2 Months Post-Op | Hump Reduction + Tip Projection + Osteotomy (Using Autologous Rib Cartilage)
본문
The reason I decided to get nose surgery was because I was really self-conscious about my upturned nose.
It bothered me from both the front and side views, especially when I smiled—it just felt too obvious and awkward.
While looking for a clinic that specializes in autologous rib cartilage rhinoplasty, I came across RU Plastic Surgery.
When I saw their before-and-after photos, I loved how the results looked clean, natural, but still noticeably improved, so I decided to go for it.
During the consultation, Dr. Kim Hyun-joo explained my current nose condition and the improvement plan in detail, which made me feel confident and reassured.
For my surgery, I had:
Hump reduction (bridge correction)
Tip refinement and projection
Osteotomy (to narrow the nose)
All done using autologous rib cartilage, and I went implant-free (no silicone) for the bridge.
The recovery process was smoother than I expected—
there was very little pain at the rib harvest site, and I was able to go back to daily life fairly quickly.
Swelling went down gradually, and now that I see the refined shape, I’m honestly so glad I did it.
Super happy with the results!
