Chin Contour

I deposited the money for chin reduction which was a $8000 USD procedure . then scheduled my surgery out in 6months. During those 6months was no communication between myself, the clinic or Dr. Cho Hyun-woo. the consultation was the same day as the surgery . During the consultation I told the doctor ??? ????? I don’t want anything done to my L-shape jawline or profile and to only smooth out the front anterior chin tip. Because I had a little butt chin indentation. After surgery I could tell immediately he shaved my side profile of my chin which I expressed not to. Because I absolutely loved my side profile. I don’t know if this was all just lost in translation but I even had a translator during the consultation. I went into surgery after a 6-12 minute discussion on what I don’t like about my chin with no facial marking . After surgery I had shortness of breath and had gurgling sounds coming from my lungs for 2 weeks . Also one the nurses removed the face tape so vigorously that it took off some of my cheek skin off, so now I have this dark scab/scar on my face. When the nurse removed my mouth stitches she had tiny scissors and accidentally snipped my gum tissue. As a reflex to the pain I pulled away and she proceeded to leave the scissors in to continue removing the stitches while my mouth filled up with blood. the results It doesn’t look anything natural to my original chin shape it has the appearance of a micro triangular shape. I’m unable to properly smile or speak without my muscle and tissue falling down my neck. I expressed this issue and the doctor told me “it’s just swelling” and to wait for 6 months in the healing process . But as the swelling went down I could tell he shaved my jawline! I asked why?? and he got defensive and won’t answer my questions unless I go to South Korea . But I told him over kakao text why he’s lying I didn’t look different do to just “swelling” he has never apologized for doing the wrong procedure on me. I never consented to V-line surgery .I Only agreed to chin tip reduction. There was nothing wrong with my jawline. I repeatedly told the doctor how this has made me so depressed with insomnia that I’m now on depression medication cause I literally stay up crying late into the night, every single day and avoid looking in mirrors and if I’m with my group of friends I’ll wear a mask when we take photos. Not once has he been sympathetic . I asked the doctor if he’s able to do reconstructive surgery or a chin implant to restore my chin to its original size. He told me no, but come to South Korea so he could inspect it. But why would I go back to the place that botched me and offers no resolution. I love everything the surgeon didn’t touch. I felt the clinic staff are respectful and kind but Overall my experience was rushed, disregarded and I was treated like a customer and not a patient. Also I want warn other foreign women don’t go here!

Mini V-line Post Op 2months

I was teased for having a strong chin. So I planned chin contouring surgery 6 months out in South Korea.I put the $700 down payment. And came back to SK 6months later .But on the day of surgery the doctor only talked with me and my interpreter for 5min in his office! It was way too rushed, he quickly told me the contour design. The out come is horrible, Too much bone was shaved off. Loose skin and I now struggle with smiling and speaking. The nurse ripped off the bandage forcibly off my face and it ripped of my some of my skin so now I’m left with a Permanent dark mark on my cheek. He told me he can’t do a revision . So Im trying to find a reconstruction surgeon. I planned this for half a year and now all like left with is debt and regret . this has lead me into a deep depression I started seeing and therapist and taking Lexapro.
