smilebaby123 Posted August 4, 2012 Share Posted August 4, 2012 I had silicone in my nose before. It gave me an unnatural shine and when touched, it felt so so weird...kind of like a tacky feeling. It was probably pushing too hard against my skin. While it did not extrude, I was worried that it would sooner or later so I got it taken out at those signs. Anyone who had a silicone nose got it replaced with goretex instead? I'm stuck between rib and goretex (each have their good and bad points). I mostly do not know how I would react to the goretex since I didn't like the silicone. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
faithfully7725 Posted August 4, 2012 Share Posted August 4, 2012 I just did a revision in NYC and aim very please with it thus far! Pm me if you need more info. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hangook Posted August 4, 2012 Share Posted August 4, 2012 thanks! so you took the implant out & now back to your regular nose until revision? Ya i think for me primarily is because my skin in too thin, I know other people who have nose jobs & look fine. I guess little worried because I had already had one revison! although it's a lot better I want this to be my last Ya gortex seems okay, but not many people use it? All the consultations I've been to all suggested silicone except one who did rib as well. Rib seems like it would have less problems but I surgery seems so extensive Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kichichan Posted August 4, 2012 Share Posted August 4, 2012 By the way, I don't know if Dr. Suh is really the best Rhinoplasty in Asia but he has written a book about Rhinoplasty and he is also a board-certified surgeon. I think he is teaching in the university as well. Anyway, I think the most important thing in a good surgeon is to be honest and patient, Dr. Suh seems to has these characters that I want as my surgeon.

clu13 Posted August 4, 2012 Share Posted August 4, 2012 Totally off topic - but how is the vibe? I arrive in London on Tuesday. It's my first time and I love the Olympics so I'm thrilled! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kkim120 Posted August 4, 2012 Share Posted August 4, 2012 Dude... what a bummer... Actually, I was told by Grand that the silicone was necessary to smooth out the results as well... Hmm maybe I have to reconsider my no implant policy.. but if that's the case, IDK if I want a nose job... D: If it turns out there's something wrong with your new nose after the full six months, you should ask JW if they're willing to do a free or discounted revision... I hope your eyes even out. I hear that it can take months for the swelling to fully come down for the eyes as well... Good luck with the rest of your recovery! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
smilebaby123 Posted August 5, 2012 Share Posted August 5, 2012 And people say rib hurts like hell. Primarily in the harvested area (unless you use donor rib). Some people say their rib area still hurts after 2 years (ouch) and some say it feels as hard as a rock on the nose. So I dunno. Right now I actually have ear cartilage wrapped in fascia on my bridge. But of course I hate it, so I'm looking to revise again. I don't understand how some people just do one surgery and it looks perfect! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
smilebaby123 Posted August 5, 2012 Share Posted August 5, 2012 Anyone know a good surgeon in the USA for wide nostrils/ noses? Mine looks like a typical Filipino nose except I'm not Filipino. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
london_chick Posted August 5, 2012 Share Posted August 5, 2012 Lol I know but when you live in London right now it's only about the Olympics 24/7! You can't escape it! It's a brilliant atmosphere right now since team GB shot to 3rd on the league table. Right now it's the woman's marathon. You'll love the vibe when you come! Unfortunately it's been raining a few times but generally about 20-23oC. Oh and Apparantly The shops have been complaining there aren't enough customers so make sure you do lots of shopping! Ok back to cosmetic surgery in Seoul .... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
london_chick Posted August 5, 2012 Share Posted August 5, 2012 Me too. I'm now thinking maybe to go for the silicone if that is what is needed to achieve the desired shape of nose that I want.. Hmm.. Lots to think about when im at the consultations! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
