I got my nose done at a mid-sized clinic in Apgujeong back in November. Three months out now and I feel ready to share an honest account. The consultation was thorough — about 45 minutes with the actual surgeon, not a coordinator. He showed me 3D simulations and was upfront about what was achievable given my bone structure. No pressure to add procedures. Surgery day was smooth. I was in and out in about 3 hours. The clinic had CCTV in the OR which I confirmed with the staff beforehand — huge peace of mind. Recovery was harder than I expected. Days 3-5 were rough. Swelling peaked around day 4 and I genuinely looked alarming. My recovery hotel was a lifesaver — they had a nurse on call and provided cold compresses every few hours. At 3 months: I am genuinely happy with the result. The profile looks natural, not "done." The tip is slightly higher than I wanted but the surgeon warned me this could happen and it has softened over time. Happy to answer questions. I'll keep updating at 6 months and 1 year.
