First, let me introduce my eyes. I had surgery ten years ago at a hospital in Guwol-dong, Incheon. I was young then, and it was a surgery I had to do with my parents helping pay, so I couldn't go to one of the expensive places.. They said they'd do incision + eye correction + epicanthoplasty all together for cheap, so I went ahead with it. But now I regret it.. Even though it's been 10 years, even people meeting me for the first time have said things like, 'Did you get double eyelids?' or 'Your eyes feel heavy,' and when I look down, the scars are so bumpy that I can't even lower my eyes properly.. Even when I open my eyes, the double eyelids are uneven and the line isn't smooth... In a situation where the surgery I got to look prettier became a complex, I was honestly scared of revision surgery too.. I was worried it might go wrong again.. And since I currently live outside the capital area, for the past few years I've been going to any place in the provinces that people say did a good job and getting consultations.. But when the doctors kept saying things like it's all luck, even if it's done the effect is only 50 percent, or there's no certainty whether it'll work or not, I got scared to have revision surgery.. So my mom suggested that if I'm going to do it anyway, I should at least get consultations at famous places in Seoul, so I went.
1. ㅍㄹㅁㅇ Director Jang Consultation fee: 10,000 won Here the director said I'd need to redo the double-eyelid incision, but that the scar might not become as clean as I want. He said the scar is deep and there's not much eyelid space, so it's a difficult eye.... He seemed not very certain.. The manager who handled the consultation was so kind She said she herself got revision surgery from the director and it turned out well, so she recommended him. They are a hospital that has a partnership with an agency, and he is the doctor who takes care of celebrities.. That part did catch my interest, but because the director didn't seem confident... Eye correction + double-eyelid revision 330
2. ㅅㅍㄹㅅ Director Kim Consultation fee: 10,000 won Here the director said, as shown on YouTube, that to improve the scar, the sausage-like double eyelid would need to be made smaller, almost like a hidden double eyelid. He explained things very calmly and clearly, and the hidden double eyelid really did look almost like no eyelid crease at all, so I was a little drawn to it.. But I was worried there might be a gamble as to whether it would suit me or not.. Double eyelid 350, canthoplasty 150. He recommended outer canthoplasty too, saying it would help! But at other places everyone said outer canthoplasty was not recommended..
3. ㅋㄹㅁ Consultation fee - There was literally no one here, and it was easy to get a consultation appointment.. The director also seemed confident, and the double-eyelid surgery was in the 2-million-won range.. the cheapest. But maybe because there was nobody there, I felt suspicious?
4. ㅇㅇㅋ Director Choi Consultation fee: 10,000 won It was extremely hard to get an appointment.. The director was young, kind, and gave a very careful consultation. He said the double-eyelid size would need to be lowered and the line redone, and that the scar might not improve as much as I thought. He said not to expect too much, but that it would still be better than now. The manager in the consultation room was kind too. He explained well while showing before-and-after photos. 420
5. ㅁㅅㄹㅇ Director Shim Consultation fee - It was also really hard to get an appointment here.... When I actually got there, there were 4 people? 5 people? It felt like they only take a few teams a day because it's by appointment only. I had a consultation with the director.. very blunt. I'd heard he was originally the cool, dry type who just says what he wants, and sure enough, after looking at my eyes a few times, he drew a picture and explained my eyes in detail very well. He said the goal first and foremost was to make the crease look pretty when the eyes are open, and that the scar would not become clean exactly the way I wanted. He bluntly said things like he couldn't magically fix what other places had messed up and make it exactly how I wanted because he's not God... This is just my subjective impression, but after the consultation I felt like... the way he spoke sounded like he was saying he wouldn't take responsibility later even if something went wrong... I was taken aback... 480. The consultation manager was unfriendly.. maybe that's just their cold personality? Or maybe since the director did the consultation, they had nothing to say and didn't say anything? They just told me the price and that was it..
Since it's a revision, they all said my eyes are difficult eyes for surgery.. I actually leaned strongly toward ㅁㅅㄹㅇ because it's a hospital specializing in revision surgery and the director is said to be skilled, but after the consultation I started wondering if I should even go ahead, because if I have surgery later and don't like it, would they say, 'Didn't I tell you it wouldn't turn out exactly the way you wanted?' Also, I'm worried about the aftercare... I'm conflicted........ Brokers, please go away.......... I'm serious. I want to be treated by someone famous for revision surgery and truly skilled Could I trust any of these people with my eyes..? Where would you go if you were me....?
