1. ㅇㅇㅂ(ㅔㅣㅣ) designated doctor consultation (ㅇㅈㅎ) First of all, the waiting time was insanely long. I think I waited about an hour. Consultation went in the order of coordinator - doctor - coordinator. The doctor’s consultation was really short, and it felt like he came down right after finishing surgery. Maybe about five minutes...? So I was a little uneasy, like maybe when I’m lying on the operating table he’d rush out too... Anyway, osteotomy + 3 mm silicone bridge + nose lengthening + autologous costal cartilage + alar reduction, 1-year warranty period *My midface is fairly long, and I never thought my nasal bridge was spread enough to require osteotomy. I also didn’t get osteotomy or nose-lengthening recommendations at other hospitals. But the coordinator was very kind and attentive, and the price also matched what I had roughly expected, so after the tests I made a reservation. It was 550, and with the same-day booking review discount I put down a 10% deposit at 450, then later canceled the reservation. Anesthesiology specialist: 0 CT: 0
2. ㄷㅇㅇ(ㅣㅔㅣ) designated doctor (ㅅㅈㅇ) The waiting time wasn’t that long. Consultation went coordinator + doctor + coordinator. The doctor consultation was quite long, maybe about 20 minutes? He showed other people’s before-and-after photos and gave examples. Donor costal cartilage + septum + 2.5 mm silicone bridge + alar reduction Because they did the surgery together with rhinitis surgery, I was able to claim actual medical expenses, so the price was the cheapest. 230 if doing rhinitis surgery, 290 if not. But the line wasn’t the one I wanted, and the coordinator was a bit of an overwhelming personality, so I didn’t book. CT: 0
3. ㅊㅇ(ㅣㅠ) designated doctor (ㅂㅇㄱ) Waiting time: after CT, I think I waited about 30 minutes for the doctor. The coordinator also suggested other things, and there was a bit of pressure to book. The doctor did not recommend the parts suggested by the coordinator. He emphasized natural results and safety. The consultation was detailed, but I didn’t think it would give me the direction I wanted. The price was also a bit cheaper. Autologous costal cartilage + 2.5 mm silicone bridge + alar reduction + columella opening: 600 Or septum + fascia behind the ear + silicone + alar reduction + columella opening: 480 Consultation fee: 10,000 won CT: 20,000 won I didn’t book because the coordinator kept pushing for a reservation.
4. ㄴㅇㄷ(ㅔㅣㅁ ㅡ) One-doctor hospital I booked the consultation after reading reviews from this community. The doctor spent an hour with me in consultation. The waiting time was under 5 minutes. First of all, the doctor was kind. When I told him about the surgical methods I had been recommended elsewhere and asked whether they were really necessary, he shaped my nose and said that, rather than doing more, the part that could improve was just raising the bridge. I liked the way he consulted me. Rather than forcing the same nose on everyone, he designed it to match each person’s facial shape, size, and proportions. The coordinator was kind too. The only disappointment was that the hospital was somewhat small. Only two surgeries a day. The price was a bit steep. Bridge 3 mm, tip septum + ear cartilage + lowering the columella (-50 from the review event) Smaller than other hospitals 400 CT: 0 Private recovery room
