Title: Going to Korea for surgery? is it worth it?
Post by: potatojaw19 on March 14, 2020, 07:20:56 AM

Has anybody thought about going to Korea for surgery?
I have been doing some researches and it seems like they do a lot of jaw surgeries there.

Any thoughts?

My issue with Korea is they're predominately experienced in reducing jaw size and a specific kind of skull.

This could just be utter nonsense but I'd rather work with a surgeon who's used to working on similar cases to my own along with the same kind of skull type/shape.

The asian skull is different than caucasian skull. Especially when it comes to males, reducing the size and angularity of the jaw is often times more aestethic for asian men than augmenting. When it comes to females, they want anime-kind of faces: very small chin, small jaws, big eyes, very small nose.

So if you're asian, it could be a smart thing to do to go to asia for surgery. If you're white, I don't know. But it's a good thing if the surgeon understands your phenotype.
