[Health Column] How to Restore a Peanut-Shaped Face in Middle Age with PRP Fat Grafting[10]
hello, Garnet Plastic Surgery Director Baek In-su no see. As I entered middle age I hear people say, “My face looks wider from the side” or “My cheekbones look more prominent.” This change is often called a "peanut face." 🥜 It's not just a change that comes from losing weight. Aging of facial structure It often appears as it progresses together. today Facial shape restoration through PRP fat grafting About Let's summarize the key points you should know. ✨ Why do middle-aged people develop a 'peanut face'? 🟢 In middle-aged faces, changes in fat, ligaments, and skin occur simultaneously. The face as a whole in youth Uniform volume and elasticity while maintaining soft Egg-shaped outline It is often seen. However, after middle age, the following changes occur simultaneously: 🔸 Midfacial fat atrophy 🔸 Volume reduction in the center of the cheek and under the cheekbones 🔸 Lower face sagging due to ligament laxity 🔸 Loss of skin elasticity As these changes overlap, ✔ The crown and the center of the ball are sunken ✔ The clown is relatively prominent ✔ The impression that the face is spread apart from side to side in other words, Peanut-shaped face shape may appear. 📌 Important point! This change is not simply due to weight changes. As a result of complex changes in facial structure That is the point. What effects can I expect from PRP fat grafting? 🟢Helps complement lost volume and create soft facial contours. PRP fat grafting is a procedure that uses PRP (platelet-rich plasma) together with your own fat to supplement facial volume. Here are some changes you can expect when improving a middle-aged peanut-shaped face with PRP fat grafting: 🔸 Relieves sunken cheeks and forehead 🔸 Clown relief buffer 🔸 Restoring soft, oval contours 🔸 Relieves tired and sharp facial expressions 🔸 Improves skin texture and fine wrinkles (auxiliary effect) But there is one important point. ⚠️ In case of severe sagging Volume supplementation alone may not provide sufficient improvement. In this case Consider a concurrent strategy with lifting treatment. You can expect more natural results. What is the most important thing in PRP fat grafting? 🟢The key is not to put in too much, but to put in correctly. A middle-aged face A condition in which skin elasticity and supporting ligaments are weakened no see. So if you overfill the area under the cheekbones or cheekbones, ⚠️ Makes your face look bigger ⚠️ Sagging is more noticeable ⚠️ A peanut-shaped face can be further emphasized. So there is one important principle. ✔ It's better to put it in accurately than to put in a lot Especially in middle-aged faces 🔸 Restore central volume 🔸 Suppress excessive outer volume This balance is important. Why does it matter how deep you put the fat? 🟢 Layer selection determines natural results. In PRP fat grafting, Fat Which layer do you inject into? is very important. The balance between the following two layers is particularly important. ✔ Deep plane above the periosteum → Structural volume support role ✔ Subcutaneous layer → Naturally flowing volume formation if ⚠️ If you inject only a shallow layer → it may look bumpy ⚠️ If only the deep layer is injected → artificial protrusion may occur. so Layer-by-layer balanced injection This is an important point. Is PRP fat grafting always a safe procedure? 🟢Because the facial area has complex blood vessels, skill is important. On the face The vascular structure is very complexly distributed It is done. The following areas in particular require attention: 🔸 Clown lower body 🔸 False face area 🔸 Temple area These areas are Because there is a risk of vascular damage The surgeon's anatomical understanding and experience are important. 📌 Common misconceptions ❌ “Mixing PRP is absolutely safe.” → Actual safety is Anatomical proficiency of the surgeon It depends on. Is it better to complete PRP fat grafting in one session? 🟢A step-by-step approach may look more natural on a middle-aged face. In middle-aged faces, the following variables exist: 🔸 Fat engraftment rate 🔸 Difference in skin elasticity 🔸 Individual differences in absorption rate So I forced myself to do it all at once Overcorrection Rather than doing ✔ Restore primary structure ✔ Secondary fine-tuning if necessary Same as Step-by-step approach strategy This may lead to more natural results. What should I check before the procedure? 🟢When choosing a hospital, it is important to consider how they analyze and design your facial structure. Here are some factors to consider when considering a procedure: 🔸 Understanding facial anatomy 🔸 Layer-by-layer injection experience 🔸 A design philosophy that avoids overcorrection 🔸 Whether or not an emergency response system is in place You may also want to refer to the following checklist: ✔ How to prepare PRP ✔ Fat refining process ✔ Whether only one treatment is recommended ✔ Whether or not to explain the necessity of concurrent lifting 📌 Important Points What's more important than cost How to analyze and design facial structure no see. FAQ Q1. What causes a peanut-shaped face in middle age? A1. It is a structural aging phenomenon that occurs through the combined effects of atrophy of the temples and mid-face fat, relaxation of the retaining ligaments, and sagging of the lower face. Q2. Is improvement possible with PRP fat grafting alone? A2. If sagging is the main cause, it may help, but if the sagging is severe, a lifting treatment may be considered as well. Q3. Will adding more fat produce better results? A3. No. Excessive volume injection can actually make the face appear larger or unnatural, so precise placement and balance are important. Conclusion ✨ ✔ Middle-aged peanut-shaped face Structural aging, not just lack of volume no see. ✔ PRP fat grafting A method of restoring facial shape This could be it. But the key that determines the outcome is ✨ Not putting in too much, but putting in just the right amount ✨ Central volume restoration + lateral resection ✨ Balanced design considering deflection no see. Because facial structure and aging rate vary from person to person, It is important to determine the right method through accurate diagnosis and consultation.

백인수 원장26.03.04Views 535Likes 3 [Health Column] Horizontal wrinkles on the bridge of the nose and drooping eyelids, why do they occur together? The solution is 'forehead lift'! ✨[6]
hello, Director Baek In-soo of Garnet Plastic Surgery no see. Have you ever been worried about sagging upper eyelids, only to be flustered when you suddenly discovered deep horizontal wrinkles etched on the bridge of your nose? They seem like concerns about completely different body parts, but in fact, these two are Descent of forehead tissue It is often a concern that originates from a single root. Today, let's explore the root cause of that heavy expression and how to solve it together! 🫧 Why do drooping eyelids and wrinkles on the bridge of the nose always appear as a set? ? 🟢 This is because the forehead tissue, pulled down by gravity, causes the structure around the eyes to collapse. Over time, facial tissues lose elasticity and gradually sag downward due to the influence of gravity. In particular, when the forehead and eyebrows sag downward, the skin of the upper eyelids overlaps, eyelid drooping This appears. The problem doesn't end here! When our vision is obstructed by drooping eyelids, we unconsciously try to open our eyes wide. Repeatedly use the forehead and glabella muscles You will end up doing it. In this process Horizontal wrinkles on the bridge of the nose It is about settling deeply. 💡 It is easier to understand if you think of it not simply as a problem with the eyelids, but as a 'chain reaction' starting from the forehead! What exactly is the role of a forehead lift? ? 🟢 It restores sagging forehead and eyebrows to their original positions, improving the fundamental structure. . Forehead lifting is not simply a surgery to pull the skin. The goal is to restore balance to the upper face by entirely rearranging the tissue layers supporting the forehead and eyebrows. • Natural improvement : When the eyebrows are raised, the overlapping eyelids naturally spread out. ✨ • Muscle tension relief : You no longer need to overuse your forehead muscles to open your eyes. • Wrinkle reduction : As muscle overuse is reduced, you can expect the horizontal wrinkles on the bridge of the nose and between the eyebrows to soften. What is the right forehead lift method for me? ? 🟢 The incision method varies depending on the individual forehead width and problem areas. To achieve natural and long-lasting effects, you must move the muscles and soft tissues together, rather than simply tightening the skin. 🔹 Endoscopic forehead lift : We make only a small incision inside the scalp and use an endoscope to precisely dissect and fix the tissue. 🔹 Incisional forehead lift : It is a method of making an incision along the hairline or scalp to directly pull and fix the tissue. 🔹 Hairline correction combined : If you are concerned about a wide forehead, the hairline position is adjusted simultaneously with the forehead lift. What changes can I expect after a forehead lift? ? 🟢 You can achieve not only distinct eyes but also an overall soft and bright impression. ✔️ Droopy eyebrows are lifted, making the heavy eye look refreshing. ✔️ The habit of tensing your forehead to open your eyes is corrected, and forehead wrinkles are alleviated. 📌 ✔️ Reduced tension on the glabella and bridge of the nose improves horizontal wrinkles. ✔️ It has the effect of making the overall impression clearer and brighter. ⚠️ However, please keep in mind that the degree of improvement may vary depending on skin elasticity and individual structure! Are there any precautions or side effects for a forehead lift? ? 🟢 As with all surgeries, changes during the recovery process and skilled diagnosis are essential. ! 📍 recovery process : Swelling and bruising may persist for about 1 to 2 weeks after surgery. 📍 sensory change : The sensation in the forehead or scalp may be temporarily dulled, but in most cases, it recovers over time. 📍 Medical staff The importance of : Caution is required, as asymmetry or excessive elevation may occur if the medical team lacks surgical experience. Thinking that "simply having eye surgery will solve everything" can be dangerous. This is because if the cause lies in the forehead, eyelid surgery alone may not yield satisfactory results. Who do you recommend a forehead lift to? ? 🟢 If you are having these concerns, a forehead lift can be an effective alternative! ✅ Suitable cases • Those whose eyelids and eyebrows have sagged simultaneously • Those whose wrinkles deepen due to the habit of opening their eyes using their forehead muscles • Those who repeatedly develop horizontal wrinkles on the bridge of the nose or between the eyebrows • Those who are concerned about their eyes looking dull and their impression looking heavy ⚠️ Cases requiring caution • Cases where only the eyelid skin itself is stretched (upper blepharoplasty may be more suitable) • Those with severe chronic diseases or hemorrhagic disorders • Those with unrealistic expectations regarding the surgical outcome FAQ Q1. Does the horizontal wrinkle on the bridge of the nose definitely improve as well? A1. Yes, in many cases, it improves! The principle is that wrinkles are naturally alleviated as the habit of excessively tensing the muscles around the nose when opening the eyes disappears. However, deep wrinkles may require additional care. Q2. I'm worried that I'll have a lot of scars after the surgery. A2. Most incisions are made inside the scalp or along the hairline, so they are not easily visible from the outside. Although there are variations depending on individual constitution and care, the surgery is performed in a way that minimizes the burden of scarring. Q3. Do the effects last a lifetime? A3. Forehead lifting improves structural causes, so the effects last for a relatively long time. However, since the aging process continues even after surgery, some changes may appear after a very long time. Conclusion ✨ Forehead lift It is a surgery that goes beyond simple cosmetic purposes to harmoniously improve functional discomfort of the eyes and the overall impression. Do not view drooping eyelids and wrinkles on the bridge of the nose as separate issues, Approach based on the entire upper facial structure Doing so can be a fundamental solution. ✨ Accurate diagnosis comes first. : It is important to distinguish whether the cause is the eyelids or the eyebrows. ✨ Selecting skilled medical staff : Consult with an expert who has a good understanding of facial anatomy. ✨ natural impression : It is better to plan within a range that suits you rather than being overly ambitious.

In what cases is under-eye fat repositioning helpful? 💫 A method that helps structural improvement when bulging, sunken, and dark circles occur simultaneously As we age, the thin membrane that holds the fat under our eyes weakens, allowing the fat to push forward. At this time Double structure with a bulging top and a sunken bottom As a result, dark circles and a tired look become more prominent. 🔸 Example symptoms The area under my eyes always looks puffy The tear troughs deepen and shadows form. Dark circles become darker Overall, a tired and dark impression Because these changes often cannot be resolved with makeup or sleep, Diagnosis of structural problems It's good to receive it. 2. What is the principle behind the under-eye fat redistribution? 💫 The process of organizing protruding fat and redistributing it to the necessary areas to achieve balance. The area under the eyes is a delicate area where the skin, muscles, and fat layer all move together. Over time, the fat layer weakens and the fat pushes forward. At this time, some of the fat can be transferred to the deficient area (tear trough) to restore natural volume. 🔸 Core Principles Unbalanced fat is sorted out The sunken area is filled with fat Forming an overall smooth under-eye line It's not just about removing fat. Tidy up + move + restore balance This is an important point. 3. How is the Encore Laser method different? 💫 Incision burden ↓ Recovery burden ↓ Natural approach 🔹 Conjunctival incision method Without opening the outer layer of the skin Approach to the inner conjunctiva do. ✔ No worries about visible scars ↓ ✔ No taping required 🔹 CO₂-based laser Encore laser is CO₂ based Precisely separate unnecessary fat I can do it. Do not manipulate one area repeatedly It may help reduce bleeding and swelling. 🔹 Thermal energy As the laser's micro-thermal energy is transmitted to the deep layers, You can expect positive changes in skin elasticity improvement and fine wrinkle reduction. 🔹 Quick return to daily life There is no need to remove stitches and the burden of bruising and swelling is relatively small. Return to daily life is relatively quick no see. FAQ Q1. Can I return to my daily life immediately after the procedure? A1. Most light daily activities can be resumed gradually. Initial rest will aid recovery. Q2. How long does the swelling or tightness last? A2. It may appear during the natural recovery process and will gradually improve depending on the individual's condition. Q3. Can my eyes look different? A3. Some people feel that their under-eye area becomes flatter and more defined, but the goal is always to achieve a natural improvement. conclusion Under-eye fat repositioning Not just for cosmetic purposes , a procedure that can help correct the imbalance of the structure under the eyes and brighten the overall impression. But most importantly, First, accurately diagnose “why this change occurred” are you. 🔍 In this case, you need to check under-eye bags Deep dark circles deep tear troughs The Encore laser method may be an option for those who want to reduce the burden of incisions and have a quicker recovery. Because every under-eye structure is different, be sure to consult a specialist thoroughly. Personalized plan It is important to establish.

우은경 원장26.01.09Views 834Likes 4 [Health Column] There are so many different types of implant bone grafting... What criteria should you use to choose?[7]
hello, Director Lee Hyeon-seop of Seoul Centum Dental Clinic no see. If you hear the explanation “let’s do bone grafting together” during your implant consultation, Many people 'Is treatment truly necessary? What are the criteria for selection?' is the question most people are curious about. Bone grafting is not simply an “additional treatment”; 👉 Bone quantity and condition 👉 Implant location 👉 Functional and aesthetic requirements This is a treatment process that is decided by considering these factors together. To understand the types and characteristics of bone grafting at a glance ✔️ When you need it ✔️ In which case which method is chosen? ✔️ Judgment points you should know I'll try to organize it. Why is 'bone grafting' necessary for implants? 🦷 Implants need strong bone to be stably placed. implants is an artificial tooth root (fixture) Fixed to the jawbone It is a treatment that is done. so ✔ Sufficient amount of bone ✔ Adequate bone density is very important. but, If you have been missing teeth for a long time If the inflammation was severe If the gum bone is originally thin In many cases, the bone has already been absorbed, so a bone graft may be necessary. That is, the implant Reinforcement process for stronger and longer lasting use It's good to understand it like this! What types of implant bone grafting are there? 🦷There are four main types, and the choice depends on the situation. ① Autologous bone graft — “Is this how you use my bones?” ✔ This is a method of harvesting and using bones from my body. ✨ merit Highest survival rate Bone regeneration is also fast ⚠️ disadvantage Additional procedures are needed to harvest bone. The scope of treatment may be expanded It is mainly used in cases like this 👉 If you have a severe bone deficiency 👉 Situations where stability is especially important ② Allogeneic bone graft — “Is it safe to use other people’s bones?” ✔ This is a method of using donated bones after sterilizing them. ✨ merit Less burdensome than autologous bone Relatively rapid bone formation ⚠️ disadvantage Absorption rate can be relatively fast It is mainly used in cases like this 👉 When it is burdensome to use only autologous bone 👉 With other transplant materials Mix and use together It often happens ③ Xenograft — “Is it okay to use animal bones?” ✔ We use ingredients that are safely refined from bones derived from animals such as cows and pigs. ✨ Advantages The structure is stable Good shape retention, good for maintaining volume ⚠️ Cons Bone formation may be somewhat slow It is mainly used in cases like this 👉 Maxillary sinus augmentation 👉 When maintaining bone shape is important ④ Synthetic bone graft — “Are there any materials that are completely artificial?” ✔ It is an artificially produced bone graft. ✨ Advantages Low risk of infection Consistent quality Easy to use ⚠️ Cons May have limitations when used alone It is mainly used in cases like this 👉 Mixed use with other grafting materials 👉 When a relatively small range of reinforcement is required So, which bone graft is best? 🦷The correct answer is 'the combination that suits the situation' all. This is a question I get asked a lot, but there is no single 'right' answer. Because the selection is determined by considering all of the factors below. ✔ How much bone is lacking? ✔ Location of implant placement ✔ Whether to plant at the same time ✔ Overall health So in some cases Use of multiple grafts together Sometimes it does. in other words, " bone grafting = Rather than “optional”, “The safest treatment process tailored to your current condition.” It would be most accurate to understand it like this. FAQ Q1. Is bone grafting absolutely necessary? A1. Not everyone needs it, but Insufficient bone condition directly affects implant stability. It is important to first accurately check the condition through consultation. Q2. Which bone graft is the ‘best’? A2. Rather than saying that a particular graft material is always the best, **the choice that best suits the individual's bone condition and treatment plan is the 'best'**. Q3. I am concerned that bone grafting may be overtreatment. A3. If it is not necessary, do not proceed, rather It is often essential for long-term stability and maintenance. . conclusion Implant bone grafting, remember it like this! ✔️ Not “over-treatment”, but only when necessary ✔️ Type varies depending on condition ✔️ It is not a treatment that focuses on just one thing. ✔️ Above all else Accurate diagnosis is key It may feel burdensome, but Considering long-term stability and usage period A process that is meaningful enough This could be it. After consulting with a medical professional, choose the best method for your condition.

이현섭 원장26.01.02Views 471Likes 5 [Health Column] Is Bone Grafting Really Necessary for Implants? Key Points to Consider Before Surgery[7]
hello, Smile Dental Clinic of Director Oh Su-hwan no see. At the dentist Implant consultation The most nerve-wracking moment when receiving it is “I need a bone graft.” Isn't it when you hear that? Costs are rising, and concerns are growing about whether treatment is truly necessary. In particular, you may have had the experience of being confused because the language was slightly different at each hospital. But rather than worrying Accurate understanding comes first. Today, we'll explain what implant 'bone grafting' is, whether it's really necessary for everyone, and even give you some tips for making a wise decision. 1. What exactly does implant bone grafting mean? ✨Bone grafting is not a process of ‘filling in bone’, but rather a process of creating space for new bone to grow. Many people think of bones as hard and unchanging tissues like stone, but in reality, Bone is a living tissue that is continuously created and reshaped and has microscopically porous structures. no see. thus Implant bone grafting is not simply a concept of filling, The process of creating space for bone cells to grow into It's much easier to understand if you think of it this way. When building a house, if you first set up the 'formwork', concrete will be poured into it and harden, right? Bone grafting is similar! The graft material acts as a mold. As my bone cells grow and enter it, it hardens into solid bone over time. In other words, bone grafting is not a process of 'attaching' bones, but a process of creating a 'frame (space)' for new bone growth. 2. What materials are used for bone grafting? Many people worry, “It’s not even my bone, so will it be okay?” bone graft material It is broadly divided into the following: 🔸 autologous bone Bone taken from the patient during surgery 🔸 heterognathic bone Materials safely processed from animal bones such as cows, horses, and pigs 🔸 Homologous bone Materials collected from another person's tissue and then sterilized and verified No single ingredient is always the best! They are used in combination according to the patient's gum bone condition and defect range. 3. So… is it impossible to get an implant ‘without bone grafting’? ✨ The correct answer is NO. Bone grafting is not necessary in all cases. The most important factor in deciding whether to have a bone graft is right, “How long has it been since you lost your tooth?” 📌 In this case, it is likely to be 'necessary' ⬆️ If you have lost a tooth for a long time and the gum bone has been absorbed a lot When the remaining bone thickness is very thin 📌 In this case, it may be 'avoidable' If the tooth was extracted relatively recently and there is sufficient existing bone remaining Also, these days, as implant technology advances, In some cases, stable implantation is possible without major surgery by using a 'short implant'. as a result “Bone grafting is not something that must always be done,” but rather a treatment that is decided based on the patient’s condition! 4. Short implants, are they okay? class I thought that a long implant would be advantageous, but Nowadays, surface technology and fixation power have advanced. Even short implants can be expected to provide sufficient stability. FAQ Q1. Are the purposes of bone grafting different for front teeth, molars, and teeth? A1. Yes, they are different. Molars must withstand strong chewing forces, so functional stability is the primary goal. Front teeth, on the other hand, are important for aesthetic reasons, as they need to prevent gum recession and shape changes. Therefore, if there is enough bone left on the molar side, it is possible to make a strategic choice of not necessarily going for bone grafting. Q2. If I don't do bone grafting and place a short implant, won't it be weak? A2. Surface treatment technology has improved, so you can expect sufficient fixing power. Q3. Is there anything patients can do in advance to avoid implant bone grafting? A3. If you manage inflammation well before tooth extraction, the implant environment can be greatly improved. Conclusion - “Knowing your bone condition and making a choice” is the most important. Implants are not simply a treatment to fill empty spaces. The process of remaking parts of my body no see. ✔️ “Everyone else is doing it” ✔️ “Because the hospital told me to do it” It's not something you can just decide. ✨ What is the condition of my bones? ✨ Is the purpose of bone grafting functional or aesthetic? ✨ Is there no alternative? It is wisest to compare and decide slowly based on this standard. If necessary, seek consultation from several hospitals. A treatment plan tailored to your oral condition I hope you find it.

People who need lower eyelid fat repositioning Lower eyelid fat repositioning is not a necessary procedure for everyone.

This technique is effective and offers the advantage of quick recovery. 2. Recovery period for lower eyelid fat repositioning This surgery involves removing the fat from the inner corner of the eye and inserting it into the tear trough area. Recovery is relatively quick, and patients can return to daily activities within 1 to 2 weeks. In particular, once the external tape is removed, there is no need for additional suture removal, significantly reducing the patient's burden. 3. Under-eye fat repositioning radiofrequency procedure Instead of traditional surgery, a procedure using high-frequency technology has emerged. This method burns fat with a needle without incisions, resulting in less swelling and bruising, and a very quick recovery. It also causes less pain, with the procedure lasting only 10 to 15 minutes and performed under local anesthesia. 4. Side effects of lower eyelid fat repositioning Immediately after surgery, the area under the eyelid may appear sunken, but over time it will naturally flatten. Rarely, side effects such as retrobulbar hematoma, diplopia, or temporary vision loss may occur, and immediate contact with the hospital is necessary if abnormal symptoms appear. 5. Duration of Effect and Possibility of Re-treatment The effects of the procedure generally last for 1 to 2 years, and with proper maintenance, semi-permanent results can be expected.
