Surgery day + recovery

Finally!!!

When I arrived at LIFE I was greeted by a temporary English consultant. LIFE got her from another hospital so I would have someone with me the day of surgery and for my first checkup. I was given a locker for my bag and then got changed. After washing my face and disinfecting my mouth they took my pictures again. I then had one final consultation with Dr. Kim. We went over everything I wanted and he drew correction marks on my face.

The consultant then lead me into the surgery room and the nurses began preparing me for surgery. I actually don't even remember falling asleep...but I know I was at some point because I have no memory of them doing stuff to my nose. I think I woke up around half way through the surgery? Pretty sure I actually FELT them inserting the chin implant through my mouth, at one point that had to drug me up more! It wasn't that bad tho whatever pain I felt quickly went away. After what felt like an eternity I heard the English consultant talking to me. Surgery was finally over. She helped me up and walked me to the recovery room.

In-person consultations

Back from Korea!

Okay, so this trip had a really bad start. My plane got delayed so I had to try and switch all my consultations to the next day last minute. When I finally arrived in Korea the airline forgot to put my suitcase on the plane...so all I had was my carry on.

They delivered my suitcase to me the next day (at midnight) but still, I had to do the consultations in my dirty travel clothes!!

1) LIFE Plastic Surgery

As mentioned previously LIFE was my first choice. My appointment was at 10 but I got lost (a taxi driver actually dropped me off at the wrong spot) I should have just used the subway from the beginning, anyway I finally reached but just my luck their English consultant isn't there anymore. Since my appointment got delayed, and it wasn't guaranteed I would make it to this one either, they didn't have time to find a temporary consultant for me.

3 days

In 3 days I'm going to be in Gangnam.

I dunno, like I haven't really fully processed everything yet? The past 5 weeks have been pretty crazy so I didn't really have a chance, I only started packing today.

On July 1st I launched a website with my friend which has eaten up a lot of our time. It's an entertainment news website too so we basically always have to be alert and ready to update. I really wish I could spend more time on it but work has been killing me. Thankfully I'll be back to normal part-time hours when I return from my trip so I can finally put more energy into the site.
