I’m envisioning going to Seoul early 2022 for SMAS facelift, DES revision, third rhinoplasty/revision, and full face fat grafting.
I want this to be my last round of major surgeries as I struggle with body dysmorphia and self-esteem and tired of the perfectionism cycle.

The clinics on my list are:
Yuno Clinic (http://yunoprs.com/m/)
The Seroi Clinic (http://www.theseroi.co.kr)
Very Good Clinic (http://vgprs.com/m/)
Grida Clinic (http://www.gridaprs.com)
Cinderella Clinic (http://cindyclinic.com/m/)
The Door Clinic (http://thedoorps.com)
DA Clinic (https://www.daprs.com)

They’re all in the same area in Gangnam. I’ve reached out to all of them via KakaoTalk for quotes which I will reply with when received. I’m only familiar with DA Clinic as I’ve had facial contouring and fat grafting done there in 2016, but they are not my first pick due to quoting me high prices and previous bad experience when coming out of their general anesthesia (was breathing out weird fume and nauseous right after my FC op.)
For the other clinics I’ve listed, if anyone has any experience there, please share your experience!
I plan on walking into each clinic to ask if they have English translators with my minimal Korean if they don’t respond.

Other than the GA being terrible, did the FC results turned out well?

(I'm looking to get zygoma reduction and DA is my first choice right now)
 
i saw if you are fully vaccinated quarantine is exempted it is true ?
I don’t really understand

People who got the vaccine shots in Korea can have monitoring instead of quarantine, or you got the 1st dose in Korea while the 2nd dose was in the U.S but the U.S dose has to be registered in the Korean health care system.

People already vaccinated outside of Korea and is entering into Korea must be quarantined unless you have an exemption (attending funeral or visit immediate family, business/academic/public matters)

More Info From Embassy

Edit: I'm basing this info off on U.S citizens going to Korea, so please look up the travel requirements for your location in case it's vastly different.

I saw you can choose Airbnb facility, border house....instead of gouvernement facility if you stay more than 90 days. I will wait...again because pay almost 1500$ Is really Exaggerated from them :hrmm:

Is the facelift because of FC? I’m thinking of doing zygoma reduction and mini v-line (still deciding where, but EU dental is my top choice right now) but I’m wondering about sagging issues. I’m not entirely against a facelift but I’m pretty young.

This only applies to certain people. e.g. you need to have family in Korea, or you have to prove that you are going there for business purposes.

If you are concerned about the prices, I think there are some clinics that will reimburse you for the entire quarantine fees. Alternatively, you can use this to negotiate with the clinics to get better discounts! Some clinics are also willing to give you lower price if it's paid in cash instead of credit card.
 
Hi everyone! I’m from the UK and I’m flying out to Seoul on the 1st October and my surgery date is the 19th October. I’ll be having non incisional DES surgery with ptosis correction, rhinoplasty, facial/neck liposuction.
I was wondering if anyone else is here in Seoul at that time and would like to meet up? My Kakao ID is clairewilkesss
