Filter reviews by procedure Facial Rejuvenation Surgery Very Good Plastic Surgery - with Dr. Choi Min Hyeob
After spending a lot of time researching facial rejuvenating surgery in several countries I chose Very Good Plastic Surgery in Seoul, Korea. Doctor had great reviews and many years of experience. He was very kind, patient, and took the time to explain the procedure. The nurses and staff are with you every step of the way and are a much needed support. Jenny, Lilit, Smule, Candy, and so many others… thank you so much for your compassion and help.
I set my video consultation appointment, then made the trip to the beautiful country of Korea. From my first appointment at the clinic, the staff helped me with all arrangements. I had my surgery and stayed at the clinic overnight. The staff walked me to get my prescriptions, andI then I recovered at my hotel returning for many check up visits including hyperbaric treatments for a speedy recovery with the doctor and staff. The recovery process is long, but the staff will be there to support you. Again, thank you to all involved in my experience! If you are considering having surgery, I would highly recommend Very Good Plastic Surgery to all!
Hugely Recommend This Plastic Surgery - Amazing Doctor, Workers and Experience. Revision Rhinoplasty
13 days post-op
I had a revision rhinoplasty and lip fillers, I can’t express enough how facilitating Jenny and all the staff were. It’s daunting to have any cosmetic surgery done but they take great care of you, ensuring all of your worries, needs and desires are communicated clearly. After last time where results were not exactly what I’d hoped for, I felt a little worried but they really listened, highlighting exactly what I did want and didn’t, working within the constraints of my nose type (bulbous.) The head Dr Im Young Min was extremely professional, caring and friendly, making refinements whilst keeping it looking natural. I’m so greatful, he’s really skilful and attentive ! when I got my lip fillers done again I was quite worried about the pain but all the staff were so supportive, providing comfort in an uncomfortable situation, Lilit especially as I had a rather tight grip on her hand I also must say the healing was quicker than I expected, their facilities including deswelling treatments and the aftercare services were effective, relaxing and helped massively with the healing.
They do really listen to you and try to improve your experience, especially Jenny as she frequently checked in every day making sure your wellbeing is good and all needs are met whilst being super nice. Getting medication and consultations were also very easy, overall it was an accessible, straightforward and good experience! I love my new nose already and can’t wait for more of the swelling to go down. If you are a foreigner or not I cannot recommend this clinic enough, they’re great, practical and effective - I couldn’t be anymore thankful ????? so thank you VG. The results are better than I had hoped for, Dr Young min precision and technical skills really are reflected. Despite it being the first week and a half and having very thick skin, I can already see the refinements he made, I'm so happy with it!! This is a doctor and clinic you can trust 100% they’re amazing.
