2 weeks post-op Rhinoplasty
Hello everyone. Here is my story.
I had a quite difficult case as had nose congestion, deviated septum and quite a huge hump on my bridge. I was looking for a hospital that can do both cosmetic and functional correction.
I consulted several hospitals, but I chose VG Plastic surgery.
VG Hospital was professional and offered both cosmetic and functional correction as they have ENT specialist as well. They did ct scan of my nose before the consultation. I was pretty surprised it is free even for consultation only.
Dr.Kim Young Woo consulted about the cosmetic part and recommended osteotomy, hump shaving and lifting my droopy tip. I didn't want any foreign material to be used for my bridge, so the doctor recommended using some tissues from behind the ear like fascia to keep the nasal bridge line smooth after hump shaving.
Dr.Nam Jae Sung my ENT doctor consulted me about functional correction and checked my CT scans and even suggested checking inside the nose with an endoscope to find out what is the reason for nose congestion. Dr.Nam also speaks good English, so it was nice to communicate with the surgeon directly in English.
Both doctors were detailed and thoughtful. Hospital also has up-to-date, clean facilities and nice staff.
It has been 2 weeks since my surgery I still have swelling and some bruising, but I already like my bridge line, straight and defined. I also feel like it is getting easier to breathe and my nose is less blocked. Dr.Nam said I need to wait for a few months for swelling to subside inside the nose fully, so it means my breathing will get even better. So excited to see my final result within a few months))
