My Journey with Back of Head Augmentation in Korea

I found them a few months ago and contacted them and requested to see some before and after as they had very few on their Instagram and website, but unfortunately they said they couldn’t send any for patients’ privacy.They did say I could see some at my initial consultation.

Did they show you any and were there a lot of cases?

I want to know if they have a decent amount of experience with this procedure.

How much did it cost you?

During the consultation, I asked the same thing, for additional pics. So they do have experience in occipital augmentation and other types. I was quote $8k but was able to negotiate a deal since my girlfriend was also getting work done, so it's a bundle package for us. They told me each case will be different so my price might be totally different from yours. The back of my head is FLAT FLAT. lol My girlfriend doesn't think I need this surgery, but they will never understand. It's just nice to not have a FLAT head and soon, i can style my hair however I like.

Ok guys, I think I've found the best solution for us if you live in the US. After years of wanting to get the augmentation surgery, I finally pulled the trigger. I've looked into Dr Eppley in the US (way too expensive $12k-15k) and Korea (half the price $7k) as the nest best option. In a way, COVID stopped me from going to Korea; but it gave me time to discover Line Plastic Surgery in Los Angeles (same price as Korea). Just had it done yesterday, so i'll upload the results in a week or so once the band-aide comes off and the swelling goes away. Post-surgery, it looked amazing! Dr Yao performed the surgery and Im so happy with the results. I really appreciate all of the nurses that kept me comfortable, so a shoutout to them also. Reach out to consultant Eunice from Line Plastic for consultation. Tell her Mr. Nguyen had an amazing experience at Line Plastic and wanted others to have the same experience.

Hello, thank you for sharing ! I also discovered this clinic 2 months ago via this youtube video
Looking forward to see your results !
 
Are you comfortable showing the picture here? Cant wait to see your before and after! Youve made me interested in him too now please update here I'll greatly appreciate it
To some, it might not be a huge difference, but it’s no longer a FLAT head for me, so Im happy with the results. You’ll need to understand that you can only fill as much MMA as your skin allows it to stretch.

BTW… Dr Yao (performed my surgery) is a female dr at Line Plastic. The one on YouTube is another dr in the same office.

Wow I can definitely see the difference. Looks good. You seem to have a huge bruise on the side though. How did that happen?

Also could you tell us what the procedure was like, and what the doctor did etc please. Did you feel any pain?
 
I think it’s similar to a nose job… Their eyes get bruised/black eye, even though it’s a nose job. Since it’s the back of my head, I assume it bruises towards both sides of the neck.
The nurses in the operating room were really nice and always asked if I was comfortable while they setup the procedure. They provide me with some pills, hooked me up to IV, and the dr numbed my head up before surgery. Imagine going to the dentist and they numb you up before doing major work, that’s how the needle felt. They have to get underneath the skin, open up the pocket, so there were some filing motion. I was kind of sleeping in and out during the process, but that’s what I recalled.
My neck also swelled up and it was really uncomfortable to sleep the first several nights. They wrapped it up for compression right after the surgery, but I’m so glad to get rid of the stupid wrap. the compression is really annoying but totally necessary. Gotta protect your investment! I have a follow up appointment next week so they can see the healing/progress of my head. Please understand that this surgery seems pretty straight forward but know that you will need recovery time. You should take a week or longer off from work because you will look like a hot mess. Hope this helps some of you.

Amazing change! I would really appreciate your updates here. I looked for reviews of line plastic surgery and was put off by some negative reviews.. have you experienced any headaches or pressure? Have you been sleeping with your head elevated? Like can you sleep on your back and put pressure on your head?

So far no headaches, but definitely pressure from the compression with the wrap for 3 days.
I’m supposed to sleep elevated and on the side. Avoid sleeping on my back for the first several days. I believe it’s supposed to harden more over the first three days.
ive slept every which way just to get comfortable but try not to lay on my back too long. And if I did, the pillow is soft and tucked more towards the lower half of my head where surgery wasn’t done.

I thought it hardens within the first 20 minutes of application? Anyways thank you for the info
