Question 1

What is Kobijou Rhinoplasty Clinic and what makes it different from other clinics in Seoul?

Accepted Answer

[**Kobijou Rhinoplasty Clinic**](https://www.kobijouclinic.com/) is a 100% nose-surgery-only specialist clinic in Seoul, South Korea, led by Dr. Sang-Min Hyun — a board-certified otolaryngologist with over 20 years of exclusive rhinoplasty experience. Unlike general plastic surgery centers, every consultation and every surgery is performed directly by Dr. Hyun himself, ensuring the highest level of personalized care and consistency. The clinic combines aesthetic precision with functional excellence, meaning your nose will look natural and breathe better too.

Question 2

Every procedure is customized to each patient's facial anatomy and medical needs.

Question 3

Who is the doctor at Kobijou Rhinoplasty Clinic?

Accepted Answer

[**Dr. Sang-Min Hyun**](https://www.kobijouclinic.com/doctors/sangmin-hyun) is the Chief Director and sole rhinoplasty surgeon at Kobijou Rhinoplasty Clinic. He holds a medical degree from Seoul National University, a Master's and Doctorate from Asan Medical Center, and has over 20 years of exclusive experience in rhinoplasty and nasal surgery. He is a board-certified otolaryngologist, a member of the Korean Academy of Facial Plastic and Reconstructive Surgery, and a Clinical Professor at the Korean College of Cosmetic Surgery.

Question 4

What is functional rhinoplasty and how is it different from cosmetic nose surgery?

Accepted Answer

[**Functional rhinoplasty**](https://www.kobijouclinic.com/specialties/functional-rhinoplasty-4) focuses on correcting structural issues inside the nose that affect breathing — such as a deviated septum, enlarged turbinates, or nasal valve collapse — rather than changing the external appearance. Cosmetic rhinoplasty, on the other hand, focuses on improving the shape and aesthetics of the nose. At Kobijou, Dr. Hyun often combines both approaches so patients enjoy both improved breathing and a more harmonious appearance.

Question 5

The clinic's philosophy ensures that every patient receives only what is truly needed for the best outcome — nothing more, nothing less.
