so from both the front and side views, my nose lacked presence
compared to my eyes and lips.
After becoming an adult, I decided that if I was going to do it,
I should do it sooner and enjoy my twenties with confidence.
That’s how I came to learn about RU Plastic Surgery
and Dr. Hyunjoo Kim.
Because it was my first rhinoplasty, I was honestly very scared
and researched extensively. I had even booked surgery
at another clinic a month earlier,
but the more reviews I saw, the more I felt
the aesthetic didn’t align with my taste.
I kept thinking about Dr. Kim’s aesthetic sense,
so I scheduled a consultation at RU Plastic Surgery
just one day before my originally planned surgery.
Right after the consultation, I felt certain
that this was the right place, and I changed clinics.
At first, I was worried about using autologous rib cartilage,
but Dr. Kim explained everything in a very detailed
and easy-to-understand way.
The columella line I was most concerned about
looked especially beautiful in his cases,
which gave me even more confidence.
My surgical plan included a silicone implant for the bridge,
autologous rib cartilage for the tip,
nasolabial angle correction, and short nose correction.
I wanted a natural straight bridge,
a softly rounded tip,
minimal nostril show,
and a feminine look without appearing masculine.
The result matches exactly what I asked for,
so I’m extremely satisfied.
I’m someone who usually bruises and swells a lot,
but surprisingly, I had very minimal bruising and swelling
even right after surgery.
Now at one month post-op,
the nasal line already looks beautiful,
and I’m excited to see it settle even more naturally.
One of my friends has already booked surgery at RU
after seeing my result,
and people keep asking where I had it done.
Choosing RU Plastic Surgery
instead of going through with my previous booking
was honestly the best decision I made last year.
Thank you to Dr. Hyunjoo Kim
and to the consultation manager and staff
for always being so kind and supportive.
