Do anyone know if you need to hire a translator for the consultation? Does Koreans in Seoul speak English? Do i need to have a translator in my everyday life so that i can communicate with the locals?

Thanks in advance.
 
Hi, I'm goin for fat grafting and acculift for my doublechin, have shortlisted these clinics Banobagi, JW, DAPS, Dream.. Perhaps you can give me advice which clinic does the best in fat grafting (prefer a more natural volume rather than dolly look)
 
Survival for how long? Lol^^ Permanently or 3 years or so? That is what I want to know:biggrin: I don't think it's permanent though..

It's not permanent. 2nd touch up will help it to make it more long lasting. It would be very good if it can last for 2 years. One thing to note is that if you lost weight, the fats will go also. That was why mine only lasted for 1 year.
 
Hi
I am a Korean and staying in Singapore.
I was very surprised that price is double or triple for foreigners.
Last month, I went to clinic in Korea and asked them but there wasn't such a foreigner price or something.
I think they just quote higher for foreigners.
Am thinking I can provide service to search famous clinics and get quotation. And also booking too.
Price probably different.
And source you get and Korean's get is different.
Because we usually search from people's experience and results review.
Pls message me if you need.
FYI, Busan is cheaper than Seoul and results will be same.
Since skills and machinery improved so it should be fine.
I have done some surgeries in Busan, but it was good.

If I have 2nd top up, It would last longer. I don't have any idea how long it would last. I also don't think that's permanent.
Consultant said I should not go on a diet for several years and I had to eat variety of nutrients for help fat be survived well. ^^;;
I just had it 4 months ago, so I will check how long fat would be survived. Haha

Thanks for your reply. I think i will go in September, October, March or April. Because i dont think it will not be busy during those months, especially since i am planning to go to JK and JW.

I had a fat grafting in this this February. When I visited the clinic, some patients were waiting for the consultation and the surgery.
Avoiding the busy season will good for you to have better treatment I think. Haha.

Most clinics hire English-speaking consultants so you don't have to hire personal translators.
If you want to buy something, you might communicate with Koreans English and body language. I also did. ^^
 
Anyone going for stomach/love handles liposuction in korea? I'm planning to visit end Aug.

Also, I heard there are whitening treatments. Any idea what types are available in korea?

Hello CurlyCat,

I've done many whitening treatment in Korea. I usually do the basic whitening injection or some people called it Beyoncé Injection. It's just an IV drip that goes into your arm. You lay down for 20 minutes while receiving the drip. Fairly simple procedure. I, personally, think it works best for people with light skin. You can see immediate result especially on your body but for face it usually takes up to 2 weeks to see anything. If you have darker skin, they recommend 10 sessions. You can do 2 sessions in a week so 10 sessions would require 5 weeks in Korea. I usually pay 50,000 won equivalent to around $50usd for each session. Hope this help!
 
Some clinics are offering stem-cell fat graft, which supposedly has a much higher survival rate. Anyone has more info about this?

Oreocream,

There are a few clinics in Korea that offer stem cell fat graft but very limited at the moment. I believe Fresh being one of them. But the price for stem cell fat graft is pretty high though. Maybe Mellisa can help answer our question since she went to Fresh. Thank you in advance, Mellisa!

I didn't ask the price but Fresh does fat grafting with stem cells. (I just had fat grafting with PRP)
I saw the explaining of stem cells on their website. ^^
