VIP is cheaper tthan O&Y now. VIP quoted me US$10,000 (incl. free accomodation).

O&Young used to be much cheaper than VIP isn't it? It's now about $1000 cheaper. Thanks for the add! However, your link doesn't seem to be working. Might be just me. Keep us updated. Glad you're liking your new nose.

I'm starting to actually get more insights as I move forward. I'm just waiting for the other clinics to reply so that I can choose where to go to. Has anybody corrected their nose hump and have their bridge and tip repaired? I just got my follow up from Pitangui's online consultant, and here's what she said:

We observed that you have a nasal hump and your nose tip is droopy and bulbous. The top third of your nose from between your eyes to the a third of the way down should is predominately made up of bone. From that point, to the area where your tip starts, the nasal bridge is mostly cartilage. Your nasal tip is also made up of mostly cartilage and also soft tissue such as fat, and skin.

The nasal hump can be due to either over grown bone or cartilage. Dr. Yoo will perform either through a close or open approach depending on your nose shape.

To reduce the nasal hump, the nasal cartilages will be separated from the septum. Then, he will reduce the hump prominence until it is as close as possible to your desired look. Then, the bony prominence will be reduced by shaving method. After the shaving, a thin slice of silicone implant will be placed on top of your nasal bridge to make it straight and higher. Finally, droopy nose tip correction will be performed by rotating the overgrown cartilages inside of the nose tip so that length of your nose will get shorter to give you a younger look.

Additionally, excessive tissues inside of the nose tip will be removed partially to make slimmer nose tip. The surgery is usually done under sedative anesthesia and with a small incision with very fine sutures.

Hi Phoebeng,

I had my primary rhino at PAI with Dr. Preecha in Dec2006 using L-shape silicon. If I remember correctly i read that Dr preecha pioneered some sex change surgery technique. So then i assumed he was THE expert in plastic surgery plus he was relatively cheaper and that was y i hastily went to him. O boy was that the biggest mistake of my life.
IMO if preecha could come up with some technique then he must be a pretty damn experienced PS and IMO he shoulda known that L-silicon on nose tip is prone to extrusion just like mine eventually did. So either he doesn't give a sh** or he was just not as experienced as i thought he would be with rhinoplasty. and i ended up with a badly infected, deformed and disfigured nose which took 3 revision rhinoplasties (and lots of $$$) just to get my nose to look ok again.

So word of advice, don't pinch pennies!!! look for a PS that is reputed n
specialises in one specific area of plastic surgery.

Hope this is helpful.

True. Rhinoplasties are one of the most difficult plastic surgeries and has one of the most greatest risks - difficulty breathing. I don't even know why L-shaped implants were used in the first place when the risks were pretty obvious from the start. It really is important to go to board-certified doctor who really knows what he's doing.

Hi, for my 1st revision rhino i used ear cartilage for bridge augmentation and the result was far from satisfactory. The Before photos in my album is ear cartilage bridge.

Hi everyone
I had my rhino and fat graft Wednesday night and am 2 days post op now. I chose to go with Migo because i felt they were most professional, they did X-rays and the dr took time to show me what my nose would look like with cotton tips etc
So I could visualise it. The girls who all work there have nice noses and i really loved Dr Kang's before and after photos really perfect but natural still. I went to consultation at Oz, Jelimp and Navi and i do believe each dr has their own style of nose or what they believe to be aesthetically beautiful. Anyway I felt most comfortable wth Migo, apparently they have celebrity contracts too. I was recommended far graft on cheeks, forehead and chin by a couple of other clinics too and originally didn't want to be up sold into more procedures but from looking at b and a pictures realised that the results make The person look significantly better however it's so subtle you can't pin point what they've had done. The dr also said as my nose is really flat (low bridge, upturned, round tip and wide alar) I will look different with a more defined nose so I though might as well get far graft too if it will compliment the rhino and have an overall better result.
I ended up getting a 4.5mm silicon implant, septal and ear cartalidge tip and far graft whole face. I must say far graft eas a really scary experience as you are awak during it and although cant feel pain can see and feel them doing the procedure to e honest I was shaking on the table before my rhino.
My face was hardly swollen yesterday but today it's quite puffy and my eyes are a little bruised. I can't see what my nose looks like yet as its in cast but the shape of my face looks more defined from fat graft and I look a little different... Like me but not defined features which is what I wanted. Obviously the fat graft results will lower as a percentage of it dissolves into your body so might not be as significant later. Anyway will keep you girls posted on my results. Decided to post my recovery and experience as this forum has actually really helped me during my journey and I understand how stressful and life changing your choice in surgeries and clinics can be so would like to be of help too

Thanks! It worked.

That nose matches your face. I like how the tip looks from the front. Nice slope on the profile view. You look younger in the after as well. Whatever skin treatment you had helped. Congrats.

 

[april_may]

Thanks. Could be the stem cell and/or the fat graft that somehow helped my skin

Thanks for accepting my FR. You are already looking great. For fat graft, I couldn't exactly tell what you did (besides the fact that you said you had fat graft) just that you look better than before an your nose is looking amazing!

Good luck on your revision i've been researching for quite a long time to and i do rlly want to get this whole experience over with, so hopefully this can all be done by this year.

I rlly am happy that you promise that you will report back and let everyone know how it goes. i've had several people on this forum tell me they'll let me know how going to dr.wang was, whether it be a consult with him or actual surgery. and so far i have not heard back from any of them. i understand where your coming from, it can be really annoying and frustrated especially since hearing how their experience with him was is quite important since he is unknown in this forum.

I was rlly counting on Artss to reply back since she said she booked her flight and everything! i was thinking the same thing, like what they hell did something happen to her. i guess we'll never know unless she comes back to the forum. with all this said though i rlly do believe dr.wang is a very skilled
and reliable doctor. there are many b&a pics and reviews from patients that have gone to him in a chinese forum. definitely let me know how everything goes and if you disappear from this forum then i'll know something is up!! lol

Hey Taeyang, I've been looking around for reviews and BA's (other than the ones on his site) on Dr. Wang but can't find any. Could you link me to the Chinese forum with reviews? Or tell me which search terms I need to look for in order to find it?
