Still my best decision
WORTH IT$15,000
I am still in love with my nose and there’s no complications! I still would do it again if I had to redo it again. My face is balanced and he didn’t make my nose too small! I am glad I listened to him and went with a nose that fits my face!

2020 update!
Hi everyone!
It’s been a while since I’ve updated this post last. Some updates is my allergies have gotten a lot better. No more congestion every week. I actually don’t have to take allergy medicine anymore. My body is use to all the airflow so now I no longer use my inhaler. I used to have athletic asthma but it’s no more. I have been able to do 12 mile hikes with more ease.
Aesthetically, my nose is perfect. It’s the perfect size and height that fits my face. It feels normal and I’m able to blow my nose. My profile looks amazing. It’s honestly one of my favorite features haha. And when you look straight on, I look like my normal self! Which I wanted.
I am very happy with my choice of choosing Dr. Yoo. I will attach a bunch of pictures so you guys can see what it looks like in all angles :)

Hi Gwen, u look beautiful and your new nose sits so beautifully and naturally. But I'm curious if the rib removal causes any discomfort or any side effect at all?

Revision surgery! Walk in the Park
Hi everyone! I thought I'd update this post but I got revision surgery! Surprise haha. Long story short, when I cleaned my nose during the healing time period. I pushed a qtip to the side of my columella too hard and heard a pop. I didn't think much about it but noticed my nose start to droop and lean to the left (the direction of how I pushed the columella ;.;). Since the tip started to droop with the no support, a jump on my bridge formed. Dr Yoo recommended a revision to fix it. I am post op day 6 today and man. This surgery this time around isn't bad at all. Haven't taken any pain killers and have been walking and slightly running around even with the second rib cartilage removal. My nose tip is much higher this time around but still looks natural :) he fixed my columella so my nose is now straight and even! I'm more gentle with cleaning now after my mishaps haha. Follow me on Instagram if you have any questions or want to see more photos. I try to update my real self as much as I can. But Instagram is a bit more easier haha. My username on there is GwenXAnh , I'm also a makeup artist! So if you're into that. You can check out my work <3

What's up with the you look less Asian comments? Your born nose had a large dorsal hump which is not typical in an Asian nose to begin with . You were always unique:-) I just want to say that you look beautiful. Dr. Yoo did a beautiful job on your nose . I'm so glad he was able to fix it with no problems.

Did you have your second piece of rib cartilage taken from your chest? And how much did you pay for your revision?
May 18, 2018
Yes I did! my second piece of rib cartilage was the 6th rib. instead of #5. & the prices have changed but the surgeons fee was waived since I was a previous patient and just had to pay for the anesthesia & the actual operation again. I don't want to disclose the amount since its been a couple of years now since I last went but it was below $7k for the revision.
