After two rhinoplasty in California, I was still unsatisfied with the way my nose looks. I did not have a hump on my bridge before, and somehow two years after my second revision rhinoplasty, I went back to my previous surgeon’s for further consultation. He was able to tell me the problems, but seems to me that he’s not able to fix the issues. So I started looking for other plastic surgery clinics for help. After a few months of searching, I made a decision to have my third revision rhinoplasty, revision chin augmentation and first time zygomatic reduction surgery with eight plastic surgery in Korea. In the very beginning, I was afraid to go to another country to get surgeries done because of the language barrier and the distance. I was concerned that I won’t be able to reach the surgeon if I need to follow up on complications etc. The interpreter was able to convince me on WhatsApp that they don’t put a time limit on the guarantee of their work for international patients, so I decided to give it a try. When I first went into the clinic, I met with the interpreter and the consultant. They were helpful with assisting me deciding which nose shape will suit my face. During my consultation with Dr Joo Oh Young, I felt that the Dr was well prepared. I could sense that he has already talked to the interpreter or read the text messages and saw the pictures I sent. He gave out lots of details of his surgical plans and I appreciated that. He has great English skills and I felt at ease when we were communicating. There are times when I needed to bust out my Google translate to communicate with the nurses after the surgery, but everyone was helpful. I also appreciate that the clinic offered thorough in house health examinations such as blood work, EKG and CT scan before the surgery. I was able to get a copy of the ct scan before and after the surgery by paying additional $35, which I think is reasonable. After the surgery, the dr met with me a few times and made sure there was no infection. He was willing to show me more about the details of the previous surgeon’s work and pointed out the previous surgeon’s mistakes. I stayed in Korea for two weeks, and the clinic offered unlimited laser treatment to help with the swelling. Overall I’m satisfied with my experience and the results of the surgery (please see the pics). My nose looks more symmetrical and natural now compared to before. The hump on the bridge was removed, and my chin is now smooth.

I’m now just over 1 month post-op from my jawline surgery, and I’m so happy with the results so far. Recovery definitely takes patience — swelling was intense in the beginning, but the aftercare was incredible. I visited the clinic daily, Monday to Friday, for 2 weeks of swelling care, hair shampoo service, and oxygen tank sessions, which made the healing process so much more comfortable. Dr. Joo reassured me that the surgery went perfectly, and I can already see the beautiful contour emerging as the swelling goes down. I’m excited to see the final, refined results in the coming months. Highly recommend Dr. Joo for his skill, precision, and supportive approach.

I had rhinoplasty with Dr. Oh-young Joo, and I couldn’t be happier with my decision. From the first consultation, he was kind, attentive, and took the time to address all my concerns in detail. He understood exactly what I wanted — a natural, balanced result — and delivered it perfectly. I’m now just over 1 month post-op, and while swelling is still going down, I already love the results. Dr. Joo reassured me after surgery that everything went perfectly, which gave me so much confidence. The clinic itself was very clean, well-organized, and modern, with great interpreter support girl throughout the process (though Dr. Joo speaks English, so communication was smooth and easy). Aftercare was amazing — I went in daily from Monday to Friday for two weeks to receive swelling treatments, along with hair shampooing and a oxygen tank session. Recovery takes patience, but I can already see the outcome and am excited to watch the final definition emerge in the coming months. I highly recommend Dr. Joo for his skill, precision, and warm approach.

Dr. Joo is a kind and professionnal doctor who speaks perfect English I am very satisfied about my results, which are natural, as I requested and recommend him and Eight Plastic Surgery. The pricing was among the most reasonable one. Reminder that surgery results takes time to settle. To be honest I was very startled at the start because my face looked super stiff, but with time, everything fell into place and now I am very happy about the results !

Had a good rhinoplasty experience with Dr. Joo Oh Young. His English is fluent so it was super easy to communicate with him throughout the process. I wanted a higher bridge and more defined tip and he achieved it with a natural look. Happy with my results after 2 months.

I chose to go with Dr Joo Oh-young at Eight Plastic Surgery as i felt he understood what i was looking for. (How do you explain please make my nose different enough, but not too different, lol?) E.g. Dr Joo advised me that he understood my desire for a natural result but not enough height/ projection would not adequately address my desire to correct a bulbous tip. He also didn't suggest procedures i didn't request and even suggested skipping procedures in case the result may be too subtle (e.g. canthoplasty, which i was okay with). Perhaps the best part is that he also spoke fluent English so I never felt anything was being lost in translation. As for the clinic itself, it can be considered medium-big but not factory-like imo. I liked that they were big enough to have great facilities and resources for dealing with foreigners. But not factory-like so that i was getting a one size fits all approach and not so busy that it took days to get a response. * Procedures For my nose, my concerns were that the bottom of my nose was a bit wide from the front, especially when i smiled. Additionally from the side the projection of the tip was a bit low. For my eyes, I liked my natural eye / lid shape but always felt that slightly longer eyes would be more balanced with the width of my face. After my consultation with Dr Joo, I decided to go ahead with bulbous tip correction and bridge augmentation for my nose and lateral canthoplasty for my eyes. For my nose, we used donated rib and my own ear cartilage for the tip, for the bridge we used a silicone implant. * Results Currently i am only 4 weeks out and still kind of swollen. However, particularly over the last week or so, I feel like i can see the result and it is all heading in the right direction. Some mornings I wake up to a super cute nose that was pretty close to what I had envisioned but then at some point the swelling will hit again. I suppose rhinoplasty is a bit of a waiting game to see results. (Also wish i had known!) When my nose cast came off on Day 7, i was shocked - so much swelling! My nose was huge... super projected and also rather wide. The canthoplasty healing progressed more quickly and the results were subtle but more immediate, even before stitches were removed. But the swelling for rhinoplasty was something else! But indeed, now my nose is not bulbous anymore and more projected. My nose has slimmed from the front view and my side profile is more 3D. All in all, i am really happy with my decision to take the leap and do these plastic surgeries. Dr Joo at Eight did a fantastic job - he understood what i wanted to achieve and I like my new nose more and more everyday. I can't wait to heal fully to see the final result. Its good to share experiences for others considering the same procedure.

I went to Eight Plastic Surgery nearly 3 months ago for several facial procedures/treatments, and have been absolutely LOVING my results! I know the swelling from facial procedures takes a long time to settle down, but now that I’m able to see the beginning of the results, I’m so excited for how they’ll turn out. One of my treatments was with Dr. Oh-Young Joo, and I’m absolutely blown away by how amazing everything’s turning out! I chose Eight PS as my clinic of choice based on how foreigner friendly they were, how kind/enthusiastic they were, how fast they communicated, and how educated they were. They answered all of my questions throughout the booking process happily and quickly, and when I finally consulted with the doctors I was so impressed. I felt so comfortable the entire process and couldn’t be happier with my choice!

I had rhinoplasty done in SK at eight plastic surgery in late April. I had a dorsal hump removal, osteotomy, septorhinoplasty, and tip plasty. I chose Eight based on their natural results and their experience with Caucasian noses. I’m very happy with my results because it’s very natural. Dr. Joo Oh-Young did my surgery and did a great job at making my nose more feminine while keeping the integrity. I told him I didn’t want an “instagram” nose and that I wanted it to fit me still. The clinic was clean and it was easy to communicate from the beginning. I would recommend eight for any foreigners with dorsal hump because I’ve seen how unnatural other clinics’ results are and I felt like I got exactly what I asked for. Healing has been extremely easy for me and I was able to walk around Seoul with a mask for a week. Photos attached are one month post op. Still very swollen but I couldn’t be more pleased with the results!

I chose Dr. Joo for my rhinoplasty because he had good reviews on Reddit, Real self and also Google about his rhinoplasty results. Dr. Joo spoke perfect English and I was able to explain to him exactly the nose I wanted. He helped set my expectations realistically on what could and could not be achieved. I originally had a bulbous, flat nose with tough skin. So he let me know what he could work with regarding my nose. They also did a complimentary MRI of my nose structure. He throughly explained the entire procedure in detail and I felt comfortable going through with the procedure. My nose is still healing and despite the swelling it is still much better than my previous nose and I know it will only get better as the months go on. He also listened to me about wanting to keep my “ethnic” nose. I wanted the nose I had but more defined and natural looking and gave me exactly that. Im still healing because it’s only been a month, but my nose now is still better than it was before and I now it will only continue to get better.

I recently had a procedure done with Dr. Joo Oh Young at Eight Plastic Surgery, and I cannot recommend them highly enough. From the initial consultation to the final follow-up, Dr. Joo demonstrated exceptional skill, professionalism, and compassion. They took the time to thoroughly explain the procedure, answer all of my questions, and ensure I felt completely comfortable with every step of the process. The results exceeded my expectations — natural, beautifully balanced, and truly confidence-boosting.
