Hello..
I just contact "Lee" from Shimmian Clinic (dr. Jung). But I think the Gmail account they have has been compromised and/or hacked.... here's what I received from Shimmian Gmail account as a response from my inquiries:


I’m writing this with tears in my eyes,my fam and I came down here to London,England for a short vacation unfortunately we were mugged at the park of the hotel where we stayed,all cash,credit card and cell were stolen off us but luckily for us we still have our passports with us.

We’ve been to the embassy and the Police here but they’re not helping issues at all and our flight leaves in less than 3hrs from now but we’re having problems settling the hotel bills and the hotel manager won’t let us leave until we settle the bills.

Am freaked out at the moment.. please wire me the money ASAP.

Thanks!

I got the same message today! it's really strange. I'm leaning more towards Banobagi as their website is most professional and the pictures are really nice, have you read reviews on it. Lets talk and schedule a lot of consultations with diff clinics

Hey guys, i'm flying to Seoul this April to have liposuction but I'm interested in this korean clinic that doesn't seem to provide English interpreter.
Do you guys know by any chance who can be translator? I contacted Zoe but he/she is booked and Kara who didn't even bother to reply :(
So stressed out because this clinic really seems to specialize in body contouring

The website is thebodylineps.com I believe. I want to consult Grand and banobagi as well but this clinic seems to be the best at lipo. And their clinic seems to be big and professional.
As for calf reduction, yes they have that too. Non incisional nerve blocking. According to their eng website, their doctors are even pioneers in that field but I'm NOT sure though...
Grand does Non incisional calf reduction too so if you're interested then you should consult them both.

Still no answer on eng intepreter :( please help !

May I know why you want revision? Do you have any implant in your nose now? I think you can go to these 2 clinics and see if you like them.

Hi guys.

It has been 12 days after my op. Everything went smoothly. I am getting used to my new nose and am very satisfied with the results. Though I know that it takes 6 months for the nose to settle to the final shape, I can visualize that it will look good.

PS (Please see my previous post on who is my doc, how much it cost and what is the procedure done. Been answering that many times already.) :coolio:


Psychological and Confidence Effect:

Absolutely great! I am able to go out without a mask after 7 days once the cast was taken out. I just put on BB cream as foundation, (Using brush to apply now that I have a delicate nose :p) blusher, lipstick and eyebrow pencil. and I went shopping and eating with a vengeance. lol. Though appetite was less than normal due to the wearing effect of local anesthetic, not complaining cos I don't mind losing some weight. (Which I did... about 3 kg) :graucho:

*Tip: If you have stitches on the outside and inside of the nose, you have to be more careful in your facial expression like laughing and yawning out loud. I was watching comedy on youtube during my first few days and I made the mistake of lol-ing. Quite painful! Once stitches are removed, you can be yourself again :)

My family agreed that my nose looks natural. With a slimmer nose, it gives a visual that my overall face looks slimmer. Also with the eye bags gone, my eyes looks bigger and also makes me look younger! :yahoo:

For many years, I used to put on a smile with teeth during photos because I don't look good if I don't smile like that. Now, I can just smile demurely knowing that it look good. Oh I'm so happy! :)

Feel free to PM me should you have any questions. I am contributing back as how I have benefited from the previous generous contributors for the past years.

Cheers. :drinkup:

Hi illumi - Thanks for your update. I have undereye hollowness as well, which makes me look very tired and older. How did doctor remove your eye bags? Did he do fat injection like Teiums? Or did he do lower blepharoplasty? Do you have any scarring? I'd definitely go to Teiums if I only need dark circle removal. Unfortunately, I want to get my nose done to so I'm looking for a one-stop shopping. Does Regen does gortex implant for the bridge? Thanks, illumni!

Hello Sweetheart,

Totally understand what you mean. Quite tired of hearing people saying I look tired when I am actually not. The doc just did repositioning of my eye bag fats to the hollow area. There is no scaring. There is a stich (like a dot) where he reposition the fat was held. Once stich is removed (After 3 - 4 days), no scar at all. :D

If you want gortex for your bridge, you can request for it. But best to hear what the doc will think is best for you and hear his reasons.

I also think that it's better to do all in 1 op. Less hassle. Also quite fortunate that my doc is v good in both eyes and nose.

Personal Opinion* I prefer silicon because it's softer and it looks more natural on girls. Guys go for gortex to have the strong nose look effect. Gortex will harden like a bone after a period of time. I've heard that some people (v small %) may not be suitable for silicon because of the material and I was prepared for that during my 10 days stay in Korea. In case anything happen, doc can still change the implant. But so far, everything went well so I'm sticking with Silicon. :smile1:
