I decided to undergo revision rhinoplasty
to improve my deviated septum, crooked nose,
and overall nasal function.
While researching extensively online,
I came across RU Plastic Surgery
through YouTube reviews and community posts,
and I liked how the results looked natural
while still showing clear improvement
using autologous rib cartilage.
At first, I was hesitant about using rib cartilage,
but Dr. Hyun Joo Kim carefully explained
why he recommended it
and how the surgery would be performed,
which helped me understand and feel reassured.
My surgery included silicone,
autologous rib cartilage,
and functional nasal surgery as well.
Since I usually bruise easily
and tend to have noticeable swelling and bleeding,
I was quite worried before surgery,
but thankfully, the bruising and swelling afterward
were much less severe than expected,
which was one of the most satisfying parts for me.
The crooked shape has already improved,
and the overall line looks very natural,
so even though there is still some swelling left,
I’m looking forward to how it will look once fully settled.
One small thing I personally felt disappointed about
was that after watching the clinic’s videos,
I had expected the stitch removal
to be done directly by the doctor,
but instead it was handled by the nursing staff
without much explanation beforehand.
