I always dreamed of this perfect dolly eyes like the K-pop artists on TV. As an Asian, eye shape takes up a large part of how you look. Very asymmetric eyes has bothered me ever since and this hasn’t been corrected with the first surgery and this was the biggest issue for me to have a consultation with the plastic surgeon.
I wanted to make my eyes to look dolly and even. When I researched about the Asian eyelid surgery, I found out about the extension of the eye width. Well, basically I can have an incision in the corner of my eyes.
I was also interested in changing the shape of my nose from my previous rhinoplasty. I still felt that I did not have the sharp nose I’ve been wanting. I once had rhinoplasty couple of years ago, but still not satisfied with the result. So I wanted to make a correction to my nose for the last time.
I’ve done enough research and enough studies on the surgeries I would be facing, so here I am trying to share the experience of my own surgery which might help others who would need information and experiences to make up a decision, just like what I did.
So now I am very ready to get this thing going. I cannot wait to see the difference already.

How much was your rhinoplasty? Also did you use cartilage?
February 4, 2017
It was around 5,000,000 KRW and yes, I had cartilage graft. I had used my nose cartilage from my previous surgery and there wasn't enough amount for it so also used ear cartilage as well.

I look more like myself now after doing lots and lots of cold pack that I was told from many people around me who had similar surgery. I was told not to do cold pack since I have done fat grafting. I just be extra careful not to encounter with the areas I've done my fat graft while doing cold pack. well, it was a little troublesome to apply it besides my forehead, front cheek, but I think I did well.
I really think the deswelling went very well and I was able to face myself faster than I thought LOL

The nurses at the clinic removed a huge cotton stick the day after my surgery and this gave me such a relief. I didn't think this little thing up in my nostril would bother me that much, but I guess it was worth it to do that since it protects the shape of my unstable nose.

I feel much better as you can tell...LOL
I will update my recovery and share with you guys out there who are seeking for some real experience review just like me before the surgery.

Hello, I found your post very relatable as I have asymmetrical eyelids and I don't like my nose either. I've been contemplating on flying to South Korea to get plastic surgery done but as a foreigner, I'm a bit skeptical. Do you have an advice? It would be very much appreciated, thank you.
