I'm writing this two months after going in for an eye surgery consultation with Director Kim Jong-gyu. I went in around mid-July for the consultation. (I'll write the estimated prices from memory.) First, you have to leave a consultation reservation deposit of 10,000 won, and the waiting time from meeting the manager to seeing the director was about 40 minutes. The consultation was calm and thorough, to the point that I felt satisfied and that it was long enough. I had gone in with forehead lift somewhat in mind, and sure enough, they recommended a forehead lift. For the eyes too, I thought I might be able to do it with a non-incisional method like buried sutures, but he firmly said that if it wasn't done with incision it would loosen, so it differed a bit from what I'd been mentally preparing for and the direction I had in mind, which caught me off guard Since I'm male, he said that no matter how well a canthoplasty is done, it will inevitably show, so he didn't recommend it. Anyway, overall, they were kind, friendly, and thorough in the consultation, so the consultation fee didn't feel wasteful at all, and they clearly organized what was possible and what wasn't from an expert's point of view, so even though it was a little different from my perspective, it was very helpful. I even paid the surgery reservation deposit, but due to circumstances I ended up canceling and postponing the surgery itself for later (there is a cancellation penalty). If I plan surgery again, I think I would still consider Director Kim Jong-gyu even with the cancellation penalty.

I had surgery with the chief director early this year. From the start, I trusted them because of their experience, and I was not very worried, but they also calculated the cleavage and how the shape would spread in a very detailed way, so…

It is a one-doctor clinic, and maybe because there were many consultations and surgery schedules, the director seemed busy. Still, during the consultation, they explained the needed surgery well and answered all my questions. They did not…
