I visited about 3 places last month and posted about it, and yesterday I visited 3 more places and made my final clinic decision, so I’m posting this in case it helps! First of all, I have epicanthal folds, and my eyelids droop a bit, so my eyes are small and clam-shaped, with about 1/3 of my pupils covered! What I told all three clinics was that I wanted my eyes to look longer horizontally rather than vertically, and that I wanted eyes that looked open and refreshing!
1. ㅇㅇㅇ They didn’t pressure me too much about the deposit. First, it’s a one-female-director clinic, and she only does eye surgery, so I trusted it a little more. The consultation went in the order of consultant - director - consultant, and I went in the morning, but I don’t think the wait was long, maybe about 10 minutes? I liked how she designed the line for me, and I felt like she tried to reflect the semi-out line I wanted as much as possible within what was feasible. But since I have to work right after double eyelid surgery, I said I wanted a non-incisional method, and I heard that it could come undone almost 5 times ㅠ (the atmosphere was that she slightly recommended a small incision) Conclusion: I liked the line, but since I heard so many times that my eyes might come undone with a non-incisional method, I wondered, is it right to do it here? Price range: natural adhesion + epicanthoplasty/upper epicanthoplasty + ptosis correction + fat removal = high 1 million KRW range AS for 2 years, and they said postoperative swelling laser treatments, etc. are free
2. ㅇㅁㄹ / Director ㄷㅇㄹ There was no pressure to pay a deposit here either! But the wait was so long that I think you should go with plenty of time. I think I waited almost an hour and a half to two hours ㅠ The consultation went consultant - director - consultant, and it was nice because he drew on my eyes and explained the types of procedures and surgical methods in detail. When I consulted with Director ㄷㅇㄹ, I showed him celebrity photos and said I wanted eyes like this, and he clearly told me what was possible and what wasn’t. He pinpointed only the key things I’d likely be curious about, so I didn’t really need to ask much first, and I think the consultation didn’t even take 10 minutes. Also, like I saw in other reviews, he seemed confident in his skills, so honestly, looking only at the director, I felt I could trust him the most and leave it to him. As for the line, I’m the type whose line gets released easily, and I was blinking a bit so I couldn’t look closely, but I didn’t absolutely love it. Price range: epicanthoplasty + ptosis correction + natural adhesion = mid-2 million KRW range AS for 1 year, postoperative swelling laser treatments, etc. free
3. ㅍㄹㅇㅂ / Director ㅇㅈㅎ The consultation before this got delayed longer than expected, so I arrived an hour later than my appointment time, and I think I waited about an hour. The consultation went consultant - director - consultant, and since this was my 6th clinic visit, I was tired and couldn’t ask a lot of things, but the director basically designed the line for me and kept asking if I had any questions, so I think it would have been very helpful if this had been my first consultation. Also, the director said something like, his role is to correct things so that commonly mentioned sausage-like eyes or side effects don’t happen, while the line and shape are decided by the person consulting, so let’s talk together and match the line. That made me feel like he would adjust things as much as possible to the way I wanted. Price range: natural adhesion + epicanthoplasty + ptosis correction = very low 2 million KRW range AS for 1 year, postoperative swelling laser treatments, etc. can be free after discussing during consultation? treatment?
Ah, I think I wrote this way too disorganized ㅜ Final conclusion! Honestly, looking only at the director, I trusted ㅇㅁㄹ the most, but I didn’t get to see the line properly, and the price wasn’t exactly cheap, so I ruled it out. ㅇㅇㅇ and ㅍㄹㅇㅂ had similar price ranges and similar line designs, so I was deciding between the two, but since I heard too much at ㅇㅇㅇ about the possibility of it coming undone, I finally decided on ㅍㄹㅇㅂ, and I’m having surgery next week! Oh, and when I looked at double eyelid surgery review photos, ㅇㅇㅇ had a more natural feel, and ㅍㄹㅇㅂ had a slightly more glamorous? feel. I hope everyone takes that into account and chooses a good clinic
