Nose Surgery Reviews

Reviews from shopping around for my first nose surgery

It’s my first nose surgery, and I went to consultations at three places. But I keep worrying... If I go with the place I like, the price is the issue, and if I go with the cheaper place, there aren’t many reviews... If anyone here has had surgery at one of these three places, please share. First, my nose: ~~~ bulbous nose (they said it looks round from the front, so my nose looks low), small nose, my bridge is not extremely flat, but the nasal tip looks a little droopy. I have a very slight hump, just enough that you can tell if you touch it with your hand. Other points - they said my septal cartilage is sufficient, so I don’t even need ear cartilage. They said it’s not a particularly flawed nose. They also said it’s not a difficult nose to operate on. 1. Clinic 1 The first clinic I visited while shopping around. They took a CT scan. They were suuuuper kind. When I left, they even opened the door and came all the way to the elevator to see me off... But the consultation ended the fastest. It was my first consultation, and I hadn’t researched noses much yet, so that may have been why. The cost was the cheapest, and there weren’t really any additional fees. But although they were kind, it didn’t feel like they explained things using very professional terminology. The consultant naturally tried to schedule a reservation, and they didn’t give a detailed breakdown like how much for the bridge, nasal tip, bulbous nose correction, and the combined total. 2. Clinic 2 The second clinic. They took a CT scan, but the staff member who took the CT was a bit unfriendly. The nose price was reasonable. Eye revision surgery was pretty expensive, but this is a review about shopping around for nose surgery... For my nose, the consultation was for bridge + nasal tip + bulbous nose correction + hump, and because the hump was really, really slight, they said they’d just do it as a service. The doctor looked at me briefly and immediately noticed the areas I disliked. They answered my questions thoroughly... But somehow they seemed tired... The consultant felt kind of ambiguous. This was the only clinic that asked which number clinic they were and how many places I was going to visit. The staff were the most unfriendly, and somehow... it felt the most static? The director’s aesthetic sense seemed clear. The consultant mentioned a same-day reservation discount and created a bit of urgency, though not quite pressure. 3. Clinic 3 An acquaintance had surgery here and it turned out well, so I went. I had a consultation after the CT scan. But for the nose, additional fees were added like crazy... I waited almost 40-50 minutes for the director, and after letting me know in advance, they brought coffee + snacks. The director seemed confident, and the explanation was detailed with materials shown on screen, so it felt the most trustworthy, and I had almost made up my mind. They also pointed out all the drawbacks I had been thinking about... They also brought up side effects first. But... each item had additional fees of several hundred thousand won added on... Hump, bridge, nasal tip (septal cartilage), nasal ala, columella, nasolabial angle, bulbous nose... they charged for everything. I was really shocked when I saw the price... Is this what the cost is normally like, or did I get taken advantage of? I’d like opinions from anyone who has been there... It felt the most trustworthy, and the consultation time wasn’t short, but the director looked extremely busy. This was the only place where I had to wait like this. If anyone has had consultations there, please share the costs or estimates... And Clinic 1 is especially cheap, but it’s hard to find reviews... If anyone has had surgery at any of the three, please share your reviews too. It’s so hard to choose.
