Hi guys, I guess I'll start my review here. I consulted with many clinics in korea and decided to go with VIP Plastic Surgery. Together with Breast Augmentation, I'm having Rib Cartilage Rhinoplasty with Midface Augmentation, and forward Genioplasty. I'll have separate review on these.

During my initial consultation, I wanted to have many surgery at once coz I really didn't want to have another surgery in the future. I brought up breast augmentation, rhinoplasty, midface, genioplasty, zygoma reduction, blepharoplasty, on the table during my consultation. Anyway, the doctor flat out told me I don't need those other things, the most important things he recommends for me is genioplasty, and rhinoplasty, and sure breast augmentation because I really wanted it. He told me to recover from these surgery, the result might satisfy me enough to not even want those other procedure. And clearly, he said that I really don't need zygoma reduction and blepharoplasty. I feel a bit rejected at that time, but now that I'm thinking about it, I must have been out of my mind because recovering from just these 3 chosen procedure is extremely hard enough.

I'm currently 3 days post op. I think it's still too early to share before and after photos so I'll wait until 7 days for exactly one week to start with photo updates. But I'll share my experience so far for Breast Augmentation. My reviews for rhinoplasty, and genioplasty will be linked when available.

Right after waking up from general anesthesia up to 1st day post op:

I was knocked out, couldn't really sleep deeply. I'm just consciously passed out. There's no pain if you're just staying still. But if you start using your hands and moving your back, you might feel sharp pain probing your chest area. It's nothing you can't tolerate, assuming you stop yourself from putting pressure to the breast the moment you feel pain. Good thing though is that they attached a pee connector/holder with me so I don't have to prop myself up to go to the bathroom. Doctor also took off the bra I wore post surgery, he said that I have to let my breasts be comfortable and drop freely for 2 weeks.

2nd day post op:

I started coughing, not a lot, probably like 4 to 5 times, but girl do each coughs hurt. It's like putting pressure on your chest again by moving around but this time it wrap around your chest and you feel like if you cough too hard, you're gonna explode. The pee connector is removed and I had to start bringing myself up to go to the bathroom. It's not that bad since they have the hospital beds that you can bend up to 90 degree angle.

3rd day post op:

Bringing myself up, getting out of bed, is a lot more easier. There's still those sharp pain if you move out of you comfort zone. I still have the cough too, a lot worse now, and it hurts for each cough, but it's nothing I can't tolerate. They also removed the dripper that catches bad blood from my boobs today. After the check up, they discharged me to the hospital and off I go to their free accommodation room, where I'll be staying for 12 days until I'm better on my own. They set me up with soup deliveries, bought and explain all my medication for me, and got me the pumpkin juice for swelling.

Thanks for the detail review and pictures. You look really good for just a few days post op. I'll be going to VIP for the neck/face SMAS lift in October. What do you mean they set you up for soup delivery at the apartment? For how many days? My concern is when I go to their apartment after the hospital discharge, how do I get around to buy foods for the next couple days so if they have this setup then I don't have to worry about it.

Today, the doctor checked my breast for the 4th time, and he said it looks perfect. I still am not told to do any massage or wear any bra.

Also, i got my first bowel movement today after surgery! Things seem to be getting better from here.

Today I'm not so happy. Doctor checked my breast and he said he'd like to correct the incision line on my right breast to be lower. He will do this within an hour under local anesthesia.

He said the 325cc moderate round mentor implant is too big for my body.
