Nose

Rhinoplasty (nose surgery) in Seoul, Korea

Every rhinoplasty at Grand is planned with a pre-operative 3D-CT of the nasal bones and cartilage. Most nose procedures take 1–1.5 hours under IV sedation, with same-day discharge and stitches out after 1–2 weeks; rib cartilage and some revision cases take longer under general anesthesia.

Frequently asked questions

Why is 3D-CT needed before rhinoplasty?

Grand considers it essential: it shows the bone and cartilage structure so the surgeon can plan precisely and avoid surprises.

How long should I stay for rhinoplasty?

About 7–10 days, until stitches and splint are removed.
