Today is day 4 since my breast augmentation. I was a case with quite a lot of issues, so it wasn't an easy decision, but I'm very satisfied with my choice now. First, the situational issues were: 1. I'm at an age where it's embarrassing to say I'm getting breast surgery, and 2. I live overseas, so I have to leave Korea without securing enough recovery time. The issues with my breasts were: 1. I had nothing that could even be called breasts. One of my friends had one breast removed because of breast cancer surgery, and she said to me, "My breast is like yours now," which really hurt me. 2. The little breast tissue I had sagged after breastfeeding, the upper breasts became hollow, and on top of that, my breasts were seriously uneven. 3. The positions of both nipples were completely different, so even with surgery, that was something I had to accept as an unavoidable issue... Since I live abroad, I couldn't even get padded bras, so whenever I came to Korea, buying padded bras in bulk before going back was a whole task. I'd been thinking about breast surgery for 20 years, but I was too scared to even dare try it. For the past 10 years, whenever I came to Korea, I would go to one or two consultations, and 3 years ago, just as I had decided on surgery and was about to enter Korea, COVID broke out, so I couldn't come...ㅠㅠ... This time, I thought, "At this rate, I'll end up getting surgery when I'm 60," so I made up my mind and came, but the price of Motiva had gone up so much that the money I'd saved wasn't enough. I figured if I kept hesitating, the prices of everything else would go up too, so I thought, "Even if I have to fit it to my budget, let's do it this time," and finally went through with it. Since I had been getting consultations one or two places at a time and reading reviews for quite a long time, once I came to Korea I only had final consultations at two places (ㅇㅇㅌ, ㄹㅇㅇ), and the second one was a repeat consultation. The consultation results from the currently popular ㅇㅇㅌ and the place I revisited, ㄹㅇㅇ, were completely opposite, so I was really at a loss, but the reasons I chose ㄹㅇㅇ were: 1. They specialize only in breasts (personally, I also trusted them more because they don't do excessive marketing), and 2. I personally got a better feeling from Director Choi *-moon (from experience, there are people you just feel compatible with when they will be doing your surgery, and people you somehow don't quite feel right about... that's how I am). Today is day 4 after surgery, and I strongly recommend this clinic. 1. I truly have zero pain (personally... when I had laparoscopic surgery and a 1 cm incision, I couldn't even sneeze, but I had inframammary breast surgery and somehow it's like this... even on the second day, which people say is hard, I didn't feel anything. Honestly, I hadn't believed people when they said "no pain.") 2. They design before surgery, and on the day of surgery, after anesthesia and before inserting the implants, they check the size again with air and operate with the prettiest size. (In my case, they operated with a different size from what was decided at the consultation, and even though they haven't settled yet and there's still a lot of swelling, they look pretty.) 3. The incision is really small, so it doesn't look unsightly. 4. They are genuinely serious about aftercare, and unlike clinics that say "if there's no problem, there's no need to come," they tell you to "get checked often" and "come anytime," which also makes me trust them. Anyway, I resolved a lifelong regret. Oh right, my original size was 75AA, and the implants were Mentor Xtra Moderate Plus, 280 cc and 310 cc on each side. Originally, the nipple heights on both sides were extremely different, but after surgery, it's barely noticeable. I saw that there are almost no reviews here from people who had it done at this clinic... so I'm sharing my review in case it helps~~
