Banobagi is a busy hospital, but Dr. Oh takes his time during the consultation. We spent 30 minutes looking at my bone structure on a screen. He actually talked me out of a more expensive jaw surgery because he said my chin only needed a minor sliding genioplasty. I value that level of integrity.

I had revision rhinoplasty and a chin implant with Dr. Oh. After a failed surgery in my home country, he was very honest about what he could fix. He is a ‘doctor’s doctor’—very professional and technical. The recovery suites at Banobagi felt like a hotel, and the 24-hour nursing care was essential.

The Confidence of a Slimmer Profile

I did face contouring and an endotine forehead lift. When I met with Doctor Oh, he was great at listening to my needs and gave advice based on his 20 years of experience. I think the doctors did a really great job making my face symmetrical. Now that my cheeks have been moved and they don't stick out as far on the sides, my eyes look so big! It really only took a week for the main swelling to disappear. I got so much self-confidence back.

Dramatic Change and Natural Balance

I had a mandibular reduction surgery with chin and cheekbone cutting. It was a very complicated and highly invasive operation, but Dr. Oh made me feel so safe. My lower jaws were noticeably reduced and my chin became much smaller. He also handled a rhinoplasty revision for me at the same time. I am beyond satisfied with how my surgeries came out. He is a brilliant doctor with huge experience, very kind, and extremely skilled. My results are 100% satisfying.

A New Life with V-Line Precision

I flew to Seoul from Los Angeles for V-line surgery, and I can confidently say it was the best decision I've ever made. I chose Dr. Chang-Hyun Oh after months of research, and his reputation for facial bone contouring is 100% deserved. I had a very square jawline and a protruding chin that made my face look heavy. Dr. Oh recommended a combination of jaw shaving and sliding genioplasty. Three months post-op, I can't stop looking in the mirror. My face is slimmer, more feminine, and still looks completely natural.
