Client Review: From a Botched Nose Job to a Successful Revision with Korea MediGlam

I’ve always been insecure about my nose. Growing up, my family and friends would tease me about it. My dad has a big, bulbous nose, and I ended up inheriting the same shape. Every time I smiled, I noticed how my nose wings would spread out to my cheeks, making my face look unbalanced. It always bothered me, and I knew I had to do something about it.

In 2020, I made the decision to go through with rhinoplasty and chose a clinic in Gangnam Apgujeong. I won’t mention the full name, but anyone who has been in Korea knows that this clinic often changes its name when things go wrong. At the time, I was naive and didn’t know much about rhinoplasty. I consulted with three clinics and picked this one because it was the most affordable, and the doctor seemed empathetic and understanding. He immediately pointed out my concerns and assured me that his technique would be perfect for my bulbous nose. He suggested raising my nose tip using septum cartilage and advised against narrowing the bridge due to my thick skin. I trusted him, hoping this surgery would finally give me the nose I had always dreamed of.

However, the result was far from what I expected. Instead of a refined nose, it became even more prominent. The tip was raised, but it ended up deviating to the left side, which was not only unattractive but also caused me to have trouble breathing through one nostril. I never had any breathing issues before, but after the surgery, I was constantly congested or had a runny nose, especially at night. When I went back to the clinic, they blamed my natural bone structure, saying the deviation was always there and that the surgery only made it more noticeable. I was devastated because I had no such issues before the surgery.

Despite multiple complaints, the clinic offered me a revision surgery, but I had lost all trust in them. I couldn’t return to the same doctor and clinic that had caused all these problems. I felt completely lost, and the experience had shattered my confidence. I didn’t know where to turn next.

That’s when a close friend, who had undergone successful surgery with a well-known and reputable clinic in Korea, recommended Korea MediGlam. Initially, I was hesitant. After being burned once, I was wary of trusting anyone again. But my friend spoke highly of Korea MediGlam, explaining how they specialize in connecting clients with trusted clinics. I decided to reach out and see what they could do for me.

From the very first interaction with Korea MediGlam, I felt I was in the right hands. Zoey, who guided me through the process, was incredibly professional and understanding. She listened carefully to my story, made sure she understood all my concerns, and reassured me that they would help me find the right clinic for my revision. She carefully explained the process, from selecting a clinic to helping me choose the best surgeon for my case. They took the time to give me all the information I needed, and I never felt any pressure to make a decision.

Through their careful guidance, I was introduced to Dr. Yoon, a highly reputable surgeon specializing in complex revision rhinoplasties. Zoey arranged a thorough consultation with Dr. Yoon, where I felt completely at ease discussing my concerns and goals. Dr. Yoon listened patiently and provided a clear plan for how he would address my issues, including the deviated tip and the overall balance of my nose.

The revision surgery was performed with much more precision and care, and the results were incredible. Not only did the shape of my nose improve, but I was also able to breathe properly again. The deviated tip was corrected, and my face now looked much more harmonious. I finally felt like I had the nose I had always wanted—one that not only looked better but also allowed me to breathe freely.

I am beyond grateful to Korea MediGlam for their expertise and support throughout this entire journey. They helped me navigate a difficult and complex process and, most importantly, restored my confidence. I can finally smile and laugh without feeling self-conscious about my nose. If it weren’t for Korea MediGlam, I don’t know where I would be right now. If you are considering rhinoplasty or any other cosmetic surgery, I highly recommend reaching out to them first. They will connect you with the best professionals and ensure you’re in safe hands every step of the way.
