    I had the Hiko procedure done, and it hurt a little bit during, but I held on because I wanted to look beautiful. Before, my nostrils were flared out, but after the procedure, they got much narrower and I'm so happy! The photo after the procedure is one I took right after.

    Procedure received, name of the doctor, pain and recovery period I received treatment for cold symptoms, and after getting an injection for symptom relief, I was prescribed cold medicine. I don't remember the name of the doctor who treated me. The injection only stung a little when given, and afterwards there was no significant pain. I was advised that if I consistently took the prescribed medication and got plenty of rest, my symptoms should improve significantly in about 3 to 7 days. Experience with the treatment I visited because I was uncomfortable with nasal congestion, runny nose, and sneezing, and from start to finish, the care was very kind. The doctor carefully checked my current symptoms and explained clearly why these symptoms were happening and the treatment options, which made me feel reassured. The injection treatment was done quickly, and the cold medicine I would take afterwards was prescribed based on my symptoms. The staff were also friendly, and the hospital was clean, allowing for a comfortable atmosphere during the visit. Overall, it was a satisfactory treatment experience, and I felt that I would like to return to this hospital when I have cold symptoms again.

    I got to know Dr. Jeong Dong-woo through a friend's introduction and decided to undergo a revision rhinoplasty that I had been contemplating for a long time. During the consultation, the doctor carefully examined my entire facial balance and the shape of my nose, and created a personalized treatment plan that accurately reflected the line I wanted. It was not just about the surgery; he provided a systematic explanation of the recovery process and expected outcomes, which reassured me.

    I consulted with Dr. Lee Jong-ik. I visited because my nasal congestion was severe. He didn't give me any procedures for fear of causing a nosebleed. I was really struggling with my blocked nose, and he just gave me a prescription. He suggested we try medication first. The doctor explained everything well. There's usually a long wait time to see Dr. Lee Jong-ik, but time passed quickly and I was called in sooner than expected. The location is great, close to the subway. The clinic is on the 6th floor. There were a lot of people in the afternoon, which I guess means they're doing well. He thoroughly examined my nasal passages with a laser, so even though the wait was long, the consultation was short, and I appreciated that.

    A few days ago, I had a sore throat and a stuffy nose, so I went to a local ENT and got some medication. I took it for 5 days, and while my throat feels fine, my nose is still blocked, I'm having a runny nose, and mucus keeps dripping down the back of my throat. I was hesitant to go back to that clinic because there were so many people waiting, but since my child caught a cold and we were at the pediatric clinic, I decided to get checked out too. Dr. Hanul, who always sees me, was off on my recent visits, so I had seen other doctors. Thankfully, she was there that day, and I could see her. All three doctors are great, but personally, I prefer Dr. Hanul because she is gentle and kind during the appointments.

    UnverifiedHana ENT Hospital

    I've been coughing a lot lately, my nose is constantly running, and I'm so stuffed up that it's really uncomfortable. It seems like my allergies have flared up. So, I went to Han ENT clinic. They did a nasal endoscopy and found that while I have rhinitis, my nasal passages are quite swollen, so they mentioned I would need to take quite a bit of antibiotics. I personally have some reluctance towards antibiotics, so I asked for a smaller dosage, and they kindly agreed to prescribe that. The swelling was significant, so I got a two-week supply of medication, and I was told to come back after finishing it. The doctor was very friendly throughout the consultation, and the hospital was comfortable and nice. It's getting hot, and I really want to recover quickly and live comfortably again.

    For several days, I've been suffering from a stuffy nose and runny nose, and my headache got so severe that I decided to visit the ENT at Asan Medical Center in Seoul. Since it's a large general hospital, the waiting time was a bit long and complicated, but their examination system was so organized that I was able to go through the tests and consultations in order as guided. The doctor carefully examined the inside of my nose and, preventing a simple cold from progressing to sinusitis, provided a clear diagnosis along with a prescription. Without showing any annoyance about my symptoms, the doctor explained everything thoroughly and professionally, which gave me a deep sense of trust typical of a large hospital. After taking the prescribed medication, I noticed a significant improvement in my symptoms very quickly, and I'm extremely satisfied.

    For the past few days, I haven’t had a runny nose, but my nose and ears felt clogged, so I visited the ENT clinic I usually go to because it’s close to home. They also offer morning appointments on Saturdays, so it’s really convenient for people who work. Since it was a clinic I visited often, I checked in comfortably and was number two in line. After waiting about five minutes, I was seen. They inserted a camera into my nose and ears to examine them carefully. They found inflammation and mucus that I hadn’t even noticed, disinfected the area, and cleared out my nose. They did the same for my ears, of course. I really felt that everyone was much kinder than usual......!! I was very satisfied with the appointment, and my symptoms definitely improved after taking the medication. I would 100% visit again.

    UnverifiedBlue Ear Nose Throat Clinic

    I visited an ENT clinic because my throat had been irritated and my nose had been congested for several days. After checking in and waiting, I went into the consultation room and explained when the symptoms had started and which times were especially uncomfortable. The doctor first asked me to open my mouth to examine the inside of my throat and also looked directly inside my nose. They explained that my throat was swollen and that there were also areas of swelling inside my nose. They asked whether I usually breathe through my mouth when my nose is blocked and whether I had a runny nose. After the consultation, I was told how to take the prescribed medication and what activities would be best to avoid until my symptoms settled down. Being able to have my condition checked directly in the consultation room and hear the explanation made it easier for me to understand what was causing the discomfort I had been feeling.

    My child caught a cold and had symptoms of a runny nose and congestion, so we visited the clinic. Fortunately, there weren't many patients waiting when we got there, and we were able to see the doctor in less than 5 minutes. It was reassuring to see the same doctor we've always visited, as they quickly assessed my child's condition. The symptoms weren't too severe, so the process was quick with just a simple check-up and necessary prescriptions, allowing my child not to wait too long and feel uncomfortable. Overall, I think this clinic is a great place to visit without worry for light colds or early symptoms since the care is quick and efficient. It's also a good idea to call ahead to check if there are many patients waiting before going.

    I suddenly caught a cold and looked up nearby ENT clinics with good reviews. Maybe because it’s cold season, there were a lot of patients waiting, but I didn't have to wait long before being seen. When I told the doctor that my nose was very blocked and I was coughing a lot, they carefully examined me with something like an endoscope. They told me there was a lot of inflammation around my nose, which was causing my cough, and prescribed antibiotics as well. After taking the week’s worth of prescription, I was relieved to find that my cold had improved. I was worried about taking additional antibiotics, but thankfully it worked out. The nursing staff were friendly, and the equipment was good, so I was satisfied.

    I visited because I had a scratchy throat and nose due to a cold. Once you catch a cold, it seems like it takes 2-3 weeks to get through the stages of runny nose, sore throat, coughing, severe coughing, and phlegm, so I'm more afraid of catching one these days. Last week, my symptoms were mild, so I went in for a first visit and they addressed my nose and runny nose, but my cough got worse, so I went back for a second visit and got targeted treatment for my throat. Now, it seems like I'm finally beginning to improve. It doesn't look like we live in a world where you can just take one medication and be done with a cold anymore. Dr. Yun Young-geun has been practicing in this area for over 30 years; he's a veteran and truly a gentle person. His way of listening and paying attention to the patient's concerns is particularly impressive. However, I was a bit disappointed that during transition seasons or cold outbreaks, there are just too many patients, leading to some discomfort in waiting.

    I stopped by the hospital before it opened since I was feeling under the weather and registered for a check-up. I’ve had acute sinusitis in the past, so when my stuffy nose got really bad, I went in right away. Luckily, they said the swelling in my nasal mucosa was due to a cold and it hadn’t progressed to sinusitis. They always explain the symptoms in detail and the treatment process, which makes me trust them completely. They were careful with the antibiotic prescription and even though my nose was swollen, they skillfully got rid of the thick yellow mucus deep in my sinuses without any pain, which left me very satisfied. I would highly recommend this hospital to anyone who is usually scared of nasal treatment at ENT clinics. I suggest going early since there’s often a long wait for the director’s consultations.

    I've had 5 sessions of Capri laser at Mei Pure Clinic in Gwanggyo, and I'm currently taking acne medication. Fortunately, since I'm on the acne medication, I haven't had too many big or small breakouts, so I went ahead and scheduled 5 sessions of Pico Fraxel for my acne scars that I've been putting off for a while.^^ The scars are pretty old and quite extensive, but thankfully after numbing, I found the Pico Fraxel procedure to be more tolerable than I expected! The pain was just a bit sharp, and my face's redness calmed down quickly after the Pico Fraxel treatment, so I'm quite satisfied with the results now! Since the scars are so old, I think 5 sessions might not be enough, but I plan to keep going for the remaining sessions and consider some additional treatments.^^

    I finally made it past the dreaded three-month mark after my nose surgery. In the beginning, the area between my eyebrows was so swollen that I looked a bit like Avatar, and I was anxious every day that the shape might look strange. But after three months, all those worries completely disappeared. Now, the silicone implant along my nasal bridge and the septal cartilage shaping my tip blend perfectly with my face, and my nose has settled into a beautiful shape without looking obviously done. Most of all, I’m happy that the characteristic bluntness of my bulbous nose is gone and that I have a sophisticated, straight-to-slightly-upturned shape. I still feel a little soreness when I touch the tip of my nose, but the tightness when I smile has almost completely gone away, and I can wash my face and put on makeup comfortably like before. I love how naturally it turned out—so much so that many people around me can’t even tell I had work done!

    I had a really bad runny nose and stuffy nose for a few days due to a cold, so I visited a nearby ENT clinic. The wait time from check-in to the consultation wasn't long, which made it comfortable to get treated. The doctor carefully asked about each of my symptoms and explained in detail whether it was just a simple cold or if it overlapped with allergic rhinitis, which put my mind at ease. They checked my nose with an endoscope and explained my current condition clearly while I looked at the screen, which made it easy to understand. They prescribed medication tailored to my symptoms and kindly shared tips on what to be careful of during a cold and ways to help recover quickly, which I really appreciated. They are very kind.

  • How much does nasal surgery cost on average?

    Hello, for functional rhinoplasty, it is possible to file for reimbursement if a functional issue is diagnosed, while cosmetic rhinoplasty will incur costs. The price for nose surgery ranges from 890,000 to VAT per area, such as the tip or bridge of the nose, and there can be significant variations in costs depending on the materials used and the surgical method. We can provide a detailed cost estimate during your visit. There are options for cost adjustments through our staff, so I recommend scheduling a consultation first. :)
