. Looking cute during lockdown. Please stay safe, just read a story about a Taiwanese couple living in London who caught the new covid strain although they were in lockdown and self quarantine and had no contact to anyone. It is mind boggling how and where they contracted the virus. https://www.taiwannews.com.tw/en/news/4083997Careful with Jacono. Lots of negative reviews. For that kind of money I would demand to see a minimum of 10 past patients IRL and see the results. I noticed that most of his +ve reviews on RS and google have no pics, just glowing reviews which sound like ads.
You're wrong he has several hundred patients on Insta. He has been doing this for over 20 years, I've been following him for that long, trying to save up my pennies. He lectures and written several books and put the b&a of the patients in the book as examples. Plastic Surgeons from all over the world come to learn from him and he's willing to share his techniques at conferences (unlike some others). The only other doctor who comes close is Dominic Bray in London who is just as expensive but not even close to Jacono's miracles (that's what I call them)
@Mazikeen
Thanks Mazikeen. Only had the briefest of looks but not only what you're saying is spot on but also looks like some suspicious activities as well.

Ok but please check out some patients f2f to see how the results look like, don't rely on the insta results. Many surgeons are posting fake results using photoshop and filter on insta to lure patients. Turkish clinics are notorious for this and some patients have ended up in ICU after botched surgeries. Just google Dr. Andrew Jacono reviews you'll see the negative reviews on realself with pictures.
IKR? If insta models with their limited budgets can dupe people with perfectly photoshopped videos & pics imagine what a surgeon or clinic with deep pockets can achieve?
Like you said the Golden Rule is to meet ex patients IRL over a year since they have had FL preferably 7 lol. Thanks for reminding us best to you
lmao you are so right. The -ve reviews are buried so deep you have to read through all the 400+ glowing reviews on RS to get to them.
@Transformation2021 OMG! $75,000 for a facelift! No way! I feel for the ladies who left negative reviews on realself on Jacono. Scared me off. I am leaning towards Paul Tulley in the U.K. or go to Korea when I am 60.
Yep. @seoulsister and @Mazikeen the deep plane facelift can alter one’s face dramatically and if it goes horribly wrong and makes one look like a lizard or the skin is pulled in the wrong angle, well that’s that, irreversible disaster. There is no reversing a facelift after the skin has been trimmed too much and smas layers trimmed and sutured tight. I am thinking the best results seem to be in ladies who have severe facial skin sagging with numerous wrinkles. If one does it too early, there may not be much skin and smas to tighten so this could end up making the face too windswept and unnatural aka Madonna or the surgeon may just do a token skin excision and omit the smas muscle layer, which may only last 6 months as skin, loosened and then pulled tight during surgery, tends to just stretch over time and within 6 months may look like before surgery again. Choosing the right plastic surgeon for a facelift can be a minefield. Dr Kirk at Namu, the head surgeon at ASPS, and Dr Dongman Park at Bio plastic surgery clinic seem to have good facelift results. There is a big difference between 9-12 million won ie $9-11k for a facelift in Korea vs $75,000 for a facelift in NYC vs £15,000 or $22,000 for a facelift in the U.K. Facial fat grafting for volume at 2.5 million won or $2,000 plus a top up for 1 million won or $800 is much more affordable and the option I have gone with to stay looking young in my 50s. No doubt when I hit 60, I may feel desperate for a facelift.

I clutched my imaginary pearls too when I saw the price. These NY surgeons are out of control with their prices and their results are mostly subpar. I was quoted $15,000 for rhinoplasty with silicone implant which costs $5000-$6000 in Seoul and the results in Seoul were much better. A patient of Jacono posted her FL scars and they're horrendous, it's mind boggling how he justifies the price.
@Mazikeen, wow $15k for a silicone rhino! During the off peak seasons at MVP, Dr Seo used to charge 3 mill won or less than $3k for silicone rhino! I would never fly to the US for plastic surgery. Simply cannot afford their extortionate prices. The best at suturing have to be Korean surgeons. I can’t even see my upper lip scar from the vermilion lip lift but can see my bullhorn lip lift scar done in the U.K. and needed steroid injection when the scar hypertrophied. I suspect a lot of keloid or hypertrophic scarring in Asians may be from the way British or American surgeons suture. Koreans truly are the masters when it comes to embroidery. You are making me want to fly to Korea for my smas facelift! I am waiting to find someone who does invisible facelift! Lol, ie no scars! Maybe I should also get scar revision for my periareolar and submammary visible U.K. scars in Korea when I get a facelift. I remember Dr Lee at ASPS did a good job on the 52 yo Asian American tpfer October 2018 but we never got an update a year later to see if it lasted.
