jaytea Posted January 11, 2018 Share Posted January 11, 2018 Hi Cherry Bear, I'm looking to have my eyelids done and would love it if you have any recommendations. I am just starting my research right now and everything seems to be mixed (which is totally normal). Is there a price range I should be keeping in mind? I'm going in March and feel like I have lots of time but also feel like it might not be enough considering some people have been researching some months even years.

_ava Posted January 11, 2018 Author Share Posted January 11, 2018 Thank you so much for your tips! I was expecting 8-9 million krw range and that quote was just totally unexpected. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
_ava Posted January 11, 2018 Author Share Posted January 11, 2018 I’m still debating between April 31 and GNG. I am planning to come back when it’s not peak season to have a more thorough consultation with both doctors then decide. I do not want to rush and make an impulsive decision with a nose that I’ll regret. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
_ava Posted January 11, 2018 Author Share Posted January 11, 2018 I will write about my consultation with other clinics in the next few days. My eyes are so swollen right now it’s difficult to keep them open lol Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

_ava Posted January 11, 2018 Author Share Posted January 11, 2018 View It is huge compared to marble. I know that the exterior & customer service in no way represents the surgeons skills, but I really did not like the English translator. The tone of her voice, the way she carried herself seem like she doesn’t enjoy her job and she didn’t want to be there at all. She was by far the most unattractive one of all the places that I’ve visited and she was just *****y. Instead of filling out papers by yourself, she will sit down and ask you a couple of questions. When you tell her what you want to get done, she has this judgmental look on her face like she can’t believe that’s what you want to change about yourself. It’s funny to me because with that kind of attitude, why did she choose to work for a plastic surgery clinic? Anyway, the consultant was very sweet and kind. We spent a lot of time discussing about my rhinoplasty and eyelid revision, and to her knowledge osteotomy in my case was very unnecessary. My consultation for eyes was with Dr. Lee, he is very soft spoken and towards the end he decided to speak English instead of having someone translate for him. He doesn’t really care whether I choose to do non-incision or incision for my revision, he said non-incision will unfold again and it’s not because of my eyelids, but because it’s not meant to last forever so it can happen to anyone. It won’t happen anytime soon but maybe in the next few years I will have this same problem again. I don’t remember the doctor for my nose consultation, but it’s really not worth mentioning him. He sat down with me for probably 5 minutes, touched my nose a little, and left to surgery. Told me artificial implant for bridge and ear cartilage for tip. That was it! He did not care to ask what shape or style or how high I wanted my nose to be. I felt like I was just another number and there was no way I was going to book the surgery hoping I can get him to understand what I want on the day of surgery. That’s risky. Even though their quote was very appealing, but cheap doesn’t mean good results. 5,000,000 total for eyes and nose. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cherry-bear Posted May 8, 2018 Share Posted May 8, 2018 Hi @Ava! Ooops! I haven't been checking PF since I travel quite quite a bit. I'm sorry to hear about your bad experiences at some clinics! Where did you have it done in the end? I hope you got a good price! Wow 5 million for eyes and nose at View is really really good! I am surprised that their English speaker was unfriendly! I read on some posts that people were commenting some good reviews about them? Most medium big clinics are pretty all right but ultimately I think the doctor's attitude and skills are more important. Hope you are recovering well! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sweetdreams2 Posted October 18, 2018 Share Posted October 18, 2018 I'm sorry to hear that your unpleasant experience, where did you have your surgery? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lillychu Posted October 18, 2018 Share Posted October 18, 2018 it's a bit awkward. how come people keep taking the negative reviews about VIEW and OPERA here too often? it was written in Jan.. weird. I have heard a lot of bad reviews about other clinics (i would not tell the names here but a few patients have died or fatal complications.. at a couple of clinics.. ) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hani-v Posted February 17, 2019 Share Posted February 17, 2019 Hi, do you mind sharing the results of your eyes? What is Dr Lee's full name as i saw few Dr Lee on view website. I'm considering to get my DES done at View Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
