Efficient and Fast Clinic

I came to Korea for facial feminization. Logistic setup of clinic is good and fast and efficient. There are many docs to choose from and you have a translator who is amazing as a point person (Jinsoo) and you speak with a consultant (not a physician) before talking with a doctor. I wanted a female doctor but she was on maternity leave in October 2024. So I went with a younger doctor Dr. Choi. I got surgery the next day for forehead lift with endotine, ponytail lift, and fat transfer with PRP treatment of the graft (which cost extra for maybe 10% more graft survival rate after a month) to forehead and cheeks. The postop was smooth. I came back the same day and almost every day for a week to be closely monitored. Pain was well controlled until two weeks, it came back very bad so I had to get more meds for a bit. I also needed a temporary drain due to excess edema. I got the hyperbaric oxygen chamber treatment, which I’m not sure did anything, but I recovered slowly as I had a lot of swelling. I did not get drastic results and think my brows are still too low causing ptosis, but I’d rather have things be subtle than obvious. My forehead fat looks better. I’m grateful for their responsiveness and flexibility of fitting me in. I’m a bit un-enthusiastic about the actual surgical result but, that’s reality with plastic surgery (it’s not magic) and I’m fine with it for now. It went safely and smoothly.
