chloefinds Posted December 9, 2016 Share Posted December 9, 2016 Do most people get a revision after their primary rhinoplasty? Is it typical since silicone can't last forever? :O Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
featheric Posted December 9, 2016 Share Posted December 9, 2016 Most people get a revision when their primary didn't turn out well, especially when one got a botched job. However, not most people need a revision. It depends on what kind of Rhinoplasty. Autologous Rhinoplasty is much less predictable and results in higher chance of revision. Artificial implant is easier to achieve a smoother and better result, however caring higher risk of infection and extrusion. Also chances are that you need to replace the artificial implant in the long run, even if there is no infection. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
perfect_me Posted December 13, 2016 Share Posted December 13, 2016 yup i've never heard of people who dont get revision after a few years, and yet these surgeons tell you this "if nothing goes wrong you can keep the implant forever" read the subtitle, if nothing goes wrong, like if it doesnt get misshaped or ugly, you can keep the implant forever, but it does get ugly almost all the time! i've heard some grandma had implant for lifetime in the nose, but technology then was probably simpler and better more reason for me not wanting any implant in the nose Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bianchi0143 Posted January 19, 2017 Share Posted January 19, 2017 I also had a gore-tex implant for 5 years I didn't exprience any shrinkage but I had a hump on my nose. When the doctor removed the implant he had a hard time extracting it, because it was stuck to my tissue. Now I have a big wrinkle on my nose bridge caused by the pulling. The doctor didn't find any hump inside my nose, he suspects that it was from the implant I had. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bianchi0143 Posted January 19, 2017 Share Posted January 19, 2017 L-shaped implants are prone to infections on the nasal tip I had a doctor recommended it to me in Gangnam K- Beauty Clinic. Saying it was the newest method in rhinoplasty and safer than I shaped implants When I heard L-shaped I said "no" right away. He also sounded inexperienced, like he didn't know what he was talking about. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lownosebridge Posted January 23, 2017 Share Posted January 23, 2017 Hi, i'm 20 yr old asian male who's considering getting rhino. I'm fine with my nose except for the low bridge. It starts right under my eyes so i have almost nothing in between them. I've been deciding between Korea & Taiwan. But willing to travel to other areas. I'm trying to achieve a nose bridge like Daniel Henny. Idk if that's realistic though. My budget is around 8000 USD. I'm trying to avoid a revision because i'm scared it'll be a downward spiral of revisions. I want a more prominent masculine nose rather than thin, so i'm not sure if the beauty standards in Korea will play a role. But the most important thing is still fixing the nose bridge. I will appreciate it a lot if someone could recommend me some great docs for my case! my nose bridge is exactly like hers Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bianchi0143 Posted January 23, 2017 Share Posted January 23, 2017 Hi you should check out wannabe clinic It's located in Apgujeoung I saw a korean guy walk out of there and he looked decent. The doctor can speak english and he knew what he was talking about Non foreigner taregeted clinics (local clinics) are cheaper Revisional prices were around 4000 dollars that means first surgery is cheaper Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
vichyk Posted January 24, 2017 Share Posted January 24, 2017 I was wondering what's the difference between a shield and a onlay? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

beauty12 Posted February 5, 2017 Share Posted February 5, 2017 Hi Thank you for your detailed review. What was the problem with your nose requiring a revision? Also, did Dr. Kim say that you could get a top up of another layer of dermis if the absorption was high? If you don't mind, can you please share some more information? Can you PM ? thanks so much.
