UK Rhinoplasty - Travel abroad or do it domestically?

Hey everyone,

I'm looking for some advice about rhinoplasty. Do you think it's worth travelling abroad for the procedure?

I'm based in the UK, but many of the surgeons here seem to charge £12k+ for results that, in my opinion, aren't significantly better than what I've seen elsewhere. My goal isn't a perfect or ultra-sculpted nose. I just want a mostly natural-looking result with good symmetry.

My main concerns are a bulbous tip, some asymmetry, and a slightly crooked hump (although the hump doesn't bother me much). Honestly, I'd be happy with any improvement as long as it suits my face, as I feel my current nose tanks my attractiveness by a huge margin

I've been quoted around £5.2k for a rhinoplasty and £1k for a septoplasty at Cocoline in Korea. They've told me they can address the bulbous tip and asymmetry, and I've actually had a minor cosmetic procedure in Korea before. The experience was very smooth, so travelling there again doesn't worry me.

Would travelling abroad for rhinoplasty be a bad idea, or would you recommend staying in the UK? If not Korea, are there any other countries you'd suggest? Turkey isn't somewhere I'm particularly interested in for this as I've seen their results, and what can happen, and it scares me.
