The Bookimed coordinator, Tatyana, was very informative, present, and patient; she did her best to reassure me and answer all my questions. I am still in early recovery from my revision rhinoplasty, but I'm feeling better than expected. The main issue was correcting a crooked nose but I also had a septoplasty for better breathing and a tip plasty for cosmetic reasons. The surgeon who personally handled my consultation and surgery took the time to explain what went wrong with my previous procedure and was honest about what realistic results I could expect. Aftercare has been good. The clinic has stayed in touch, provided a clear aftercare guide, and is easy to reach. There were also no additional expenses on top of what I paid the clinic. My advice for anyone considering this is to always ask if they can provide free accommodation.

Even though I’m still in the early stages of healing, the traditional incision lines are already barely noticeable, which is a huge relief. The surgeon and staff were excellent throughout. Based on the care I received and the initial results, I am very pleased with my choice of clinic. Gia my coordinator was lovely and very helpful. Huge thank you to all the medical, nursing and admin staff. 🙏🙏🙏🫰🫰"},"order":{"operation":{"id":26,"name":{"en":"Blepharoplasty (Eyelid correction)"}}},"clinic_info":{"id":5006,"name":"SAERO Plastic Surgery","alias":"saero-plastic-surgery","flags":[{"name":"has_active_agencies","value":true},{"name":"is_hide","value":false}]},"created_at":"2026-05-16T09:29:30.118+00:00","flags":[{"name":"is_approved","value":true},{"name":"has_client_feedback","value":true},{"name":"is_anonymously","value":false},{"name":"is_notification_sent","value":false},{"name":"would_recommend","value":false},{"name":"coordinator_mentioned","value":true}],"summary":{"positive":{"en":"The surgeon and staff were excellent throughout."}}}],"meta":{"total_count":21,"total_pages":1}},"offers":{"cards":[],"metadata":{"total_count":0}},"listingTexts":{"entity_texts":{"txt_country":{"text":"<p class=\"bm-h1-lead\">Gynecomastia surgery in the Republic of Korea costs _op_860_price_from_ to _op_860_price_to_, about _price_percent_discount_% less than the US average of _price_compare_US_average_ (Bookimed data, _date_).

Results are typically permanent if surgeons excise the primary glandular tissue and patients maintain a stable weight without using anabolic steroids.</p> <ul> <li><strong>Incomplete excision:</strong> Residual glandular tissue can regrow if not sufficiently removed during the initial procedure.</li> <li><strong>Hormonal triggers:</strong> New growth may occur from steroid use, specific medications, or untreated endocrine disorders.</li> <li><strong>Weight fluctuations:</strong> Significant weight gain causes remaining fat cells to expand, creating a recurring appearance.</li> <li><strong>Surgical technique:</strong> Combining glandular excision with VASER liposuction provides the most stable long-term chest contour.</li> </ul> <p><strong>Bookimed Expert Insight:</strong> Data from top Seoul clinics like JK Plastic Surgery and VG Plastic Surgery shows that recurrence risks drop significantly when surgeons use a combined approach. While liposuction alone costs less, around _op_1270_price_from_, it often leaves the hard gland behind.
