REAL Girin Plastic Surgery Review
I knew Korea was really famous for their plastic surgery so when I was researching some clinics online, I came across Girin Plastic Surgery on their youtube. This specific video amazed me with their face contouring so I decided to give them a call. It was difficult to find their contact because their English website was renewing at the time but luckily I found them on ig and they gave me their WhatsApp number to contact. Although their response wasn't the fastest, I could feel that they really cared to answer my questions and gave me quotes for all possible surgeries. I booked an appointment with them right away and went to the clinic a month after, in September. They helped me book a taxi from Incheon Airport to Gangnam. It was nice to have English-speaking driver, although his English wasn't all that great. I believe it was alittle cheaper than the normal korean taxi (mine was a van). And because I paid deposits, they gave me discounts on the hotel. It was nice for them to provide me with a hotel that was VERY NICE with 50% discount.
Waiting time wasn't bad (about 10~20mins) and the consultation took about an hour or even more. Although the consultant looked very busy, I had their staff member keep me accompanied ;) I had my blood test and EKG (?) right after the consultation since my surgery was on the day. The coordinator helped me to get changed, wash my face and rinse my mouth before I went into the surgery room. And the last thing I remember from the surgery room is the coordinator assuring me to relax and just sleep. When I woke up, I felt very dizzy and light-headed. The swelling was horrible but there wasn't much bruising. I just had to use the garment and ice pack for the swelling to go down. The clinic also provided me with de-swelling laser treatment which was warming :) 2 weeks after the surgery, I looked somewhat "normal" and was ready to go back to my home. Because I had surgery right after I landed and the swelling was bad during my stay in Korea, I didn't get to travel and explore much but overall experience was great! My after picture is 3 months after the surgery. (Just a few days ago) My face looks a lot smaller, especially the chin. I now really enjoy looking at myself in the mirror xD If you are looking to get face contour done, then I would definitely try consulting with girin.
