I'm planning to do jaw surgery in Korea in January.
My first surgery in Korea at BK Clinic.
Would love a travel/ surgery buddy!

Hi, have you done the surgery at BK?
I am really interested in having surgery in Korea soon.

Speaking from experience, if you made your expectations clear to your surgeon prior to surgery and the result is significantly short of what was agreed upon, I would suggest seeking out a more qualified and experienced surgeon. Your result is HIGHLY dependent on the skill of your surgeon. I had my rhinoplasty done in the Philippines by Dr Rino Lorenzo. Found his website while I was researching for overseas surgeon in Asia. Needless to say I got great results and better pricing.

I am going to go to Korea next week and wonjin is one of the clinics I am intending to go for consultation before having surgery.

I will let you know after I visit there.

Hi, i'm thinking of doing SET scareless double eyelid to make my eyes look bigger than current double eyelid.

anybody here is familiar with Thailand doc? or any group departure for cosmetic surgery & shopping trip? Pls email chris_ttal@yahoo.com.sg

Thanks in advance

Based on my experience last February with my cosmetic surgery in Manila, Philippines, everything went smoothly. My experience was okay and I was confident with my doctor, Dr Rino Lorenzo. If you are confident with your doctor, studied his background and all, then you are more or less well on your way to a successful surgery.

Has anyone have tummy tuck done by Colin Song from SGH? Can share your experience with him?

Dear Hilda,
I've made appointment to do my tummy tuck in Nov. The time is drawing near & I do know that this is what I want but I'm also nervous about the risks. Care to share your experience with me? Did you do it on General or Local? My surgeon wants to use epidural. As you know, I'll be going to Bangkok & I'll be all alone. How was the pain? What medication did you take? How long before all pain was gone?
i'd really like to know more about your experience & if you don't mind, can you send me an email at slantau@yahoo.co.uk
. I'm really happy for you that it all went well.

Hello everyone,
I finally did my tummy tuck 2 weeks ago at SGH by Dr Colin Song. Got my belly button stitches remove (2nd visit after discharge) yesterday by Dr Song. Like Superstar, I was comtemplating to do it in Thailand (Phuket for me... surgeon quoted me US$3,000 all in with hospital stay) initially but after some thoughts & research, I've decided to do it in Singapore. Dr Song is really nice & caring...very informative and willing to share which is important. After seeing him, my mind was so much settled. It is more expensive to do it here but one of the main reason I drop the idea of going to Phuket is because I wanted to be near my family and having them around you during the first week of surgery is important as you will need help to do simple things. I stayed in SGH for 3 nites (btw the nurses and Dr Song were great! Am surprised to get such good service & care at govt hospital). Get off bed to walk after 3pm of day 2. Slept with my back elevated and legs flexed for a week as I cannot stand or lie straight like normal. Gotta be careful that I don't 'pop' the stitches inside and outside. If anyone of you are interested to know more detail of what happened after surgery, I'll be happy to share.

It is too early to tell at this stage because there are still swellings (will go away slowly approx 6 months time per Dr Song) BUT I'm really happy with my tummy now, looks so much better before the op even though the swellings are still there! No regrets! All I need to do now is to take good care of my wound and scar so that they heal nicely.

Cheers!
Hilda

Problems caused on my face after acculift and sliding genio and mini v line in ID hospital by Dr Park done at 4/2012

2.)over sucked acculift(lipo) on the cheeks causing depression (a massive dent on the cheeks)
3.) left and right cheek completely asymmetrical as well one side has more fat being suck and the other less
4.) over corrected in chin reduction that cause chin looks detached form the top half f the face
5.) Irregularies of the chin, the right side looks as if someone took a bite from it while the left side is less sevre
6.) Nerve damage, lower teeth still feels numb 1 year after the operation


Nearly a year after the surgery 3/2013:

I finally booked my ticket to go back, to search for a solution and an answer or an apology from them.


A meeting with Dr Park almost 1 year after the surgery:

They sent a consultant to see me first, her name is Ena to discuss what is wrong. I successfully obtained an important piece of proof from her:
During our conversation I asked her ‘its not Dr Park who did the operation right?’
She hastily replied out of panic ‘ well but he is the one made sure everything is alright before the operation and he monitors things after the operation too…’
I caught this on my portable recorder. Bingo.


So Park came in after a long wait. He didn’t even make to effort to be polite. He coldly asked me what the problem is again after I explained in details with Ena for 20 mins.

A.)
I didn’t even have the time to explain things since he is so impatient and kept interrupting me with ‘I don’t know what you are saying’ every 2 seconds, which I am guessing that means ‘ I refuse to admit I did a shit job’
B.)
When I indicated too much bone has been removed, oddily he replied:’ YOUR CHIN IS ORGINALLY THIS SMALL I didn’t remove any bone! What are you talking about?!! It takes 6 years of medical knowledge to understand the mechanism so I wont bother’
wtf??!! Not only he didn’t do the operation, he didn’t even make the effort to read my file properly before entering the room, he didn’t even know Mini-V was done beside genioplasty since he was the one who suggested I have a bigger chin than I needed. He also didn’t bother explaining and treated me like a retard.
Out of anger I said:’ do you know ‘you’ did a mini- V line on me as well? No you don’t! because you didn’t do the operation’
He panicked, startled for a few seconds and replied “ I have so many patients I don’t know…’
Then kept laughing oddly and coldly in a very creepy way for the rest of the conversation,â€Â

Hello!! I m New here!!

[JJ Lim82]

Can someone please tell me where to get a good eyelid plastic surgeon. I need to go for a revision. Mine was done last year and looks awful with one big and one small. I'm like going crazy looking at the mirror everyday. If possible kindly recommend surgeon from malaysia.

Hey Sadgirl,

Im new in this forum. Actaully we are in the same situation. I'm frm M'sia n the china lady has spoiled my eyes (i did the revision by her as well, but the result more worse!) After the revision, i have sit infront of PC everyday when i woke up n doing research as many as i can. My b.f also complaint bout me, but he dont understand my feeling.

I think of revise at Korea, but the cost is super expensive. Now i'm researching info bout surgery in Thailand. If possible, dont go revise at local anymore as i think most of Dr skills is just for primary surgery.

If you need help just email me: jlov3j_82@yahoo.com We can actually ex change the info our plan to Thailand for the surgery. Actaully, i dont afraid to go alone, but i cant find a good dr yet.
