Antiaging Experience in Korea

ORIGINAL POST

Antiaging Experience in Korea

WORTH IT
I tried a lot of procedures before deciding on having an invasive lifting however they wouldn’t make much difference. All those creams and lasers didn’t work for me and my aging face, so I knew that I had to go under the knife because all women in our family are tend to have sagging skin early. I lost the last drop of patience when I noticed so called turkey neck started to appear.
I immediately searched for a place to have lifting, and my husband offered me to go to Korea. It was really scary to go to another country for the first time to get a surgery, but looking back now I can say that the hardest thing was to make a decision. I was convinced by korean plastic surgery results that are very well-known in Asia so my husband and I went to Korea to have a consultation.
To be honest, I was really scared that something would go wrong. I was scared of side effects and that I would have a misunderstanding with doctor, and that all the trip wouldn’t worth it. However the translators, nurses and doctor in ID Hospital made me and my husband feel relieved, and we decided to get a surgery there.
I had 3 procedures at once: acculifting, mini lift and neck lift. I didn’t have questions about acculift and neck lift because I’ve already thought of them before, but I wasn’t sure what mini facelift was. It turned out to be a combination of liposuction and face lifting – a procedure developed by ID doctors. All together it had a stronger effect of lifting ad improving stretched skin, wrinkles and other signs of aging. I didn’t even know procedures like this existed, so I was really excited.
My scars healed great within 1 month. ID Hospital provided stitch removal and some skin care for free, which was really nice. I met my doctor several times for a check up and I still keep in touch with my consultant when I have questions about recovery.
In general I can’t say that it was easy to recover. But the most important thing is that now when the hardest time is in the past I’m over the moon with my result!! I only needed to compare my before / after pics with only 2 weeks difference to understand that it’s all gone really well. I made a collage to show how the saggy skin was tightened.
All I can recommend for those who are looking for a plastic surgery in Korea: go with a friend / family member to support you if you can. My husband supported me a lot while I was recovering after anesthesia, and when I had stitches removed. Apart from psychological aspect plastic surgery in Korea is safe, the result is dramatic and the doctors and hospital staff are great and very caring.

Hi Hababi! You are very brave to travel to another country for plastic surgery!! Where do you live? Did you have a FaceTime consultation with him before the actual surgery? What was the cost for the entire procedure? Did you spend any time in the hospital? I'm having a facelift and neck lift here in Chicago in May! I've already had both of these procedures, but it's time to do it again! You look just beautiful!! Great results, but, you are already a pretty lady.... now even more !! Congrats. I'm counting down the days until my surgery. Hugs, Hababi!
I know this was a few years ago and things are different for different people, but do you mind sharing how much you paid for everything? Also how are your results after a few years? thanks
