Is it common for Korean surgeons to prioritize natural vs. high nose bridge aesthetics? What should I expect during consultation?

For anyone who has experience with rhinoplasty in Korea, I’m curious about the aesthetic preferences and approach Korean surgeons typically have. Is it common for them to prioritize a more natural-looking result, or do they often aim for a higher, more defined nose bridge — especially for international patients? I know beauty standards can vary, and I’m wondering how much personal preference is factored into the consultation process. What should I expect during the consultation — do they offer digital simulations, discuss different implant options (like silicone vs. Gore-Tex), and explain how the final result will suit your facial proportions? I’d love to hear about others’ experiences or advice on how to clearly communicate your desired outcome with a Korean surgeon.

When I visited Arumline Plastic Surgery, Skin & Beauty Clinic for a rhinoplasty consultation, I was surprised by how much focus they placed on achieving a natural look that suits your face. In Korea, many surgeons like Dr. Lee Joong-geun prioritize harmony over just a high nose bridge. During my consultation, Dr. Lee explained the different nose shapes and showed examples based on my face type. He asked about my expectations and gave honest feedback on what would look best and age well. It felt very personalized and not one-size-fits-all.
