My Journey with Back of Head Augmentation in Korea

Just got done reading through all 80 pages - excellent thread. Unlike most posters here, I'm looking to get augmentation in the forehead, but this thread has been useful. Thanks for all of the encouraging stories and helpful info, and it's great to know that people are happy. I plan on visiting Korea in August to have FC done first, at which time I may consult with Dr. Song. Then maybe toward the end of the year or early next year, I'll make a subsequent visit to have the forehead done. Hopefully, it will be a quick in and out procedure, as the consultation will have been done in August.

Hi everybody,

Thank you all for posting your experiences with plagio, both mentally and about the surgery wise

Im 25 yo and Ive been suffering with plagio since my teenage years,

It is an exhastive situation where only people who have crooked heads can understand,

Im very glad to have find a community that shares this problem, cause everywhere I look, I cant find a single person who also have plagio, and never met anyone with a more severe case than mine,

Difficult to have a good relationship with my parents also, despite all the gratitude that I have for giving me a good education, food, shelter. I just look at my own face and just feel bad.

Im japanese descent and my parents use to give me a bucket haircut as a baby and child. Ive grown up and it is really frustrating to have to keep my hair long to not feel like trash

I really wish all the best for you,

You are heros just for dealing with it,

In my case, the plagio is more like a brachycephaly, which made my head larger, with bumps over my ears, and it really annoys me. But also, my right side is a bit more flatted, which make my whole face assymmetrical.

But, since nothing can be done about that, I am really thinking about doing a forehead augmentation, and maybe a top of head augmentation also. Guess, maybe it helps harmonizing my whole face and head

The back of my head is a bit flat too, but I have priorities haha, and if I fill the back also, maybe my head would become tremendously big with all the fillers

As I can see in this thread, I guess the best option for me is going with Dr Song from Jogak clinic. He seems to be the most experienced and very careful with his patients,

Also, the price plays a huge factor, since Im brazillian and the currency here just sucks.

The travel ticket for Korea is double the price than the US. But it is still a lot cheaper than going to LINE clinic, since the procedure is about $2000 more expensive, as I can see in the comments.

I intend to go by July, hope it goes well.

Hello , im planning to do this surgery next year . I've read quite a bit stuff about this surgery and it just seems too good to be true . I was curious about how this may affect someone's hair . Has anyone had any problems with hair loss in area where surgery was preformed? Cheers.
 
14 months after surgery. side profiles, still difference and assymmetry also in my front, but happy overall. confident, because i think i look good.

no hair loss, just a scar. Good luck buddy!

Can the implant be felt on the back of the head? I also plan to perform this procedure someday, on the right part of the flat occiput, from what you write, there is still asymmetry. Let me ask you one more question, in general after this procedure there is a significant improvement in the shape of the skull, is it rounder when you look from above?

It's been ~5-6 months since my surgery, I can't feel the transplant at all, my scar is also completely invisible. Probably after 2 weeks, I completely forgot that I had surgery, and even none of my family and friends noticed it when touching my head. I had a pretty severe case, and my head shape became great. The doctor managed to almost completely correct the asymmetry.
