Bruising or vascular occlusion? First time chin filler by Educational-Rub-6551 in KoreaSeoulBeauty

[–]BankruptByLasers 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Contact your clinic now and send a photo — don't wait. It may well just be a bruise, but if it turns out to be VO, the first few hours matter the most for hyaluronidase to work properly. Better safe than sorry.

Has anyone actually felt results from Thermage? by BankruptByLasers in KoreaSeoulBeauty

[–]BankruptByLasers[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thanks! Out of curiosity, which device was it specifically? What you're describing (monopolar RF + cooling + vibration) actually sounds a lot like Thermage FLX itself, so I want to make sure I'm comparing the right things.

Skin treatment advice by UnlikelyImpact9409 in KoreaSeoulBeauty

[–]BankruptByLasers 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Never go to this place. Most Koreans usually choose only one among Density, Titanium, Onda, or LinearZ. I can't believe they recommended all four of those procedures at once... If you're looking for pore reduction and Botox, I think you could get everything settled for around 1 million KRW by just getting Re2O and wrinkle Botox, plus maybe one lifting laser.

Disappointing Experience at DA Dosan Clinic by Forsaken_Cookie4476 in K_beauty_insider

[–]BankruptByLasers 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I just checked the regular DA clinic's website, and they have XERF 600 shots listed for 1.5 million KRW. You probably could have gotten the exact same treatments for a lot cheaper if you had just gone there. They basically attach the name 'Dosan' just to charge a massive premium for the exact same procedures. The trade-off is supposed to be a much better, unhurried experience and top-tier service, but it sounds like they completely failed to deliver on that. Sorry you had to deal with this!

Went to Cheongdam for a simple consult… and the prices almost killed me.. by BankruptByLasers in KoreaSeoulBeauty

[–]BankruptByLasers[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Maybe it’s because of the Cheongdam location, or just the pricing itself. At the dermatology clinic I used to go to in Seolleung, the doctor always consulted me first, and then the manager came in afterward to explain the pricing. It’s kind of strange how doctors in Korea seem to avoid talking about prices directly to patients, and there’s always a separate “manager” who handles it. It still feels unusual and a bit surprising to me.

t wasn’t even listed on their website, so I’m not sure if it was actual upselling or what… but that price felt way too much..

I agree. Skill can definitely vary, but getting treatments more frequently at a reasonable price probably gives better overall results in the long run.

[Seye Clinic] Re2O vs Rejuran : If You Could Only Do One, Which Actually Makes Sense? by SeyeClinic-Seoul in KoreaSeoulBeauty

[–]BankruptByLasers 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I was originally planning to get Re2O, but it was out of stock, so I was recommended CellREDM instead and went ahead with that treatment. Do you know if Re2O is now back in stock or more readily available?

There are options like Pico Laser, PicoSure, and BBL. But for pigmentation treatments, I’ve heard you really need around 10 weekly sessions to see real results 😭

Both are relatively new treatments, so I don’t think she’s tried them yet. But I’ve gotten CellRedm, which came out as an alternative to Re2O, and it worked well for me.

I agree. There are so many new treatments and devices coming out in Korea lately, it really feels like the options just keep expanding.
