I’m a plastic surgery newbie and looking for recommendations on who to consult for a face lift in Korea in about 2 weeks (just initial consultations, not the surgery since I’m only there a few weeks with family). I had heard of Dr. Jo Yong Woo of Dreams, but he is no longer listed on their website and I can’t find where he went. It seems many do facelifts, and the information is confusing and overwhelming, yet still feels incomplete. I’m from the US but Korean in ethnicity. I don’t speak Korean fluently, in my late 40s with younger kids, and looking for a doc with excellent education/credentials/skill (aren’t we all?) so I can get good results for my flabby jowls and neckline in a big round face, and get on with my life :smile:.
I realized a surgeon can be good, but have his own niche. I’m looking at VIP, JK, and JW, and maybe Dream. Any thoughts or other recommendations?

And he is supposed to be at JW (based on pskorea) ? But looking at jw site, there is no Dr Woo.
The FC surgeon there is Dr Seung Jong Lee.
I hope you find him and please DM me.

Hi Hautelady,
Koreans often put the last name first, so I thought it was Dr. Jo (also I think I once saw it as Cho), but perhaps it is Dr. Woo . I wonder if he had a noncompete clause in his contract so that after he left, he is not allowed to practice within a certain radius of Dreams facilities for a certain time period. That’s fairly common in the US. Let’s keep each other posted and hopefully someone here knows something.
Anyone else have a great experience with their facelift in Korea? I’m leaving this Sunday. I can post again on what I find there :smile:.

Hi @Springmorning, add Dr Lee of ASPS to your list. He did a facelift of one of the pf members and I saw her after and wow she looks 20s and is 40.

Thank you Miss Orange! I will check that out.
I’m in Korea now and had one consult with Dr. Kang at JW who is their anti aging specialist. I liked his calm but friendly demeanor as well as Emily the translator. They recommended a face/necklift and endoscopic forehead lift for about 20,000 krw. But immediately offered discounts including the 10% tax at the clinic which apparently is better than the 6-7% at the airport, and another 10% for multiple procedures, so $16281 at the end. I’m hoping that’s a good number because I did like them. I’ll keep you posted if I see any others :smile:.

Nice but can't compare with my poster girl. I have posted her before elsewhere on TPF. Yes Grand is blacklisted from a death over 5 years ago but I believe they must have cleaned up their act as they are still in business. This FL was done 2017. So freaking amazing from someone who looks like they have had a stroke to this young girl.Grand FACELIFT off the planet.jpg

Shocking! Even though the after photos she's wearing makeup and her skin is smoothed over you can still tell what a change. Only thing is her nose looks really unnatural. Almost like Micheal Jackson 1986.

I don't mind her nose. Hell if I can go from the before to this after, I will take it in a heartbeat!
Now this is from Beauty Line. If I was this woman's husband it will be winner, winner chicken dinner. He would feel like he's traded in his halmeoni (granny) for a new babe. The rest of Beauty Line's thread lifts are just so-so but this one is fabulous. I believe she had fat grafting etc too.Beauty Line threadlift, fat grafting.jpg
