This is my 6-week review of the pinching lift at Eiting Plastic Surgery. I had been stressed for a while about my nasolabial folds and my sagging jawline, and after only browsing on Instagram, I decided to go for it and have surgery with Director Kim Jong-gyu. I had thread lifts, Ulthera, and various other procedures, but I never got satisfactory results. After reading that the pinching lift minimizes scarring and also shortens recovery time, I decided on it. Since I’m an office worker, I was worried because I couldn’t take long leave, but recovery was faster than I expected, so that was a relief. Still, I think it’s better to expect mild swelling for about a month. Right after surgery, my cheekbones were so swollen I looked terrible... haha... and as for the pain everyone is curious about, it would be a lie to say there was none. I’d say it feels like the pulling sensation and discomfort, that strange feeling, you get with thread lifting. What I liked from the very first consultation was the director’s clean, no-nonsense explanation of the areas that needed it, and that he told me clearly what degree of effect to expect without exaggeration. I also liked that there was no excessive pressure. After surgery, the nasolabial folds that I hated were finally gone, so I’m unbelievably happy. Thread lifting never worked for me, so I just kept thinking I should have done the pinching lift right away instead of wasting money and time. If thread lifts didn’t work for you, I really recommend the pinching lift. And if I ever get lower eyelid fat repositioning, I want to do it here!!!!! I’ll save up my leave and come back for lower eyelid surgery.

The extraction fees are separate for each area, which is a bit disappointing. Abdominal liposuction (upper abdomen, lower abdomen, flanks): 2.1 million won. Thighs: consulted first, then liposuction from the area with more volume, 3.8…

There was no consultation fee, so it felt easy to go in for a consultation at first. I remember the director explaining things professionally and well. But the wait was a bit long. It also felt a little hectic and mentally busy. Still…
