My nose isn't bad at all to begin with, i have a baby small nose but I just like that mixed look.
Who did you have your nose done again?

dr kao and dr chuang's price are similar. it's only around 500 usd diff so who cares.. considerin i've already spent so much time and money on this crap lol

dr kao prefer gortex over silicone though

as I said i'll decide a doc after my consults...
but what to say to the doctor that I end up not going to? I feel bad making them squish me into their busy schedule and bombard them with questions at then end didn't even do it. Plus I might need to come back to them for some other work in the future I don't wanna leave a bad impression. Anyone got an idea.
:roll:
it is ok lah. just do it with any doc u like. it is part of biz that they have to entertain customer...

I for one have narrowed my choice to that but t seems the Drs recommend gortex when i showed my picture.

The use of rib cartilage is a more difficult approach and i reckon only a few names come to mind namely Dr Jung, Dr Hsu, Dr Torumi.


For now i am planning to head to korea to do under Dr Jung.


After reading DMN's experience, i am torn between Dr Jung and Dr Hsu.

I have no idea which to go.

I also noticed the scar that will be involved via this route.

This let me to think to go to a donor's cartilage but afraid of the risk.

Does anyone know the cost as well Under Dr Jung and Hsu?

thank you.
personally i see both the nose done by jung and hsu, each of the nose has it good and bad points, i dun think jung's nose job is not natural or something but some may find it not nice. i find it ok. however i am shock the goretex implant shifted which is not common as goretex has good grip unlike silicone. hence comparing rib with goretex is not fair as rib is the best implant for nose job as mentioned bt many nose specialist

i would like to ask if dmn got knocked or something? why it can deviated so much post op? hope u dun misunderstand, i am not against anyone but just wanted to learn more

however if u dun mind the pain of the ribs and scar.. u can consider rib for nose if it is what u want

before we go gaga over hsu's nose job via rib. i would like to show u the master of master in nose job.. one of the top 3 nose specialist in the world.

if budget is not a concern, u should see a earlier thread of dr toriumi did to a vietnamese gal for her nose. totally awesome piece of work.. dun think dr hsu jung or gao can hit that level of skill..this gal did a rib nose job. yeah silicone and goretex cant hit this std of perfection.. furthermore it is a revision job!

Price 10-15k usd

This patient underwent previous surgery in the orient and had erosion of a silastic implant through the skin of the nasal tip. This left a depressed scar over the nasal tip and tremendous scar tissue. The patient underwent a secondary rhinoplasty with placement of a costal cartilage rib graft to her bridge and tip. She also had a costal cartilage strut to support her tip. The photographs represent a one year postoperative result.

Just wana share that I went to Dr Kao with a pic of this viet gal. I asked for a similar tip using rib cartilage and he did something very close for me.

I am sure Dr Kao can do this type of tip very well too :)

I went through 3 revisions before. Twice with Dr Chuang and 3rd time with Dr Kao. Photos are from original nose to now.

i was searching for another nose pic as kao is asking me for more

came accross this http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=O9eTAc_EAjs

i'm tempted to do this as well, dr Yang offer me to do filler for nose and eyes at the same time. I'm not even sure what exactly kinda nose I want... can't seem to find a picture that I really like, plus nose is something that's really hard to get it exactly right, anyone knows who got a one time nosejob and is completely satisfied for life?

^ With nose fillers it's only for augumentation.. most asian noses are bulbous.. so just augumenting it won't help the appearance much. But it does vary from person to person.

we will se as this gal nose is areadi finalised while your is still swollen..
if after finalise can be like this gals sharpness and nice nose tip, i will give dr kao my 2nd highest star of approval. this gal's nose bridge start off at the golden point. of coz due tpartly to the fact she got high brow to complement that sharp and high nose.

Hi Angeluv101

I was wondering if you have a frontal picture you can post up. I would really love to see the tip from the front. And can I find out how many days post op when you took the last picture. Your nose seems to be very defined and there isn't much swelling. Thank you.
if i didnt rem wrongly it was less than 1 month she did her nose. i really want to see the finalise stage..

the highest star is given to the viet gal by dr toriumi.. i use it to guage how ggod other doc skill is..
