Revision Rhinoplasty After 13 Years – 2 Months Post-Op > 리얼셀카 | RU성형외과

Thirteen years ago,

I had my first rhinoplasty

using a silicone implant for the bridge

and septal cartilage for the nasal tip.

At the time, I was in my early twenties

and didn't think much about it,

but over the years,

my nasal bridge gradually lost definition.

From the front,

my nose appeared wider,

from the alar base to the columella,

giving it a flatter overall appearance.

The more I looked in the mirror,

the more I wanted to undergo revision rhinoplasty.

While researching different clinics,

I came across RU Plastic Surgery.

What impressed me most

was that Dr. Hyun Joo Kim personally handles

the consultation, surgery,

and postoperative care,

with follow-up appointments continuing for up to six months.

Since I believed that aftercare

is especially important for revision rhinoplasty,

I decided to schedule a consultation.

During my consultation,

Dr. Hyun Joo Kim carefully evaluated my nose

and explained that the goal

was not simply to make it higher,

but to reconstruct the weakened nasal framework.

He recommended correcting my pinched nose,

adjusting the nasolabial angle,

and performing alar reduction

as part of the revision.

He clearly identified the underlying issues

and thoroughly explained

how they could be improved,

which greatly eased my concerns about surgery.

Now, two months after my revision,

most of the swelling has resolved,

and my nose has become

exactly the shape I had envisioned.

I'm truly thrilled with the result,

and I honestly don't know

how to thank Dr. Hyun Joo Kim enough.

At my most recent follow-up appointment,

he confirmed that everything was healing well

and that my recovery was progressing as expected.
