Anyone going to south korea for plastic surgery 2019?

Following up on my post lipo surgery review. I can actually walk the very next day and felt that the surgery is very well done ! I Managed to have some shopping time with my travelling buddy the next day at myeongdong without much difficulty and we walked around like 5 hours. I could eat normally as well, not much discomfort . I had custom made compression garments the day of the surgery which I was pretty impressed as the lady made measurements of the different parts of the thighs . Not garments where they are already ready made. On the 3rd day , I had my first post treatment, my bandages were removed and my stitches were santitised and cleaned properly before I change into the compression garments I’ve custom made. I was surprised there were no messy or bloody dressings and bruises were very minimal. Overall I’m very satisfied. I’m really looking forward to the results 2 months later after I’m totally off the compression garments !
 
Hi All! I will be in Gangnam from 5/20-28. I've been putting together a list of clinics for nose revision (silicon bridge, cartilage tip, and alar reduction). The average quotation I've gotten has been around 9900000 KRW. Seems like that would be the case no matter where I got a consult since I'm a foreigner.

It seems like common practice for clinics to 'bargain' the procedure, which to me kind of raises a few questions. It makes me question the skills of the clinic if they're willing to drop 30% of the price after some haggling. Banobagi quoted me a range between 6-9900000 KRW depending on the consult. They even mentioned in the email they would quote me a price after F2F and then I can haggle.

GNG gave me this quotation:
Alar reduction is 1million KRW and that would be added on to the initial price.
The initial prices are the following: Silicon: 5.5m KRW, Donated Cartilage 6.5m KRW, Rib Cartilage 12m KRW. I took them off my list because their quote already set the amount over 12mKRW and those were just initial prices.

JK gave me a more straightforward estimate of 9900000 KRW and also a breakdown of what the surgery and post-op package would cover. They seem pretty confident in their skills in that they don't bargain or negotiate the prices. Either you want the procedure or not and the price adjusts according to what you do or don't get done. I liked this but when I tried to look for reviews of ANYONE who had procedures done there I did not find much online. How could there be so little reviews for such a renowned clinic?

Has anyone been to Seoul for revision rhino and can recommend any other clinics for me to add to my consult list? I'm also considering Dream. Still waiting on an online consult reply from them.
I heard item and bk hospital are good in nose surgeries. Planning to do my 3rd revision as well. Item quoted me 5.5mil krw and Bk quoted $6k usd. Both hospitals I went with my Korean bff, and kind got local prices the 3 procedures you mentioned
 
Hey guys,
I'm Korean (but I dont live in Korea so I dont know anything about it) and I'm planning to be in Korea from may 30th to June 3rd around gangnam and get some plastic surgery done. Im looking for someone to go explore together and eat good food. I speak good Korean but dont expect me to know everything lol but I could probably help you a lot on plastic surgery places since I've done quite a bit of research on the Korean plastic surgery review app. Do let me know your kakaotalk.
