    It's been six months since I had my combination breast augmentation surgery. I had my consultation with Dr. Seul at JW Plastic Surgery in Seoul, Korea.

    A few days prior to the surgery date I had my vitals taken to ensure I was healthy enough for surgery. Really nice they take the extra precautions. I had a TON of questions and my consultant, Jenny, along with Dr. Seul, was gracious in answering every single one of them during my consultation, pre-surgery vital check, and via email.

    I wasn't nervous the morning of surgery as everyone was very communicative and gave me all the details of "what was happening next". Dr. Seul drew the surgery lines on my body himself and he was very good at explaining to me what was planned for my personalized combination breast augmentation.

    My follow-up appointments were anywhere from a few times the week of the surgery, weekly, monthly, then depending on how they were healing, were adjusted appropriately. Every single appointment I was seen by Dr. Seul himself! I was really happy he was able to see my progress himself to give me my tailored recovery aftercare.

    Overall, I'm really happy with the results! I was in good hands with my surgery and I can't recommend enough JW Plastic Surgery Clinic.

    I got my rhinoplasty and double eyelid surgery 6 month ago. Dr. Man Koon Suh was the doctor for my nose and Dr. Hong Dae Kang for my eyes. And I am very very pleased about the results ☺️.

    I was a bit nervous, deciding to get plastic surgery in another country, given that I come from Europe, however JW made my arrival in Korea extremely easy and fluid. When I arrived at the airport, a driver who spoke English was waiting for me at the exit and drove me straight to the hotel. On the day of my departure, a driver also picked me up and drove me to the right gate at the airport which saved me from getting lost there.

    Tina was my consultant and the person I could talk to if I had any troubles. During the consultation, she was very attentive and translated perfectly what Dr. Kang was explaining if I wasn’t certain. Dr. Suh spoke English to me which was also very clear and easy to understand.
    During the whole time Tina was very patient and kind, while explaining everything. When I was nervous on the day of the surgery, she even held my hand in the surgery room, when the anesthesia started to have its effect. That calmed me down a lot and I am very thankful for her checking up on my several times and taking care of me.

    Regarding the procedures, I could not be more satisfied with how Dr. Suh operated my nose. I used to be extremely insecure, especially about my side profile and now I am in love with my new nose! He proposed his ideas of how he would do the procedure on my nose first, namely to straighten it. I told him that I liked the idea but wanted something slightly different, a slightly curved nose-bridge. I showed him a picture of what I meant and he managed to operate my nose exactly the way I wanted it. I used to have a huge hump on my nose and my nose itself used to be big in relation to my face. Now it looks thinner and overall more feminine (and it has the curve which I really wanted :))
    Dr. Suh is literally my life saver. I could not be more thankful. The scars on the outside of my nose are basically invisible now and it looks so natural and cute. If you are considering a nose job, you should definitely do it at JW!

    For my eyes, the procedure was a bit simpler since I only did double eyelid surgery but even so I am satisfied with the results. My eyes look bigger and cuter thanks to Dr. Kang!!

    My overall experience at JW is undoubtedly a 5 star experience and if I ever consider getting another procedure JW would undoubtedly be the first place I would consider.

    I have done liposuction and face fat graft with Dr Chul Hwan Seul in JW, and I am very satisfied with the result, especially my face. Many have told me that I look younger than I used to be. I will definitely come back again next time.

    Did my double eyelid surgery with dr Choi. I waited 2.5 years for the right time to write a review. It looks great and natural. There’s still super faint lines if you look super close but that is because I have atopic dermatitis which dr Choi thoroughly explained to me over and over again. We had to initially delay the surgery because my dermatitis was flaring up and he deemed it to be not appropriate to operate on me at the time. He put me on meds, steroid cream, and a drip and after many stressful days, we did the surgery. No regrets and excellently done and healed. Well informed doctor. Operates on you earnestly and when he deems best and does not operate on you just for the money. Dr Choi is a good surgeon and he can speak decent English.
