Rhinoplasty clinic visit review 1. Silicone nasal bridge, nasal tip (choice of septal cartilage, donated costal cartilage, or autologous costal cartilage) Price: septal cartilage 3.3 million KRW, donated costal cartilage 4.5 million KRW I was getting a bit worn out because all the other clinics recommended donated costal cartilage, but this was a clinic where the director said septal cartilage was also possible. I trusted them right away. I booked the consultation in February and finally had it in April. Judging by the number of reviews and the reviews themselves, it seemed like a place with high satisfaction, so I trusted them even more.
2. Silicone nasal bridge, nasal tip (donated costal cartilage) Price: 4.4 million KRW if booking on the same day, 4.9 million KRW if not booking They said septal cartilage was impossible without even taking a CT scan. Hmm? The director seemed skilled, but they said septal cartilage was not possible without even taking a CT scan, and the price difference was big if I didn’t pay a same-day deposit. Compared with other clinics, even with a same-day deposit, the price still wasn’t exactly reasonable, so I passed right away.
3. Silicone nasal bridge, nasal tip (septal cartilage), functional nose surgery (inferior turbinate hypertrophy) Price: 3 million KRW after receiving actual-expense insurance coverage for functional nose surgery I went for the consultation with my mother, and they said that because my mother is older, her septal cartilage had calcified and surgery was impossible. Since another clinic said it was possible, I questioned the director’s skill and passed.
4. Silicone nasal bridge, nasal tip (septal cartilage) Price: 2.3 million KRW When my mother went for the consultation, they said that although she is a woman in her 50s, septal cartilage was possible. After the consultation, it seemed like the clinic that would do it the safest way without taking risks. A friend had it done at this clinic, but personally it wasn’t my style, and I wanted it to look a bit more glamorous, so I passed.
5. Silicone nasal bridge, nasal tip (donated costal cartilage), nasolabial angle correction Price: 5 million KRW When I had the consultation with my mother, they said septal cartilage was impossible and that she absolutely had to go with functional nose surgery. The director seemed skilled, but the surgery felt too excessive, the price was expensive, and since there was a clinic that said my mother could use septal cartilage, I was suspicious and passed.
6. Silicone nasal bridge, nasal tip (donated costal cartilage) Price: 4 million KRW They said donated costal cartilage could be used only if needed during surgery, or might not be used. They also said they would only know the silicone height after dissolving the filler, so I trusted the director a lot regarding the use of silicone or donated costal cartilage. / However, it was a bit frustrating that they didn’t give a definite answer saying exactly, “This is how it should be done.”
I’ll let you know the clinic names in the comments!
