Hi i saw your posts and would also like to view your pictures if possible. I will be in Seoul in April, and i want to hear more about your rhino experience. Thanks. may i have your kaokao ID too?

 

Hi is there a channel for us to ask questions regarding the rhinoplasty. I tried to get the answers through the translator Brian, but had no replies cause I think he's busy.

These are basically the questions I need answered before I even go to Korea for rhino.

1) is there a time stamp as to how long the silicon implant (bridge augmentation) and tip will last?

2) even if the result is not permanent, will it look "normal"
without revision?

This is a huge concern because I'm in my 20s

3) I previously did a partial incision double eyelid surgery in Korea. Will the sutures be at risk of loosening from the rhinoplasty?

I ask this because I see many patients with swollen eyes after the surgery

4) is it possible to do Tiplasty without bridge augmentation?

My eyes were already brought close together by epicanthoplasty: and I think to have them appear even closer with the bridge would not be good for my case.

 

Hello, I am a patient recovered asymmetrically. It took a long time to become symmetric. Almost 1 year for my case. Now my eyes are v even

So no revision. I'm glad I didn't and waited.

 

Thank you for the very honest response WaitingforyouAppreciate it.

Btw if u don't mind sharing, which doc did your primary rhino? Was it Dr Kim from April 31?

 

Yes that's what I mean. The translator Brian, from April 31 told the patient that the tip will only last 20 years before dropping (go read the thread)

The patient didn't mind. But I think I do...

So can someone kindly ask if it's the same thing for the silicon implant used for the bridge? Thanks

 

For those doing surgeries in their 30s, I think it's ok.

But for people in their 20s like me, I think it's a big risk to loose your looks in the 40s, if u know what I mean

 

For anyone doing consultations, could u kindly help ask the doctor whether there is a time stamp to a silicon implant etc.

I read on the April 31 Thread that the tip will only last 20 years (according to the translator Brian) ... Is it the same for the silicon bridge??

I'm a little hesitant when I hear this. It's like having a time stamp to your looks.. With no guarantee of what will happen in 20 years...

I want to age beautifully too.

 

Thank you for the informative review Rhinoceros. Wishing u a speedy recovery

 

Hi Queen of Blades, so the reason for the revision was that the primary surgery for rhino did not give u the dramatic result u wanted, not because Dr Suh botched your nose in any way?

Thank you so much for the info.

Also could u confirm that Dr Suh was unable to correct the upturned appearance? Or Was it because of the swelling then?

 

Hi pebbles. I had partial incision too. (At least that's what the clinic claims , it looked like full to me)
And I think the wound would still be quite bloody at day 3?? I removed mine at day 6. I think it's a little too ridiculous to get them out early. (Half the time)!!I would rather risk missing my flight home

 

Hey zombiejac. I did. I actually posted my before and after pics on the last page. XD I do not wish to repeat the posting again and spam the page with my pics.

 

Hi I was a patient of Dr Kwon. This is the result after 1yr 10m. Not regrets.

 

Hi did Dr Suh do your nose? I thought that he was the best person for the job. Please correct me if I'm wrong.

 

Hi Hammie, are u sure that quote came from Teuim. Cause I did it last year and it was not that high. Bellow 4 mil.

If so, that means there's inflation already. Good thing I did it earlier

 

Hey let me know how it goes. My nose bled easily when I was young and I had to undergo a burning splint treatment to patch a hole (caused by an injury)

 

Hi for those doing primary rhino, could u make a post describing the surgery and your recovery experience?

After a online consult with dr Suh, I'm looking at the following procedures:

1) Nasal bridge augmentation by use of implant or autogenous tissue like dermofat or rib cartilage.-> I'm looking at dermofat, as I feel uncomfortable with a foreign implant

2) Tiplasty by use of septal cartilage.

 

Please make sure that u do a lot of research before undergoing these procedures. Epi alone by itself made a huge significant diff to my face and overall appearance already..

 

Teuim is good and deemed safe by foreigners. I guess the locals there know of other doctors who are just as competent as Teuim, but cheaper.
We foreigners only rely on English forums and word of mouth

 

I have a friend who went to grand too and the same thing happened: it loosened in 2 years. I strongly discourage Grand, the surgeons don't seem to have the competency.

Also, FYI, u should be getting a free revision.

And abt the price: The rate they quoted u is bellow market rate. A competent doctor will charge much more. At least 3,000,000 won

 

Yeah I love my height. Mine was incisional. That's cause I asked Kwon for a very thin one. Actually asked him for infolder

 

I'm back here's an update of my eyes after 1yrs and 4 months.

No makeup.

 

No. I would do them separately. Eyes for dr Kwon is the best. It's been more than 1 year and I think he did a fantastic job.

 

copennhagen: nice eyes. Can see that he really did a great job with parallel on you.

 

Yes never trust what the Koreans say. Do your own research. Forums are the most accurate I feel. Cause it's by word of mouth.

 

Hey Hyung, the tightness comes when your eyes are tired? It's been more than one year. And sometimes after wearing contact lenses for long hours, I feel the tightness too. Been searching for an explanation
