Plastic surgery is becoming increasingly popular. In this article, I will share my personal experience of getting double eyelid surgery and rhinoplasty at JW Korea Hospital in Vietnam.

Why Choose Vietnam for Plastic Surgery?

• Affordable Costs: Compared to South Korea or Thailand, the cost of cosmetic surgery in Vietnam is much lower while still ensuring quality. I paid only $3,600 for both procedures.
• Diverse Services: Clinics in Vietnam offer a wide range of services, including double eyelid surgery, rhinoplasty, chin implants, liposuction, etc.
• Language is Not a Barrier: Some clinics have English-speaking staff, making communication easier for international patients.

Why I Chose JW Korea Hospital?

• A branch of JW Clinic in Korea: JW Vietnam is advertised as an official branch of JW Clinic in South Korea.
• Well-trained doctors: The head doctor was trained in Korea, ensuring expertise in cosmetic procedures.
• Good online presence: Their official website and YouTube channel looked professional and reliable.

However, my actual experience had some highs and lows that are worth noting.

Pre-Surgery Preparation

• I sent my photos and requests via email in English, and the clinic responded with detailed pricing and procedures.
• They advised me to stay for two weeks for post-surgery care.
• I booked Silverlands Sakyo Hotel for a comfortable recovery experience.

The Surgery Day – A Memorable Experience

Double Eyelid Surgery

• Local anesthesia was applied; the injection was slightly painful, but after that, I felt nothing.
• I was fully awake during the procedure, and it was completed quickly.

Rhinoplasty

• A nightmare experience: I assumed I would be under general anesthesia, but I remained awake the entire time.
• I could feel the doctor hammering my nasal bone to remove the hump. The sensation was extremely unsettling.
• Towards the end, the anesthesia wore off, and I could feel the stitches being sewn—it was painful enough to bring tears to my eyes.

Post-Surgery Recovery – 14 Days of Healing

The First Few Days

• Heavy nosebleeds immediately after surgery, but I was advised not to apply pressure to avoid reopening wounds.
• Swelling was present but not overly painful.
• Received daily IV injections for swelling reduction.

One Week Later

• Nasal splints were removed, bringing significant relief.
• Stitches remained in my eyes, nose, and ear (as ear cartilage was used for the nose job).
• I could go out normally while covering the stitches with a mask.

After Two Weeks

• All stitches were removed, and healing progressed well.
• Slight swelling remained in the eyelids but was not too noticeable.
• The nose looked great, with minimal swelling despite the intense procedure.

Results After 6 Months – Honest Review

• Eyelids: A noticeable improvement, though there is a slight extra fold underneath the double eyelid, likely due to the sequence of incisions.
• Nose: Looks fantastic—straight, natural, and with almost invisible scars.

• Good surgical results—my nose turned out great, and scarring was minimal.
• No major complications post-surgery.

Final Verdict – Should You Get Plastic Surgery in Vietnam?

If money is not an issue, South Korea may offer a better overall experience with premium services. However, if you want to save money, Vietnam is a solid option—as long as you can handle being awake during rhinoplasty.
