Asian Nose Job 3

kitkatbar,
omg, congrats on going through with it bravely! i can't believe i'm still stuck in contemplation! hope your healing is going well and can't wait to hear about your results! hope you like it?!!
hugs!
My nose has definitely improved alot from my last semi-botched nosejob. But my alar was still a bit uneven after the surgery (I had this problem after last surgery), after a week when the stitches were removed, I went back to the clinic and told receptionists that I wanted to meet Dr Jung to discuss a problem with my nose, I saw him after a short wait and he agreed to help me fix my alar problem right the next day (just a small surgery done with local anesthesia in 30 minutes) :smile:. I can say so far im pretty happy with my nose after the 2nd surgery, its still big and swollen but I can see the improvements
 
Hey, sure - the more the merrier. I'll send you a message later. My tickets are already booked! I have a few days for sightseeing/walking around before I have surgery at VIP. So we can definitely meet up! What day do you think you'd be arriving into Seoul?

Even if you aren't considering VIP as your clinic, I was thinking about setting up a lunch/dinner event where everyone can just meet everyone going through the same procedure. :biggrin:
I'm also looking for a hair salon to have "japanese hair straightening" done (again), I think they call it "magic perm" over in Korea though..

I think I'll get there on Sept. 6th... but I haven't booked my tickets yet. When are you arriving again?

I think I'm going to get a few consultations and schedule surgery asap... but if you find a good salon, let's go together! I really want to get a digiperm, and that lasts like four hours. So does Magic Straight (I used to get that a lot when I was a teen) so we can keep each other company :smile:

Anyway, email me/pm me and we can talk deets. :biggrin:

Hey guys , long time since i last post here.

Anyway, I went for a nose surgery on June last year and was very happy with the result!:biggrin:
It look sharp now,gives you that non-flat overal face structure look
Before anything, no I didnt do it in Korea but the doctor is korean.
Here's my experience:

I went inside, he looked at my profile and explained several stuff that need to be done for my nose to achieve the better face ratio.
He suggested doing tip (using ear cartilage) and bridge (using goretex ; shaped customized for each patient not one-for-all type).
I wanted chin surgery too , (he specialise in eyes and nose) he honestly told me it'd be a risky process and need high-maintenance to avoid sagging.
He also said how achieving sharper nose could contoured my whole face.

2 Days later, I went ahead with the procedure, it was kind of scary in a way have that thought of what if I didnt woke up and stuff.
Plus JUST before my procedure, the girl beside me (who just got her stiches removed) complained on how she dislike her super sharpy nose etc.
Which trulyyy making me panickk! But I still go for it at the end.

For the next 4 days I went back to the clinic back and forth to
get my bandage cleaned/replaced, structure removed/replaced, get my nose monitored and finally stitches removed.
Im really happy on how I was taken care of like that.
and the doctor mentioned how the operation is really smooth one and how my nose (have a thick skin, easier for it to get 'modified') .

After stitches off, the swelling and bruising become more prominent.
I didnt look like myself at these period.
But after 5 months or so , the result start to show and I really like it! (considering on my previous nose..) haha.

I attached my before afters. sorry for the small pic

Hi Via,

Can I please email you in regards to your doctor and procedure, I really want to stay in Aus to do it, just can't find a doc who specializes in asian noses. TIA
 
Anyone else going to Korea around mid July or early August? I think I'm gonna get my nose and eye revision done at Grand.

I think one week stay should be sufficient? :cool: I won't wanna be strip searched at the airport cuz my bug eyes don't match my passport. lmao >.> speaking of which, i prolly need to update that stuff after surgery.
Hi cheerykiss

I was planning to travel on 19 Jul can you pm [email protected]

I want to have nose rhinoplasty
 
hi, i just joined because i'm going to S Korea (Banobagi Yeoksam) for a rhinoplasty March 12 week. i'm a chinese american male, 34, and i don't want to be bored the whole week! anyone else going there that week? places to stay (they offered a guest room but i'm not sure about it yet). other recommendations? thank you!

Rohnin:

Have you had your surgery, and how did it go? Thanks.
 
I just saw a Korean celebrity with a very beautiful nose- Park Gyuri.

People say it is her eyes that make her look mixed- but then I think she uses eyelid tape/ glue for her eyes since sometimes they look big (and Western-shaped) with a double-eyelid and sometimes she has an Asian monolid lol. That and maybe circle lens too.

I think it is really her nose that contributes the most to her "mixed" look. God I wish I had her nose, it suits her perfectly. We have very similar features, EXCEPT for the nose (well...and eyes too because I have naturally big eyes). Not that I want to look like her or anything...I just want my face to be harmonized like hers. Anyone know a surgeon who can turn a wide blobby nose into a nose like Park Gyuri's? Hook me up please?

Would Dr. Wang be able to do it? Any good AMERICAN doctors before I hop the boat to go overseas? I really don't want to if I don't have to. The only reason I would go overseas is because I've read that doctors there are more experienced with Asian-type and Asian noses than Western doctors.

Here is Park Gyuri :

With Asian-looking eyes:

With dark circle lens and/or eyelid glue/tape that makes her eyes look Western too:

I did mine with Dr Jung. No worries. Paranasal augmentation is a small surgery. He did quite well on this.
But i dont think it can correct the protruding mouth though. It can only help to make ur nose not so sunken by small extent.

Basically there are two surgerical methods on paranasal augmention.
Method one:krmei.net/xm/UploadFiles_1002/201203/2012033017392831.jpg

This one is what dr jung performed. this one will make ur laught line not so obvious. But not much change to the nasal labial angle from the side view.

Method 2:
s2.sinaimg.cn/middle/4cc39ea0gb38565ebf311&690
U can see from the picture that ,the implant is inserted from the centre of the month, directly below the nose centre. This one can make ur nose not so sunken.
I believe this one is performed by o& young as well as VIP. that s why their patients showed great change from the side profile.

Dr Jung performed the first method. I dont think he performs 2nd method.

Hope this helps.

Hi Greatnose!
May I know where did you get this china doctor from?
Ive been become passive reader to this thread and coincidently I've had pre-maxilarry implant (like this :http://photo.blog.sina.com.cn/list/...565ebf311&bid=4cc39ea00100xfkv&uid=1287888544) years ago .
From first time i was unsatisfied with its result. it look unnatural when i speak or smile. my smile look terrible (teeth cant showed fully...) and eventough the projection (side profile view) is the only thing that get aesthetically better ,..but still in return it make my upper lip distance with nose look longer from the original! now I just want to remove it in hope can bring my smile expression back but I also still want to keep the forward projection of my nasal base..

Im very curious with this china doctor method or dr wang method...if theres method that can pull out this nasal base area without ruined smiles expression?

I saw this other technique (number 3 = http://photo.blog.sina.com.cn/list/...a23aa9bea&bid=4cc39ea00100xfkv&uid=1287888544 ) Is it similar with dr wang method to pull out the nasal base?
and I wonder if this technique wont make smiles expression unnatural but still can give projection that we need?

because i saw the before after from dr wang for this area are great! means it doesnt make upper lip longer (which ruined smile) but still can give much projection forward that we need, even it can give effect like such that "pull" of the subnasale creates a cute "tethered curl" -where the upper lip meets the base of the nose (which I wanted from my personal aesthetic reasons) I think who had this procedure would understand what I'm talking about.

For anyone who had this kind procedure please please kindly share? Thanks in advance! :smile:
