jamasian Posted December 23, 2009 Share Posted December 23, 2009 Hi Cottoncandy77, I didn't go to the Lotte Dept store but it's supposedly 1 of the 10 sights to visit in Seoul according to travel maps. There's a theme park with rides and a whole mall, hotel, etc. It's kind of like a Las Vegas mega resort. You can't wear sunnies or eyeglass for that matter for 30 days post surgery. Also have to be in Seoul to have your stitches removed 10 days post op. Feb is coming up soon, you must be really excited! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

niptuckk Posted December 24, 2009 Share Posted December 24, 2009 hi i the answer is both. the first one is popular for eyes and nose and does most jobs. The second specialise nose. i like th second one more. He does not use silicone and is against it. He prefers goretex.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
inerd Posted December 27, 2009 Share Posted December 27, 2009 thanks for the reply niptukk I was wondering if any one knew the repercussions of getting rhinoplasty, while also having hay-fever? I constantly blow my nose after I wake up and before I go to sleep, It's cause I am allergic to dust mites and they act up during the day and night. Is it still possible to get rhinoplasty if I have hayfever? Or will the constant blowing damage my new nose? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
niptuckk Posted December 27, 2009 Share Posted December 27, 2009 Inerd Every Individual condition is unique thus as to whether surgery is ok for you is up to him to judge. But your stuffy/breathing nose problem may be improved by an ENT. What i can say is this.. after op, it is good that you minimize movement to your nose Ie moving it, playing sport, jumping, blowing nose. JUST LEAVE IT UNTOUCHED if possible All this is ideal for the first 2-3 mths and while the longer the safer. After 3mths you shd be ready to take on physical activities, go gym etc. During the first 6-12mths, it is not uncommon to experience sensitive/stuffy nose. I mean the op depending on how much you alter it will require some time to heal. If you just add silicone and is your first time i think its less sensitive. But if you do bone narrowing, cartilage etc.. expect some sensitive nose. But its not that bad. After a year i feel almost everything is >90 % back to normal and after 18mths you shd be 99% back.

quad8s Posted December 27, 2009 Share Posted December 27, 2009 Thanks for the reply Jamasian. I think you had mentioned that before going to Dr. Lee, you had consulted with and/or researched surgeons in Beverly Hills. Do you recall who you met with and why you didn't choose one of them? I am currently looking at Dr. Richard Kotler and Dr. Simoni (both in Beverly Hills) for my rhinoplasty. Also, did you consider anyone in Newport Beach? I have only recently started my research and am learning about the different procedures and doctors. Thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gabranth82 Posted December 28, 2009 Share Posted December 28, 2009 Hi! guys i'm just newbie here.

inerd Posted December 28, 2009 Share Posted December 28, 2009 Hi every-one just providing an up-date on gore-texhttp://www.realself.com/question/rhinoplasty-gore-tex-sillicone This is a really good site, and made me think about using gore-tex. Does anybody know of a good nose doctor who doesn't use artifical items to augment the nose? Like a doctor that only uses ear cartilage, or rib cage...etc, own body stuff...
