  1. I felt super uncomfortable in my own skin. My nose was super high, beaky and crooked. It did not match with my face and didn't look the least bit natural. I couldn't stand it anymore and removed the implant in a year. Terrible experience.
    I think people who KNOW for sure that they want height should go for it. In my case, I was extremely happy with my original side profile and just wanted to work on the wideness from the front. I want to tell OP how important it is to be firm about what she wants. I got greedy and got convinced that I needed a dramatically slimmer nose and alittle height would make me look better but it made me miserable.

    @torchwng If your doc says the result won't be dramatic enough and that you need an implant, RUN!!! These doctors love to stick a massive implant into everyone's noses and give people this super generic rhinoplasty nose that does not look natural because that's all they know how to do. I can tell from your picture that you already have excellent height that's proportional to your face and if a doc isn't willing to give you what you want, he isn't capable of doing it. I honestly wish I'd had someone tell me to be firm when I went to get mine done.
     
  2. Unrelated to your question, but I just wanted to say don't ever let the doctors convince you to put in an implant!!!!!!!!!!! I originally wanted the same thing as you, but got convinced into doing an implant bc I wanted my nose slimmer (I did not care about height and was happy with my height) and they said it wouldn't be much slimmer without an implant. Worst mistake of my life. Stick to your original plan and be firm.

    You already have a great base to begin with, don't let them mess you up bc they want a higher paycheck :<
     
  3. Surely, there are many who had better experiences than I have. I don't doubt the skills of many of the surgeons in Korea. The main reason that I don't recommend Korea is due to the language barrier, so my post is more directed more towards people who aren't currently residing in Korea and plan on making a trip there solely for the purpose of PS.
    It's far easier to speak to the doctor directly in their native language about your concerns rather than to a consultant who is trying to make a sale for commission and have things get lost in translation. If you decide on going to Korea still, bring a friend who speaks Korean or pay for a translator if possible!!

    And be extremely careful of the glowing reviews on here and kakao chats!!!!!!!!
     
  4. Prices for a rhinoplasty in Korea is very, very tempting. However, language barrier is a major drawback regarding it. It's difficult to communicate to the doctor what you want. I say, don't risk it for a cheaper rate, you really get what you pay for and your nose is a major component of your face. I'm honestly paying the price for going to Korea for a cheaper nose job and now I have an uglier, crooked nose that I'll have to spend even more money fixing than it would've costed me in the states to begin with.

    In Korea, you spend more time with the consultant than you even spend time with the doctor who's going to be doing your surgery. I felt like I was moving in and out of a factory and the doctor didn't really care or remember what I wanted. I went to a highly reputable place in Korea yet my results are borderline botched. Do lots of research and don't try to find a bargain, your nose is worth the splurge. In my opinion, steer clear of Korea for something as delicate as your nose. Lots of the people writing on this forum are promoters so please beware.
