I had my dimple surgery at that clinic in Gangnam that comes up the most when you search for dimple surgery lol
The director wasn’t particularly kind or anything. I went in for a dimple consultation and asked about nose filler, and he told me to get forehead filler instead; I like my forehead, though
At first it hurt so much I thought I was going to die, and I went there every day asking them to give me antibiotic injections. It was my first procedure (I’d never even had Botox or anything like that), so I got scared, and because it hurt so much I thought something had gone wrong and that it wasn’t healing;; dimple surgery really, really, really hurts
Then once it stopped hurting, I forgot about it and just lived my life, and all the tissue filled in lolololol Now nobody can tell I had it done. I live hearing that my dimples are pretty
To my eyes it looks noticeable, but I guess not
But after getting it done, the thread inside the cheek doesn’t dissolve; it stays there holding the muscle, so I can feel something tiny. Because I have a habit of constantly touching things like that if I dig at it, it causes pigmentation;;; People with bad hand habits like me, don’t do it ^^ lol;;; A scar appears like an acne mark, and just when it’s about to disappear, I’m touching the thread inside my cheek again This is more bothersome than you’d think. I guess removing this thread would cost money again, right?
They said one side originally had a dimple, so they fixed it lightly, and they fixed the other side strongly. There are pros and cons. The strongly fixed side indents even when I smile just a tiny bit, and the weakly fixed side is weak, so when I apply force, a slight snake-like shape is visible (to my eyes). It isn’t a natural dimple shape. (But nobody knows. Only I notice it)
But when I smile, rather than looking snake-like, it feels like the muscle just moves naturally, so it’s okay too
I don’t think the staff or the director were kind.
There are no wrinkles or anything like that at all, and I don’t remember exactly, but I think it took about 6 months for the tissue to fill in completely. After a year, it just became mine But when I touch my cheek, the dimple area feels a bit more deeply sunken than the other skin? I guess it’s because the muscle is held inside? I live very satisfied with it
I think it was 450,000 won for both sides, but since I kept going there every day whining that it hurt, asking for antibiotics, and asking if something serious was happening to me, I think the medication and hospital fees ended up costing more... It really hurts, so if you’re easily scared, don’t do it
