catanddog Posted January 21, 2019 Share Posted January 21, 2019 Hi everyone. I am planning on getting plastic surgery mid this year in Korea. I am looking to get my eyes: double eyelid and the outer corners lengthened and the tip of my nose reshaped and the outer nose area smaller and MAYBE an implant on my bridge. So far, I am just browsing places and reading reviews and currently thinking of GNG - Opera - Marble. -Any other recommendations? Any reviews, concerns, advice are greatly appreciated.

dice7074 Posted January 21, 2019 Share Posted January 21, 2019 I'm planning on a revision rhinoplasty and possibly medial epicanthoplasty. JK, GNG, VIP, Hanabi, Dr. Jin, and MVP are on my list. What type of results are you looking for, BTW? Natural or dramatic? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
catanddog Posted January 22, 2019 Author Share Posted January 22, 2019 oooh i want a real natural nose but dramatic eyes. lol how about u? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dice7074 Posted January 22, 2019 Share Posted January 22, 2019 HeeHee... I want natural, too!! I just want to correct my deviated implant and refine the tip. As for my eyes, I have mongolian folds that "sometimes" bother me. LOL Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
catanddog Posted January 22, 2019 Author Share Posted January 22, 2019 are you going for the invisible implant for your nose from your cartilage? i was looking into it~ but im wondering how my ears will look after the cartilage is removed. i have no fold. like 0 fold. completely monolid~ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dice7074 Posted January 22, 2019 Share Posted January 22, 2019 For my first rhino, the surgeon used my ear cartilage and my ear does not look any different - In fact, I can't quite remember which ear he took the cartilage from. What's the invisible implant? I have double eyelids/hooded eyes already... I just have mongolian folds. But I think I read somewhere that if I try to have them removed, it would leave a scar.

peasantduck Posted January 22, 2019 Share Posted January 22, 2019 Hey @catanddog, for dramatic eyes, I would advise against going to MVP. I went there to for 'natural' eyes and to even out my eyes and get a visible double eyelid crease but now my eyes are basically hooded so... not really what I asked for but I guess you can call it natural lol. But I have heard that MVP are conservative with their results but I guess I just didn't think they would go that that for. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fortunecat Posted January 22, 2019 Share Posted January 22, 2019 For hooded eyes, would it help if excess skin is cut away? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
peasantduck Posted January 22, 2019 Share Posted January 22, 2019 Honestly I'm not too sure. I think I might have a bit of excess skin but I still think its the crease they cut thats not high enough. I'm hoping to go to Korea at the end of this year and get a consultation at MVP to see what they have to say about my eyelids. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kyjenner Posted February 4, 2019 Share Posted February 4, 2019 I have heard Opera is good with DES? is that true? I want Incisional, epi and possible ptosis correction. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
aloevil Posted February 5, 2019 Share Posted February 5, 2019 Can u share your story of your first rhinoplasty? Was it deviated right after sit and where did u get it done? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dice7074 Posted February 5, 2019 Share Posted February 5, 2019 I had my first rhinoplasty done in California. The Dr. used my ear cartilage for my tip and an L-shaped silicone implant for my bridge. Yes, my implant has been deviated pretty much from the start... And I have always thought my radix is too high. - Anyway, it really didn't bother me too much because I thought it was a vast improvement from my original nose. But now that I'm older and my face is changing, I think it's time for a touch up. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
aloevil Posted February 5, 2019 Share Posted February 5, 2019 Thanks for responding! I have always wanted to have nasal augmentation, but really scrare of something going wrong. But I think I have now read few stories about deviations bevaube of L-shaped implant. Not sure is that the reason why tho. Another thing that I am worried about is inflammation. Do u have any knowledge of this? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dice7074 Posted February 5, 2019 Share Posted February 5, 2019 I can only speak for myself, but I don't think I swelled up too bad... I do remember the bandage and cast being tight and uncomfortable... and thinking I made the biggest mistake of my life. But I didn't bruise around my eyes, like I have seen in other post-op photos here. I also had a closed surgery, too. - The Dr. went in through my upper lip, so I didn't have a lot of bleeding.
