My Journey with Back of Head Augmentation in Korea

I went to Jogak in Seoul two weeks ago to go through the surgery and the results are satisfying. Here are some before and after pictures. Everything went smooth and the Mr. Song was very friendly and professional.

The only issue that occurred to me was that I am claustrophobic, and can have a hard time if my body is under pressure or I am in small rooms. This will lead to minor panic attacks in worst cases. On the surgery bed, layers will be put on your head which can make you feel trapped if you are too claustrophobic. The solution was general anaesthesia in my case which went good.

After pictures were shot 2 days after surgery (right after the bandages were taken off).

Hey everyone. I posted these pictures in 2018, and many have been reaching out do my DM on how it holds on after nearly 3 years.

Everything is great, no issues at all.

So it still feels solid

So do you think the bone cement will permanently hold up and stay in place
 
Hey, glad to see this page still going. This procedure is still heavy on my mind. I need to get it done ASAP. Those of you who know, know what I am talking about lol. Its torture feeling self conscious all the time and having to manipulate hairstyles, just to make your head appear normal to everyone else.

Glad to see some of you from 2 years ago back on this page, to confirm they are still okay and results are still in tact etc.

Why does this page however keep saying "page not found" or is it just me?

It’s definetly a horrible feeling and I hoping to get mine fixed as soon as I have the money saved. Be glad you still have hair, my hair is so far gone I have to shave it and and I have a small dent in the back of my head from a childhood accident to go along with the flat back of my head.

Hello,

I was filled with hope when i found this topic. I’m planning to reach Dr Song and hopefully book a surgery. But seems like JOGAK website is down. Can anyone open the website?

Since it’s down, I need email addresses of dr song or jogak. Can anyone provide it?

Thanks in advance.

Hi everyone,
I have been following this thread for some time now as I am interested in the same procedure but have some concerns. My previous account was marked as spam for some reason so my post never went through but wanted to let everyone know there is a doctor in Los Angeles that does this procedure using PMMA (bone cement) and he charges about the same as the doctor in Korea.

is it Dr. Hsu? I have been trying to find patient reviews of his work but the before/after pictures on instagram look very good. Maybe someone here has gone to him.

Yes! Dr. Hsu at Line plastic surgery in Koreatown. I’ve been following his work on social media but there aren’t a lot of before & after photos out there.

Guys , please help!
First of all , am glad for all of you who have had successful surgeries.
I have seen the before and after pics some guys posted here. And please me, none of you is half as bad as my head shape.
I have the weirdest looking flat head and worst, and also an uncommonly large head. Worse yet, I started to lose my hair lately.
I hopped on finasteride to stop the hair loss because I am okay as long as hair is covering my head.The problem is, fin gave me sides :'( horrible one, psychological. It was my only hope.
Now my only option is to do the head augmentation operation.
My questions to those of you who've had the the operation done are as follow:
How much money did the surgery cost in total? flights, hotel.... everything? and do you think Dr Song will be able to fix my head?

Lol mine is just as bad but from the back side its completely flat. The surgery in korea from JOGAK clinic has been said to be around 6k to 7k usd and hotels/airbnb rates can vary. Look this up online, same for the flights.

Also try emailing him on the email posted above with pictures maybe he will respond
