March 18, 2017 Thats great! Did you have your surgery at GNG?
