My Rhinoplasty Experience So Far

I had rhinoplasty with Dr. Kim to reduce a hump and refine the tip. The surgery involved cartilage from my ear as well as donated rib cartilage.

I’m about 8 weeks post-op now, so I know it’s still early and that swelling, especially in the tip, can take time to go down. Because of that, I’m not judging the final result yet — this is more about my experience so far.

The surgery itself went smoothly and the clinic has been responsive during recovery. When I had concerns, they checked my photos with the doctor and explained what could still change with healing.

Right now my nose is still swollen and evolving, so I’m giving it the time recommended before forming a final opinion. I plan to update later once healing is further along.

So far, my experience with Dr. Kim and the clinic has been professional, and I appreciate the follow-up during recovery.
