Actually I arrieved about 5 minute after you left. Anna told me that you came and made up your mind about having surgery with dr hong. excellent!! That make the two of. Well not with dr hong per say, but with dr shin. I was actually held back by the traffic leading up to sinsa. Not to to mention I took the wrong airport bus which drop me about a mile from sinsa. Had to take a subway there. Luckily it was near by.

So drop by BK today. Weren't able to meet with dr hong since he already left. But i consider it a blessing in disguise. Fortunately dr shin were still around so i went to see him instead. To make a long story short, I decided to go with dr shin for my both my nose and my cheek bone reduction, as well as well dermis for my paranasal fold. I have also decided after many weeks of consideration to go with silicone instead of dermis for the bridge of my nose. I will have an alar rim lift and lowering of the columella. My nose will be projected using alloderm (cadaver tissue) and the bridge of my nose will be narrow with nasal osteotomy. I will have fat harvested and store to be use to fill in depression under the orbital region in the future, and of course, dermis harvested to augment my paranasal depression.

Paranasal? I still cant figure what is that as Dr Kim did mention that it is rhino.

primary rhino meaning first rhino or primary rhino as in the typical rhino ppl get at first?

I'm still not down for any implants, but we'll see what I end up doing.
A lot of surgeons have agreed to my no implant demand, but I've been recommended alarplasty or osteotomy, or even both, by some surgeons... So we'll see what goes down. The plastic surgeon I saw at home said alarplasty and tiplasty, but Korean surgeons may agree/disagree so we'll seee~!

When are you planning to get surgery again? I know you're changing your dates...

If the airline allows, I like to reach Seoul on the 4 to 21/09. Long long stay so the accomodation will hurt my pocket.

Still waiting for reply from Zuji....

oh for the procedure..i'm not very sure of it coz i couldn't find any materials on the internet. but what vip recommended to me is using my own rib cartilage as i intend to have rib cartilage rhino. i believe they will make an incision in my mouth and somehow put in the cartilage to fill up that fold?

prolly could get more info about this from shane or any other member who had this surg?

actually another forumer shared with me that smiling lines are natural as its caused when we smile. i think that unless our smiling lines are reallyyyyy very obvious, we could consider it?

vip recommended that to me coz of the reason below:-

'Her nasolabial folds are also depressed in, so for a better enhancement, I highly recommend her to have paranasal augmentation along with her rib cartilage graft rhinoplasty.

Paranasal augmentation is to fill in the depressed nasolabial folds so her nose can look more definite and have more youthful looking face.'

i have short, bulbous & wide alar base. hence, they recommended this to me coz it will sort of make my 'new nose' look more 'pops up'?

so i guess it all depends?

VIP recommended this to me as well as i have depressed mid section however I asked other clinics and almost all said I dont need it - maybe 1 or 2 others said but ID, BK, OZ, Grand didnt say I needed it... I think the one that did was VIP, Dr Wang in China and SeoulTouchups..

prolly that was their way of upselling, i guess?

when i received that email from vip, it really starts to make me wonder.. probably i could have paranasal folds... just that i didnt realize-focus too much on my unsatisfying nose! hahaha! *confusing*


wow!~ you enquired quite a number of clinics! i've asked only VIP.

Have you had any PS yet?
