commet Posted March 18, 2012 Share Posted March 18, 2012 The aftercare is really great since they require you to go to the clinic for a check-up and to clean your nose regularly. The hair shampoo and facials are part of the aftercare as well. Full rib with ear cartilage added to the tip. With rib, it's going to hurt when you sit-up or move a lot for the first few days but in my experience the pain was tolerable. They'll inject painkillers to lessen the pain and give you antibiotics to prevent infection. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bisousx Posted March 19, 2012 Share Posted March 19, 2012 You probably won't be bruised, but anyone who's done rib will tell you that at 2 weeks, people will know you've had something done to your nose. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lexethan Posted March 19, 2012 Share Posted March 19, 2012 Hmmm... that sucks. But I guess most would be able to tell something is different as I want dramatic results/change. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

lexethan Posted March 19, 2012 Share Posted March 19, 2012 I've received one quote from VIP. PM me privately for the number once you've met the post requirements. They have an officetel that you can stay at for the duration of your recovery. I think it's free based on what I read on here but have yet to confirm. It's within walking distance to the clinic; on same side of the same street I think, based on google map. Plane ticket is roughly $1300; can change depending on season/time.

sesamekiss Posted March 19, 2012 Share Posted March 19, 2012 Hey! Sounds like you had a really good ezperience. ViP are in my top 3 now. I have a few questions tho - staying at the clinic for a few days after. Was that optional to do? Did it cost extra? - the IV pump.. Did u have to wear that when you when out and about as well?? Or was it only when you stayed at the clinic? Do you have any pictures? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sesamekiss Posted March 19, 2012 Share Posted March 19, 2012 They quoted me between 3m - 5m kw - if ur not getting implant it would prob be on the 3m side of the price! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rohnin Posted March 19, 2012 Share Posted March 19, 2012 I didn't pay anything extra, in fact I think it was just because I was the last case of the day (finished around 6-7p) that they chose to have me stay there but I think they went out of their way to accommodate me. They also have an officetel across the street if you reserve in advance I think it's free. The IV is just a plastic automatic pump you carry around clipped to your shirt or something, not too intrusive. I walked around with it hidden under my clothes. I just have one immediate post-op photo of me dazed in bed I'd rather not post LOL Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
greatnose Posted March 19, 2012 Share Posted March 19, 2012 May I know what is this IV for? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
milyway Posted March 19, 2012 Share Posted March 19, 2012 I am in France now; you should see the Chinese tourists buying power in branded shops like Louis Vuitton. It is a wellknown fact here, that is why some French people are taking up Mandarin lessons to cater to this big group of rich, rich tourists. Sorry, this is out of topic but can't help commenting as I was away from the forum for so long, LOL! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
milyway Posted March 19, 2012 Share Posted March 19, 2012 Any forummers out there who is doing rhino after tiplasty done? I wonder if they remove the tip to put in the implant or they leave the tip alone? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
greatnose Posted March 19, 2012 Share Posted March 19, 2012 yes, I totally agree with you. It is what I have seen in Asia like Korea, Singapore and in some Europe countries. That s why I think we should eliminate our stereotype about China. The major cities are really quite developed now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
