delphi373 Posted March 25, 2018 Posted March 25, 2018 I wish the photos from folks showing before and afters would be straight from the front, 3/4 and then side. Selfies are the worst in that they totally distort and you see so much of that. Also different lighting etc. really gives a different impression. I find it hard to trust any pics online unless they show real clinical before and afters.
fressiagreen Posted October 15, 2018 Posted October 15, 2018 @eurasianbeauty How about asian nose? Do you have any suggestion? Im desperately need a suggestion for my next month PS in korea. Already booked with VIP, but later on found out there is a girl who came from my country as well and felt unsatisfied with the result because the nose is bigger than before. Please help! My problem is wide alar and bulbous tip.
chinnie Posted October 15, 2018 Posted October 15, 2018 The fact is the website for the clinic needs to clearly state all of the doctors and thier training + certifications. Where they went to school and if they taught at a medical college, affiliations, also big plus if there share that. That being said, I have seen some "cosmetic surgeons" who were excellent and some board certified plastic surgeons who were terrible. But a cosmetic surgeon is only ever gonna be legally allowed to do non-invasive things even in the US so they definitely need to make the doctor's credentials clear. They need to have at least some board certification in a related area. (for example, it would be understandable for an OB to do a mini tummy tuck because they do c-sections and sometimes do the tuck anyway, dermatologists almost universally do fillers and prp now because they specialize in skin.) And the anesthetiologists board certification must be present, this is extremely important! They should be the only one touching your anesthesia and they should be there the whole time So it's a multidimensional thing right. Whatever you do make sure your doctor gives you a good impression of his/her character. It doesn't matter if they are considered the top shelf for what you want to do, if they don't treat you like you are valuable (but not in a fake way) or act pompous and like they don't care... run, run very far away.
chinnie Posted October 15, 2018 Posted October 15, 2018 That's misleading because a board certified plastic surgeon can choose not to put their name in the clinic. A clinic can hire non BS surgeons to work under them even if their name is in the clinic name. I would not go to Dr. Hong. BTW, the best way to confirm a surgeons status with the board in the US is go the the national license registry website and look them up. There's all kinda of other information there, like if they have ever has a citation or suspension and what it was for... Example:illegally prescribing opiods, malpractice, etc I can't find such a website for look up in Korea. If someone has a link please share!
