The competence, careful attitude and attention to every little detail is what I really liked
I would like to thank my doctor for his careful attention to my difficult situation. The competence, careful attitude and attention to every little detail is what I really liked. Now I am still recovering and the final result is still far away, but I believe that everything will be fine. I would like to mention my coordinator-translator Jena. She is a very nice girl who helped me during my stay. Kind, nice, responsible and competent. She made me feel very comfortable. Thank you very much to the doctor, Jena and the clinic staff for everything. I will definitely recommend to my friends.

The experience for me, in general, was excellent, I would go back to the Dr
I was very pleased with the attention I received from the first day I arrived at the clinic. The interpreter was able to communicate perfectly to the surgeon what I wanted to be done and what my expectations were. I loved the hospitality of the Medical Team, all very attentive, very concerned about whether I was feeling well or not, reminding me of my check-ups, cleaning, suture removal, giving me all the information for the post-operative period, giving me light and oxygen therapy sessions to improve and accelerate the results of my recovery. The clinic is located in a very central place in Gangnam, it is easy to get there. It is very close to the flat that the clinic provides during your stay until the first check-up. The clinic is spacious, well-lit, very clean, with flexible opening hours for post-operative care. The real estate is very comfortable, they have coffee and tea so that you can help yourself. And, they don't keep you waiting. Everything works as scheduled. And, additionally, they provided me with help on how to get around the city, how to get to the tourist attractions, to the shops where they sell skin care products, etc. The experience for me, in general, was excellent, I would go back to the Dr. and I recommend him 100% to those people who are looking for a good clinic where they can have surgery with the full confidence that everything will go very well.
I loved that the Dr. was very patient in understanding exactly what I wanted, thanks to the interpreter I was able to make the Dr. understand everything perfectly. I also liked very much the attention of the medical team that continued to see me the days after the surgery and the warmth and kindness of each one of them. As well as giving me all the instructions I had to follow, they gave me the creams I had to use so that the swelling and bruising would disappear more quickly.
I have nothing to complain about the Clinic, the Dr., the medical team, the interpreter and the care I received before, during and after my surgery. I just think that I should have stayed longer in South Korea to get to see more beautiful places.
About Bookimed service
Bookimed made it easy for me to have a person who speaks my language to assist me whenever I had questions about the different alternatives of plastic surgery clinics that I could ask to evaluate me and give me a quote. When I had already decided on the clinic I wanted to go to, the person who assisted me very kindly answered all the questions I had after I had made my choice. She sent me all the information I asked for about the clinic, the background of the Dr. who was going to operate on me, health permits, health registration of the Dr., validity of his professional title, etc. Everything I needed to make sure I made a very informed decision and knew everything about the clinic, the Dr, the place where I would be operated on, where the clinic was located, where I would be staying from the day of the surgery until a week later and, obviously, how much I was going to be charged. There was only one difference with respect to the initial budget, but it was because once I was in the clinic I added a part of my face that had not been contemplated before. But even so, the final price did not increase too much compared to what I was charged at other clinics in South Korea.

Now two months after surgery, I am quite happy with the shape of my new eyelids
The medical team members are so friendly and helpful. Although I speak zero Korean, I can sense their passion and empathy, which dramatically reduced my anxiety to go through the surgery. They are very supportive from the right beginning to the end when I left Seoul. And big thanks to the assistance from Yena, who provides detailed before and after care instructions rather than just working as an interpreter. Now two months after surgery, I am quite happy with the shape of my new eyelids. They look much younger and alert.

He did a good job on my surgery and I recommend him for anyone seeking plastic surgery in Korea
The beginning of surgery was tough, doing the upper and lower Blepharplasty with shots and some pain reliever in my IV and I needed something a little stronger but I understand how careful the Dr was because I was under full anesthesia the minute the eye surgeries were done. The results are looking amazing and the swelling decreased daily. I’m not sure what oral pain meds I was on after surgery but it was perfect for me because I don’t like to be on very many pain meds and when the meds ended it was the time I usually stop taking any pain meds. I’m pleased with the results I’m seeing so far and it’s only 3 weeks post-op. Lilith and the the girls were amazing, Lilith helped be to the hotel nearby after my 2 day stay at the surgical hospital and she helped me with exchanging my money to pay my hotel bill because my Credit Union was blocking my use of my credit card. I recommend anyone from outside of Korea to make sure they have an account with a larger bank before getting surgery in another country. I can’t say how much I needed and got reassurance from the staff with removal of my stitches and just how conscientious the staff was that I would be as comfortable as possible. Dr Kim Yong Woo always asked if I had any questions and spend the time before and after surgery to make sure all my questions were answered. He did a good job on my surgery and I recommend him for anyone seeking plastic surgery in Korea.
I liked the Bariatric chamber to lie in, It’s a little strange feeling but I could feel it affecting my swelling and it helped the edema and bruising to decrease quickly. Also the staff was so wonderful to help me through uncomfortable procedures of removing of my stitches. I was a little skeptical about being moved right after surgery because I usually have vomited without an oral motion sickness pill but I don’t every remember being moved back to my bed in the hospital and had no nausea so I like the anti-motion sickness med that is given intravenously during surgery.
I don’t have an answer but I needed a stronger pain medication or more pain shots with the Blepharoplasty’s but I’m not sure what the answer is.
About Bookimed service
I talked more about the surgery than using Bookimed but I had a hard time at first using a third party to place a down payment on my surgery but when I looked online how that is the normal procedure for surgical procedures in another country I was assured and unfortunately my bank was making it hard for me because you need a larger bank than a credit union to help get legit payments through so I appreciate the staff at Bookimed being so patient with me because it took almost one week to get the down payment through.

I liked having an interpreter with me during the visit. That surprised me in a good way, for I wasn't expecting that service on the day of. The staff was extremely friendly and allowed me to sit in a different room to be more comfortable while reading and waiting for my operation.

What Are the Methods of Gynecomastia Surgery in Republic of Korea?

There are two procedures for gynecomastia surgical treatment in Republic of Korea — liposuction and breast reduction surgery. 

If the cause of enlarged male breasts is lipopexy (excessive fat deposition), specialists perform ultrasonic liposuction. Using special tools, the surgeon dissolves the fat using ultrasound through a 1-cm incision, and then removes excess body fat.

The breast tissue overgrowth usually goes along with an excessive amount of fat in the gland. So surgeons carry out liposuction to remove excess fat, and then perform breast reduction surgery to remove excess breast tissue through small incisions in the areola.

The gynecomastia surgery {inCountry} is performed under general anesthesia and takes 1-2 hours. After the operation, the patient stays in the hospital for 1 day.

What Are the Indications and Contraindications for Surgical Treatment of Gynecomastia in Men?

The gynecomastia surgery is performed according to the patient’s personal desire or in case of a malignant tumor development. Find out more about the criteria for gynecomastia surgery here.

The intervention has no contraindications, except for general ones — diseases of the cardiovascular system, tuberculosis, infectious diseases at the acute stage, decreased immunity, etc.

What Is the Process of Gynecomastia Surgery in Republic of Korea?

Steps of the gynecomastia removal are:

  1. A doctor makes a small incision in the lower part of the areola, and excises the mammary gland without the surrounding tissue damage.
  2. Fatty tissue is removed (if necessary).
  3. A specialist installes the drainage and sutures the wound.
  4. The removed material is sent for histological analysis to exclude oncological processes.
  5. A patient visits a doctor for a second appointment in 1-2 days after the operation for drainage removal and the patient’s health monitoring.

The gynecomastia surgery  in Republic of Korea is minimally invasive and lasts 1-2 hours. The patient is under general anesthesia during the procedure.

How Long Is the Recovery Period after the Surgery?

After the gynecomastia removal in Republic of Korea, the patient takes painkillers to reduce pain. In-hospital stay takes 1 day. The sutures are removed in 10-14 days after the procedure. 

After discharge, the patient may gradually return to everyday activities. Within 7 days it is not recommended to drive a car and go in for sports. 

For 2 weeks after the enlarged male breasts removal, it is necessary to wear special compression underwear to reduce swelling.

Generally, the recovery period takes 6 weeks

What Are the Risks of Enlarged Male Breasts Removal?

n general, the gynecomastia surgery rarely causes complications and is characterized by a high degree of effectiveness and safety. However, as any other operation, gynecomastia removal can cause some risks:

  • scarring 
  • skin discoloration 
  • chest or nipples deformities.
  • anesthesia-related complications.

What Is the Best Place for Gynecomastia Surgery?

Men who want to get rid of enlarged breasts often do not exactly know where the best option for having gyno surgery is. Such criteria as price and gynecomastia surgeon skills remain crucial for picking the place to experience this procedure. According to Bookimed patient reviews who have already undergone the procedure, the clinics located in such countries offer the best price-quality ratio options:

  • Turkey 
  • Mexico
  • Some European countries (Poland, Lithuania, Ukraine). 

The average cost of male breast reduction surgery in these countries is $2,500-$3,200. Local gynecomastia doctors promote their skills, participate in international conferences, and are frequently board-certified.

How to Choose a Gynecomastia Surgeon?

The right choice of a gynecomastia surgeon determines the outcome and possibility of side effects. Due to this, it is essential to pick a doctor who will manage a procedure well. Always check these items while exploring a top gyno surgeon:

  • Practice. Doctors specialized in male breast reduction should have at least 3-5 years of performing gyno surgeries. So, always check a surgeon’s CV to find out how long they have practiced.   
  • International training. Gynecomastia removal doctors who want to stay aware of the latest developments and techniques in plastic surgery participate in international conferences and training to improve their skills.
  • Reviews. Real patient feedback is the most trustworthy source to get reliable info about a doctor's professionalism and service level in the clinic. However, check the patient reviews on the independent sources to avoid fake ones.
  • Before and after photos. Always ask a surgeon to provide before and after photos of patients who have already undergone gynecomastia surgery. After reviewing such images you will estimate how you will look after intervention.
  • Cost. Low prices may be attractive, but be wary of such tempting offers: some underqualified doctors often ask less fee to get new clients.
