<Consultation rounds in Seomyeon, Busan><Review of consultation rounds for revision eye surgery in Busan>
In the past, going around for consultations was just fun, but now I’m so tired and I can’t make decisions well either, lack of stamina + indecisiveness After researching online through online cafes and a community, I went for consultations at 7 places over two days
I’ll leave them in the order I visited
No. 1. Recommended minimal-incision revision surgery on only one side, 880,000 won It was the first place I went, and the consultant was so pretty and kind that I was tempted lololol The director was kind too, but looking back, nothing really strongly resonated with me The reason they recommended minimal incision on only one side was that to remove the scar tissue, both sides would need incision + ptosis correction again, and honestly they don’t recommend going back into both sides just to remove one issue 2 years free A/S Services like swelling injections can be free Overall clean and bright atmosphere
No. 2. Recommended full-incision revision surgery on both sides, 1.2 million won cash The director has a clear personal preference and says they pursue results that are pretty even if noticeable, rather than just natural Maybe because of that, they never asked why I came in, and as soon as I sat down, they said both lines were small, so they wanted to do incision on both sides + make the lines larger + set them as in-out or out-fold 2 years A/S Overall, it felt like a large neighborhood internal medicine clinic
No. 3. Full-incision revision surgery on both sides 1.98 million won, one-side full incision 1.21 million won To remove the scar tissue and improve the diagonally closed-off front part, they recommended either incising both sides or incising only the right side, which currently needs the most improvement The director and consultant tended to pick up right away on what I wanted improved, even without me specifically mentioning it The consultant was pretty and had a refreshingly straightforward personality The director was kind too, but the consultant remains more memorable So this was the only place I went back to for a second consultation, but what’s confusing is that previously the director first said we should also improve the front part that is diagonally closed off, but when I went for the second consultation, they said even with incision, the diagonally closed-off front part wouldn’t improve much... Can I interpret it on my own as meaning it will improve, but there won’t be a big change? lolㅠㅠㅠ 2 years free A/S, and overall clean and bright atmosphere
No. 4. No specific recommendation, just avoid making the line too high They said it would be good to expose the front double-eyelid line and improve the closed-off front area, but then the back part of the line would also get a bit thicker, and my eyes don’t suit a thick line So they said they couldn’t clearly pick one thing and tell me to do it So I had a mental breakdown... Even so, they said if I really wanted, I could choose the surgical method I wanted, hear the price, and go, so I asked roughly as a formality and left The director thinks it through with you and listens well, but the consultant seemed like a beginner, kept looking around, and I couldn’t really hear what she was saying She just kept repeating unimportant things
No. 5. Recommended natural adhesion on only one side, 700,000 won After checking the line a few times, they recommended natural adhesion, so when I said that a few other places had mentioned incision because of scar tissue, they said that I’ll end up doing it again as I age anyway, and unless necessary, they recommend not opening up the eyelid tissue 2 years A/S and a swelling care package provided
No. 6. Recommended full incision on both sides, 1.8 million won They recommended cutting a little more tissue at the front, removing scar tissue, and fixing the line The method was one that addressed all the parts I was concerned about, but after consulting with the consultant, I didn’t want to do it here Seems like she mistakes unkindness for firmness
No. 7. Recommended natural adhesion on both sides, 1.2 million won They told me not to do too much incision at a young age (but only later did I feel like the director seemed to have mistaken me as younger than I am) They said my eyelid skin isn’t thick, so my eyes can be fixed sufficiently with natural adhesion alone And they said they were concerned that if I did incision, my current gentle image might disappear 2 years A/S, but they said A/S is not possible for reasons of shape change and only possible if it comes undone
8 years ago, I had full-incision double-eyelid surgery - 7 years ago, I had full-incision revision surgery + ptosis correction + epicanthoplasty
