Nose: It's my first nose surgery, but I'm considering costal cartilage (because I'm also worried about shape distortion if ear cartilage is used) I want improvement of the nasal tip more than a high nasal bridge My nasal septum is slightly deviated, but it doesn't interfere with daily life (+ my rhinitis is allergic seasonal rhinitis, so it can't be helped) I dislike a pointy nose (Knowing Bros Winㅇ, Kwonㅇbi, Lee Siㅇ) and a curved semi-beoseon line I prefer a stable, slightly rounded nasal line around the columella and nasal alae Cheekbones: My head itself is originally large, my face shape isn't angular but roundish, and I have some facial fat 1. ㅂㅌ - ㅇㅅㅎ, ㅇㅎㅂ *Recommended costal cartilage / recommended 3-4 mm silicone / lower the columella and correct the nasolabial angle / alar reduction *When I asked whether the bone on the left side near the nasal wall was more protruding, they only mentioned that osteotomy could be okay *They said if I dislike a pinched-nose look, it needs to be supplemented with ear cartilage for the nostril? anyway -Cheekbone reduction should be sufficiently effective in my case / they were very conservative about square jaw and chin tip (they said because I'm the type who may sag, the downsides would probably outweigh the benefits, so they were very cautious and couldn't recommend it....) -Chin tip: no need to reduce the size or length, and even if doing minimal T-osteotomy to improve the shape, it would have to be done down to the jawline for a visible change in face shape, but it wouldn't be dynamic enough to add two procedures -Since it was the first clinic I visited, I thought it was more expensive than expected... but after going to other clinics, it was on the cheaper side;; -The consultation was generally fine. Compared with other clinics, the fame and review balance for nose + facial contouring felt similar 2. ㄴㅌ - ㅇㅂㅎ, ㅇㅈㅎ - Recommended costal cartilage / recommended 2-3 mm silicone - When I asked if I could consider no implant if it went in low, around 2 mm, they said they don't recommend it because a step-off could develop later -I asked about nasal osteotomy, but they didn't recommend it -If using autologous costal cartilage, no need to additionally use ear cartilage -For bulbous nose correction, since I dislike a pointy nose, keep 70-80% of my current nose *They recommended cheekbone reduction (the left side is larger, so remove more, and the right side is more elevated at 45 degrees, so consider asymmetry) *The features visible on the bone images look more emphasized on the actual face (soft tissue, muscle, and fat also have a lot of influence besides bone) *They also talked about square jaw and chin tip, so I mentioned the conservative opinion I heard at clinic 1. Since there is no need to reduce chin size or length, they talked about a mini V-line that doesn't require pin fixation (what is commonly called rotational contouring) *But more than a mini V-line, they recommended liposuction of the deep cheek fat and nasolabial fold line >I hadn't been thinking about liposuction, so I went without looking into it... but when I said it does seem less dangerous(?) than bone surgery and more necessary, I was tempted *During the consultation I could feel that they were very detailed and meticulous (felt like they think a lot about different possibilities) *The photos I brought were ordinary people's review photos or cases with looks I disliked, and they told me to prepare photos of celebrities with the aesthetic I want >Super expensive... why is it so expensive... But the consultant answered everything I asked, though somehow she felt languid, like do it if you want, don't if you don't.. It was a bit draining and I was shocked by the total amount, so I don't remember well how much each was; >There was no pressure, but the total price changes depending on whether I put down a deposit;; I put down a deposit for now because they said it was refundable.. 3. ㅇㅇ (private clinic at Nonhyeon Station) - ㄱㅎㅈ -I was slightly worried because it seemed focused on noses (contracted nose, revision surgery) and facial contouring seemed to have a smaller share > But according to the consultant, the doctor specializes in 'bone' and is serious about it, and because he has done two-jaw surgery, he specializes in facial contouring too -Recommended costal cartilage -Around 2 mm silicone / since I have protruding eyes and large eyes, a more dramatically high nose could suit me, but if that isn't my desired direction, 2-3 mm is enough -After pulling my nose and considering the angle after building it up, they said I don't need alar reduction -It felt like they were very serious about the foundation work of firmly building the nasal column.. they explained in detail with a PPT (I couldn't actually show the photos I prepared lol) -Other clinics said I couldn't be equally greedy about both length and height, and that each had to be divided out of 100%, but here the consultant said that with the director's skill, I could try to pursue both... *They also recommended cheekbone reduction as expected / when I mentioned the liposuction I heard about at clinic 2, they said they don't do liposuction and don't recommend it either (because soft tissue gets damaged anyway and loses strength, so it inevitably sags) *Instead, they recommended Ulthera, saying there are many good procedures like Ulthera.. lol *From the side profile angle of brow bone-nose-lip line, the front chin is slightly deficient, so it could be advanced a little with T-osteotomy, but if that's not my taste, they said rotational contouring is possible without necessarily doing T-osteotomy >But I said I'm not severely retruded, and I like the current feel, so I don't want advancement >Then when I was debating whether to do rotational contouring or not... they said if I'm unsure, it's right not to do it -Extremely expensive... even more expensive than clinic 2 It's a fixed price system and everything is organized in a table, so it doesn't seem like any further discount would be possible...;; -But the consultant was very friendly and communicated well, and the director seemed confident, with lifetime aftercare (though anesthesia or material fees may apply) ---- In my mind, clinic 2 feels slightly excluded,,, I'm going to four more places, but this is really so hard
