Hey, I am momo and I am British Japanese. I am moving to Seoul soon for a new job but first I will go to Seoul in June with my friends and I will get my DES and dual canthoplasty surgery done at Ruby. My friends will go back to London by the first week of July and then I will get my surger done. I would love to share an Airbnb in gangnam. I will have to get back to London by 28th just to attend my graduation ceremony. So, I can share an Airbnb for just over a week. If yall are interested, let’s do this!!

Hi Jenny,

I’m in Sacramento so not too far in distance. I want my entire face to be corrected but that’s also depending on affordability. I’m interested in a double eyelid/ptosis correction, facial symmetry as I’ve previously had a medical double jaw surgery that left my face more asymmetrical, and a rhinoplasty with DCF/cartilage if it’s within my budget. Was considering View and Banobagi but not sure yet. What about you? What are you planning to get done and where?

Hello, I’m from the US, California specifically. Anyone planning to go in September or later considering the current COVID-19 situation?

Coming from Canada. I’m planning to go in August or September! Rhino + FC—aiming to get everything done at the same place. My top clinics are JT PS (formerly known as Item PS—Dr. Jin-Sung Kim), Uvom, and Migo.

Coming from SoCal. I'm planning to go by this fall, hopefully sooner. It's just difficult with the 2 week quarantine. As I mentioned in a diff thread - only Korean nationals can stay at Airbnb during the quarantine, which allows them to order food and such, but the rest of us have to stay at the designated hotel and no ordering whatsoever. Any tips on what we should take for the 2 week quarantine? I heard the food isn't that great. And also, what exactly is the Covid-19 testing requirement? It says on the website that it has to be done within 72 hours from the flight but how do you get tested and get the results back within 72 hours? My husband has gotten tested many times for his work and they don't always come back fast. It takes up to 4 days from what I've seen.

So many questions haha but I've been trying to look for more information on Dr. Cho Bae Jung for revision rhinoplasty. I've been "botched" in a sense from one of the big hospitals so I'm trying to look for a skilled revision surgeon who's at a smaller clinic. I'm terrified of shadow doctors - I feel like I'm a victim of this haha. Won't ever know for sure. Has anyone gotten rhinoplasty from Dr. Cho? I've contacted them via Kakao but it seems like he uses a mix of rib cartilage and bone. I want to go with non-implants so I prefer cartilage but bone is completely new to me. Sounds scary but understandable since rib cartilage can warp. Any thoughts?

I originally planned to go this month if COVID restrictions were lifted, but it looks like I have to plan to go in late 2021 and hopefully quarantining won't be mandated. If not, then I will most likely go to a surgeon in the US...

Did my research in their websites also in numerous forums. I also watch Sanly Liu YouTube to determine how much costs I'll need (unlike other youtubers, she really told us the "real" prices. Personally, I think she is overcharged but that's story for another time).

Also thinking bout going on June/July 2021. Add me on line? My line id is levi1227
