Hi everyone! 
In February I had my surgery with DA. It is one month post-op now and I want to share my before & after results. I hope this sharing would help more people. All the comments are true from heart, it is what I experienced and I did not get paid for any of my words.
I had surgery for eyes, nose, face fat graft and breasts augmentation.
My surgeon for eyes is Dr. Jang. She is an amazing woman who is super confident in what she does. I was a bit startled at first because she's very straightforward (since we talked directly in English), but that actually makes me like her because that means she exactly knows what is best for me (even I had doubt at that time) and she is confident in her profession sense. She gave some clear analysis of my features and procedure suggestions. Before I was indecisive on whether I really need surgery for my eyes, after the consultation I feel I can trust her and it will turn out great with Dr. Jang's hands so I gave it a go
During the surgery she was really calm and tried to comfort me even I was shivering like crazy at first (I was cold and anxious). I feel bad for her to have a patient like me 
but anyhow it went successful and I love how my eyes look now ♥
Dr. Choi (Dr. Choi Hang Seok) did my revision rhinoplasty and fat graft. There are many complications with my nose and I'm so glad Dr. Choi fixed them all for me! He was very patient to understand what kind of nose I want and try his best to create the shape for me. Before my nose was a bit slanted, nose tip tilted to one side and protruding, my septum is deviated which made me suffer from nose block for looong time and I had to rely on nasal spray everyday when it gets really bad. Now I finally have a nose that both functions well and looks pretty! The shape of my nose tip is not finalized as I can see it's improving everyday. It's still a bit round looking from the front. It will take more time to heal
I also love the fat grafting results! The swelling kinda settle down now. Only when I look at my old pics I realized how tired I used to look lol It even helps to clear my uneven fat under my eyes. When I smile I used to have a weird fat crease undereye and now it's all smooth out ! That's unexpected and I'm happy enough just because of this hahaha
I had Dr. Koo for my breasts augmentation. My translator Emily told me he is really good at it and now I can tell he really does! I told Dr what kind of image and size I wanted to achieve, he decided the type of implant, the size and surgical method for me. He has a happy and relaxing personality which makes the consultation extra easy and smooth. There are lots of considerations in a breasts surgery and we really need to find the doctor that we feel comfortable with and trusted. I'm grateful that I've found him! I cannot be more satisfied with my results, it looks more and more natural and softer day after day. (The picture was taken one week ago and there's more improvement) I have textured round implants and I didn't know even round implants can have such a natural look! I've learnt it depends on the body, ( tear drop implants = natural ) is not definite. So even two people both uses tear drop implants, they could have different results! There are so much knowledge in this, so after all we have to trust our doctors' suggestions and their aesthetic sense.
Regarding pain, I experienced ZERO pain from all 3 surgeries and recovery (except the few needle pinching for injection at first.. but that shouldn't be count as pain?). I took medications as instructed and tried to go out for short walk everyday instead of laying down. It is better for deswelling Regular eating and sleeping also promote recovery. Tho first few nights were not very pleasant but that's how we went through!
The day before my surgery, I had a skin laser treatment for cleansing the pores. It was refreshing and there was a cute little bear to hug during the laser, that's superrr cute! ♥ After my surgery, I revisited the clinic 3 times for wound cleansing & stitches removal and received deswelling treatment for 2 times. They can provide more treatment however I have to fly back on my 11th day post-op. Emily has been extremely helpful throughout the whole process, she is so sweet and speaks very fluent English. We keep in touch even after surgery and she'd reply my msg even outside her working time, I feel like she did too much extra for me
I have endless thanks for every staff and doctors I met in DA. It is the only clinic I went for consultation as I purely follow my gut feeling after research online, plus I have limited time in Seoul. So I just go for where I believe would make me safe, comfortable and suit my aesthetic taste
We all have different priorities and values in choosing a PS clinic/hospital. After all there is no 'best' ones because one best for her may not be best for me. It's more about trust, communication and research research research. It is good to know more about the surgery procedures/ possible complications that might happen so to build up a bridge between you and your doctor. Because plastic surgery isn't all about being pretty, there are also limitations/ health considerations. It'd be nice to be more knowledgeable on this so to build up more understanding, also to protect our own interests too. Anyways, I'm happy that I have found the Best for myself! And I wish all of you can find yours too

I used to have both tonsillitis and sinusitis, when my tonsil was swollen it'd block my nasal. It became a vicious cycle and the situation never end. Since my left nasal passage was smaller due to my deviated septum, it was easily blocked (with blood when it was serious) and I could not breathe through the left nostril day and night, so i basically carry my nasal spray wherever I go 
I had incision on my breast crease. I did not do it at my armpit since it's easier for doctor to insert through the inframammary fold, that means it'd be safer and easier for me too. Also I do a lot of exercises involving my arm and shoulders so I'd like to minimise the harm on those parts.
I do often get really bad sinusitis after colds. Hoping I can see an ENT in my home country soon and find out the cause haha.
