**My characteristics** - Long midface - Short and small chin - Had an 8 mm silicone chin implant inserted 8 years ago - There is no problem with the implant, but I decided on surgery because I was aesthetically unsatisfied - Consulted for implant removal + chin advancement
1. Sure’s / Director Park Jin-gyu - Consultation fee: 20,000 KRW (paid after the consultation) - Diagnosis: [implant removal] + [6 mm + 6 mm (total 12 mm) two-step osteotomy] + [T-osteotomy 0.5] - Quote: implant removal 1 million + two-step osteotomy 5.5 million -> If partial photo disclosure is allowed, possible down to 6.3 million - If CCTV is wanted, a guardian can view it during surgery - Postoperative care: swelling injections - (Since I said I snore) genioglossus advancement would be performed at the same time - They said it would be sutured with dissolvable thread, so separate removal is not needed, but if I feel discomfort, they will remove it at the 2-week? visit - Surgery time: 1 hour to 1 hour 30 minutes
2. Gyalumhan / Director Park No-hyeok - Consultation fee: 20,000 KRW (prepaid when reserving by phone) - Diagnosis: [implant (8 mm) removal] + [6 mm advancement], since my chin is very small, absolutely no separate T-osteotomy - Quote: 4.5 million - An anesthesiology specialist with 26 years of experience is present during surgery - Operating room CCTV available - No excessive surgery; before the full consultation, the consultant emphasized that the director has an honest style (does not recommend unnecessary surgery) - The amount of advancement may be less than with the implant However, because the front chin and surrounding bone are pulled forward, the line should improve; they said to focus on implant removal and line improvement rather than expecting a dramatic result - Surgery time: 1 hour
3. Taco / Director Kim Tak-ho - Consultation fee: none - Diagnosis: [implant removal] + [7-8 mm advancement] + [chin fat grafting] - Quote: one type of facial contouring 5.5 million + fat grafting 1st session 880,000 / 2nd session 1.1 million - On the day of surgery, if the guardian wants, they can watch the operating room CCTV in real time - They said two-step advancement could be considered, but the smaller and more recessed the chin is, the more advancement is needed, and the greater the chance the chin becomes angular and the facial line looks unattractive. So they suggested advancing as much as possible in one step and adding the insufficient volume with fat grafting. - The consultation was extremely detailed and long. They analyzed while looking at CT images and also composited the expected post-surgery appearance with Photoshop. They also showed photos of another patient with a case similar to mine. Personally, among the three places, I was most satisfied with this consultation... I don’t know why they don’t charge a consultation fee.. At this level, I feel like they should.. - Surgery time: 2 hours
Posting this consultation review as a reference for everyone with a case similar to mine!!
