I went for a consultation w/ Cinderella years ago. I’m Eurasian with a Western-type nose (thin skin which Western/European doctors advise caution, high bridge, thin, you get the idea) but I had a botched first emergency rhino after an accident in the US. I have heaps of things to say about Cindy and on the forum I’ll confine myself to this: they do excellent work if you’re lucky enough to have an ‘in’ or Korean relations, and they trend toward an artificial look. It’s a good look, don’t get me wrong, but it’s (or rather, it was at that time) very much something which is common to Seoul and not other countries if you have a professional career. Things may get lost in translation or fees overloaded if you aren’t local or local-adjacent. I went with my Korean relative and got photographed in front of the infamous wallpaper in their old office (where many k-pop stars have photos which got on the internet, argh) due to a mix-up where they mixed me up w/ a drama star (the confusion was cleared up before consult tho). The head surgeon ran in from a surgery with his scrubs on and a gold Rolex with diamonds on the dial and told me he’d spend 4 hours carving my nose into Nicole Kidman. I was consulting with a ton of clinics, so this was a bit different to anything I’d ever heard from other Korean clinics or in other countries given my bone structure; I appreciated that he said I didn’t need any other surgeries (at that point in time in my 20s) when many clinics the world over try to sell you up everything. i ended up not going with them as I had a job outside of Korea and couldn’t spare the healing time (i did a lot of consultations inc this 1 horrorshow clinic where if I told you what they proposed I swear you wouldn’t believe me).
My young cousin ended up going there for a standard-issue nose and eye. She’s full native Korean, lived in Seoul, went with a pack of other girls and got a major group discount (not haggling. This kind of thing is an accepted procedure) which placed it about on the higher price range of a regular Seoul PS clinic. Her finished look—she didn’t need any corrections, she just wanted to emphasize her features to improve her happiness—does look rather K-pop artificial (also shiny noses in cold weather due to implant etc) but it’s attractive, there were no complications, it’s held up over time, and she’s happy with it. Iirc she didn’t get the lead surgeon I met with—I’m not sure whom, she treated the process as casually as going shopping for a new pair of shoes. I recall one of the assistants had this perfect nose—like, the kind I’d ideally want (my primary rhino looked great for a little bit but the US surgeon just stitched it without adding scaffolding to hold it in lasting place so the bridge started to weird, and the tip began dropping. I’ve had HA filler before but I think the time’s come to finally rehaul, plus I need a ptosis correction and anything that will restore my face to my standards and make me confident and pretty again lol. I’m getting old). I’m talking straight bridge, refined tip, but it was also an artificial look, de gustibus est etc. This is par for the course in certain scenes in Korea, but at the time I wanted the most minimal correction possible and worried if that was achievable on my phenotype at all. Now I’m like, gimme that nose. Standards have changed. Instagram noses, celeb noses IRL, it’s like, this is our new normal before the pandemic, it was honestly aesthetic imho and Korean surgical techniques have evolved by leaps and bounds on non-Korean skin types. (If you have thin skin for instance, any irregularities are bound to show through.)
I would say if you have reliable Korean contacts to accompany you, Cindy is worth a consult. I’m not sure how it works with a hired translator. I’m technically a foreigner, but I was treated really well; I just had reservations about recovery time (and a really awful initial rhino which made me super frightened of anyone touching my nose again. Thankfully I’m in a better headspace now). Once the pandemic is less of a flight risk I’d personally pay them a visit if accompanied by a relative or local friends, but to each their own.
