I had such an amazing experience at ID Hospital.
A little background about me... I’m not new to plastic surgeries... and wanted to get a rhinoplasty revision in South Korea. I did a ton... like ALOT of research and contacted almost every famous plastic surgery hospitals/clinics before flying to Korea. (I wasn’t planning on contacting ID since I know how famous ID hospital was! I was intimidated and scared since I also read the old bad reviews as well!)
I then ask one of my girlfriends who also got some procedures done in Korea for recommendations, and she suggested just to contact ID first. Just to kinda see what they say and how knowledgeable they are! (Trust me after contacting so many hospitals... you see how some places are more knowledgeable than others, and if they are just trying to make as much money as possible) I honestly contacted ID just for research, and trying to get as much information as possible... since this is my face, and I was getting a revision! So I was scared like what if it didn’t come out the way I wanted it to again you know?!

But after getting in contact ID hospitals consultation team I noticed how knowledgeable they are, and answered all my questions perfectly! I felt so comfortable with them doing the procedures! I decided to just do my browbone shaving and fat graft as well. It was the best decision ever!
ID arranged airport pickup and drop off for me. I felt so important the moment I landed in Seoul until the day I left because of ID. I met with my consultant and translators the day of my surgery (who are all so sweet and kind by the way!) I also had my consultation with the doctors as well... and it made me even more comfortable seeing how knowledgeable they were, and telling me not to do certain procedures since I didn’t need them! Which I definitely appreciated!!! After my surgery I stayed 1 night at the hospital (oh and let me tell you! I felt ZERO pain! Just tired from anesthesia) I was instructed to do ALOT of walking the day after surgery to help with swelling. (Also it’s completely normal in Korea to walk around bandaged up and cast still on... haha) and I got my stitches and cast off my nose the 7th day and met with my surgeons. Also got aftercare treatment which I loved! (It’s basically getting a facial and laser to help with swelling and prevent hematoma) on the 14th day I met my surgeons again and got another aftercare treatment before I headed home.
Anyways I understand getting plastic surgery is a very scary process, and sometimes reading reviews can be make it even scarier. Just know that any kind of surgeries come with pros and cons... it’s definitely uncomfortable... and it has a lot to do with how serious you take the after care instructions. I took ALL the instructions seriously! I walked and shopped a lot... didn’t eat salty, spicy, or greasy foods. Took all my meds, and cleaned my wounds.
I was so intimidated by ID and traveling to South Korea alone for the first time. But looking back... I loved every second of it! And can’t wait to go back!!! I’m happy with my results! I’m loving my new Barbie line rhinoplasty, and my browbone is gone! (It was my biggest insecurity!) The fat graft added to the sunken areas of my face makes me look so much younger! Overall my experience at ID hospital has been nothing but amazing! And I wanted to give a special shout out to Clair, Anna, Julie, Jay, Dr. Lee Kyung Min, and Dr. Sohn Ho Sung! You guys are all so amazing and made me feel so comfortable! Thank you again!!!
