Have any of you noticed that Korean plastic surgeons never recommend alar base reduction? I find this very strange, as in other countries, such as the US, it's a very common procedure. Every clinic in Seoul that I've consulted with have always rejected my request for an alar base reduction, always saying the same thing : that once the nose is lifted up, that there will be no need as the nose will become slimmer. Does anyone have any idea why Koreans don't like to perform this operation?

Is it different from alar reduction?

I've been looking for a doctor specializing in rhinoplasty that I want to undergo my surgery with rather than famous clinics. My friend got her rhinoplasty done at Jewelry(?) and she only decided to go there because of some agency she decided to go with and completely damaged her nose. Lesson learned, I decided to do my research on which doctor I want to trust.

So far I've done my research through the SRF (Seoul Rhinoplasty Forum, an official organization that has board-certified plastic surgeon members only) and I've looked through all the doctors and their reputation, but since I can't visit them all, i've dialed them down to this:

Dr. Lee Jun Seong (Trend Plastic Surgery)
Dr. Kang Eun Taek (Migo Plastic Surgery)
Dr. Lee Kyu Ho (O&Young Plastic surgery)

So far these are my top choices, I will do some walk in visits to other clinics I think, and maybe even try out some of the marketing giant clinics like ID or Banobagi, but honestly just for fun and experience since I'm taking of 3 weeks for this trip!

Each of the Doctors mentioned above have different styles as far as I can tell, and I'm leaning more towards natural but since I have just a small nose and want to see what my limits and what the doctors opinions are, Ill be visiting all of them. I'll be going for consultations next week and have them all scheduled, but my friend recently told me about this forum and said that I should look for some real reviews here so I'm just trying to dig out some more info before I meet all of them! After all, I think its most important to feel comfortable and be able to trust the doctors, with consideration of their reputation of course.

I will share my experiences after the face to face consults with them if you are interested!
*Anyone else know anything baout these clinics? Please share! Thanks!

wow! detailed review and I like your result. Congrats on your surgery! The dr seems like know how to do the rhino and your nose at day 7, it seems like no one would tell you that you had a rhino a week ago. I can see swelling bug no obvious sign of post surgery. I thought rhino is the surgery that needs months of recovery. You must be so happy. Can I ask you how much paid for?

Many positive reviews of Namu clinics, haven't found zero negative threads.
You look much better. Congrats!

Yesss exactly what I'm struggling too. Coz I don't feel like having foreign implant in my face. But I heard from my Friend that the Doctors will usually suggest silicon for primary rhino. Cos there will scarring on where u remove the rib and u can switch to rib aft 10-15yrs. While ribs rhino may go wrong too, like shrinking etc, den revision rib would be costly n tough

Did you consult with them online and got quotes? Can you share the price list? I have quoted for my nose but I'm curious about other patients. Thank you.
