Chiyu Plastic Surgery, Dr. Park Yu-gil Suggestion: bridge of nose + tip of nose + alar reduction via lateral incision + medial nasal valve extension graft + columella/philtrum line correction Materials: septal cartilage + ear cartilage + fascia behind the ear Price: KRW 3.8 million He analyzed the front and side views of my face overall and recommended surgery that would suit it. Rather than dramatically changing the line in a flashy way, his style felt like he was improving the hollow or prominent weak points of my face within a safe range and softly filling in the line as if a beautification filter had been applied, making it pretty. The idea of extending the graft because the medial nasal valve was more collapsed on one side and filling in that sunken area was new to me. He said a healthy nose shape also makes breathing easier, and I could feel that he was paying attention to the functional side too. He also picked up on the delicate details of the tip design well. The idea was to make the columella slightly fuller and lower it a bit, then fill in the sunken area above the philtrum and project it forward. He said my septum seemed fairly strong, but because my skin is very thin there is a limit to how much can be raised. It might show through, so about 1 mm may be the best? He also said alar reduction would be a pity not to do on this nose, and that if it were done, the lateral incision would be the right method because the wings are drooping rather than the base. He also said that if alar reduction is done, the nostrils would show a little more from the side. He clearly said alar base elevation is a high-risk surgery that should generally be avoided. Showing many before-and-after photos was helpful. From the reviews, they make you look natural and refined without drastically changing your overall impression. It is not that important, but unlike the kind, always-smiling image being pushed on Gangnam Unni, I was a bit taken aback. He answered everything I asked with a very tired-looking face.
