Zygoma Reduction in Seoul, 3 Months Postop

ORIGINAL POST

Zygoma Reduction in Seoul, 3 Months Postop

Firstenberg
WORTH IT$6,200
Back in August this year I’ve done my zygoma reduction. The most important factor is that my facial structure has been changed dramatically and now 3 months postop I think I finally started to look childish. The only thing I don’t really like for now is that my cheeks are a bit chubby, perhaps it’s because of swelling. Dr.’s assistant keeps telling me to be patient and wait a nit longer.
Another thing that bothers me a lot now is sagging. I’ve heard that once swelling completely went away, skin in most cases began to sag. That really scares me a lot. I don’t really think that I’m a good candidate for a facelift as I’m only in my 30s. I’ve been looking in to getting a plastic surgery in Korea for few years and now afraid to be disappointed even though, now my results all 100 satisfy me.
I also got endotine forehead lift to get rid of sagging skin on my upper eyelids. I didn’t really want to change the size of my crease, so upper blepharoplasty wasn’t a solution for me and I also didn’t want to decrease the distance between my eyes and brows, that’s why I didn’t proceed subbrow blepharo. So far, the result looks amazing!

Great results. I am interested in getting this done. Could you let me know where and approx cost? Do you have any photos without makeup to better compare with before photos? Thank you!

Thanks! The cost for cheekbone reduction was around USD $6.2K and the only place I can suggest is BANOBAGI and my surgeon :)

Thank you. I have booked in for consultation with Dr Jonglim but from your positive results I might change to Dr Oh.

How come you didn't do jaw reduction as well?I thought they always do zygoma and jaws together.

Have you ever done any surgeries in Korea before? I'm sorry if you had bad experience, but I do believe not all clinics as well as plastic surgeons are same!

Best plastic surgery experience ever!

I totally forgot to mention in my previous post that I also got rhinoplasty revision at Banobagi as well, on my after pics you can see that nose looks way more beautiful! As for skin laxity, hopefully I don’t experience any even after 5 months when swelling totally gone and my results are somewhat finalized. I’m beyond satisfied how my surgeries came out.
Any surgery has risks, that’s why it’s very important to minimize them by choosing the right doctor. I feel very lucky that went to Dr. Oh. Brilliant doctor with huge experience, very kind and extremely skilled.
P.s. For my zygoma reduction I paid $6,500 usd. Thanks for reading my reviews!
