Frequently Asked Questions

Q.Are these breast surgery reviews written by real patients?
A.Yes. All breast surgery and breast augmentation reviews at UNE Plastic Surgery are written directly by patients who actually underwent surgery. Each review honestly documents the patient's own surgery motivation, recovery process, pain level, and satisfaction with the results.
Q.How long does breast surgery recovery take?
A.Return to daily activities is typically 3–7 days after surgery; light exercise after 2 weeks; intense workouts and sauna after 6 weeks. Implant shape stabilizes around 3 months, with final results assessed 6 months to 1 year post-op. Individual recovery timelines can be found in each patient's review.
Q.Can I filter reviews by implant brand?
A.Yes. On the Before & After page you can filter by implant — Motiva, Mentor, Sebbin — and by body type, age, incision location, and surgical method.
Q.Are breast revision reviews available separately?
A.Yes. The Breast revision before & after category covers cases and reviews by revision reason — capsular contracture, symmastia, rippling, double-bubble, and bottoming-out. Revision surgery is more technically demanding than primary surgery, so specialized experience is critical.
Q.How do I book a consultation after reading reviews?
A.You can book via online consultation reservation or KakaoTalk 1:1 chat. Phone: +82-2-599-1888 (Mon–Fri 10:00–19:00, Sat 10:00–16:00). Located on the 9th floor of Regen Medical Tower, Sinnonhyeon Station Exit 7.
