Rhinoplasty
Rhinoplasty changes the shape or proportions of the nose by working on its bone, cartilage and supporting tissues. A useful consultation in Korea addresses appearance and nasal breathing together, then explains the proposed structural changes, incisions and material choices. Open and closed approaches describe access; neither is a universal measure of surgical quality.
Read the procedure guide →Upper eyelids
Upper eyelid surgery may remove excess skin, alter an eyelid crease or address another identified eyelid concern. Double eyelid surgery specifically creates or defines a crease. These goals should be separated from correction of a drooping lid margin or a low brow, because each involves different anatomy and may require a different procedure.
Read the procedure guide →At your consultation
Explain the change you want and what you would prefer to preserve. Bring details of previous procedures and ask the doctor to connect the proposed approach with your individual anatomy.
- How does my anatomy and medical history affect your recommendation?
- What alternatives would you consider, including postponing treatment?
- Which risks are most relevant to my case, and how would they be managed?
- Who will provide follow-up after I return home?
Discuss current specialist registration, the doctor’s role in your operation and who will provide follow-up. Training, professional membership and specialist certification describe different things.
