A Journey of Teenage Plastic Surgery in Korea

Written by Seoul TouchUp. Posted in Asian Plastic Surgery, Medical Tourism Korea

Although you may have noticed that the majority of plastic surgery patients are adults, this trend is now changing and more and more teenagers are looking to get certain procedures done. This is especially becoming evident in South Korea, a country that has accepted the plastic surgery trend for all people and is likely considered to be the friendliest place to get plastic surgery done in the world.

TEENAGERS HAVE FREEDOM IN PLASTIC SURGERY IN KOREA

Teenagers have always been pressured into reconsidering their plastic surgery wishes for as long as possible before having them done. Most are even encouraged to wait to their late twenties just so they can be ‘sure’ that this is something that they would like to have done on their bodies. But while the West is still very stingy on its opinions of plastic surgery and will quickly ridicule almost anyone who has plastic surgery done, Korea has become very welcoming in this regard, and the plastic surgeons in Korea understand just how important self-love and self-esteem are at this vulnerable age in a young person’s life.

ZE:A’s Hwang Kwanghee Stands Proud Behind His Plastic Surgery Procedures

Written by Seoul TouchUp. Posted in Korean Plastic Surgery

If you have ever felt insecure about the way you look, and you probably have done so at some point in your life, you are definitely not alone. No matter how much we try to pursue the world that physical beauty should never be a primary factor to distinguish a person’s worth, we are still failing to convince the majority in believing the same thing. You cannot choose the way that you will look when you are born, and as you age, your appearance will change due to both genetic and environmental factors. And yet, even though so many of us have the same feelings of insecurity and a hope that one day we can change and be happy about how we look, we tend to condemn others who have gained the courage to undergo plastic surgery and to pursue the look that they have always been hoping for. Such an unhealthy attitude towards the way that other people live their life is preventing everyone from achieving their goals, and this is especially true in the world of Korean idols. With careers that place them continuously under the spotlight and free scrutiny from everyone around them, it is not wonder that they can often suffer from low self-esteem. ZE:A’s Hwang Kwanghee is only one example of an idol who didn’t feel like he quite fitted in in the idol world, and who decided to be brave about his decision and to change what he didn’t love about himself.

Plastic Surgery After Childbirth

Written by Seoul TouchUp. Posted in Body Sculpting

Childbirth is one of the most beautiful things in the world and one of the most treasured times for all parents. However, the aftermath can be very different for women depending on their initial body look, genetics, size of baby and how the delivery went. While some women recover relatively quickly and don’t look much different from how they once did, other women go through much more drastic physical changes, many of which cannot be reversed by simply eating a healthy diet and going to the gym.

COMING TO TERMS WITH A NEW BODY AFTER CHILDBIRTH

Despite the beauty of having a child, women who have experienced a serious change in their appearance after childbirth must also come to terms with the way their body looks now. It is very unlikely that you can be left unfazed by a change in your weight, skin and muscle structure after birth, and it is even more difficult if you happen to be one of those cases where the change is likely to be permanent. While many people may try to influence you into thinking that you should simply accept the way you now look, the truth is that they are not inside your skin and cannot feel the emotional impact that childbirth has on a woman. New clothes and new physical challenges are only a few things that become very different after childbirth, but that doesn’t mean that there is nothing to be done. Korean plastic surgery is a wonderful chance to go give your body a makeover, as little or as big as you want, and it will allow you to enjoy your life with confidence and not with compromise.

Written by Seoul TouchUp. Posted in TouchUp Updates

Seoul TouchUp is Now on the New York Times

The New York Times article titled "Plastic Surgery Tourism Brings Chinese to South Korea", acknowledged the credibility of our marketing materials. It goes into detail about the popularity of Korean plastic surgery in both Korea and overseas. This is especially the case in China, where young Chinese women are enhancing their bodies for personal and professional reasons. As for Korea, it is almost part of a growing-up ritual that can be seen in the culture, with a society where competition and image is highly valued above all else.

Botox is Becoming Very Popular Among Men

Written by Seoul TouchUp. Posted in Anti-Aging Treatment

There’s little to no doubt that you’ve heard a lot about plastic surgery over the years, but you have probably also almost always associated it with women. This is partly because of personal choice, but also partly because women have always been expected to look their best at all times, and their physical appearance often affects both their private and business life. South Korea also has seen a rise in male plastic surgery, and botox is one of the quickest yet most effective treatments of all. Stay tuned because you will be happy to hear, especially if you are a gentleman, that men are now also free to explore the domains of plastic surgery if they wish to do so.

Male Botox

DIFFERENCE BETWEEN MALE AND FEMALE BOTOX SURGERY

Although you certainly have noticed that most of the plastic surgery procedures have the same name for both men and women, they are carried out very differently. Men have a very different body and tissue structure than women, which means that the botox injection will be created with slightly different ingredients that would better suit your skin and that will later be easier to heal. On the whole, men tend to have tougher skin, so the botox injection will likely be of a higher consistency than it would be for the female counterpart. South Korea offers more customized solution for male customers because the demand is unusually high. Getting botox in Korea will help your reduce the size of your wrinkles and create much gentler features on your face, making you look younger and fresh.

AREAS WHERE YOU CAN EXPECT THE BIGGEST IMPROVEMENT WITH BOTOX

Botox is one of the first and most popular procedures that men are opting for. They usually choose to do it in the areas between the eyebrows, the corners of the eyes, and to reduce forehead wrinkles. The amount of botox that is done depends entirely on you and how much of your appearance you wish to alter, but this still remains as one of the least invasive ways to freshen the look of the face, and one that has the shortest recovery time of a couple of hours. And the cost to get botox for men? In Korea, the price does not differ between genders because it is determined on the dosage needed for each patient individually.

HOW YOU SHOULD PREPARE FOR THE BOTOX PROCEDURE?

Before the actual procedure takes place, you should consult the doctor about which part of the face you would like to apply botox to. The doctor will then calculate the accurate dosage, help you choose the right type of botox that should be used, and will then apply the procedure when you are comfortable. It only takes a few minutes to inject the botox into the designated areas, and you will be free to go home right after the injections. This is why it can be a great plan for tourists who want something done fast without worrying about having a swollen face in Korea.

You may notice that immediately after the procedure some areas of your face will initially look plump, but as the botox sets, the true changes will start to take effect from three to seven days. You are not required be under any anesthesia for botox, as long as you can handle a few needle stings, because there is virtually no pain associated with this procedure. Although there are no strict health rules prior to this procedure, it is still of course important that you are in the best possible health condition and that you are not allergic to any of the ingredients found in botox injections. The doctor will check this before administering the botox injections to you.

LOOK FOR THE RIGHT BOTOX DOCTOR IN SOUTH KOREA

You probably won’t just walk into a clinic and ask for botox injections on the spot, but the amount of research you do before the procedure really could alter the end results. As you are aware, Korean plastic surgeons and dermatologists are so experienced in botox that they see it as a very minor procedure. Also please be cautious about non-certified doctors in Korea. Even though there isn’t much pain with botox, why would you ever want to sit through it twice if you could get a great look done the first time?

Of course, Seoul TouchUp can arrange this service but you could also do it yourself since it is such a minor treatment. Make a few calls to the clinics that seem like the best pick for you and ask them about the procedure. Even without prior knowledge about botox, you will be able to distinguish between the experienced and not experienced. Again, don’t fall for cheap prices because there might use a different brand for your botox. If you notice that they are at any point annoyed with your questions or that they don’t really have a good answer to give you, it is likely that they are not really ready for international customers. Botox is not serious, but it is still a medical procedure that will have an effect on your appearance, and you really do want it to be a good effect!

WHAT’S INSIDE THE LITTLE BOTOX BOTTLE?

Botox Botulinum Toxin Type A

The most typical botox injection contains Botulinum toxin type A, which is a bacterial toxin that prevents your muscle nerves from functioning normally. This is why you often see some pretty funny expressions on the faces of people who use too much botox to the point where they constantly look either surprised or just too happy about life!

But don’t be discouraged by there mistakes, because a normal dose of botox will not affect our features to the point where you can no longer move your muscles! What this little Botulinum cocktail does is prevents your muscles from receiving too much nerve stimulation in the sense that fewer or no wrinkles will appear when you make facial expressions. Contrary to popular belief, botox does not eliminate wrinkles as wrinkles, it just prevents them from being visible. Botox will not reduce the age of your skin as it does not have any effect on that, it only affects the way that your muscles align when you move your face. Special medical tourism agencies have now developed detailed plans for patients who wish to travel to Korean to get this procedure done.

WHY BOTOX MAY HAVE AN EFFECT ON YOUR CAREER?

With the competitive market of almost every business bursting through the roof with new and enthusiastic potential employees, you will need to be on your toes to continue successfully in your business even if you have many years of previous experience. The truth is that your physical appearance has a lot going for you career wise, and more so than you give it credit for. Having an attractive picture on your resume can really help you develop in your career, which is why so many men are now opting for various facial procedures to help them achieve this goal.

Many companies wish for their employees to look presentable at all times so that potential clients would feel more at ease with them and would be more likely to sign new deals and partnerships with the company. Difficult aging where the skin begins to sag and various parts of the body no longer look as youthful as they once did is also something that affects you as a man. While it was previously thought that men tend to look better as they age this is, in more modern times, no longer the case, and younger men are now more likely to receive promotions and be sent on business trips that once would have only be given to you as someone with many years of work in the company.

This is where botox is a simple solution for what is becoming a growing problem for older men. A successful botox procedure will hep you look younger, brighter, and more alter. It will give your face a healthier glow that will no longer be affected by aging. When you choose the areas of your face where you wish to apply botox, always bear in mind that your eyes are the biggest giveaway for tiredness and age, so make sure that you definitely include the wrinkles around the eyes on your list. Additionally, botox applied to your forehead will have an all-round impact on the rest of your face, because the wrinkles on your forehead are very noticeable with any larger facial expressions.
