I already paid the DP to reserve the op date with Braun and would do the surgery in the middle of dec. I would do DES+FC+rhino (dr. Kim & dr. Lee) , hope everything would go smooth (so scared even now my heart is beating hard thinking about it)

How much did you pay for the deposit? I’m planning to go on December too!xD Braun is on my top list. Maybe we can exchange KakaoTalk if you don’t mind.

I was doubtful about the fact that EU has no negative review online. It is sketchy and made me feel like they were removing negative reviews. In addition, during consultation, EU wanted me to sign document stating that if I get botched, I won't post it online. Then EU was very money hungry and dishonest. They practically bullied me out of 1million won. Initially tried to bully me out of 5million won. They promised to give the money back but wanted me to come back to their clinic with my card. Seems to me like they noticed I was scared and wanted me to come back so that they can bully me out of more money. I have evidence of all of these communications. If you go to EU, be very careful. Christy kept trying to sell me more services. I chose TFD because Dr. Lee was more open and honest.

Braun is at the top of my list right now. They quoted me a good price and also doesn’t seem like a big clinic. I wanted to avoid the bigger ones because of ghost doctors. Let me know if you ended up choosing braun and/or how everything went.

If anyone has reviews for Braun (specifically Dr. Ryu) that would be helpful! I’m so close to booking with them

what are you going to Braun for? I am interested in DES for myself but it's hard to find a lot of reviews

I would not do rhino at Braun (i think there are some stories of ppl not liking the results) but for eyes was there a reason why?

Hi! I actually looked into other clinics and went with MIHO instead because they seem to work with locals more. I was going to go to braun but they recently blew up and so i heard theyre more factory like now. No other reason though haha :)

Has anyone heard anything about DA ("Dee-Ay") Plastic Surgery?

Oh boy... where do I start with them? I reached out a few months ago to have an online consult. Didn't hear back for a while despite them seeing my message on WhatsApp. I really liked how their results looked so i thought i would stick it out. I did hear back and they provided me with the info i needed including price. Whoever I spoke to wasn't as professional or invested in my consultation as I hoped either. As we know, DA is notoriously expensive but I thought since the results were great it was worth it for a reason. I sent in my deposit (4.45 mil KRW) to secure my spot. But after I did, more and more negative reviews started coming up (very crowded, busy, and impersonal). Overall the evidence was enough to cause me to rethink my surgery with them so I reached out to say I was canceling my consult and surgery with them. OMG super short with me afterward. I still haven't received the money back yet (it's been a little more than a week). Really hoping I don't have to deal with them much longer. I am now looking and likely booking with Atop who has been absolutely delightful. Keep in mind, the people behind the online consults will be with you during your surgery.... not the most trustworthy. I caution highly against them

Ghost doctors that's really scary. These are people performing plastic surgery without the right qualifications for ex nurses doing rhinoplasty or jaw surgery on patients once they are put under general anaesthesia. I'm not sure if this has been brought up here but Before considering/having surgery in Korea I think you should watch this: and read

Hi!
If you look at the beginning of this thread I think Braun was listed as a clinic to avoid.I don't know anything about them. But they do seem to market a lot on youtube which to me seem suspicious. Lots of people/youtubers/influencers V-logging surgeries with them to attract customers. These reviews can be biaised and these people might have gotten their surgeries done there for free. In exchange they might be v-logging their experiences. that's marketing.
