Patient review of Baimi (바이미) · 2026-09-28

When I first entered the clinic, many photos of the director, including personal photos and photos taken like a pictorial, were displayed throughout the clinic. Personally, I had not had good experiences at clinics that heavily emphasized the medical staff's own image, so it felt somewhat unfamiliar at first, but I decided not to judge the clinic based on that alone and moved on. Procedure after paying for 5 cc without a consultation with the director My initial consultation was with the clinic manager, not the director. I was told that my temples were quite hollow and was recommended 5 cc, for which I paid approximately 2 million won. Naturally, I thought that before the procedure, the director would personally examine my face and make the final decision about the amount actually needed. However, I went straight into the procedure room without a separate consultation with the director, and I saw the director for the first time only immediately before the procedure. I had already paid for 5 cc, and in the end, all 5 cc was administered. During the procedure, the director talked a great deal. Personally, I wished the director would focus a little more on the procedure, but at the time I thought perhaps this was to help a nervous patient feel comfortable, so I did not say anything. Until then, I actually thought the director was friendly and treated patients comfortably. The surface remained bulging and uneven even after three weeks Immediately after the procedure, I could see areas of the temple that protruded and areas where the surface was uneven. At first, I also thought it was swelling. When it remained the same after a week, I contacted the clinic. I was told that there could still be swelling, so I believed them and waited longer. However, even after about three weeks, the protruding areas remained, while other areas looked deeply hollow. In the end, because of this problem, I traveled from outside the city to visit the clinic again.

In the end, because of this problem, I traveled from outside the city to visit the clinic again. The protruding area was pressed by hand and remodeled When I returned, the way I was treated felt considerably different from my first visit. I kept explaining which areas looked abnormal to me, but I felt that the director did not regard the areas I considered problematic as any particular problem. The director pressed the protruding area with their hand and remodeled it. There was something I did not understand in this process, so I asked about it. Me: “If you press and spread the protruding filler with your hand, would that not make it occupy a larger area? Then I wonder whether the filler might spread into areas where it did not originally need to be placed, and whether too much filler was put in from the beginning.” The director explained to the effect that this could never happen because no dissection had been performed. When I continued asking because I still did not understand, I received a response to the effect of, “If you put it that way, I have nothing more to say.” I cannot judge what the medical principle is. However, from my perspective, it was difficult to understand the explanation that pressing a concentrated, protruding area flat with the hand would not cause it to spread into the surrounding area. I only wanted an explanation of the principle by which the bulging volume became flat. But the more I continued asking questions, the more it felt as though the director was uncomfortable with the conversation itself. “the limitations of filler,” explained only after the result appeared Even after the remodeling, one side of my temple still looked bumpy and wrinkled to me. When I continued discussing this, the director explained to the effect that it could happen because of the limitations of filler, and said that the only thing they could do was dissolve the filler. The director also said, “Isn't it still better than being hollow?” However, before the procedure, I was never told that the surface could look bumpy or uneven after filler was placed, or that this could be a limitation that may occur with filler procedures. If I had received this explanation before the procedure, I would have first considered whether I was willing to accept that possibility before deciding to have filler. In particular, I do not think that saying, “Isn't it still better than being hollow?” is something the practitioner should decide on the patient's behalf. Whether to leave the temples slightly hollow or undergo filler while accepting the possibility that the surface may look uneven is something the person receiving the procedure should choose after receiving a sufficient explanation. I was personally very disappointed that I was told this was “a limitation of filler” only after the result had occurred. An employee pressed again the area remodeled by the director Another bewildering thing happened during the filler remodeling process. When I continued to be dissatisfied with the result of the director's remodeling, an employee standing nearby pressed the area with their hand. It may have been intended to help. However, I had paid expecting the director's procedure and remodeling, so I was bewildered when I saw another employee pressing again with their hand the area the director had remodeled. Therefore, when I asked, “What are you doing? Why are you pressing again the area the director worked on?”, I personally saw the employee throw the cotton swab they were holding toward a trash can some distance away, as if offended. It could be said that they were simply throwing away a cotton swab, but because this happened in the flow of the conversation at the time, I found it extremely unpleasant from my perspective. Afterward, the surface on one side continued to bother me, so I spoke to the director again. I asked, “What I am talking about is not whether there is too much or too little volume, but the wrinkled area on the surface. Did you understand what I said?” The director replied, “Why are you speaking that way?” and during the conversation I personally saw the director take off and throw the gloves they had been wearing. I had not used profanity or shouted at the time. I was explaining and asking questions about the parts of the result that concerned me, so this reaction felt extremely bewildering and unpleasant. “I am making time in my busy schedule to see you” During the return visit, the director also said something to the effect that they were making time in their busy schedule to see me. However, from my perspective, I had not simply gone for an additional consultation; I had traveled from outside the city because of the result of the initial procedure. So hearing this made me feel uncomfortable. Rather than feeling cared for as a patient, I felt as though I had raised an unnecessary issue and was taking up a busy person's time. Most of all, although I had felt during my first visit that the director was friendly and treated me comfortably, when I returned to ask questions about the result, the tone, word choice, and way of answering questions felt considerably different from the first visit. What disappointed me more than the result was the aftercare response There can be individual differences in procedure results, and I am not trying to conclude that the procedure itself was definitively performed incorrectly based only on my experience. However, since this was a procedure for which I paid approximately 2 million won, I wish I had at least had the opportunity to speak directly with the director before the procedure, receive a sufficient explanation about the appropriate amount, the limitations of filler procedures, and the possibility that the surface could look uneven afterward, and then make an informed decision. Of course, I was also disappointed that the result differed from what I expected. But personally, what disappointed me most about this experience was the way I was treated while raising concerns about the result and asking for explanations. I wrote this review based on what I personally saw and heard while accompanying my parents to their procedure. At present, I am also considering dissolving the filler, and personally have no intention of visiting this clinic again. If someone close to me said they were considering the same procedure at this clinic, I would at least tell them about what I experienced and advise them to learn enough before deciding.
