It’s long, but everyone who wants a reference should take a look haha. This is my first rhinoplasty, and the only cosmetic surgery I’ve had before is double eyelid surgery. It’s my first time getting surgery in Seoul, and since I live outside Seoul, I left at 8 in the morning and went to 4 places. I’ll share my review! I had only thought of my nose as just a low, small, hump nose, but after consultations, they said my nose itself and nostrils are small, and it’s slightly bulbous (the tip is round). It’s even spread out. The bridge isn’t low, but it sinks down deeply. Long nose, average softness. Subcutaneous? A lot of fat in the nose. My face is on the small side, severe asymmetry, the columella is very recessed, my mouth protrudes, the glabella area is high, but my forehead is sunken. Anyway, this is not a good case for this kind of surgery…^^
ㅍㄹㅁㅇ (ㅊㅎㅅ) Sedation + local anesthesia Shave the hump No silicone Nasal bridge (septal cartilage), nasal tip (autologous costal cartilage or donated rib cartilage), shave the hump, bulbous nose correction, columella CCTV 100,000 won Free AS within 1 year Donated rib cartilage in the late 4 million won range, autologous costal cartilage in the early 5 million won range Waiting + consultation 2 hours First of all, the wait was really long (why are they doing surgery at my appointment time..?) and the desk staff was a bit curt. The consultant and director were kind and explained things well. They said my nose and nostrils are too small, so they can’t raise it much. And if I use silicone, I’d look like Avatar. They basically said if another hospital tells me to use silicone, don’t do it. The consultant said famous idols got it done here, so I was like, maybe who..? But they said they can’t tell me^^

Sedation anesthesia Nasal bridge (silicone) + hump, nasolabial angle, bulbous nose correction + nasal tip (septal cartilage, ear cartilage, donated rib cartilage) Late 3 million won range No wait, consultation 50 minutes They show CCTV I had a CT scan, but no consultation fee
At ㅍㄹㅁㅇ they told me not to put in silicone, but here they told me to put in 3.5 mm silicone. So I was like, hmm… what? I wondered if that was pushing it too much. But the director said it would be okay. The staff and director were all kind.
ㅁㅇㄷ(ㅇㅇㅌ)
Sedation anesthesia Early 4 million won range CT 10,000 won They show CCTV Open rhinoplasty, implant-free, nasal bridge (ear cartilage), nasal tip (ear cartilage, septal cartilage), columella lowering, shave the hump, lateral osteotomy Waiting + consultation 1 hour 30 minutes They show CCTV AS possible, but material fee and anesthesia fee are separate
When I did online research, I liked the reviews, so this was my first choice. After going in person, I liked it even more, so I made a tentative reservation here. I confirmed the date when I got home! The consultant and director were both kind and explained well. More than anything, it felt like they weren’t forcing unnecessary additions.
ㅊㅇ(ㅂㅇㄱ)
Sedation anesthesia Mid-to-late 3 million won range CT 20,000 won If you don’t take CT, consultation fee 10,000 won Open rhinoplasty, implant-free, nasal bridge (septal cartilage/(ear)/fascia), nasal tip (septal cartilage, nasal/ear cartilage) (if insufficient, donated rib cartilage; honestly I was so tired I don’t remember the nasal tip materials wellㅠ) + bulbous nose correction + columella lowering, make the lip line look natural, don’t shave the hump, use fascia to smooth the uneven line, add about 2 mm No wait, consultation 1 hour They show CCTV
I had taken so many CT scans today that when they said it was 20,000 won, I didn’t really want to take one… Since it was my last consultation, I was so exhausted and tired that I don’t remember well… They also told me not to put in silicone. Everywhere else suggested shaving the hump, but only here told me not to shave it and to fill the line with autologous tissue. I asked for a straight-with-slight-curve line, but the director recommended a straight line. Personally, I felt like the line I wanted wouldn’t come out, and the review photos too, so in the end I’m going with ㅁㅇㄷ! All the other hospitals lowered the price after hearing about events, reviews, and my budget, from the late 5 million won range down to around this much (except ㅍㄹㅁㅇ)… Why is it so expensiveㅠ Anyway, I’m having surgery in December. If you have questions or anything to tell me, leave a comment!!
