The community review

As expected with surgery, the director explained every situation in uncertain terms, which was a bit frustrating. For example, the plan was to do an inframammary incision, but if there were rupture during the inframammary approach (my breast implant ruptured), then we might have to switch to a vertical incision. As for the capsule, they said they would only remove the severely contaminated parts (since only one side had ruptured, I wondered whether it was okay to remove only the capsule on that side...). In short, the plan was to open it up and decide then. Realistically, that may have been the most reasonable and accurate direction, but for someone like me who worries a lot and likes exact answers, it did not feel like a good fit (this is about compatibility with me personally, not that it is objectively bad). Everyone was kind. The only disappointing thing was that I paid 150,000 won for an ultrasound (the senior doctor who does the ultrasound was very kind), but when I asked for the records to be issued, they said it would take a week and told me to come back after a week haha. Even a local regional general hospital gives you the ultrasound report on the same day, so I could not understand the system. If you get a revision consultation here, make sure you know that after getting the ultrasound, you will need to get another ultrasound when you consult another hospital that same day too (double ultrasound expense).
