I went to five places in total, but I’ll just summarize the three that stayed in my memory the most. The reason I’m only doing three is because writing everything is a hassle.. and I’m organizing this for myself to look at (awkward)
ㅁㅂ *No consultation fee *24 years of experience based on ㅂㅂㅌ Maybe because they do other plastic surgeries here too? The breast surgery area is on a separate basement floor. The hospital itself wasn’t big, but I was surprised because there were a lot of people. Still, I didn’t have to wait. The director measured my dimensions very carefully. They started by asking why I wanted breast surgery, and I felt they were very kind.. To put it positively, the type who explains everything from A to Z? So I felt like I should set aside plenty of time. I had only booked ㅁㅂ that day, so it was okay, but if I had packed multiple appointments into one day, it would have been tight. I had a consultation for almost an hour lol. They said my breasts were slightly sagging, but that I didn’t need a breast lift. Dual plane/Motiva, Mentor/transaxillary incision, inframammary incision all okay, no preference.
ㄱㄹ *No consultation fee *24 years of experience based on ㅂㅂㅌ It was a clean, modern-feeling hospital. Maybe because I was the first appointment, but I was the only one there. I had the consultation without waiting. I asked because another hospital had mentioned a breast lift, and the director reacted negatively, like why would someone in their 20s need a lift. Here, the consultation with the consultant was longer than with the director. It felt like the director briefly diagnosed me for 2 minutes? 3 minutes? and the consultant explained it in more detail. The consultant also explained all the side effects, and they spent a long time on the consultation, but I felt disappointed because I saw the director, who would actually perform the surgery, for too short a time. Dual plane/Motiva/inframammary incision.
ㅁㅂㅇ *Consultation fee 30,000 won, returned when going home (they transferred it to my account) *26 years of experience based on ㅂㅂㅌ I was a bit surprised because the consultation fee was so high, but they said it was to prevent no-shows, so well.. I felt the director’s style was a bit similar to the first hospital. They showed me what I’d look like after breast surgery using something like 3D, but I was a little surprised because they said regular implant surgery here is done under sleep sedation..! I had thought, aren’t all breast surgeries usually done under general anesthesia? They did say my breasts are the type that would need a lift, but because I’m not old and I’m unmarried, they said they’d leave it up to my choice. But since I’d also heard breast lift surgery mentioned, hmm.. They did say if I also do a lift, the surgery would be under general anesthesia, but anyway, I was satisfied with just having the consultation here. Subfascial/Motiva/inframammary incision.
I’m not in a rush to look into breast surgery, and I plan to decide after going to as many consultation clinics as possible, so I’m organizing it like this for now and planning to go around for more consultations lol. If I get surgery, I’ll probably go to almost 10 places for in-person consultations before doing it.. Still, it was good that after checking experience on ㅂㅂㅌ and going for consultations, whether I asked about implants or incision sites, the directors answered everything without hesitation. Besides the three places above, they all answered well the same way.
So everyone, I recommend searching the doctor’s experience on ㅂㅂㅌ before booking a consultation~ I suddenly got curious about the newly released Mentor Boost too, so I’m planning to search and look into it more.. I should touch and try fitting as many available implants as possible with my own hands before surgery, otherwise I think I’ll regret it lol
