That's what I'm doing also but it is just essentially hard to decide even with a well know doctor from bad reviews on this forum. Some say that so and so doctor is good and some say that same doctor messed up. So it's just very hard for me to decide. x.

Beauty is subjective as well. Your ideal of beauty may not be the same as mine, and vice versa. Every surgeon has his/ her style. I have friends who kept pushing me towards a specific surgeon but I didn't like his method and style. You just have to meet with each surgeon yourself to determine who will be a better fit for you. Surprisingly, some people even come to find later that they end up choosing the clinic/surgeon they were least interested in or didn't have high hopes for... only after having met the actual surgeon themselves. You never know. My top 5 list is ever changing... lol... and still changing. It's hard, I know. Hang in there and good luck!

Has anyone tried to do surgeries at two different clinics before ? Is it viable ? I am thinking of having facial contouring surgery at banobagi w dr oh and rhinoplasty at april31. Is it advisable to do this ?

Since both surgeries involve your face, recovery is going to be really tough.

I am planning to have two surgeries at separate clinics as well. BA at TLPS and rhinoplasty at either Dream, April31 or JW and will be staying in Korea for 16 days. Even though the surgeries I am interested in are on different parts of the body, I've been told that recovery is going to be tough.

I feel like TLPS focuses on BA and I like Dr. Yim's experience. I also like how the clinic is prepared for emergencies. Dream, April 31 and JW are well known for their rhinoplasty surgeons. I don't want to just get both surgeries done at the same clinic for the sake of convenience. I'm traveling half way around the world for surgeries that are offered in the US so I can have the best results for each.

I'm planning to have BA first, then wait 4-5 days before having rhinoplasty. I've heard that the first 3 days are the worst for soreness. That should leave me with enough time to recover from rhinoplasty before traveling home. Just in case, I have enough flexibility at my work to stay an extra week in Korea for recovery if I feel like I need it.

Be safe, cosmetic surgery is still surgery.

Have there been any recent reviews of Wannabe clinic? The thread for them expired, so I couldn't post in it. I'm looking to get eye bag fat removal and rhinoplasty (fixing wide dorsum and alarplasty).

Any good facial contour clinics with reliable experience doctors? I heard doctor Kim from TL clinic is good, but heard some good and bad reviews. I also heard doctor oh from Banobagi is also good. Anymore good facial contour clinics out there? I am a male looking for cheek reduction and jaw reduction to have done.

Oh yes haha sorry for the typo on Kwon. Phone autocorrected

I already had my eyelid surgery with Dr kwon. Currently at day 58 and I quite like the results so far.

I am NOT a promoter of teuim btw Just that I really almost got into wrong hands (paid a 700 deposit with Wonjin) but a forumner here was kind enough to warn me against it. And she also sent me pics of her botched result. The reason I'm still here is to do the same and help others.

Hi everyone,
I'm going to Korea on 11/8th for nose, eyes and jawline or either facial contouring. Going to stay there till 12/24th since jawline surgery requires longer recovery and care.
I haven't decided on which clinic I'll go with. But thinking about Braun or Hankuk. I didn't find any websites on Hankuk but friend of mine told me that the surgeon was one of the first surgeons who performed jawline reduction surgery. I'll try to post his business card.
About Braun my cousin had her nose job (only bridge) and she looks great. I heard Braun doesn't like to perform surgery on the nose tip. They mostly always end up adding bridge only. Idk why though?
They used to have their website in English and Korean but now it's only Korean language.
Any suggestions on which clinic I should check out?
I'll update you guys with before and after pic after my surgery. You can inbox me if you prefer.
Thank you :)

Ladies and gents, how do you all track the different hospitals/clinics you are all interested in? Do you track your pros/cons, prices, doctor names, misc information on an excel spreadsheet? Does anyone have a similar template like this that they can share? I tried making my own but I'm not very good at spreadsheets so I wanted your advice. Thank you!

If you are looking for a clinic with a perfect track record you will not find it.

Don't focus too much on the reviews. Instead, look at the various doctor's methodology for the procedues you want and their experience with it.

Then research as much as you can about the particular surgical methodology - benefits, downsides, potential complications etc so you know what you are in for.

Thanks HJ88 I am new to this forum,but I agree.. For some reasons, these few days I tried booking appt by calling in to the clinics, some clinics are Super packed this December.

By the way, I was told by an agent, u guys should know who I meant, that this year TLPS has accidents, I get a good quote from Regina, both 3D zygoma & jaw reduction for 8.8 million, with Dr Kim, can I trust that agent, I thought TLPS is good? He is pushing Banobagi though. Anyway, if I do both 3D zygoma and jaw reduction, can I go back to work after 19 days?

Please assist to share since u had experiences with TLPS.
