After undergoing surgery at that hospital, I have suffered surgical harm and the extreme stress that came with it, and since no follow-up action has been taken, this is to help those considering using that private clinic make a careful choice.
ㅡㅡㅡㅡㅡㅡㅡㅡ It has been 1 month and 4 days since the surgery, and the area where the rib cartilage was taken out is still quite raw and painful. I can even hear breathing sounds from that area.. there is pain.. my nose is long.. and the tip of my nose has dropped.. I wonder whether it will become natural once the swelling goes down.. even though I had it done as a functional nose, my nostrils have become narrower, and as the swelling goes down breathing has become a bit more suffocating than before! (Even up to this point, there was not even a mention that I had had nostril reduction.) I asked for a refined and natural bulbous nose, but my nostril base also got narrower, and the bridge of the nose drops sharply like a straight line, giving a masculine nose impression, and my eyes seem pulled to one side because of the nose. Everything felt out of harmony, so I was anxious. It was autologous rib cartilage, so they said I had to wait for time to pass, but after coming here on the recommendation of two famous hospital directors, and because they put up celebrity photos and sounded so confident, I trusted that and went ahead. I don’t know what it will be like after time passes, but they didn’t even remove the bits of previous implants before putting the rib cartilage on, and then asked the patient: "Was this in there? Did you say there was one??" Who did my nose? Who operated on it? Why ask the patient that. If you operated on it yourself, you should know, and even while talking they kept hitting my shoulder or knee with their hand. The bridge of the nose also has a protruding, bumpy area from the previous implant. I ignored all the bad reviews on this community and was told it came recommended by doctors with justification.. but after surgery, the area where the rib cartilage was taken out is still painful and has swollen again to the point that it’s strange. Only the nurses at the hospital are kind. The facilities are old, but after surgery.. every time I went, it felt like I couldn’t really have a long conversation with the director in the director’s office.. a vague response. Nothing was clear. I wanted to know what had been removed from inside my nose before, but there was no explanation about that, so after the procedure I felt uneasy. (Since they didn’t remove it, they couldn’t say so.) The female director kept saying to just wait for time to pass, but if the shape were pretty, or even the line were pretty, I’d feel less anxious. I just wanted it to become a bit shorter, but I later found out that they had not shortened the columella; instead, they had made the tip of the nose longer.
The director also looked at my nose before surgery and spoke in such a professional way that I trusted him and went ahead. He showed me before-and-after photos and was confident, so I thought, "This will be my last nose surgery." Money aside, if my nose became pretty it wouldn’t matter that much.. honestly, it’s been very hard and I can’t sleep, and every time I look in the mirror I feel incompatible with my own face. I can’t meet people, and I have anxiety because I don’t know how this will turn out. They say I can only have revision surgery after 6 months, but do I really have the strength to endure this anxiety and appearance for 6 months? If my first surgery is like this, I wonder whether I even have to go through a re-revision surgery here.
I’ve only been a month in..! But seeing similar pain in the bad reviews here makes me quite anxious, that much is true. So as time passes, I’ll post another photo review..!! Whether the bad reviews are true or not.. I’m posting this evaluation to help prove it!! When I posted the photo review honestly, it was made private and they said it was malicious and defamatory. During consultation, they said they would remove the columella and do everything, but instead they made a different face in the style they had always used in the way most convenient for themselves. I came with rhinitis nose, but they said I came for a contracted nose, which is their specialty, and they didn’t even give me the documents. The female director is strange. In the hospital before that, they had shortened the nose by removing the columella and should have shortened it properly. But when the nose got shorter without removing the columella, they saw that and called it contracted nose, and the female director said I came because of contracted nose, while Director Jeong said he specializes in contracted nose and even runs a YouTube channel, and she scolded me. They are still shifting responsibility for the nostril reduction incision and avoiding responsibility for the previous implant, and I did not get all the materials I had submitted before surgery back. I am still suffering because of the image of my nose.
