*Hospital name: Mate -Doctor: Single-doctor clinic. Dr. Kim Geun-sik -What was good about the consultation : First of all, both the consultant and the director were thorough and sincere in the consultation, so even though it was the first hospital I consulted at, I really liked it. The consultant asked me carefully whether I wanted to go back to how I looked before epicanthoplasty, which parts I considered the priority, and what I wanted to improve. The director kept measuring the distance between my brows, eye distance, etc. with a ruler, and I liked that he told me whether improvement was possible and what concerns there might be.
-What was not so good about the consultation : The consultant was very calm and kind, but it did feel a bit commercial. She kept only telling me positive things, like that it would definitely go well, that the director is the best at epicanthoplasty restoration, that there would be no scarring... so it did feel like I was being swayed. : Also, it seems regenerative laser treatment is not included in aftercare. : I asked about the surgical method, but they only explained it very roughly. They did not explain it in detail. -Quote: 2.13 million KRW (epicanthoplasty restoration + restoration of under-eye aegyo indentation + skin type + forehead Botox)
*Hospital name: Batang -Doctor: Hwang Yong-seok (they said only this doctor does eye surgery) -What was good about the consultation : He spoke very realistically and very directly. I said I wanted the inner corners to become pointed, but he said epicanthoplasty restoration absolutely cannot make them pointed. Since my eyes are naturally on the round side to begin with, he said it is absolutely impossible, which made me face reality.
-What was not so good about the consultation : The consultation with the doctor was not good. He kept only emphasizing that a round shape absolutely cannot be changed, and when I said I understood and just wanted restoration, he asked why I wanted it and said it is not overly done even now. So when I said my impression had changed too much, he said in such a scolding way that of course your impression changes when you get epicanthoplasty... Honestly, I was already upset that I did not like my eyes, and I wondered if I really had to be scolded too, so I even cried when I was alone. And he just said what he wanted, did not let me ask any more questions, and left right away...
Overall result : Mate had a very good consultation, but there are some things that bother me. (price, surgical method, aftercare) : Batang seems to have a skilled director and good reviews, but it was such a poor fit for me, so no.
