Exactly 10 years ago, my first plastic surgery was breast augmentation surgery with implants. I didn’t really look into it properly and had surgery at some random clinic without a proper consultation, so there was no way that surgery could have turned out well. Both sides were uneven, I didn’t like the size, and not long after the surgery, capsular contracture developed too. That clinic has apparently closed down now? haha Honestly, the breasts are an area I keep covered, so I didn’t care that much, but at a health checkup center, they said the capsular contracture was severe, and that if I stayed in that contracted state for a long time, the probability of developing cancer could also increase, so I got really scared and started looking into revision surgery. I went for consultations at 7 places, from large factory-style clinics to private surgical clinics, and after choosing and choosing, the very, very, very, very final choice! I had breast revision surgery + abdominal contouring + thigh liposuction + pelvic fat grafting at Foret Plastic Surgery. The biggest reason I chose Foret was the transaxillary approach! Other clinics only said that a transaxillary incision was absolutely impossible, or that it was possible but difficult to remove the capsule cleanly. Those were the only answers I got, but Foret said they only operate through the transaxillary approach, so I was tempted. Another thing was that they apparently only do one or two surgeries a day. Since plastic surgery outcomes depend so much on the surgeon’s hands, the doctor’s condition is the most important, and Director Kim Minyoung at Foret only does one or two surgeries a day. They said that if I had surgery, it would be a long operation, so on that day they would operate only on me all day, and my mind gradually leaned toward Foret lol Director Kim Minyoung also has a blog, so I read it carefully, and since he doesn’t drink or smoke either, isn’t that basically reserving the best condition? Also, I had a severe body-shape complex, so I was looking into pelvic fat grafting, and Foret even does liposuction and fat grafting!! Oh, is Foret the clinic for me..? After thinking it over for a week, I decided on Foret, booked for 3 weeks later, and now it has been 3 weeks since I had breast revision surgery, abdominal contouring, thigh liposuction, and pelvic fat grafting. Since the director is a younger male doctor rather than an elderly grandfather-type doctor, I wondered if his aesthetic sense might be a bit better.. so I just showed him photos of the breast shape and body lines I wanted, and overall I trusted him and left it to him. My breasts didn’t hurt at all even right after surgery. Because it was transaxillary, it only hurt when I lifted my arms way up. Honestly, for the breasts, from immediately after surgery, and of course even now, I haven’t had a single worry. There’s no pain, and they were extremely soft even right after surgery, so I wondered, is this right? Are they normally this soft? Is this the latest technology? It was so fascinating. There is still a little swelling and bruising in my abdomen and thighs, but I can see lines I’d never had in my life, so I just look in the mirror every day. Before surgery, I had truly otherworldly hip dips and was just like a log. My waist was so straight that it looked so funny when I wore tight clothes.. They got rid of my thick love handles too.. especially my abdomen! With Director Kim Minyoung’s technique called abdominal contouring, he newly created abs that had disappeared without a trace since my 30s. They said I had to eat well to increase the engraftment rate of the pelvic fat graft.. Maybe I ate too diligently, because I gained 3 kg, but starting today I’m also taking the capsular contracture medication, and they said my progress is very good too! All the clinic staff are super kind, and there’s no waiting time, so it feels like my precious time is respected too.. I hope the swelling in my abdomen and thighs goes down soon too~
