No More Fringe! Forehead Reduction in Korea

One month ago I had a forehead reduction in ID Hospital and it was worth it for sure. Starting from the beginning, my stay in Korea was very convenient. Id helped me to book a hotel and provided a shuttle bus to the clinic so it made my check up appointments much easier. The hotel was also nice and comfortable , so I enjoyed my stay there. As for the surgery, I chose Korea because I couldn’t find a reliable surgeon for a forehead reduction. I was nervous to travel by myself, but the clinic organized my schedule, from A to Z. I got the information about every single detail: airport pick up, consultation. surgery precautions, what I can expect after surgery and my after care treatments. Id translator was also very nice and kind. The consultation procedure consisted of meeting translator, consultant and doctor, also taking “before” pictures. By the way, when I was waiting for my consultation in the lobby I was kinda surprised because there were soooo many foreigners.
Anyway my only issue was my wide forehead, so consultant, and then doctor, explained about the procedure and method, and also showed me cases of other patients. My forehead was much bigger than recommended 5-6 centimeters, and it made me a perfect candidate for this surgery. I also felt very comfortable and confident with their doctor Lee Kyung Min, he has a very good bedside manner and experienced with forehead reduction surgery.
During my stay in a ward I was provided with pain killers and a compression garment (that was the most uncomfortable part). The scalp area was numb and swollen, but I haven’t experienced any intense pain. To be honest, I was mentally prepared for the worse recovery, but everything is healing nice. Oh, and no shock hair loss as well.
As for now, the scar is still visible, but it’s not a big deal for me. Forehead reduction improved my confidence a lot, and now it’s much easier to take care of my hairstyle without fringe. I hope this review can help anyone who is planning to get a forehead reduction. It’s definitely worth it, if it’s performed by an experienced doctor
