Revision Rhino with Facial Fat Injections, my Experience Back in 2018

WORTH IT
Hi! I’m half Asian living in Toronto. Although I’m mixed, my face looks more Asian, guess thanks to my mom’s genetics lol. So, as most Asians I had very low-bridge nose with quite wide nostrils and round-shaped tip. That was the main reason for my first rhino. I always wanted neat nose with high bridge and upturned tip. And since I’m posting my review here for a revision rhino, I guess it’s quite obvious the first surgery didn’t go that smooth. I won’t get into lot of details and to put my story short, the result was very disappointing for me.
So, I proceeded it here in Toronto with a local surgeon and when was searching for a surgeon who can fix it, decided it’d be better to go to someone, who mostly deals with Asians. Came across with a forum, it’s called Purse Forum and found out a lot about Korean Plastic Surgery. So, made a list of places, contacted them one by one and finally chose Regen with Dr.Lee
For not being there alone, I also brought a friend of mine, who ended up with proceeding full face fat graft too, I got pretty good discount. We did make all appointments in advance and in order not to waste our time, decided to proceed surgeries on the same day right after our consultation. So, overall it took me an entire day of spending in their clinic, luckily enough there was no need to stay overnight but I had to come back the next morning for cotton tampons removal from my nostrils.
We spent around 2 weeks in Seoul. Since our recovery went very smoothly we able to return home as planned with no delays. It’s been over a year post op and my results look great and very natural. Btw, we decided not to change the silicone implant as the bridge as Dr.Lee said was high enough to make my face look proportional but he did change a bit my tip. Not it’s finally upturned just as I always wanted and from the side nose looks very neat.
I’m currently thinking about proceeding a double eyelid surgery, to make the crease a bit higher and also considering to ger a fat graft retouch. Still haven’t decided on dates but will definitely update if there are any news!

I just checked the Korean association of plastic surgeons and it looks like Dr. oh and dr. Lee are both suspended ! Anyone can go to the website and check his credentials! http://prskorea.co.kr/English/mobile/index.asp
I can’t believe he is still operating his hospital and he is suspended
How dangerous

wanted to update my review for so long but for some reason forgot every time hahaha
so, finally updating it now
after about 2 years I think, I decided that the bridge still wasn't high enough. although, I was pretty satisfied with how everything came out, I wanted to make it even higher so I went to regen again for changing the implant
I also got some facial fat injections and decided to repeat the procedure as the result from the first one was gorg!
uploaded pics are the latest haha, good luck!
