I'm from out of town, so I'm writing this on my way home
@ㅊㄷㅊ Implant-free, using cartilage, or if the nasal bridge feels lacking, using artificial fascia ((no side effects))
Nothing in particular really stands out. The consultant seemed unmotivated (honestly, the consultant doesn't matter; the doctor is the one doing the surgery) I had been recommended MegaDerm at another hospital, so I asked about it, and they said they don't handle it at all because they once saw another colleague use it and, as it was absorbed, the nasal tip lifted, so they feel uneasy about it. So they recommended artificial fascia from the thigh. -Director: The consultation was about 10 minutes, and they drew pictures for me. For a moment I almost asked if they went to art school. They explained things well and briskly.
@ㅈㄷ CCTV O Implant-free, nasal tip fat removal, septal tying (bulbous nose) + nasolabial fold & double chin fat removal They said they would only know after seeing it because I dissolved my filler today. -Director: On the medical chart? there was a question about what felt uncomfortable during consultations at other hospitals, and I had checked something like "lack of explanation," so maybe because of that, or maybe that's just how they are, they explained everything from A to Z about the septum, ear cartilage, and costal cartilage. From what I heard, they explained so calmly and delicately that I felt like I could operate on my own nose myself (their voice was calm too). They sat right next to me while explaining, so it was a little burdensome, but they gave off a strong expert vibe?
@ㅋㅂㅈ Implant-free Osteotomy of both nasal bridge bones. Nasal tip (septal and ear cartilage). No CT taken. 3-year free A/S; depending on the situation, only the anesthesia fee is paid, surgery fee 0 won The director personally checks the splint removal, all suture removals, and follow-up progress They never do events, so the price is always the same, There is a same-day reservation discount You can do it at a neighborhood internal medicine clinic too, but the cost is your own responsibility. The consultant was very gentle, and when I asked about nasolabial folds, they told me to do the nasolabial folds first and then the nose. -Director: Only the necessary things. They didn't even ask what nose shape I wanted, but somehow pointed out the exact problems so well that when they asked if I had questions, I had nothing to say ㅜ They drew the nose shape for me, and this person too made me wonder if they went to art school? And they personally took a photo of my side profile and showed me with Photoshop there, laughing "haha," saying, "It won't be 100% the same, but I'll aim to create this kind of look~" I had nothing to say because they had already answered exactly what I was curious about.
@ㄷㅎㄷ CT O Implant-free. Fracture/osteotomy of both nasal bones - there would be a difference, but not a big one (when I said I pay attention to nose contour shading when doing makeup, they said then if it bothers me, I should do it; it will improve) Nasal tip septal extension (my septum is long downward, and to raise the nasal tip, the septum can be used, but since my septum is about average, it may not be enough to fully fill the nasal tip. However, if the septum is sturdy, they would use only the septum. If it is not sturdy, they would use donated costal cartilage. - I said I didn't really want to use donated costal cartilage, and they said they would extend it with ear cartilage as much as possible) There is a cost-price discount for writing a review
They said if I want facial liposuction, I should look into a specialized hospital. I probably looked flustered because I hadn't thought about donated costal cartilage. It seemed like a hospital that tends to pursue donated costal cartilage.
Autologous costal cartilage > donated costal cartilage > septum > ear cartilage The order of firmness getting weaker They said the warping phenomenon is almost nonexistent, and it only seems common because only people who have it post about it. -Director: Friendly. Looked tired. Um... taking the CT was honestly nice (felt high-tech lol it looked like a fetus). They recommended donated costal cartilage, but when I showed reluctance, they said then let's use ear cartilage, and that also felt lukewarm.. You know what I mean? Then was ear cartilage possible from the start? Or do I really need costal cartilage? That's what I wondered.
@I personally think consultation with the director is extremely important I don't think kindness is important, but rather how much expertise they have I deliberately looked into both ENT & plastic surgery clinics I wanted to go to ㅇㅂㄹ, but the timing didn't work out, so I couldn't go ㅠㅠ
Order of longest consultation time with the director ㅈㄷ > ㅊㄷㅊ=ㄷㅎㄷ > ㅋㅂㅈ
Consultant expertise (trust in the hospital? pride in their job, that sort of thing) ㅋㅂㅈ > ㅈㄷ > ㄷㅎㄷ > ㅊㄷㅊ ㄷㅎㄷ and ㅊㄷㅊ were similar, but ㅊㄷㅊ barely said anything ㄷㅎㄷ asked where I had been, whether I could tell them the names, and what they said, so I just confidently told them
What's making me hesitate is also the price difference, so I'm deciding between ㅋㅂㅈ and ㅈㄷ…
After today, I'll delete things like the prices and detailed info
