male-rhino Posted November 1, 2019 Share Posted November 1, 2019 Hi guys, I am an asian-canadian who is looking to get some rhinoplasty and alar reduction done. I dislike the size of my nostrils as well as the width of my nose relative to my mouth. I hate how wide my nose gets when I smile. I was wondering what are the top (most well known, most reputable, best results etc) clinics/surgeons in South Korea. I've done some research on my own but haven't arrived to any concrete conclusion so I thought I would start my own thread . Thanks so much!

imarealbear Posted November 3, 2019 Share Posted November 3, 2019 Hey I'm in the same situation as you. Im also asian canadian and a guy as well. Finding the best clinic is the hardest, but the ones on my list are Nana, Uvom, View, Hanabi, and Premier. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
petercc Posted November 4, 2019 Share Posted November 4, 2019 my name is petercc and Asian-American, male. I did the exact same procedures - rhinoplasty and alar reduction in South Korea in early August (3 months ago). I did the same exact detail, exhausting research that you are discussing and in my past comments on this forum, all the populars clinics are very good. I spent almost 4 months researching hospitals and ended up spending 20 days in Korea with almost the first week just going from one clinic to another before choosing one. I ended up shortlist two clinics, Banobagi or GNG hospital, in the end choosing the latter and very satisfied with the results. why GNG? although I was truly impressed with Banobagi and they are very popular with the locals. GNG had more foreigners and their reputation for rhinoplasty is very good. While I was recuperating from post surgery, I hated sleeping or laying in bed, so I prowl the corridors, floors, reception areas for two days and encountered three guys , all asian foreigners coming in for rhinoplasty operations. one guy (vietnamese-canadian) came for a consultation and decided to do the operation the same day because he had to go back to Canada 7 days later. Another guy (asian-american), i think he came from Colorado, US, and had his schedule surgery, another guy , maybe from Singapore, he did his also at GNG. Overall, i think they were very pleased with results, the guy form Colorado said he felt good about surgery, also the Singapore guy. Did not get chance to talk to Vietnamese guy as he maybe more bedridden because of pain. For recommendation, I think as a male, the decision is easier than a female. the name mention (Nana, Uvom, View, Hanabi, and Premier.) are all good by reputation, ... beside the two mention above, I went to Nana, View and Hanabi. There were all impressive, but I choose between Banobagi and GNG because I really wanted a natural looking nose after surgery, nothing drastic and, in my opinion, those two clinics look capable of giving me what I wanted. At GNG, if by luck you get Dr. Seong, would seriously consider. Also, Dr. Hong, who did my rhinoplasty. Dr Seong is the head surgeon and he does the more difficult ones (revisions- clients who got their surgery messed up by other clinics), while Dr.Hong does the majority of the first timers.

petercc Posted November 4, 2019 Share Posted November 4, 2019 From my past experiences in South Korea and comments to his forum, decision is easier than you think. As an asia male compared to female, all the doctors in the more popular clinics will do a good job. Criteria is more on having a natural looking nose (not bulbous and flat) rather than having a beautiful nose like those female kpop stars. Because I wanted a natural look, i opted for implants rather than silicone. Implants gives a more natural look, while silicones will make you like Hong Kong movie stars, like a young Andy Lau or Chow Yun-Fat. 1 month after surgery, because it was so natural, friends kept asking me if i lose a considerable amount of weight because my face look so slim..... I did not say anything... they all wanted the diet secret!!!.... lol. My looks did improved considerable after 3 months, and it keeps getting better as the swelling goes down.

donghwan1226 Posted November 5, 2019 Share Posted November 5, 2019 One of my friends was debating himself between GNG and Banobagi for rhinoplasty, but eventually he chose GNG as the hospital specialises in nose surgery. Dr. Seong are considerably popular among many patients, but he got his rhinoplasty done by Dr. Hong, one of their rhinoplasty specialists. From his experience, Dr. Song is pretty meticulous and caring, and overall he was very satisfied with his final results. I guess you can't go wrong with either Dr. Seong and Hong as both of them are well-known for rhinoplasty. Of course, Banobagi is a very popular hospital among locals and internationals, and there are many great plastic hospitals in Seoul, but GNG can be considered as a good option for sure.

kellymelly Posted November 6, 2019 Share Posted November 6, 2019 If you are in Korea for a longer time, you could go to different hospitals for consultations. If you don't live in Korea, try to have an online consultation and narrow it down to a couple of hospitals where you can have the f2f consultation once you come to Korea. I had my procedure at Seoul Queen, but I am not sure whether they are good with male rhinoplasty or not... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
j-cn Posted January 4, 2020 Share Posted January 4, 2020 Did you guys come to a decision regarding a clinic for rhino? I'm also an Asian male looking for rhino. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
twocupcakes Posted January 4, 2020 Share Posted January 4, 2020 I've been leaning heavily towards Cocoline. They're rhinoplasty specialists, and I have some functional issues I would like taken care of. But I also wanted to get some other procedures done, so I don't know if maybe I should just go to some other clinic that can accommodate everything at once...
