Among the 6 places I consulted, the consultation fee here was the most expensive. They did a CT scan for 30,000 won, took photos, and then I saw the doctor. At first, when they explained things to me, they said the consultation time was limited to 20 minutes. After looking at the CT and photos, the doctor immediately went on and on about the condition of my nose. This was the first time someone had looked closely at my CT and explained my current condition in such detail. Without me saying a single word, he explained my current nose condition really well, and he said it would be better not to take autologous costal cartilage again if possible, so we should try to reuse what we have. He seemed very sorry about it, and said that if the situation really does not work out, they may have to harvest autologous costal cartilage again. The 20-minute consultation time had long passed while the doctor was explaining everything, and when he asked if I had any questions, I asked a few simple ones beyond what he had already explained. The staff outside called the doctor twice to press him because the consultation time had gone over, but he kept explaining things to me. Being rushed around felt a bit unpleasant, but I was thankful to the doctor for still wanting to explain everything without minding that. He explained very clearly that a dorsal hump nose is beautiful as it is, and only needs minor refinement. He said hump osteotomy is something done only for foreigners, Arabs, or people with really large noses, and that Asians do not need osteotomy. They do 2 surgeries a day, one in the morning and one in the afternoon, and revision surgery is always done in the afternoon because of possible situations. I honestly liked that part too. If this had not been peak season for surgery, I think he would have seen me for longer. He seems passionate about explaining everything he knows to the patient. The cost consultation was basically just a quick explanation of the fees after the doctor consultation. I felt kind of rushed. Even at the early first time slot, there were already several patients. Three were men? Two seemed to be there for follow-up visits, and one seemed like a surgery patient. In the end, I think I will end up doing it here. I am very cautious and still worried, but the explanation itself was different from everywhere else I have been. I will probably research more and then decide!!
