I am a man in my mid-20s.
Director ㅅㅅㅂ at ㅁㅅㄹㅇ Plastic Surgery near Apgujeong Station.
The director has a trustworthy style.. As you receive the consultation, you definitely start to trust him.
Private clinic
I did not get the feeling that they were trying to end the consultation quickly or anything like that lol He dislikes being interrupted in the middle, but he gives you time to ask questions later, so if you have anything to ask, you can ask then lol The consultation was reasonably professional and trustworthy.. But it was a little scary to ask questions lololol
He specializes only in eye surgery.. He only does incision procedures.. He somewhat pushes his own surgical style, a bit like he already has the answer decided. (The website says he only performs 2 surgeries a day.)
Consultation order: director -> consultation manager (no consultation fee)
Kindness: I did not get the feeling that either the director or the consultation manager was kind.
On the 1st and 16th of every month, they take consultation appointments for 3 to 4 weeks later.
Price: Incisional ptosis correction only was 3.9 million won lololol (At other clinics, for this price you could get ptosis correction + under-eye fat repositioning + under-eye fat grafting.. Among all the clinics I have visited so far, this was the most expensive.)
This director only does surgery by incision, yep.
Waiting time: 10 minutes
Before the consultation, set your phone to vibrate..
As soon as I came in, he asked why my eyes protruded so much and whether I had a thyroid problem lololol, and he started touching my neck lolololol (Of course I do not have anything like that lolololol)
He explains what your eye condition is, what the problem with your eyes is, what surgery he will do, what surgery you should not do, and so on.. But he really hates it if you interrupt or ask questions while he is explaining, so if you have questions, there is question time later, so ask then lololol
The atmosphere during the consultation was so intense that I made a little joke, and he laughed lolololol
Anyway, my eyes have thin skin and are difficult to operate on.. (I was going to ask why he insists on incision if the skin is thin, but I could not ask ㅜㅜ)
My eyes are extremely asymmetrical..
Because the opening strength on the left side is weak, I open my right eye wide, and he said the surgery would focus on matching that.. He explained while drawing a picture.. He said that if surgery is done blindly without focusing on that, the asymmetry will become worse.
He said he only does incisions no matter what.. If you want non-incisional buried sutures, go to another clinic..
Do not do canthoplasty.. You will become a monster.. When I asked what about posterior canthoplasty, he said do it if you want to become a monster lololol If I really wanted to do it, he told me to go to this or that plastic surgery clinic.. lol He said if I went to those clinics I would become a monster and absolutely should not go, and he started naming actual clinics. There were some really famous, large clinics too lolololol. But I wondered, is it okay to say this? lolololololol Anyway, he was seriously speaking for real.. The doctor himself is very serious and quite honest lololol
He said he would make a double eyelid that is barely visible.
If I do under-eye fat repositioning, I will become a monster.. So far I have visited 5 clinics for eye consultations, and all but one recommended under-eye fat repositioning, but he did not recommend it.. ㅜㅜ So I am really conflicted.. ha... ㅜㅜㅜ (This is why you have to visit many clinics.. Everyone says different things.. yep, everyone, make sure to visit lots of clinics!!) He roughly said that what is under my eyes is not fat, but because my eyes protrude, it looks like fat.. His opinion is the complete opposite of the clinic I put in my final shortlist, so I am honestly so, so conflicted...(Director ㅂㅇㅎ at ㅇㅇㅂ Plastic Surgery)
Anyway, the doctor has very strong opinions and strong convictions.. I got the feeling that he is very conservative about surgery.. He only does surgeries that are truly necessary and tells you not to do things that seem unlikely to work.. Looking at reviews, they said he sends away people who absolutely are not suitable lololol
There were many reviews saying he is very unfriendly.. I understood why people say that lololol To put it positively, he gives brutally honest facts and is frank, and to put it negatively, he could feel very rude lololol If you go, you will know what I mean lolololol
Anyway, if you want to be objectively hit with harsh truths about your face, or since this clinic is also very famous for revision surgery..
Because the doctor is conservative too, whether it is your first surgery or revision surgery, the consultation is definitely worth getting lol It is very helpful too.. and there is no consultation fee. (When everyone visits clinics, I hope you make sure to consult at one or two conservative clinics too.. That way the chance of failure goes down, yep.)
But now that I think about it, other clinics hold the line and show you in a mirror, but this clinic did not do that lolololol No, for real, the director has the answer decided already lolololol So at the end, I just showed him the eyes I wanted and asked him to do it like that, and he said that was what he was planning to do lolololol
Things I feel uneasy about: There are reviews saying he sets the line high.. There are not really any reviews saying it failed.. But there are hardly any reviews at all, so I am anxious ㅜㅜㅜ Even when I looked through Naver cafes besides this community, there were no reviews ㅜㅜ So I even suspected whether there were brokers.. But the director also does not seem like the type to do that lololol
Anyway, I am thinking of getting surgery at one of these two places, either here or Director ㅂㅇㅎ at ㅇㅇㅂ Plastic Surgery... lololol I still have three more places left to visit.. For now, these two places feel the most trustworthy and appeal to me the most.
Once I visit just three more places, my eye-surgery consultation rounds will be over lololol (Remaining places: ㅂㅌ ㅎㅇㅅ, ㅍㄹㅁㅇ ㅈㅇㅈ, ㅇㅇㅋ) For reference, I am only going to ㅍㄹㅁㅇ for a consultation because it is so famous. I absolutely have no intention of having surgery there lol
