How to Adjust to Your New Plastic Surgery Look

Written by Seoul TouchUp. Posted in Asian Plastic Surgery, Korean Plastic Surgery, Plastic Surgery News

Plastic surgery can be a very fulfilling time in one’s life, a chance that allows you to create a new start for yourself with a new look that erases complexes and increases self-confidence. And while many people will tell you just how much of a positive impact plastic surgery can have on your life, not many people will tell you how to adjust to this new change. What happens when everything is over and healed and you take a first look in the mirror of your new self? Do you know how to react to this change? Are you prepared enough for it to embrace it at that very moment? Not likely. So here are some things that you should take into account after having plastic surgery, and perhaps some valuable advice on how to handle and embrace this new chapter in your life.

ADJUST TO THE NEW FEELINGS

Regardless of how small or big your procedure was, the area of your body that was changed will feel different. There is no denying this. It doesn’t depend on whether the procedure was done by a professional or not but simply by the fact that the part of your body that was changed will now not only look different but will also feel like a new part of your body. This is particularly true for more extreme procedures like breast implants, but is also evident in smaller procedures as well. It may feel tighter, heavier or produce new sensations. This is not a bad thing of course, but it is something that will take a little time to get used to.

Do not try to instantly become comfortable with this new change by buying all new clothes and creating a whole new lifestyle for yourself. You must first become emotionally connected to this now improved part of your body and welcome it as your own. Many professionals suggest that meditation techniques can greatly help with this, but if you don’t want to go as far as serious meditations, just take a few moments every day to calm yourself and to focus all of your attention on this particular area. Focus on how it feels when you move your body slowly, how it feels when you don’t move at all, and how it feels when you run. This may not seem like something that people would be expected to do after plastic surgery, but it will definitely help you to get used to the change in a much shorter period of time. At this point, the way you feel about this new change is actually more important than the way it looks. You need to become physically comfortable with it before you can enjoy it on an aesthetic level. It must become so natural that you eventually reach a point where you no longer remember how you felt before you had this change done.

Planning Your Plastic Surgery in Korea

Written by Seoul TouchUp. Posted in Asian Plastic Surgery, Korean Plastic Surgery

This article assumes that you have already made a decision on which procedure you would live to have done and that you have also chosen, or almost chosen, the doctor and the clinic where you wish to go. Advice on these two things will be provided in another article, but for now let’s focus on how to actually plan the trip, what you need to know before you leave for Korea, and what you need to know once you have landed in the country. Plastic surgery in Korea for those coming from abroad is in some ways similar to a holiday trip, but because of the additional elements of it actually being for medicinal reasons, there are many more things that you need to prepare for before hand.

PREPARE ALL THE PAPERWORK AND VISA IF NEEDED

You will need to prepare all the paperwork that you need for the clinic. This includes any previous medical conditions or surgeries, which you can get from your own doctor. Try to collect as much information as possible on your medical history as this will greatly help your doctor in Korea to understand your body better and to choose the right approach for your procedure. Pay special attention to any allergies that you may have and make sure that you have them all written down and prepared, because some people may actually be allergic to certain medicine.

Once you have collected all of your medical paperwork, you will need to prepare your passport and your visa. Of course, if you already have a Korean passport or if you come from a country that doesn’t have tourist visas for Korea then you won’t have to worry about this, but do still make sure that you have everything prepared well in advance before your journey. There is no need to place yourself in a situation where you will become frustrated, because you need to be as relaxed and stress-free as possible for your procedure.

BOOK YOUR ACCOMODATION WELL IN ADVANCE

There are many great websites where you can look for a place to stay in Korea, and since you will be coming for surgery, your clinic will very likely be located in the Gangnam area.

Can You Be Too Old for Plastic Surgery?

Written by Seoul TouchUp. Posted in Anti-Aging Treatment, Asian Plastic Surgery, Korean Plastic Surgery

You will frequently hear people discussing whether or not someone is too young to have plastic surgery done, or how much thought needs to be put into it before you make your final decision. But what you won’t often hear people saying is that people who are in an older age period also have an abundance of procedures to choose from if there are any features of their appearance that they wish to have changed. Your age should never be any kind of limit towards a better life, and if you believe that a plastic surgery procedure is something that will make you happier and feel more alive, then it is a choice that you can make with assurance that there are many professional doctors that will be able to help you on your journey.

Procedures That Don’t Take A Thousands Miles

Written by Seoul TouchUp. Posted in Asian Plastic Surgery, Korean Plastic Surgery, Plastic Surgery News

South Korea may be the best place in the world to get plastic surgery done? Quite possibly. Its abundance of specialists, its supportive environment, and years of research and development have made this country a serious hot spot for those who are seeking to undergo a plastic surgery. However, despite its many advantages, it is not necessary to take this long journey to South Korea in order to get a specific Korean plastic surgery done. Although this may be true for more serious procedures, your own country will likely be qualified enough for smaller ones, and you will save quite a bit of money on the travel costs in the process.

WHY PEOPLE GO TO SOUTH KOREA IN THE FIRST PLACE

The most frequent answer to this question is that people will choose to go to South Korea specifically to have a procedure done if it is a complex and difficult procedure for which they need the highest possible plastic surgery specialist, and Korean surgeons understand how to create the beauty of Asians. Korean clinics are equipped with special recovery rooms which specifically cater to these kinds of patients, and which allow them to recover in peace for as long as needed until they are ready to return to their everyday lives. However, while these are certainly a valid reason to travel to South Korea for your surgery, not all procedures are this complex, and they certainly don’t all require a long period of recovery after they are done.

Dealing with Criticism on Plastic Surgery

Written by Seoul TouchUp. Posted in Korean Plastic Surgery

Society seems to always feel very free to comment on other people’s choices in life, and not comment in ways that would be productive and/or supportive, but rather with much negative criticism and preaching. Plastic surgery is an especially sensitive topic, and one that has not yet been accepted so easily by everyone. Ignorance, a lack of research, and also a lack of general understanding for other people is leading many to spew hate on people who have undergone plastic surgery. Although we are starting to see some changes in this behavior, it seems as though it will take quite a few more years before we can stand shoulder to shoulder with each other and fully support our own choices in life.
