After living my whole life with monolids, I tried going around to consultations to get double eyelid surgery at a later age. I have long eyes with a lot of eyelid fat and thick skin, and I went in thinking of a natural, low inline or in-out line rather than a very dramatic style. This time, the plastic surgery clinics around Gangnam Station felt a bit crowded and factory-like?
1. Gangnam ㅋㅋ - full incision + ptosis correction The double eyelid surgery is done by a female director. Maybe she does a lot of surgeries, but she looked tired.. I went after seeing review photos, and the review photos were honest and pretty. During the consultation, she explained what kind of feeling my eyes would have after surgery, but she did not really say that my eyes would turn out prettyㅠㅠ I did feel she was honest, but I did not feel confident, so I passed. There is a consultation fee of 5,000 won.
2. Gangnam ㅇㅁㄹ - full incision I visited because I heard they do natural-looking results. The director was young and handsome. The consultation was very detailed, and it felt like they would adjust to the patient’s needs? When I said I was worried about ptosis correction, he said that for the look I wanted, I could skip ptosis correction and set the line low. Overall, the system and consultation flowed flexibly, and I trusted the director during the consultation process, so I placed a deposit. There are not many photo reviews, so I plan to look more.
3. Gangnam ㅇㅂㅈ - full incision + ptosis correction + lower eyelid fat repositioning I visited because I heard they are famous for lower eyelid fat repositioning, and I also got consultations for other areas. I felt that the younger the director was, the less they pushed their own opinion and the more they tried to listen to what the patient wanted. It was good that they explained the surgical method and things like that in detail. But they do pressure you to book the same day, and although I liked the consultation and placed a deposit, the deposit was expensive at 100,000 won, so decide carefully.
4. Gangnam ㅇㄹㅇ - full incision Almost all the clinics recommended ptosis correction, but this place said I did not need it. If the other clinics were places I found by searching online or reading reviews somewhere, this place was one I found only by looking at photo reviews on an app. The double eyelid lines in the reviews were so pretty that I just went. The head director’s consultation was not very detailed, but he spoke plainly, leaving out unnecessary content. He tried several lines while I explained the look I wanted, and the line he made was the prettiest. It seemed like a clinic famous for dramatic styles, so I only intended to get a consultation, but the price was affordable and I liked the line, so for now I placed a deposit. But after looking up reviews, the post-op care seems not very good, so I am debating... still debatingㅠ
