mialee Posted January 8, 2010 Share Posted January 8, 2010 There are somes post I haven't seen. > kktg9202 : Oh where did you get you surgery ( Sorry if I miss some post) ? Are you better now ? You know, now that I read your last post, I begin to be afraid ..of loneliness. Don't speak korean and know no one will be verry difficult. > To Caspen : I'm a vietnamese ( but french) too. If you stay in HK, would you go there alone ? and in Korea ? When do you plan to do it ? > To Solus : Oh really ? Did you get there a surgery or had any testimony from there? I've just seen the website and my current problem is that I speak neither korean nor chinese nor japanese , and there is no english version. I can't even find the " before/after photo" part =x So I don't really know how to do. I can at least ask question in english to the doctors ( if I find the right link ) , but there will be a lot since I don't understand what I read from the website. It's really a pitty =x Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
shinangel Posted January 8, 2010 Share Posted January 8, 2010 Hi Mialee! Glad to read a post from a European neigbour so to speak, as I live in Belgium (and speak French if you happen to fancy a chat with me)! By the way, I am Vietnamese too! I don't know if u've already set your mind on Korea, but if that's not the case yet, you might consider travelling to Taiwan with me? I intend to stay in Kaohsiung during the first half of November and go under dr. Hsu for a revision. Beware of BK Clinic! This thread as well as the Singapore Expats forum contain loads of bad reviews on their services! Do some thorough research before deciding on any clinic or doc! You might wonder why I'd rather go to Taiwan than to Korea. As a matter of fact, I just prefer the Taiwanese sense of beauty. I am convinced that Korean surgeons have loads of experience and are very skillful, however, I just prefer the natural, girl-next-door look which Taiwanese doctors seem to lean towards, over the overdone sharp Korean style. So it's only a matter of taste in the end. Mind you that Taiwanese doctors can be as skillful as the Korean ones... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

curiiious Posted January 8, 2010 Author Share Posted January 8, 2010 you must all be so excited! i'm just going crazy trying to choose doctors and how i want my nose to look (and then thinking nose might end up differently which stresses me out even more, haha!)... and airfare and hotel costs add up to so much from where i am! it'll will add somewhere from +$1500-2000 onto the surgery costs, wahtever they might be! plugging korean websites into translate.google.com helps a bit! korean sentence structure must be a lot different than english because the translations are much more harder to understand than usual though! which also means i have even more respect now for the korean doctors who manage to also learn to speak english! haha... and "nose" letter in korean is "코" --- so you can look for that letter when you look at the website link icons and can't tell, hahah! i have no idea how to pronounce it ! haha! and that's about it for random tips... haha! please let us know how your trips in seoul go! have fun, good luck!

shinangel Posted January 9, 2010 Share Posted January 9, 2010 Here you go: [email protected]. Feel free to send a mail if you have any further questions or remarks! I'll be glad to help you, as I've been through a primary rhino and have done quite some research for the revision. The reason why I post in English is because of the forum protocol.

carissa80 Posted January 10, 2010 Share Posted January 10, 2010 Asin, I had about the same done to my nose about a year ago. Will like to chat with someone about the experience as I'm not really accepting my new nose yet. Could you pm me your email? Thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jamasian Posted January 11, 2010 Share Posted January 11, 2010 Found posts by a Member named Jas3n on the original Asian Nose Job thread. His posts detail visits to about 10 Korean plastic surgery clinics. Give his posts 4 I didn't find after pics of his results but it looks like he did some great research and reporting to the forum. Here's a link to the beginning of his clinic visits. He visits Dr. Jung, OZ Clinic, AT Clinic, Dream Clinic, Clinic 9 and others: # He didn't visit Banobagi, but I give them 9/10 . He really gets into detail on page 17 of the 1st Asian Nose Job thread and ultimately chooses AT Clinic and writes about the results somewhere around page 32. Jas3n mentioned in one of his posts that Dr. Chuang in Taiwan studied under Dr. Kim at BK Clinic. Talk about a small world!! Ps. here's a link to a site that explains the difference between L and I shaped implants http://kyoritsu-biyo.com/eng/html/5.html Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
carissa80 Posted January 11, 2010 Share Posted January 11, 2010 Hello people, I just had an alarplasty done to my nose a couple of weeks ago. I'm hating the results. i thought it'll make me happier. But I miss the flare in my nostrils and it's too narrow. I feel like it makes the whole nose looks overall, "weaker", and "shorter, like the nostrils have been "cut" in half vertically so the bottom of the base look "short" and flat. I still have nostril curvatures but they are like two tiny curved ovals. Not a pretty look. I wish I just accepted my old nose. When I look at pictures, i look so much better and cuter with a wider nose. But alarplasty is not reversible, unlike implants. Is there anyone who had done alarplasty who knows if the flare is going to return somewhat? I flared my nostrils and I like the look better. I don't know. i'm very depressed. So far no one noticed but I feel like the damage is very noticeable. Is there a chance that no one will ever notice? I need some hope. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
vivi_bee Posted January 11, 2010 Share Posted January 11, 2010 ^ hi carrisa i did alar and ABSOLUTELY LOVE IT i must say your alar will only chage 5% the most..... dont bet on it... its mostly when the scars heal the red will turn back to the natural color making it look "fuller" why r u upset? Exactly how much did he take off? he should not remove more then 2mm per side. Otherwise something will be wrong.. my dr show me tons of korean dr who took way too much off alar... and its scary...
