Mechanical parking in the building (large sedans, electric vehicles and SUVs cannot be parked). Rhinoplasty reshapes the nasal bridge, tip and length in proportion to the whole face. The clinic website states that it adjusts the nasolabial angle (the angle between the nose and upper lip) and the columella (the column between the nostrils) length, uses custom cutting of the tip cartilage with 2-layer (double) fixation, and uses either a 3D-customised implant or autologous cartilage. The detailed rhinoplasty page (/Detailed_Rhinoplasty) has the same content.

Procedures
Risks and side effects
- The clinic states that, depending on individual recovery, common side effects such as bleeding, inflammation and infection can occur after surgery.
- Swelling and bruising can occur, and asymmetry or a shape different from what was expected may require further correction.
- Results vary with individual factors such as skin thickness and cartilage condition.
- When an implant is used, implant show-through, movement or tilting, and contracture (surrounding tissue tightening and shortening the nose) may require revision surgery.
- When cartilage or dermis is harvested, the donor site (inside the nose, ear, rib or buttock) may have discomfort such as pain or a scar.
Results and recovery vary by individual. Possible complications are explained during consultation.
Frequently asked questions
Why is the nasolabial angle adjusted?
The nasolabial angle is where the nose meets the upper lip and it affects how the profile looks. The clinic gives 95–110 degrees for women and 90–95 degrees for men as its design reference; the actual angle is decided in consultation based on facial proportions and condition.
What is 2-layer fixation?
The clinic describes 2-layer fixation as custom-cutting the tip cartilage and then fixing it in two stages. Even after fixation, the shape can change depending on tissue condition and healing.
Which autologous cartilage is used?
The clinic lists septal cartilage, rib cartilage, ear cartilage and autologous dermis. Septal cartilage is harvested inside the nose with no other incision; rib cartilage is used where support and durability are needed; ear cartilage is used for the tip or when septal cartilage is insufficient; dermis is used where the skin over the bridge is thin or soft tissue is lacking. The material is decided after examination and consultation.
What tests are done prior to surgery?
According to the clinic, a 3D-CT scan analyses the internal structure of the nose, cartilage, skin layers and functional problems, and the results are reflected in the surgical plan. A nasal CT scan is listed separately on the clinic fee schedule at KRW 50,000–100,000 (VAT not included).
