maybe because its not a well known clinic?....ppl tends to go to a well known place by thinking well known place=good as many ppl go there so it must be good( i think...i used to think that way too.. but not anymore as i found in the hard way from my experiance...)

In my own experience, whether the clinic is well known or not doesnt matter - it entirely depends on the doctor. I went to Teuim and had revision surgery by Kwon Bong Sik - He is supposed to be the best eye surgeon in Korea - like an eye specialist - but the result was terrible - I have photos on my site you can dm me for the link. He charged me $6000 USD for the revision and did some experimental surgery on my eye and made a huge mistake, wanted me to go under anesthesia to correct it a week later. He completely ignored what I asked for and did what he wanted to do but he had no aesthetic judgement, didnt use a translator, couldn't tell left from right (in English). He is a really terrible eye doctor worst then others who are not even specialist. Frankly if you are not Korean you should not go to Korea for surgery because they use foreigners to experiment and practice cos foreigners do not have legal protection. Nor will they remain in Korea for bad result to be seen locally to affect the Doctor's reputation. This is why I started a website to publish all the doctor who did bad surgeries on me. I think it is really important to educate people so they don't go to bad doctors and ruined their lives. In many cases looks is part of people's career - these bad Korean doctors (most of them) ruin people's lives. They ruined mine

PS Grand Plastic Surgery is known in the Korean plastic surgery circle as having terrible reputation. Everybody in Korea knows this. And they have an in house settlement team to do refund if you post a bad review about them, they will give your money back if you delete the reviews. Imagine having a whole TEAM for settlement. How bad do you have to be???

Personally I don't recommend doing one stop shop surgeries. Eyes and nose are very tricky to do. Takes expert skill and workmanship. Unlike liposuction or breast lift, eyes and nose are exact science. It's hard to find a doctor who is good at both. for eyes i recommend Dr kwon bong sik of Teuim clinic in Gangnam.

Do Not Go to Kwon Bong Sik Teuim. He is terrible and does experimental surgery on foreigners. I got terrible result.

Hi @alice lee so sorry to hear this! Could you share a link to your website please, if you don't mind? Otherwise you could DM me the website too if you are not too comfortable with sharing them here. I am planning to go to SK for my surgery. Thank you very much for sharing!

Finally, today is the post 1 month after my nose revision and fat grafting, and post 5 weeks after my face contouring surgeries.

I did my face contouring (wide cheek bone reduction, V line, chin shifting slightly backward) on 17 April. I did my nose revision (replaced the silicon and using ear cartilage to create the nose tip) and fat grating on 23 April.

I went to White Medical Group with my PS buddy Piyochi.

Originally White is a dental Clinic. They expanded into full pledge plastic surgery clinic this year January. They occupied 3 levels of the building - level 1, 2 & 4. They just shifted from level 4 to level 1.

Professor Lee is the Oral and Maxillofacial Specialist.

Dr Choi is the PS surgeon. Dr Choi is the expert in Fat Grafting. He would harvest fresh fats each time and inject into 3 layers of skin as compare to other doctors who freeze the fats and inject the fats into 1 layer only.

I took a photo with both Professor Lee (wearing green uniform) and Dr Choi (wearing white uniform)

Yuki is our English Manger. She is half Japanese and half Korean, she speaks fluent English. She is a super sweet and nice person.

White is not well known to international patients, however they are well known in the Korean celebrities circle. They are well known to do 2 jaws. One of the Korean drama queen, Eun-Kyung Shin did her 2 jaws @ White too.

My PS Buddy had written a very detailed review on our consultations with both White and Able clinics, on our surgeries, on our healing camp experiences, and also our recovery/healing period in Seoul, so I shall not bore you with the same details. Her review is in the following link:
http://forum.purseblog.com/plastic-surgery-and-cosmetic-procedures/my-april-ps-journey-867449.html

I have been very active in Chinese Forum recently (sorry Purse Forum) and had posted my post surgeries reviews and photo. To be honest, I wasnt as active in purse forum as before. Then one of the Chinese forum members reminded me to post in Purse Forum.

Then I remember that I had gained so much knowledge and help from purse members who went to Korea for PS. And I have vowed to give back to this wonderful forum which has helped me to fulfill my final PS journey.


Thank you Riko. Without you, I probably ended up in a blacklisted clinic. And thank you for being such a dear real friend to me even though we havent met in person yet.


Thank you Daytona. Thank you for your English translated blacklisted clinic list. You are my Angel.


Thank you Piyochi. I love You, my PS Buddy. She has been patient with me even though on few occasions when I flared my temper. And she has been such a great help to made all the lodging and consultation arrangement. I love you again, Chichi


Thank you Rina who introduced Piyochi to me.


Sorry to sound like an Oscar thanking speech but those above words are from the bottom of my heart as these members had been the greatest blessings in my PS journey. So my dear fellow members trust in the Lord that you will also find true friendship in this forum.

Hello,

I was wondering how did you find White Medical Group? I tried looking for their website to see B/A photos, but I couldn't find any. if you don't mind sharing the link to their website, that would be great. Also, how did you communicate with them, was it thru kkt?
