I probably won't post about it until after it heals a bit, so I can talk about scarring etcThanks so much! Will you start a new thread? I'm also very interested in this procedure. Wonder if I can "follow" you.

Never seen anyone post about deesse before. I'm going for something more conservative.
I think the distance and scar looks great.I came across this review while searching for a lip lift in Korea. She shared her pictures and I found it very useful https://forum.purseblog.com/threads/lip-lift-review-at-girin-plastic-surgery.1062097/page-2
Sure! The cost of the surgery was about 1,700,000 won (about $1500) if I recall correctly, though I used a Babitalk promotion. They aren’t able to give a tax refund because they’re a local clinic that doesn’t market to foreign patients. The minimum amount of time to stay in Korea is 5-7 days, although 7 days would be the most ideal, to have the stitches removed. The clinic does not have an in-house translator but Dr. Lee speaks very good English. I brought my translator friend for the consult but I’ve managed well with Papago for every follow-up visit since.Hi colddudewinter! Thanks for sharing your experience, I hope your surgery is healing well. If you're comfortable would you mind sharing the cost of the surgery, the recommended recovery timeline and how you communicated with the clinic (do they have an in-house translator or does the doctor speak English well)? Thank you

Hello! Do you have an update? Can I PM you for photos?Hey everyone,
Wanted to add onto this post to share the great experience I've had (at least so far) with Dr. Lee Min Ah.
After having double jaw surgery, my upper lip curled into my mouth. So my surgeon told me I would need a lip lift for more upper teeth show and a fuller upper lip.
I searched far and wide for the best clinic that offers a lip lift, or philtrum reduction as it's called in Korea. Most importantly, I was looking for a clinic that would offer the subnasal approach to the lip lift, not the endonasal approach which often distorts the nasal anatomy irreversibly. I settled upon Lush Plastic Surgery (https://lushps1.com/), located in Apgujeong, after asking some people on KakaoTalk, going through the before and afters, and seeing that they offered complimentary scar laser for two whole years post-surgery.
I just had the surgery today, so I will update this post with updates as my stitches are removed and the scar heals over time!
How are you coping? Looking forward to pictures and testimonials like everyone else.Hey everyone,

That is called fraudulent marketing. I went to ID Hospital and had the worst experience! Out of 6 clinics this one made me we wait the longest and tried to get me to do additional surgeries that I didn't request. Then this Dr. Woo Seok Jang admitted that it was fake marketing and then continued to be rude, abrupt and arrogant. NEVER trust your face or body to a factory hospital with zero integrity about fake marketing of scarless philtrum surgery. Find a smaller clinic that doesn't lie about what they offer.have you guys heard of scar-less philtrum reduction? is this too good to be true? https://eng.idhospital.com/facial-contouring/philtrum-reduction/
I would love to hear about your results. I'm also considering going with Dr. Lee as I've just had a consult and she seems very competent and experienced. How is the scar healing too? Thanks!How are you coping? Looking forward to pictures and testimonials like everyone else.
Would you mind sharing b/a photos? I'm also interested in the procedure but worried about the scarring.Hey everyone,
