I think adding length and projection to your chin would be a good idea to balance your face, however I'd try out the look first by getting chin filler before doing surgery.

@Anyuta1980 this seems like a great idea ! your cheekbones are amazing, and chin fillers would be a great way to add even more balance to your face. always go with the less invasive procedure first.

Actually, I already did it)) Put 1 ml into my chin. Doctor insisted on 2 ml, but I wanted just to see. And I should say it makes my face more harmonized, that's why I'm thinking about menthoplasty. I don't want to make fillers all the time.

After seeing some of my friends getting their noses slightly (or not so slightly lol) improved I've been thinking about doing some changes to myself as well. I don't know if I want to go with full rhinoplasty, though, since I don't really need much, so I was recommended to try nose fillers first from www.kowayo.com but the downside of that is that they are not permanent solutions.
If you have any input into this particular clinic or about nose fillers vs rhinoplasty in general, I'd appreciate it.

I know all surgeries come with risks and that choosing a reputable clinic and doc is important, but anyone know how risky jaw surgery is?
How common is it to get permanent numbness or some other permanent issue? I doubt death is common, but risk of death? lol

Hi Hapagirl_99,

I have just done my rhinoplasty 4 weeks ago. As someone who is a first-timer in doing rhinoplasty, i could totally understand your worries XD anyway personally i think there's no need to engage in docfinder since they would only introduce you to the clinics they are affiliated with and that would mean exorbitant prices. Getting around seoul and booking a consultation is pretty easy. Taxi is not expensive over there as well. Below are some of the information I have gathered through reading tpf, joining kakao chats and weChat. Hope it'll be useful to you

1. i have read through some of the reviews from tpf and these are the clinics which most of the people have negative reviews on: grand, BK, wonjin, pitangui, and many more
2. these are the clinics which are more affordable and produce good results: Mvp (dr. seo), the line (Dr Kim), JW (Dr suh), braun, dream (dr park), april 31st
3. you can ask for quotation in your mail but there's not much point since those prices will change after you consult the surgeon and bargaining only starts after deciding what are the procedures to be done
4. Big clinics charge more because they charge you for their facilities as well. So it does not mean that bigger clinics more expensive it'd be better
5. When i go for consultation, I'd usually ask the surgeon what other surgeons suggested me to do and ask if it is necessary. Cause some of the surgeons would suggest different ways of doing the surgery and if confused which to choose, why not ask other surgeons. hehe. For example, when i went to tlps, the surgeon suggested me to use septal cartilage, ear cartilage and donor rib cartilage for my tiplasty which i felt there's no need but i'm unsure. Hence I asked all the clinics which I've went for consultation and all of the doctors agreed that there's no need for donor rib cartilage.
6. I've went ruby, dream, mvp, tlps, baum, banobagi for consultation. i wanted to consult JW as well cause i have heard a lot of good reviews on JW though their prices are very expensive. But Dr suh is super busy and the consultant did not reply my email despite me sending multiple ones to ask them. So in the end i gave up on JW.
7. If the doctor is very busy, it might be good or bad. Good in the way he is popular. Bad in a way he might be very tired or feel rushed when he is operating. there's a few clinic that i went to the doctor seems like they have just finished their operation and they had to rush to see me and after my consultation, they had to rush for another operation.
8. after all my consultations, i did my rhinoplasty with the baum even though they do not have much reviews. However, they are the only clinic which offered me CT scan and the doctor (dr. park) is able to speak good english. He is also very patient through out the consultation in explaining to me the whole surgery procedure. Also, all the procedures including the surgery, cotton pack (in the nose) removal and stitch removal were done by him while most clinics, the latter two were performed by the nurses.
9. I feel that it is VERY important to find the doctor whom you trust so that you can maintain a positive mindset through the recovery period so go for more consultations!
10. I did my nose at 3.38 million won which is very reasonable for my case: primary rhino + alar base reduction + tiplasty so i did not bargain at all. I feel that anything above 5 million won is considered expensive already!

Hope this helps!

Hi, I'm planning to do my rhino revision in July but still considering which clinic/ hospital to go. After reading your review, I'm interested to get a consultation at Baum. But, I couldn't find any more reviews on the internet. Do you mind me adding you on Kakao to share with me more of your experience, please? kakaotalk : veronicazzz

Hello Happysoul123,

I'm just 2 weeks away for my trip to rhinoplasty in Seoul and stumbled on your very informational post. May I find out how your rhinoplasty has turned out so far? I'm also wondering if you think it's very safe to go back to work 3 weeks after rhinoplasty based on your experience?

I'm now torn between Baum, MVP & Dream.

Thks in advance!

Rgds,
Victoria

 

[k-junkie]

Me too!!!! I feel you Victoria. Mine is revision rhinoplasty, so I am kinda stressing out, actually haven't been sleeping so well lately... yes loser. Ideally, I like my nose bridge reduced by 1-2mm and my pointy tip reduced and slightly rounded to achieve a harmonised Asian face.

I'm torn between April31, Dream, GNG cos doctors are said to be ENT rhino specialist, Baum based on above positive experience. Anyone considering Trend Surgery, is it genuinely recommended or bogus marketing?

HIhi Happysoul123,

How are you liking your new nose? Is it possible to add you on kakao to see your before and after pics? If you dont mind, perhaps you can add me. My Kakao id: Rainbowbunny. Thanks so much!

Hi Happysould123, can I please have your email or kakaoid, I am going to korea on May and considering dr Park at Baum for my rhinoplasty. Thank you

Hey, glad to hear that you doing well with your pre-trip preparations! i think it's always good to go for more consultations because your decisions might change after you have went through the actual consultations. No harm getting more advices. I'm sorry, i do not remember the consultant's exact name but she said i can call her xiao you. hahah and yea Dr park looks really young and i think he looks a bit like bae young joon :giggles:
