Clinic name: ㅇㄴ Plastic Surgery Consultant: Director ㅇㅈㄴ Consultation fee: None Consultation details: This was the first clinic I consulted at today, and they recommended the highest possible in-out line. The issue was more sagging than fat removal. They recommended epicanthoplasty and upper canthoplasty. My eye-opening strength is weak. The doctor was kind and explained things in detail. But I had less trust in the consultation manager before and after seeing the doctor. First of all, they used a toothpick. They were the only one among the three places I visited today who did that. They recommended getting LASIK after 6 months (their opinion differed a lot from the other two places, so I think I need to check this). When discussing the cost, they immediately presented the total amount. 2.75 million won. It was the middle price among the three today, but much higher than the amount I had been looking into. Since it was my first consultation, I had nothing to compare it with at the time, but after consulting at three places today and thinking about it, it felt less professional, and the explanation about the cost was insufficient. There was no consultation fee, and I liked Director ㅇㅈㄴ’s kind explanation.
Clinic name: ㅍㄹ ㅁㅇ Plastic Surgery Consultant: Director ㄱ ㅁ ㅅ Consultation fee: None Consultation details: I had heard beforehand that it was expensive and so on, so I didn’t have high expectations, but it was very good. Both the consultation manager and the doctor were kind, and they said fat removal is needed, but making the in-out line very high would be difficult. They recommended a natural look rather than a flashy one. Incision / ptosis correction. They recommended that I probably don’t need canthoplasty, and it would be done under local anesthesia. This was the only place today where I paid a deposit and scheduled the procedure date. Under 2 million won. I still have one place where I booked a consultation, so for now I decided this is a final candidate. Satisfied.
Clinic name: ㄱㄹ Plastic Surgery Consultant: Director ㅎㅈㅎ? Consultation fee: None Consultation details: With an acquaintance referral, 10% discount on both sides. In-out, epicanthoplasty, ptosis correction, incision. They recommended holding off on posterior lower canthoplasty because it takes time. My glabella is a bit wide, so they suggested epicanthoplasty and correction. The line can go up to 9 mm at most. My skin is a little thick and there is some fat too. They recommend a forehead lift for people in their mid-20s or older. The consultation manager seemed middle-aged, and the guidance felt formulaic. There were helpful points in the doctor’s explanation, but when the manager talked about the cost, they just roughly mentioned pieces here and there, and adding them up, it came close to 4 million won. @@;;
Luckily, after consulting at three places in 3 hours, what I felt was... The hot(?) clinics recently mentioned on various apps or communities actually seem to quote high prices. Is it marketing costs... The consultation managers who felt less professional also talked about high costs. I’m going to consult at the one place I really wanted to visit in a few days and then make the final decision. If consultation managers have discretion over the quote, it seems important to meet someone who is kind, professional, and cool-headed. I hope everyone receives good procedures at good clinics and is happy.
