Long post warning..
I went to 3 places in Gangnam and 3 places in Sinsa, and it was interesting because they had distinct characteristics. Another interesting thing was that all 6 places gave slightly different diagnoses. I guess this is
why I have to go to many places. My eye line is asymmetrical, so the right side is higher and my whole body is loose, so incision + eye correction was a must. I was also worried about my sunken eyelids, and
before going to Sinsa, I looked up a lot of articles about eye correction and they helped me, so I'm going to try it too!
Gangnam: We took pictures as soon as we got there and consulted while looking at the pictures, they asked for a deposit (they only give you a discount if you pay a deposit), the wait to see the director was incredibly long
Sinsa: We didn't take pictures, there was no demand for a deposit, and the wait time was short. If
you're going to go to several places in a day, 1 hour and 30 minutes for Gangnam and 1 hour for Sinsa seems enough?
I'm currently thinking about one of the two hospitals in Sinsa...
1. ㅇㄷ(ㅇㅅㅎ)
Incision + eye correction + right epicanthoplasty - 2.9 million won
The director here is extremely prickly and I felt uncomfortable throughout the consultation;; When I said I wanted an in-out line, he asked if I knew what an in-out was and asked me the difference between a semi-out line;; and he talked to me in a way that I shouldn't get surgery, so I asked him if he didn't recommend surgery, and he said why he was asking me that lol. He said it was his decision.. Anyway, he kept talking to me in a bad way. Please note this part.
During the surgery, fat repositioning is possible in the eyelid + an incision is made along the double eyelid line to create a front bangs, but if it doesn't work, an upper team should be done as well
. If you keep the left line the same height and your eye opening force is strong, the line can be buried, so you have to make it a little higher so that the line is visible even when your eyes are open. No other lines are possible besides a semi-out line.
No deposit required
.
2. ㅇㄹㅇ(ㅇㄷㅅ)
Incision + fat grafting + eye correction (one side only, not much difference) 350
In-out is possible, but the line has to be lowered, so your eyes will look smaller. Semi-out is recommended over in-out. Think of it as making your left eye line almost the same as before and making your double eyelid look darker.
In other places, they said fat grafting was not necessary, but this is the only place that said fat grafting, so I passed..
They forced a deposit, so I paid 5 (refundable)
3. ㅇㅇㅇ (ㄱㅎㅇ)
Incision + eye correction 320
The director and the manager are both very kind
. They explained my eye structure exactly after analyzing it. Why do they look asymmetrical? They said it would be good to lower the line and make one side semi-out and the other side in-out.
I thought about it until the end, but I didn't like the line they were creating ㅠ
They said they don't do much else and that they are an eye specialty hospital. They forced a deposit, so I paid 20 (refundable)
4. ㅇㅇㅇ (ㅈㅇㄱ)
Incision (double-line incision, excision if necessary) + eye correction 300
This is the only place that said double-line incision.. But they said they would do it if it seemed like excision would work during the surgery, so I asked them to do it. They will redistribute fat during the surgery, and if necessary, fat grafting. They don't decide for sure before the surgery, but if it's necessary, they do it during the surgery~ It's like that?
They really do a lot of line correction. Open and close your eyes. After doing it several times, while looking in the mirror, he drew the line for me. It seemed like he explained it in the most detailed way
. Since eye correction can look unnatural if you do it too much, you can't do it lightly and not do it at all. Basically, the left line will remain the same and only the high part on the right will be slightly lowered. He kept asking if I had any more questions...
He said that I should visit the hospital 1 day, 3 days, and 7 days after the surgery. It seems like the aftercare will be good!
5. ㅋㄹㅁ(ㄱㅈㅎ)
Incision + eye correction + upper eyelid lift 300
I didn't wait long, but the director came in and drew the line a few times and said, "This will do it~" and then left..ㅜ
He said that semi-out would be better and that I would need an upper eyelid lift. He said that my eyelids were sunken, but not enough to require fat grafting.
This place was fine too, but I'm spending 300 of my own money on eye surgery that I might have for the rest of my life, and he's giving me this insincere consultation..? I wanted to pass so I did.
6. ㅇㅎㅅ(ㅈㅎㅊ)
Incision + eye correction 330
The director pointed out the part that I was worried about and told me first. The director also explained everything thoroughly and seemed to think that the location of the eyebrow bone is very important? (I saw a lot of talk about the eyebrow bone on YouTube) So he said that although the height of both sides is the same, one side looks higher because of the eyebrow. He took a picture with a pad and drew a picture while explaining everything thoroughly and said to lower the current line by 1mm.
All six areas were slightly different so some areas were filtered out and some areas were more worrisome! If you are thinking about surgery, I think it would be good to try out several places.
