Asian Nose Job 3

[xiledsoviet]

I just had alar reduction, short nose correction, bridge augmentation and tip plasty done! My nostrils were quite large but now they are really small, a little too small I feel.. is this the result of my nose being swollen? I'm only two days post op!

some clinics i asked seemed to separate these procedures.. eg for me:
1. Reductive rhinoplasty + Nose bridge augmentation + Nose tiplasty projection with ear cartilage + Bulbous nose tip correction + Alar base reduction
2. Nose tip surgery using septal cartilage, Nose bridge augmentation, and alar reduction.

some group it together:
1. Rhinoplasty Surgery
-Silicone Implant with Tip surgery by using your own septal cartilages
-Lateral Bone Reduction
-Lengthening

i guess in your case, rhinoplasty will refer to the nose bridge area? by the way we seem to have similar problems about our nose hahah

Yes, by rhinoplasty they meant that my nose bridge is slow and I need an implant to be inserted, but it´s just makes me bit confused using that term and the rest procedures said more exactly. Because I think I need something to be done on nasal bone and not sure if their rhinoplasty will include it?

Hi ladies, anyone planning to go Korea to do ps at the end of november or first 2 weeks of december this year? i am planning to go alone. finding companions here to support each other through the journey and also seeking ladies with bulbous nose which corrected their nose to review on the clinics i researched on.

Surgeries needed: Nose reduction (definitely) & maybe ptosis + lateral cantho for eyes if budget allows ( i already had double eyelids)
Problem: i have a nose with high nose bridge but appears too big form the side and too long from the front as i have a small face + short chin. This has been bothering me since young. So the nose surgeries i need are much more complicated (nose reduction) than the common surgery of inserting an implant. Have read so many forums and blogs but not many cases of people with same nose as me

Thus after reading purse forum i shortlisted the popular ones and sent my photos to jw, banobagi, id and pitangui and whatsapped Dream. Writing down my review of their email replies & quotes here and hopefully can help ladies who are still researching:

1) JW - no1 choice for now as i understand the main surgeon for nose Dr Suh is really skillful & rhino is his expertise. however there were not enough b&a of noses like me online.
they suggested: " Osteotomy to narrow the nasal bone and bulbous tip and then correct the hanging columella to reduce long nose appearance. No need to increase height with silicon, Cost: 6million-6.5million won
- i like that they specify the exact procedures needed for me instead of just telling me i need a rhino.

2) Banobagi - 2nd choice as i like that they have recovery rooms and guest rooms just in their hospital so it makes planning of accomodation easier. con: saw some forumer says they are not good at nose; only facial contouring.
they suggested 2 procedures: bulbous nose correction - cost 6,050,000 KRW and also chin implant 3,850,000 KRW ~ 4,400,000 KRW
- their email reply was short and didnt specify the exact steps to correct my nose as compared to JW thus i find it abit vague for me to understand

3) ID - they suggested 'Barbie line nose surgery' (Bridge augmentation + Tipplasty) which i guess is their trademark procedure. but im not sure about their bridge augmentation as JW consultant mentioned that i already had a high bridge.
Rhinoplasty with osteotomy - starts at 5.5 million KRW (5300 USD)
- impressed with their long and detailed replies with links to FAQ, before and afters and surgical steps.

4) Pitangui - saw one blogger with bulbous nose who went to this place and results was indeed a smaller nose but doesnt look natural. however the biggest drawback is that i read many bad reviews that Doctor is snobbish and will only consult you for 5 mins
they suggested Reductive rhinoplasty + Nose bridge augmentation + Nose tiplasty projection with ear cartilage + Bulbous nose tip correction + Alar base reduction - cost 4.5million krw
- their quote is the cheapest with so many procedures and i was really impressed with their personable email replies which was very long and super detailed explaining the surgical step!

5) Dream - i whatsapped them instead of email as i couldnt find their email.
their reply was very vague- that i needed a nose reduction with open rhino - thats it. Cost 7.7mil KRW. and when i ask them for the actual procedures needed for my open rhino their reply was "it depends on everyone's need. that cannot be decided until you see the doc"- i was super turned off by this reply, you quoted a price tag of 7.7mil krw without knowing what was needed for my open rhino; how do you derived this price???thus i feel they are not sincere at all and Dream is OUT.

Don't do chin implants at 4k, I have many friends that have done it at just 1k . It's a very simple and cheap procedure. You could get it done separately at some other less international clinic with the same result and for much less. The procedure is finished in 15 minutes or so.

hi all, is it possible to achieve pleasant looking nose with just nose tip plasty with ear cartilage?

nitekoala said: ↑

I'm very tempted to do my nose too..I've a bulbous nose so that's my main concern, I want alarplasty and to sharpen my tip but not sure if the results will be worth it.

Anyone who did Asian nose job for bulbous nose can comment ?

Hey there, I just did my rhino in Korea. Had a really bulbous tip and low bridge. I had my tip slimmed down and a goretex implant added to augment my bridge. Doc advised me against alarplasty so I didn't go with it. I'm 12 days post op and so far I'm quite pleased w my results! Definitely worth it

Hi, how did you deal with the itching if you had any when you had the cast on?

Of course , if your bridge is already high enough they will recommend that for more natural results.

Was there a reason why he used goretex and not soft silicone? I thought that soft silicone was the standard implant that they used

Honestly, I have no idea. I just felt safe with the doctor and went with what he suggested :/ on hindsight I should have done more research.

When my nose itched I just kind of touched the area around it and tried to distract myself. Thankfully I didn't have much itching going on.

Goretex is very problematic if you want to remove it because it kind of grows into the flesh. That is why silicon is used mostly. Its really easy to remove silicon if there are any complication 20 years down the road.

Mmm, I sure hope I never have to remove my implant...

 

[erichyung]

On the plus side, gortex has less likelihood of showing through the skin
