I was researching about the facial contouring surgery in South Korea and came across Cinderella Clinic! I felt really comfortable with the services that they had provided for me as i only speak English, and i do not understand Korean. They had an English speaking staff help me throughout the whole process of filling out a chart, meeting the consultants and also meeting the surgeon. When i first went in, the staff helped me with my charts on filling out all my information and also helped to confirm what consultation i wanted to have. When we were in the consultation room, they brought me juice to drink which i was very grateful for! I had to get my x-ray and CT scan checked and after that the consultant came into the room to discuss with me what i wanted to get done. I explained that i wanted a V-Line and a cheekbone reduction surgery done to make my face look smaller and she explained how the surgery would go in detail. After talking to the consultant, the surgeon came in and he was really friendly and helped me figure out what i would really need/not need. He explained to me that the V-Line could be done because i still had a lot of bone that could be shaved but he advised me not to do the cheekbone reduction as my cheeks were not portruding outwards anyway and if i do the cheekbone reduction, my face would look flat and there would be no volume. He explained everything in detail and really took the time to make sure i understood all the processes of the surgery. Because of his detailed explanation, i decided to put in my payment and book a slot for my surgery. Post-surgery, the staff at the clinic really took care of me and gave me everything that i needed, wether it was water or going to the washroom, they were there to help me at all times. The English speaking staff also stayed the night with me to ensure that all the communications between the nurse and me would not be misunderstood. Before getting discharged, i met with the surgeon to remove the blood tube from my mouth and he told me that the surgery went really well, and that i would not have to worry about the results. He was very reassuring so i was a little relaxed. He also reminded me to really do my post-surgery treatments properly to avoid any inflammations or infections. A week later once i could remove all my tapes, i met with the surgeon again and he checked the insides of my mouth and showed me the x-rays and ct scans of the before and after of my face, to show me the differences there are with my bone structure. He did such a clean job, i was so happy about it! Now, it has been 4 months and i can't be happier with what i see as days pass, and the swellings go down! I'm really happy with the results and i am thankful towards Cinderella Clinic for helping me get a nicer jawline! I definitely recommend you to get a consultation at the clinic. I received great service, and detailed explanations of my surgery. I was informed about everything in every step of the surgery!
Clinic has blocked my attempts at communication, they don’t keep records of foreign patient files, can’t get the specifics on what was done to me so I cant provide to my revision surgeon. Had rhinoplasty surgery back in 2016 for $7500AUD (NOT including accommodation, flights, food……that came to $14000AUD). As a foreign non-Asian patient, I HIGHLY HIGHLY recommend you DON’T give this clinic business if you are a non-Asian foreigner. Their surgical practices/techniques aren’t suitable for non-Asian patients (our skin is different and so are our features for which drs in SK don’t have experience), you will most definitely need a revision down the line, it might be 1 year post op, maybe 5 but you will inevitably need another correction surgery. Most foreigners are going to SK because they’re being influenced by the Kpop/Kdrama industry, in my situation, it was because I didn’t trust surgeons in my native country who were also VERY expensive. My case was 8 years, now looking for revision with regulated/board certified surgeons in USA which is around $30,000USD (due to extrusion), most won’t touch my case as I have an implant and apparently nobody reputable in the developed world outside of Korea uses artificial implants. I recommend thinking twice, if you’re flying to SK for surgery because you think it will save you a few bucks (PSYCH….it really doesn’t), chances are you aren’t financially in the position to afford a much more expensive revision, so save yourself the hardship, they will also charge more for any surgery if you’re a foreigner. I give 2 stars because initially I did like my results until swelling subsided, now I look very bird like and unnatural. I also didn’t die on the table so I’m grateful to that also as SK has a few patient deaths at its plastic surgery clinics. Stay with your home country for plastic surgery as you’ll have more recourse if things go awry.
