[Health Column] Lower Blepharoplasty, the #1 Plastic Surgery for Parents' Day! A Comprehensive Guide from Effects to Side Effects and Recovery Period[2]
hello, Director Baek In-soo of Garnet Plastic Surgery no see. With May being Family Month, are you contemplating a meaningful gift to express your gratitude to your parents? Recently, among middle-aged and older adults, 'lower blepharoplasty,' which improves sagging and bulging fat under the eyes to make the impression brighter and younger, is receiving great attention as a representative cosmetic procedure for filial piety. To ensure high satisfaction, we will provide an easy-to-understand guide to the key benefits, side effects, and recovery process that you must check before surgery. Before restoring your parents' bright smiles, please review this article thoroughly first! Lower eyelid surgery goes beyond simple cosmetic surgery. What are the effects? 🟢 Improves under-eye fat and sagging skin to transform a tired-looking impression into a clear and bright one. . Lower eyelid surgery is not a one-dimensional procedure that simply removes wrinkles around the eyes. This is a procedure that comprehensively smooths out the dark shadows under the eyes and signs of aging that appear in combination with age. 🔸 Representative improvement effects : Improvement of under-eye fat protrusion Relieves sagging skin and fine lines Reduction of shadows that look like dark circles Improve a tired and aged appearance Forming a clearer and brighter impression If your parents' under-eyes look particularly puffy and tired when taking photos during holidays or family gatherings, lower eyelid surgery can be a good alternative. Middle-aged and older adults can enjoy the effect of significantly changing their overall image with just small changes under their eyes. Lower eyelid fat repositioning or lower blepharoplasty, which is better suited for my eyes? 🟢 The purpose of the surgery varies depending on whether it focuses on fat relocation or includes skin and muscle improvement. . Many people often confuse the two surgeries. Under-eye fat repositioning is primarily redistributing fat Regional migration center On the other hand, Lower eyelid surgery silver Comprehensive improvement of not only fat but also sagging skin and muscle condition It is an integrated surgery. 💡 If the condition involves severe skin sagging due to aging beyond simple fat protrusion, choosing lower eyelid surgery rather than lower eyelid fat repositioning is clinically much more suitable. How long do swelling and bruising last after lower eyelid surgery? Temporary symptoms may appear immediately after surgery, and usually subside after about 1 to 2 weeks to the point where they do not interfere with daily life. . After any surgical procedure, the speed of recovery may vary depending on the individual's constitution or skin condition. The general standard recovery course follows the steps below. Key Recovery Timeline : 🔸 Week 1 This is the period immediately after surgery when swelling and bruising are most severe. 🔸 Week 2 As significant swelling subsides, light commuting to work or daily activities become fully possible. 🔸 1 month As residual swelling gradually subsides, the surrounding tissue regains its natural feel. 🔸 3~6 months The internal tissue is firmly fixed and eventually settles completely. 💡 If your parents work or have an important meeting coming up, it is recommended to coordinate the schedule after securing at least 1 to 2 weeks of buffer time. What are the side effects and precautions that must be checked before surgery? Since all surgeries carry the possibility of side effects, you must be clearly aware of potential symptoms in advance. . Since lower eyelid surgery requires precise techniques, it is safer to check for potential symptoms in advance. Representative side effects to watch out for : ⚠️ Asymmetry and eyelid pulling ⚠️ Overcorrection or undercorrection ⚠️ Occurs micro-scars and dry eyes ⚠️ Rare eversion (the eyelid turns outward) 💡To prevent such side effects or complications such as ectropion or retraction, you must strictly verify whether the medical team is a specialist with sufficient know-how and extensive clinical experience regarding the surgery. What conditions should be considered more important than price or cost? 🟢 It is whether a 'personalized diagnosis' is provided, which closely analyzes skin sagging and muscle conditions that differ for each patient. . Lower eyelid surgery is not a trivial procedure that can be hastily decided upon based solely on low costs or promotional pricing benefits. This is because everyone has distinctly different innate physical conditions. Essential Checkpoints for Precise Diagnosis : 📌 Current degree of under-eye skin sagging 📌 The exact location and amount of protruding inner fat 📌 Thickness and weakening of the muscles under the eyes 📌 Overall skin elasticity and existing eye shape structure Since indiscriminately removing an excessive amount of tissue can lead to unnatural results, the key is the diagnostic ability to establish the most natural direction of improvement while preserving functional aspects. Specifically, who is lower eyelid surgery most recommended for? 🟢 We recommend this to those who are concerned about looking dull and older than their actual age due to signs of aging under their eyes. . Self-diagnosis checklist : ✔️ If you are often told you look tired because your under-eyes are always bulging ✔️ Cases where sagging soft tissue under the eyes makes you look much older than your actual age ✔️ Cases where the overall impression feels dull and dark due to shadows around the eyes ✔️ Cases where non-surgical lifting procedures were previously performed but the improvement was significantly insufficient ✔️ For those over middle age who want a very natural, non-artificial youthful face What is the detailed surgical recovery process and course by stage? After passing the initial stage of applying protective taping, the facial expression will gradually settle into a natural state by 6 months post-surgery. 🔹 [Stage 1] Immediately after surgery ~ Day 2 after surgery Carefully apply sutures and protective tape to the micro-incision site just below the eyelashes. Swelling that occurs immediately after surgery usually peaks on the 1st or 2nd day and tends to be severe. Light daily movements are immediately possible, and if you are concerned about the swollen appearance, you can sufficiently cover it by wearing a hat or glasses. 🔹 [Stage 2] Day 3 ~ Day 4 Post-Surgery From this point on, the swelling, which had peaked, begins to gradually and noticeably decrease. As you apply the prescribed eye ointment regularly, the area around the tape may appear slightly shiny or oily, but this is a perfectly normal part of the healing process, so you can rest assured. 🔹 [Stage 3] Day 6 ~ Day 7 Post-Surgery (Time for Suture Removal) Visit the hospital to safely remove the attached protective tape and fine stitches. Once the stitches are removed, the significant swelling and bruising around the eyes usually subside quickly. Light makeup becomes possible, drastically reducing the physical and psychological burden of returning to daily life, such as going out or going to work. 🔹 [Stage 4] 2 ~ 3 months after surgery (Long-term recovery) The reddish tint of the micro-scar incised along the eyelash line gradually fades. The skin texture around the eyes recovers smoothly and naturally, transforming into a stable state where scars are barely noticeable. 🔹 [Stage 5] 6 months post-surgery (Final settlement) Even when speaking or smiling broadly, an extremely natural expression is maintained without any awkwardness. A youthful, relaxed, and vibrant impression of middle age is achieved to the point where those around you won't even notice. 📌 Great tips to shorten your recovery time! Professional services conducted at the hospital Swelling relief injection me LED Swelling Management Systematically combining the same customized recovery program can be of great help in accelerating the speed of recovery. FAQ Q1. When does my face look natural after lower eyelid surgery? A1. The most prominent swelling and bruising after surgery usually subside significantly within about 1 to 2 weeks as you resume your daily activities. Afterwards, minor residual swelling gradually subsides over several months, and the area usually settles into a noticeably natural look between one and three months after surgery. Q2. Since it is a surgery involving an incision, I am worried that a severe scar will remain on the surface. The incision for lower blepharoplasty is precisely made along a line closely located just below the eyelashes, which is not easily visible due to the eye's structure. Therefore, as time passes and the wound heals, it becomes difficult to distinguish easily with the naked eye. Although there are individual differences, generally, the scar fades rapidly starting 2 to 3 months after surgery. Q3. My parents are afraid that my facial expression might become stiff or look artificial and awkward after the surgery. To avoid an artificial appearance, the surgery must be performed with precision, thoroughly considering the complex muscle distribution and the condition of the supporting tissues around the eyes. If the surgery is performed correctly according to the anatomical structure, you can maintain a comfortable and soft impression without any awkwardness even when smiling broadly after 6 months, so it is important to make a decision after consulting thoroughly with a medical team with skilled expertise. 📌 Key Summary Lower eyelid surgery, known as the ultimate cosmetic surgery to show filial piety to middle-aged parents, A safe solution that restores your naturally bright and defined face by harmoniously improving sagging skin and bulging fat, the main culprits of under-eye aging. no see. To maintain highly satisfactory results for a long time, do not be swayed solely by low price benefits. Please keep in mind that a precise, customized diagnosis evaluating the patient's skin elasticity, eye structure, and muscle condition from various angles must be performed first. ✨ Key Summary Points ✔️ Major swelling and bruising usually subside within 1 to 2 weeks, and light makeup is possible after the stitches are removed in the first week. ✔️ To prevent side effects such as eyelid eversion and to maintain a natural smile, you must undergo a one-on-one consultation with a verified specialist. If you wish to give your parents the gift of youth and confidence that brings them happiness every time they look in the mirror, I highly recommend visiting a medical institution equipped with a thorough, systematic aftercare program and accompanying them step-by-step, starting from the consultation.

백인수 원장26.05.20Views 53Likes 1 [Health Column] Partial Front Teeth Correction: Side Effects and Conditions You Must Consider Before Finishing Quickly[1]
hello, Smile D Dental Clinic of Director Oh Su-hwan no see. Where do your eyes go first when you meet someone, talk, or smile brightly? As a dentist meeting many people, I realize that the 'front teeth,' which are immediately visible when speaking or smiling, have the greatest impact on one's impression. If your front teeth are crooked or stick out, your mouth is likely to look protruding. This often becomes a major concern because it makes it easy to unintentionally give the impression that I am angry or sulky. Recently, as before-and-after photos of quickly correcting only the front teeth have gained popularity on social media, there has been a significant increase in the number of people seeking methods to complete treatment quickly, following the trend, instead of undergoing full orthodontic treatment. "Can't I also get just my protruding front teeth fixed quickly, instead of the full braces?" It is natural to be drawn to the low cost and short duration as you think. However, you should never take partial orthodontic treatment for the front teeth lightly. This is because an incorrect approach could worsen your appearance or lead to temporomandibular joint problems, ultimately resulting in the unfortunate setback of having to spend double the cost and time to undergo full correction again. Today, for those considering partial front tooth correction, I will clearly explain the medical criteria regarding when you can proceed with confidence and when you should absolutely avoid it! 1. What are the advantages of partial anterior correction compared to full correction? ? ✨ It drastically reduces the financial burden by cutting the time and cost to less than half compared to full correction. Full orthodontic treatment, which involves moving all the teeth, generally takes at least one year, or more than two years if tooth extraction is involved. On the other hand, because partial anterior correction focuses on moving only a few problematic teeth, 3 to 4 months at the shortest, and usually within 6 to 10 months at the longest. The treatment is completed at. Also, brackets are not attached to all teeth, but usually from canine to canine, either upper or lower Appliances only on around the 6 front teeth You will attach it. Since the number of devices attached is small, the cost is lower compared to full correction. Less than half It has the attractive advantage of being reduced to a very low economic burden. 📌 It is also full of conveniences you can experience in your daily life! The sensation of foreign objects or pain in the mouth is much less compared to full orthodontic treatment. There is no device on the molars used for chewing, so it is much more comfortable when eating. 💡 You can also choose from a variety of appliance types to suit your situation and preferences, including invisible lingual braces attached to the inside of the teeth as well as the outside, or clear aligners. 2. What are the potential side effects of getting only partial correction just because it is a trend? ✨ If the process is pushed too hard, side effects such as teeth protruding forward or tooth sensitivity may occur. . Although it appears fast and affordable on the surface, unfortunately, not all patients can achieve satisfactory results with partial anterior tooth correction. In actual clinical practice, patients undergoing partial orthodontics Less than 10% of all orthodontic patients The cases in which it can be applied are very limited to the extent that it amounts to nothing more than that. To straighten teeth, 'space' is absolutely necessary for the teeth to move safely. However, if you try to forcefully straighten the teeth using only front teeth appliances while leaving the molars as they are, there will be insufficient space. Side effect of teeth gradually moving forward (protruding) this It can happen. To prevent this, 'interdental reduction,' which involves finely grinding down the spaces between the teeth, is sometimes performed. If interproximal reduction is excessively concentrated only in the partial orthodontic area, the tooth surface becomes thin, making it difficult to eat. tooth sensitivity You must be careful, as this may appear and cause you trouble. 3. What are the criteria for success and failure of partial orthodontics based on actual treatment cases? ✨ Ignoring the limitations of the oral structure leads to lower satisfaction, but success is achieved by using the correct device following a precise diagnosis. . ❌ Disappointing failure cases In the case of one actual patient, the front teeth were severely overlapping due to a dental arch that was narrowed into a triangular (V-shape). It was recommended that the shape of the dental arch be properly widened through full correction, but At the patient's strong request, partial orthodontic treatment was performed only on the lingual side of the front teeth. I have done it. As a result, the front teeth themselves were rounded, but due to a lack of space, the teeth extended forward, disrupting the harmony with the molars and causing the canines to protrude outwards. In the end, the patient was not very satisfied and Reconsider the entire correction process. There is an unfortunate case where this happened. ⭕ Successful Treatment Cases On the other hand, for another patient who visited due to protruding front teeth, we wisely secured space for tooth movement. It slightly widens the space around the front teeth without touching any other teeth inside the mouth. Perform the 'arch expansion device' first. Partial correction was performed after that. Thanks to this, sufficient space is secured, allowing the teeth to naturally move inward without protruding. very successful results I was able to obtain. As such, a thorough preliminary diagnosis to determine whether your oral structure is truly suitable for partial orthodontics is essential above all else. 4. In what cases is partial orthodontic treatment for the front teeth recommended? ✨ It is recommended only when the amount of tooth movement or space deficiency is minimal (approximately 1–2 mm) and the molar occlusion is perfect. . From a medical perspective, there are no structural skeletal problems and only A 'slight' problem situation involving a minute lack of space of approximately 1–2 mm or requiring relocation. Partial correction is most effective in this area. 🔹 Representative types for which partial correction is recommended Slightly crooked front teeth : Cases where the degree of tooth misalignment is not severe (approximately 1–2 mm) and can be sufficiently straightened with light interproximal reduction. Slightly spaced front teeth : Cases where there is a gap of about 1mm between the incisors, or a minute gap of approximately 0.5 to 1mm between the canines and premolars that only requires closing the space. In cases where only one tooth is protruding : Cases where the overall occlusion and molar alignment are perfect, but only one front tooth is slightly protruding forward and can be gently pushed back into place. ⚠️ Conversely, in such cases, partial correction is absolutely impossible! If you have symptoms such as a protruding mouth, an underbite, an underbite where the upper and lower front teeth meet in reverse, facial asymmetry, severe crowding, a deep bite where the teeth meet too deeply, or an open bite where the teeth do not meet at all, skeletal improvement and overall occlusal adjustment are essential. In this case, the problem cannot be solved by partial correction alone, so You must proceed with full proofreading. You must do this to be safe. Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ) Q1. Can I really finish partial orthodontic treatment for my front teeth in just 6 months? A1. Yes, it is definitely possible if it is a mild case with minimal tooth movement! As short as 3 to 4 months, usually Around 6 months Surface treatment is completed neatly. However, depending on the individual's dental condition or the need for space, it may take up to 10 months. Q2. My front teeth are getting increasingly crooked as I get older. Is partial orthodontics possible for this as well? A2. There are really many people whose front teeth become misaligned due to acquired factors as their gums weaken with age. After visiting a dental clinic for a thorough diagnosis of your gums and alveolar bone, if there are no issues with molar occlusion and the misalignment of your front teeth is minor, they can be corrected through partial orthodontics. Q3. Are lingual partial braces, which are attached to the inside, completely invisible from the outside? A3. Yes, since the device is precisely attached only to the inner surface of the teeth, unless you open your mouth very wide in daily life The orthodontic device is not visible at all from the outside. Thanks to this, satisfaction is extremely high among office workers and those who frequently interact face-to-face. conclusion ✨ Suggestions for Wise Orthodontic Treatment Partial correction of front teeth It is an excellent treatment method that can dramatically reduce time and costs while significantly brightening one's appearance, provided the medical conditions are right. However, if you approach this with the sole intention of "finishing it quickly," you may experience side effects such as teeth protruding forward or a damaged bite. Even if it appears 'slightly' misaligned to the patient, a precise diagnosis reveals that in many cases, full correction is necessary due to skeletal or spatial limitations. Therefore, if you are considering partial orthodontics, we strongly recommend that you visit at least two or three dental clinics and receive a thorough consultation from an orthodontist, rather than making a hasty decision based on the advice of just one place. Finding an accurate diagnosis and medical compromise tailored to your dental condition is the sure first step to creating a beautiful smile you will never regret.

오수환 원장26.05.19Views 28Likes 1 [Health Column] A Comprehensive Summary of the Effects and Side Effects of 'Density Alpha Tip,' the Game Changer of Radiofrequency Lifting[1]
Hello, this is Director Choi Woo-hyeok. I got 800 shots of Thermage. Interest in radiofrequency lifting is so high that the same phrases are being used naturally. 🔥 Among them, the hottest rising equipment these days is the one chosen by actress Lee Young-ae. Density It is. I’m going to introduce the newly released weapon, the 'Density Alpha Tip'! Just like when I first encountered 5G after using LTE 3 or 4 years ago , I got the impression that it was innovative, as if it had skipped a whole generation! Today, I will explain those vivid experiences and top-secret information in a very easy-to-understand way. ✨ Monopolar? Bipolar? How are high-frequency devices classified? 📢 High-frequency devices that deliver energy from the surface without piercing the skin are broadly divided into two types. 📌 'Monopolar' that penetrates deep into the skin When the electrode touches the skin, high-frequency energy A method that goes deep down beneath the skin no see. The globally famous American Thermage is the original device, and as for domestic devices... Oligio, Tentherma, Volneumer, Serf, and the ones we are introducing today Density etc. This is included here. 📌 'Bipolar' concentrated on the skin surface It is a method in which high frequency waves travel back and forth between two electrodes on the tip surface. Rather than the deep place A lot of energy is concentrated on the surface of the skin. It has the characteristic of being able to do so. What is the effect of shooting monopolar and bipolar rays simultaneously? ? 📢 By stimulating both the deep layers and the surface of the skin simultaneously, the synergistic effect of collagen production becomes much greater. . South Korea is also the leading country for microneedle radiofrequency (Potenza, Scarlet, etc.). As a result of repeated research by the research team, Collagen density increases significantly when monopolar and bipolar energy are applied simultaneously. I discovered the fact that Following the Potenza Diamond Tip, which first applied this amazing combination, the device released as a full-fledged radiofrequency lifting machine has inherited the technology intact. Density High Tip no see. Since it cares for both the surface and the inner layers of the skin at once, the synergy in elasticity is bound to be exceptional. What exactly is different about the new 'Density Alpha Tip' compared to existing tips? ? 📢 To summarize in one word, it has been upgraded to "double the inspection area and double the energy consumption." Just as there are some shortcomings in the first-generation models of all electronic products, the existing Denserty Hi-Tip also had a slight risk of side effects, such as skin peeling or blistering, because energy was concentrated in specific areas due to the simultaneous action of two electrodes. This Alpha Tip has perfectly overcome that drawback. 🛠️ 🔸 Maximizing energy efficiency The Density Alpha Tip has doubled in area and doubles the energy. in other words, Getting hit by 300 Alpha Tip shots is the same amount of energy as getting hit by 600 existing High Tip shots. It essentially gets into the skin. Of course, the effect on improving elasticity will be much better, right? 🔸 The risk of side effects has actually decreased. If the energy is doubled, aren't the side effects also doubled? You might be worried about that. However, if you look at the actual temperature change graph, Energy is transferred very evenly and consistently over a large area. It works. Because heat is evenly distributed across the skin, the risk of side effects such as blisters or burns has been significantly reduced compared to conventional tips. Who would you strongly recommend the Density Alpha Tip to? 📢 It is an excellent alternative for those with sensitive skin and a lot of redness who were hesitant about lifting procedures. Some of the patients visiting the clinic Skin with a weak skin barrier, easily reddens, and is sensitive You have. These people wanted to receive skin firming care, but they could not easily get lifting procedures due to concerns about side effects. Denserty Alpha Tip has a low risk of irritation and side effects, and Effects of improving complexion, flushing, and redness You can expect to simultaneously. 📌 For those with sensitive skin who are worried about side effects after a lifting procedure 📌 For those who want to improve skin elasticity while simultaneously caring for redness and dull complexion 📌 For those who want to consistently and safely manage anti-aging every 3 to 6 months FAQ Q1. Does landing just 300 Alpha Tip shots really produce the same effect as the standard 600 shots? ? A1. Yes, that is correct! It is not simply about completing the number of shots; the total amount of energy (Joules) delivered to the skin is what matters. Since the Alpha Tip is designed with double the surface area and energy, you can experience the same energy as the existing 600 shots with just 300 shots. It saves time and reduces the time spent enduring pain by half. Q 2. I have sensitive skin; can I resume my daily activities immediately after the procedure? A2. Since the system has been improved to ensure energy is delivered very evenly across the entire surface, in general, aside from mild redness after the procedure, the likelihood of side effects such as blisters or peeling is low, allowing you to return to your daily life immediately. However, as results may vary depending on the individual's barrier condition, sufficient consultation is required before the procedure. Q3. How often should I receive high-frequency lifting? A3. People in their 20s and 30s consistently receive RF high-frequency treatments to slow down the aging process. Generally, receiving these treatments periodically—every 3 to 6 months depending on your skin condition—is very helpful in maintaining youthful and elastic skin for a long time. conclusion: I am cautiously confident that the introduction of the Density Alpha Tip in the high-frequency lifting market is not merely a slight improvement in performance, but a game-changer innovation that transcends a technological generation. 📌 Key Points : Density Alpha Tip Maximizing treatment efficiency with double the surface area and energy, and minimizing the risk of side effects through uniform heat delivery! 📌 Management points : Even sensitive and reddened skin can care for elasticity and complexion simultaneously without burden. 📌 A cautious word : No matter how good the equipment and tips are that have been released, it is safest to determine the number of shots and energy intensity after consulting with a specialist who can accurately diagnose your current skin barrier thickness and sensitivity. We will be back next time with more informative and interesting skin stories! Thank you.

If your eyelids droop and look heavy, or if the area under your eyes becomes puffy, you are bound to look much more tired than your natural appearance. While these changes are a natural phenomenon caused by aging that goes beyond mere appearance issues, You can regain a vibrant impression with just a small correction. Today, I will summarize the key points of eye surgery for middle-aged women in an easy-to-understand way! Why do eye changes keep happening in middle age? 💡 The main cause is a decrease in the elasticity of the tissues around the eyes!

The same method is not the right answer for everyone. What is most suitable for my current facial condition It is important to understand this first.

Unlike Ulthera and Thermage, which use thermal energy Shock waves in the form of sound waves are transmitted from the skin surface to the deep fascia. Its distinguishing feature is that it works. That is why it is also called by the nickname 'Pasha Lifting'.

In addition, it is distinguished from existing procedures that target only specific layers in that energy is evenly delivered to multiple layers of the skin. For example, those who hesitated to undergo conventional lifting procedures due to concerns about heat or irritation may become interested in this treatment because “the principle itself is different.” ✔️My advice is, rather than looking only at the name of the procedure What kind of energy is used in the procedure? It is helpful to understand first before making a choice. What changes can you expect from Levinas Lifting? You can expect a more relaxed facial appearance along with changes in your appearance. There are two main changes that can be expected from a Levinas lift. First is External changes no see.

The perceived effect or results after the procedure may vary depending on the individual's skin condition, degree of sagging, and state of tissue adhesion. Also, any procedure The practitioner's experience and proficiency , and understanding individual skin conditions is important. Therefore, rather than making an immediate decision without sufficient consultation, it is necessary to go through a process of assessing your current condition first and then establishing a plan.

The process of first determining suitability This is important. What should I know before the Levinas Lifting procedure?

Also with other lifting procedures Possibility of parallelism You can also check that. You can expect complementary effects when combined with heat-based lifting treatments such as Ulthera and Thermage, or with Botox and fillers. but The order and interval of parallel procedures must be determined by the specialist's judgment. The number of treatments and the intervals also vary depending on the individual's condition. Usually A method of performing the procedure multiple times at regular intervals rather than a single session. It is often managed in this way, and specific plans are adjusted after diagnosis. For example, rather than an approach of “I’ll just try it once and be done with it,” How a management plan tailored to my condition is established It is more realistic to confirm this during a consultation first.✨ FAQ (Frequently Asked Questions) Q1.

hello. Dr. Hyunwoo Cho, Director of 3D Plastic Surgery no see. Because it makes your face look long Have you ever considered double jaw surgery? In fact, when I consult with people, many of them ask, “Is double jaw surgery the answer for a long face?” but When it comes to long face plastic surgery, it is most important to first determine the cause of the long face. Because the surgical method needed can be completely different depending on which part of the face appears longer. today In what cases is long face/long chin surgery necessary, and when is bimaxillary surgery necessary? Let me explain with a real-life example. ✨ How do you judge a long face? ? 📌 Face length is determined by the 'ratio of thirds' . The human face can be broadly divided into three parts. ✔️ Upper face: Forehead ~ eyebrows ✔️ Midface: Eyebrows ~ tip of nose ✔️ Lower face: Tip of nose ~ tip of chin Usually these three sections A natural and harmonious face with balanced proportions It appears to be. But if one part of this gets too long, An impression that makes the entire face look longer This can happen. for example If the distance from the eyebrows to the tip of the nose is long → A face with a long midface If the distance from the tip of the nose to the tip of the chin is long → A face with a long lower face like Depending on where you are looking, the solution will vary. 📌 So, in long face plastic surgery, An accurate diagnosis of where the length appears to be long is most important. If I have a long face, do I absolutely need double jaw surgery? ? 📌 If the midface is long, double jaw surgery may be necessary. . From eyebrow to tip of nose If the midface is long In the figure below, marked in red maxilla Reduce the length of Double jaw surgery There are times when this is necessary. Especially when you laugh If you see a lot of teeth When the gums are excessively exposed The position and length of the upper jaw can have an effect. But there is an important point. Through double jaw surgery Bone length can be reduced, but There are limits to changing the position of the nose or the soft tissue itself. in other words ✔ Bone length may decrease ✔ The apparent mid-face length may not change significantly. so Not all long faces are candidates for bimaxillary surgery. ⚠️ Accurate judgment requires professional diagnosis. What kind of surgery is done to make the chin look longer? ? 📌 If the lower face is long, it can be improved with contouring surgery. . From the tip of the nose to the tip of the chin A face with a long lower face If so It can be improved with relatively simple contouring surgery. A typical method is Long curve resection, chin surgery no see. If the jawbone is greatly developed Reduce chin length Balance the lower jaw It can help alleviate the feeling of your face looking longer. As needed Perform square jaw surgery together underneath It can help create more natural facial proportions. How would actual long chin patient cases differ? ? 📌 This is a case where the facial proportions were improved by adjusting the balance between the chin length and the lower jaw. . From the tip of the nose to the tip of the chin Haan-myeon Long face with a long beak If so It can be improved with relatively simple contouring surgery. One patient was admitted to the hospital Considering double jaw surgery You were doing it. But the CT scan results The front chin is long The lower jaw was widely developed. In this case ✔ Long curve resection ✔ Lower jaw bone reduction (LBO) Through Direction to reduce the overall length of the lower jaw The surgery was performed. If you check the CT after surgery, The length of the front chin is reduced As the lower jaw becomes more balanced, I could see that the impression that the face was long had been greatly alleviated. 📌 It's not just about reducing the length It is important to consider both facial proportions and balance. What is the most important thing in long face surgery? ? 📌 What's more important than face length is 'proportion' . Many people Make your chin shorter, smaller I think it will be pretty if you make it. But the face eye, nose, chin, Each element It's important to strike a balance. for example Make the chin shorter unconditionally If you cut the bone like in a typical square jaw surgery, Rather, it may break the facial proportions. In this case ⚠️ If your face looks awkward ⚠️ In some cases, it may appear longer than before surgery. so In long face surgery, design that takes proportions into account is key. When we look at patients who come to check their progress after surgery, Than the face changed I feel like my expression has brightened There are many times when I receive it. Changes in appearance are important, but ✔ Confidence ✔ Change in facial expression There are also cases where you feel positive changes in the same area. Seeing this kind of sight makes me feel rewarded as a medical professional. 😊 FAQ ❓ Q1. Can a secondary angle develop after square jaw surgery? ? A1. If you perform square jaw surgery without chin surgery, an angle may develop at the starting point of the resection. If the secondary angle is not severe, it can be corrected with simple shaving. In severe cases, additional surgery may be required along with chin surgery. Q2. Can a long mid-face be corrected with contouring surgery? ? A2. In cases where the midface is long, bimaxillary surgery is often more effective. However, if there is no dental malocclusion and bimaxillary surgery is too risky, procedures such as philtrum reduction surgery may be considered. A more accurate assessment is best made through consultation following a CT scan. Q3. Can contouring surgery shave as much bone as desired? ? A3. Contouring surgery is not a procedure that allows you to freely shape the area as desired. The extent of resection is limited by the thickness of the cheekbones and the location of the mandibular nerve. Conclusion 🧾 In long face and long chin plastic surgery The most important thing is an accurate diagnosis. Because my face looks long ✔ It is not always necessary to have double jaw surgery ✔ It is not necessary to necessarily reduce the chin. 📌 Which part of the face makes it look longer? 📌 How to balance the overall proportions of the face These two things must be considered together. So if you are considering surgery ✨ First, you need to find the method that is right for you through a CT scan and accurate consultation. Also, rather than just listening to one opinion, It is recommended that you seek consultation from several hospitals and make a careful decision. 3D plastic surgery CEO Cho Hyun-woo Graduated from Yonsei University College of Medicine Yonsei University Graduate School, Master of Medicine Severance Hospital plastic surgery specialist Severance Hospital Plastic Surgery Visiting Professor Regular member of the Korean Society of Plastic and Reconstructive Surgeons Korean Society of Aesthetic Plastic Surgery regular member Korean Society of Craniofacial Plastic Surgeons regular member International Society of Plastic and Reconstructive Surgery (ISAPS) member Regular member of the Korean Society for Surgery of the Hand Korean Association of Plastic Surgeons regular member Executive Director of the Minimally Invasive Plastic Surgery Research Association Director of Hyun 3D Plastic Surgery Clinic Experience in facial contouring treatment 21 year
조현우 원장26.03.05Views 226Likes 4 [Health Column] Why Upper Eyelid Surgery Isn't Alone for Middle-Aged Eyelid Surgery? Criteria for Combining Forehead Lift Surgery[8]
hello, Garnet Plastic Surgery Director Baek In-su no see. Many people tend to think that the eye changes in middle age, such as drooping eyelids, making the eyelids look heavy and blurry, are just a problem with the eyelids. 👀 But in reality, it is often a complex change that extends to the eyebrows and forehead. For this reason, if upper eyelid surgery is performed alone, there may be situations where the results are different from what was expected. Today, I'll explain, from a structural perspective, why forehead augmentation is often considered in middle-aged eye surgery.✨ Isn't middle-aged eye aging just a problem with the 'eyelids'? 🟢Sagging eyelids are often accompanied by drooping eyebrows and forehead. Sagging upper eyelids after the age of 40 or 50 is not simply a problem of excess skin. It is accompanied by complex changes including loss of eyelid skin elasticity, relaxation of the orbicularis oculi muscle, drooping of the eyebrows, and relaxation of the forehead soft tissue. That is, it is not just the eyelids that are drooping. A condition where the eyebrows and forehead are lowered together This is often the case. 💡Example: The habit of opening your eyes with your forehead tense, with your eyelids looking heavy. 🎯 It is important to evaluate not only the eyelids but also the eyebrow position and forehead sagging. Why can removing a lot of skin during upper eyelid surgery be problematic? 🟢Excessive restraint can cause changes in impression and tense eyes. The purpose of upper eyelid surgery is to improve vision and correct facial expressions. Skin in middle-aged patients Excessive removal underneath This may result in a decrease in the distance between the eyebrows and eyes, as well as a change in the appearance of the face. Also, as the eyelids become hypertonic, Opening your eyes may further increase forehead compensation. 💡Example situation When only a large amount of skin is removed while the eyebrows have already fallen down → The eyebrow position appears relatively lower, creating an unnatural impression. ⚠️ Caution! Simply “removing a lot” does not always lead to good results. Why is forehead augmentation surgery often considered together? 🟢This is an approach to reposition structural causes (eyebrow and forehead drooping). Forehead augmentation is not simply a surgery to smooth out wrinkles. Surgery to reposition the lowered eyebrows and forehead soft tissues to their anatomical positions no see. Through this ✔️ Natural eyebrow lift ✔️ Normalize the distance between the eyebrows and eyes ✔️ Prevent excessive skin excision You can expect the same effect. In other words, a “cut less and make it more natural” approach becomes possible. Do all middle-aged patients need forehead lift surgery? 🟢The parallel operation will vary depending on whether the eyebrows are lowered or not. Not all middle-aged patients need forehead lift surgery. However, in the following cases, parallelism is actively considered: 🔸 If eyebrow sagging is evident 🔸 If you have a lot of forehead compensation wrinkles 🔸 If you feel a lot of tension in your forehead when opening your eyes 🔸 If the distance between the eyebrows and eyes is already narrow In these situations, upper eyelid surgery alone may actually worsen the outcome. 💡Simple self-check example If your eyes feel more comfortable when you slightly lift your eyebrows with your hand → It is likely that the cause is sagging eyebrows. What is the most important principle in middle-aged eye surgery? 🟢The key is to ‘reposition the sagging structure’ rather than the amount of excision. The key to middle-aged eye surgery is It's not about how much you remove, It's all about how you rearrange the sagging structure. Because the eyelids are part of the upper part of the face It should be judged in the balance of the entire upper face, including the forehead and eyebrows. You can expect natural and stable results. 👉 It is important to evaluate the entire upper face, not just the eyelids. FAQ Q1. Will my appearance look unnatural after surgery? A1. Excessive excision may cause the eyes to appear sunken or asymmetry, and excessive pulling may give a surprised impression. Q2. How long is the recovery period and return to normal daily life? A2. Bruising and swelling will subside in about 1 to 2 weeks, and it will take about 7 to 10 days to return to normal daily life. It may take 1 to 3 months for the condition to return to normal. Q3. Which surgery is right for me, upper eyelid surgery or forehead lift? A3. In cases where the eyelid skin is sagging, upper eyelid surgery is considered, and in cases where the eyebrows have fallen and are covering the eyes, forehead lifting surgery is considered. Conclusion ✨ The success of middle-aged eye surgery Rather than “how much restraint did you have” It depends on how accurately the cause of the sagging was corrected. ✨ ✔️ We evaluate not only the eyelids but also the eyebrow position and forehead sagging. ✔️ A structurally balanced approach is more important than excessive moderation. ✔️ Customized consultation is required based on individual anatomical condition. If your eyes feel heavy and you have to open them with your forehead Not just a simple upper eyelid surgery It's a good idea to consult with a specialist for a comprehensive upper facial evaluation. 👀 Garnet Plastic Surgery Director Baek In-su Graduated from Korea University College of Medicine Graduated from Korea University Graduate School (Plastic Surgery major) Korea University Medical Center Resident Plastic Surgery Specialist at National Medical Center Former Director of Jewelry Plastic Surgery Regular member of the Korean Society of Plastic and Reconstructive Surgeons Regular member of the Korean Society of Aesthetic Plastic Surgery Regular member of the Korean Craniofacial Society Regular member of the Facial Contour Research Group of the Korean Society of Plastic and Reconstructive Surgeons Regular member of the Korean Society of Plastic and Reconstructive Surgeons' Ophthalmic Plastic Surgery Research Group Regular member of the Rhinoplasty Research Group of the Korean Society of Plastic and Reconstructive Surgeons Regular member of the Korean Society of Plastic and Reconstructive Surgeons' Anti-Aging Plastic Surgery Research Group See more expert columns from Dr. Baek In-su of Garnet Plastic Surgery Clinic.

hello. Director Jeong Jae-wook of Gangnam Saero Dental Clinic no see. One of the most common complaints I hear when considering implant treatment is, "It takes a long time." 🦷 In fact, general implants often take several months due to the osseointegration process. So, there are quite a few people who delay or hesitate to seek treatment. However, if conditions such as the condition of the gum bone are met, there is a way to efficiently shorten the treatment process. In this column, we will discuss ways to reduce the treatment period. One-day Highness System Let's take a look at it. 1. Why does implant treatment take a long time? ? 👋 It takes enough time due to the osseointegration process. . Implants are not simply about putting teeth in. The artificial tooth root that acts as the root must be attached to the gum bone of our body as if it were one body. 'Osteointegration' Time is of the essence. This step usually takes several months, but under certain conditions, the process can be significantly shortened. 2. What kind of treatment is the One-Day Highness System? ? 👋 From extraction to temporary prosthesis connection, ‘just 3 days’ is enough. Unlike the conventional method, the key is to perform implantation and temporary prosthesis connection simultaneously immediately after extraction. 🔹 Safety : There is no separation of parts after setting, so the gingival (gum) formation is solid and the risk of screw loosening or breakage is minimized. 🔹 Convenience : Because the model is taken using a digital oral scan, the process is very simple and there is little pain. 🔹 nicety : No adhesive (cement) used We prevent related complications at the source and reduce errors through digital precision manufacturing. 3. Why is Highness Digital Prosthesis better? 👋 Because recovery is quick and there is less worry about complications. . 📌 Actual changes felt by patients Time saving : Treatment period compared to existing At least 3 months It can be reduced and the number of visits is also reduced. Pain reduction : There is minimal bleeding and swelling, allowing for a very quick return to normal activities. Gum health : Since no adhesive is used, there is no gum irritation and the risk of complications such as peri-implantitis is low. Sophistication : The entire process is digitized, so it fits perfectly, with almost no need for any modifications in the mouth. 4. How can it be produced in '1 Day'? ? 👋 Because we have a system of collaboration between the in-house dental laboratory and specialists. . In-house dental laboratory : Our skilled technicians are on-site and produce patient-specific prosthetics on the same day without any errors. cutting-edge digital equipment : High-performance scanner precisely identifies oral structure and provides immediate diagnosis. Collaboration with 6 departments : Specialists in various fields, including prosthodontics and orthodontics, are on site, allowing for comprehensive treatment in one place. ❓ FAQ Q1. Is one-day implant really completed in one day? ? A1. This treatment method involves surgery and temporary prosthesis placement in a single day. The final prosthesis completion time varies depending on the individual's condition. The key is to shorten the treatment period compared to conventional implants. Q2. If I get treatment too quickly, won't the success rate decrease? ? A2. A shorter period does not necessarily mean a lower success rate; an accurate diagnosis and fulfillment of the conditions are prerequisites. This applies only when the gum bone condition is stable. Q3. Is it okay to use the temporary prosthesis right away? A3. Daily conversation and eating are possible, but you will be instructed to avoid excessive chewing movements in the early stages. 📝 conclusion The One-Day Highness System is not simply a “quick implant,” but rather a way to safely shorten the treatment period when conditions are met. In particular, the decision on whether to apply it is made after comprehensively considering the amount and density of alveolar bone, presence of gum inflammation, and general condition. ✔️ Stability is more important than speed ✔️ Not all treatments are equally applicable to all patients ✔️ Accurate diagnosis is the standard for treatment direction If you are experiencing discomfort in your daily life, it is important to first check your current oral condition rather than rushing to treatment. We recommend that you carefully determine the treatment plan that's right for you through professional consultation. ✨ Gangnam Saero Dental Clinic Director Jeong Jae-wook Ministry of Health and Welfare, Dental Prosthodontics Specialist Graduated from Yonsei University College of Dentistry Graduated with a master's degree from Yonsei University School of Dentistry Intern at Yonsei University Sinchon Severance Hospital , Prosthodontics Residency Completion Korean Academy of Prosthodontics, recognized and full member Korean Society of Oral and Maxillofacial Implantology (KAOMI) Premium Member Regular member of the Korean Society of Temporomandibular Joint and Occlusion Full member of the Korean Academy of Aesthetic Dentistry jeon ) Adjunct Professor, Yonsei University College of Dentistry jeon ) Former Director of Yonsei Good Day Dental Clinic Yangjae Branch hyeon ) Korean Academy of Prosthodontics, Board of Review , Expert Committee/Academic Affairs Committee hyeon ) Korean Society of Oral and Maxillofacial Implantology (KAOMI) Director of Academic Planning See more expert columns on laminates > [Health Column] Is Dental Laminates Really "No Prep"?

hello, Director Jeong Ga-i of Lumiel Plastic Surgery no see. “ Have you ever worried about your jawline and sagging skin every time you look in the mirror? Growing older is a natural process, but actually going under the knife takes a lot of courage. Recently, it has been called 'the epitome of non-surgical lifting'. Ulthera This is precisely why it is attracting attention. Because it creates changes deep within the skin while allowing you to return to your daily life right away without surgery. Today, we'll honestly answer all your questions about Ulthera Lifting. Wellthera Lifting, what exactly does it do? 📚Non-surgical plastic surgery that directly pulls the target layer (SMAS) of the facelift without surgery. Well, it's called The only FDA-approved ultrasonic lifting device no see. Unlike general lasers, the key is to deliver ultrasonic energy to the SMAS layer (fascia layer) at a depth of 4.5 mm. 🔹 Key points SMAS layer target: In plastic surgery, the very layer that is actually being lifted is targeted. Check out the live video: It is very precise because the procedure is performed while directly viewing the skin layer with ultrasound imaging. Collagen regeneration: Simultaneously induces tissue contraction and collagen regeneration through thermal stimulation. 📌 A word from the director It goes beyond a simple dermatological procedure and is closer to ‘non-surgical plastic surgery.’ Because energy must be delivered while viewing real-time images, the skill of the practitioner determines the results. What changes can I expect after the Ulthera procedure? ? 📚 From the tightening immediately after the procedure to the elasticity that comes alive over time The appeal of Ulthera is that you can enjoy both ‘immediate effects’ and ‘slow-on effects’ at the same time. 🔹 Summary of effects by period Immediate effects (~1 week): The thermal energy immediately tightens the tissues and you will feel a slight pull in your jawline. Delayed effects (2-12 weeks): As collagen regenerates, real lifting begins and volume is naturally filled in. ✨ Duration: The effect is average 3~6 months It peaks at about 1~2 years The degree is maintained. The biggest advantage is the natural change that makes it feel like “my skin has returned to its original state.” Pain and the Procedure: Honestly, How Hurtful Is It? ? 📚 Tolerable but not comfortable; general anesthesia can be used if necessary. Many people are concerned about the pain, but I think it would be honest to say that "as the effect is certain, there is also a clear stimulation." 🔹 Intensity of pain by area ⭐⭐⭐⭐ (Very High): Jawline, forehead, cheekbones, etc. Area close to the bone (a tingling electrical stimulation) ⭐⭐⭐ (Normal): Ball, neck area (heavy pressure) 📌 Treatment process (takes about 30-60 minutes): Cleansing → Apply ultrasound gel → Check real-time image → Energy irradiation to each area (300-800 shots). For those who are afraid of pain, our hospital sleep anesthesia It is also used in parallel. Are there any side effects or precautions due to improper treatment? ? 📚Excessive energy is a no-no! Precise design is essential to prevent sagging eyes and nerve damage. Although Ulthera is a safe procedure, rare side effects may occur if performed by an unskilled practitioner. ⚠️ Side effects to watch out for: Ball-scraping phenomenon: Excessive treatment on a thin face can actually make the face look hollow. Nerve damage: Choosing the wrong area may result in facial asymmetry or numbness. ✔️ Normal reaction: Redness, swelling, and slight bruising immediately after the procedure will naturally disappear within a week. Who should benefit most from it, and who should avoid it? ? 📚 For early and mid-stage aging, Ulthera is the answer. For severe sagging, consider surgical methods. The appropriate treatment varies depending on the individual's skin thickness and fat distribution. ✅ I recommend it! Those who have started to show signs of early aging in their mid-30s to early 50s Those with a blurred jawline and deep nasolabial folds For those who are concerned about surgery but want a definite lifting effect ❌ I don't recommend it! Severe sagging in those over 60 (surgical lifting recommended) Extremely thin face with too little volume Pregnant women, breastfeeding women, and those with metal implants in the surgical site Hospital selection checklist for satisfactory results ? 📚 Using genuine products is essential, and checking whether the product was 'performed directly' by a plastic surgeon is essential. Please be sure to check the items below before the procedure. Verify authenticity: Are you using genuine FDA-approved equipment and cartridges? Specialist treatment: Is the procedure performed directly by a plastic surgeon who is familiar with facial anatomy? Detailed Analysis: Do you carefully check your skin condition with ultrasound images before the procedure? Reasonable price: If it's too cheap, you should suspect the use of regenerative tips, etc. FAQ (Frequently Asked Questions) Q1. Can I return to my daily life immediately after the procedure? ? A1. Yes, you can! Swelling and redness can be covered with makeup, and most patients can return to work the next day. However, if you have an important appointment, we recommend allowing about a week for the procedure. Q2. Which is better, Ulthera or Thermage? ? A2. The two treatments have different targets. Well, what a surprise For lifting that pulls the deep area (SMAS), Thermage It is beneficial for increasing elasticity in shallow areas (dermis layer). Recently, 'Ulthermaji', which provides both effects at the same time, has also become popular. Q3. There are also reviews saying it doesn't work. Why is that? A3. There are three main cases. ① You underwent a procedure that was not appropriate for your level of sagging, ② You used non-genuine equipment, or ③ You judged the results immediately after the procedure (1-2 weeks). Remember, the results will gradually appear over 2-3 months! conclusion The most honest way to turn back time Well, it may not be possible to completely restore your skin to that of a 20-year-old, You can turn back the clock to look 5 years younger than you are now. It's a very effective method. The important thing is to determine whether Ulthera is really the best for the condition of my face. Rather than simply following trends, consult with medical professionals with extensive knowledge of anatomy. An honest solution that suits me I hope you find it. If you find yourself looking in the mirror feeling unfamiliar, now is the time to consult a professional. Lumiel will be there to help you maintain your natural beauty. ✨ Lumiel Plastic Surgery Director Jeong Ga-i Korea Korean Society of Aesthetic Plastic Surgery and Laser Medicine member Member of the Korean Society of Laser Dermatology and Hair Loss Member of the Korean Society of Aesthetic Medicine Korea Filler Society member Member of the Korean Society of Obesity and Aesthetic Therapy Member of the Korean Society of Cosmetic Medicine I'm from Gangnam Renovo Clinic I'm in Cheongdam Abijou Clinic I've been at the Gangnam main branch for a while now

hello, Garnet Plastic Surgery Director Baek In-su no see. If you are concerned about prolonged swelling and bruising after plastic surgery, Hyperbaric oxygen therapy (HBOT) You may have heard the saying at least once. Immediately after surgery, your face may feel heavy and swollen. As the bruise subsides, it's easy to feel anxious about the speed of recovery. At this time Treatment that involves inhaling 100% oxygen in an environment with higher than atmospheric pressure , This is where HBOT can help you recover. Today is hyperbaric oxygen therapy Effects, Targets, and Precautions I'll explain it to you in the easiest way possible! How does hyperbaric oxygen therapy work? 🟢This is a method that helps overall recovery by dissolving much more oxygen in the blood plasma. In a high pressure environment (2–3 atm) 100% oxygen When you breathe in, you get more oxygen than usual. It is much more soluble in the plasma itself. It will work. in result, ✔️ Oxygen can be supplied to tissues compressed by edema. ✔️ Restoration of microvascular function ✔️ Helps form new blood vessels In other words, it is a structure that more efficiently receives the 'oxygen energy' needed for tissues with unstable blood flow to come back to life. What effects can I expect after plastic surgery? 🟢The focus is on everything from reducing swelling, bruising, and pain to helping with fat grafting. 🔸 1. Reduce swelling and bruising Oxygen regulates inflammatory responses and lymphatic circulation. → Helps swelling and bruising go down more quickly 🔸 2. Wound healing & scar stabilization Fibroblast activation + collagen synthesis required oxygen supply Accelerates incision healing and reduces risk of infection 🔸 3. Helps with flap and fat graft survival Clinically used to increase the vitality of tissues with unstable blood flow 🔸 4. Reduced pain & shortened recovery period As tissue hypoxia improves, pain substances decrease. Speed of return to normal life↑ Who should receive HBOT? 🟢It may be helpful when you need 'quick recovery from swelling and bruising'. ✔️ A constitution that causes swelling and bruising to last a particularly long time ✔️ If you need to recover quickly and return to normal life ✔️ When an improvement in survival rate after fat grafting is needed ✔️ When you are concerned about decreased blood flow and inflammation after rhinoplasty ✔️ Foreign residents with limited period of stay ✔️ If your skin appears dark due to reduced blood flow after filler ✔️ For the purpose of restoring overall condition/immunity 5 Things You Should Ask Your Doctor Before Getting HBOT 🟢You can reduce trial and error by just following the checklist before starting. Is HBOT safe for my current condition? (Relationship with bleeding, stitches, swelling, etc.) What are the possible side effects during/after treatment? (ear pain, dizziness, headache, vision changes, etc.) What should I do when my ear hurts? (Equalizing method, stopping criteria) What behaviors and medications should I avoid before and after treatment? (makeup, contact lenses, smoking, certain medications, etc.) How many sessions do I need to take to see results? (whether overtreatment can be a problem) It doesn't work the same for everyone. 🟢It is important to decide based on your current recovery status and symptoms. HBOT does not work the same way for everyone. Rather than starting unconditionally Check your own recovery status first Must do. Not all discomfort is a 'problem', but if it interferes with your daily life, we recommend seeking counseling. The key is to consult with a specialist and decide whether the treatment is right for you! FAQ Q1. Should everyone who has had plastic surgery receive HBOT? A1. No, that's not true. It's difficult to expect the same results for everyone. You should consult with your medical team based on factors such as your recovery status, the degree of swelling, and the type of surgery. Q2. My ear hurts during treatment. Should I stop? A2. You must be thoroughly informed of the "equalization method" and "stopping criteria" in advance. If ear pain persists, it's safe to notify a medical professional immediately. Q3. How many times do I need to take it to see results? A3. The correct answer to the number of treatments varies from person to person. Excessive treatment can be problematic, so consult a medical professional. Conclusion ✨ Hyperbaric oxygen therapy (HBOT) is beneficial for post-plastic surgery recovery. Auxiliary care that may be helpful as, It has the advantages of reducing swelling, bruising, pain, and fat graft survival. but, ✔️ Not everyone has the same effect ✔️ Select after checking recovery status ✔️ Advance notification is required for ear pain, pressure issues, etc. If you are concerned about recovery after plastic surgery, After accurately checking the current swelling, bruising, and pain status, consult with medical staff to make a decision. I recommend you try it. If you just take the checklist I provided today with you, you will be able to make a much safer choice!

정재욱 원장25.12.08Views 563Likes 6 [Health Column] Shurink Lifting Procedure: Essential Information You Must Know About Its Effects and Side Effects[12]
Director Choi Woo-hyuk In recent years, one of the most frequently mentioned devices for skin lifting procedures is 'Shurink'. It is gaining popularity because it causes less pain and has a shorter recovery period, and it can improve skin elasticity through a relatively simple method. Especially among those who want to refine their facial contours or reduce wrinkles, Shurink has become an effective option. Today, we will carefully go over the principles, effects, and precautions of Shurink. What is Shurink? Shurink is a non-surgical lifting procedure that uses high-intensity focused ultrasound (HIFU) to deliver heat energy deep into the skin, inducing collagen regeneration. Originally, its main purpose was to improve skin elasticity, but in Korea, it is widely used for facial lifting, especially to improve sagging cheeks and double chin. It employs a zigzag pattern to burn inside the skin using ultrasound, with heat delivered to depths of 4.5mm and 3mm inside the skin, allowing for simultaneous effects of increased elasticity and reduced volume. 2. Effectiveness and frequency of the Shurink procedure ShrinQ typically begins to show effects within 3 to 5 days after the procedure, and after 3 to 4 weeks, collagen regeneration intensifies, leading to more noticeable lifting and skin elasticity improvements. The effects last for about 6 months, and it is recommended to undergo maintenance treatments regularly every 2 to 6 months. In particular, those with a certain amount of fat on the face tend to be quite satisfied, making it suitable for individuals seeking improvement of nasolabial folds, dimples, or double chin. 3. Shrink pain and procedure time The procedure takes about 10 minutes, which is very short, and while pain varies from person to person, it is generally considered milder than Ultherapy. During the procedure, you may feel slight stinging or warmth, but if the pain becomes severe, the energy intensity can be adjusted accordingly. In the latest version, Shurink Universe, the procedure speed has increased by 2.5 times, and it is also reported that the pain has been further reduced. 4. Precautions for Side Effects of Shrink Shurink is known to be a relatively safe procedure, but when using regeneration tips, energy imbalance can occur, leading to side effects such as burns and embossing. If performed by an unskilled practitioner, side effects like pitting, sagging, and nerve sensation reduction may also occur, so it is essential to have the procedure done by experienced medical staff. In particular, those with little facial fat should avoid it, as excessive fat loss can occur. 5. Features of the Shrink Universe The second-generation Shurink Universe allows for more precise and faster procedures than previous treatments, and by introducing a pen-type booster handpiece, it enables precise procedures even on curved areas. With a total of seven types of cartridges, customized treatments for various skin layers are possible, improving treatment accuracy and reducing side effects. Additionally, by using the 'Aurora Ampoule (GT38)', high-performance regenerative ingredients are applied instead of simple gels, allowing for a dewy, glowing skin effect. Additionally, when used in conjunction with high-performance whitening and regeneration ampoules, a synergistic effect of increased moisture and radiance can also be expected. 6. Summary of Shurink Completion Shrinke is a cost-effective lifting procedure with minimal pain and recovery burden, and its effects last appropriately. However, since the effects appear gradually, it is advisable to approach it as part of consistent lifting management rather than expecting immediate changes. The results can vary significantly depending on the practitioner's skill, so thorough consultation and review are necessary when choosing a hospital.

최우혁 원장25.04.17Views 4307Likes 10 [Health Column] What is Juvederm Voluma Procedure? A Complete Overview of Effects and Side Effects[5]
Director Choi Woo-hyuk Hello, this is Director Choi Woo-hyuk. If you are interested in lifting procedures, you have probably heard the term "JuveLuxe Volume" at least once. JuveLuxe Volume is a representative non-surgical procedure that naturally improves skin elasticity and volume, making it an attractive option especially for those seeking to address issues such as decreased skin elasticity and enlarged pores that occur with aging. 1. JuveRuk Volume Principle Juvelex Volume Procedure involves not just injecting collagen into the skin, but also injecting PDLLA components that induce collagen production within the skin. These components are absorbed over time, leaving only natural collagen, which naturally improves skin elasticity and volume. This process strengthens the internal structure of the skin and helps improve skin quality in the long term. 2. JuveRuk Volume Effect Juvelex Volume Procedure does not provide immediate volume effects. Instead, the volume and elasticity of the skin gradually improve over several weeks to months after the procedure. These gradual improvements may vary from person to person and are particularly effective when the skin sags due to sudden weight loss. The gradual effects help the skin recover its health in a natural way. Juvederm Voluma treatment is suitable for those who want to increase their collagen naturally or when there is a decrease in volume in specific areas. It is also effective for cases where the skin has become loose due to sudden weight loss from dieting. This procedure is appropriate for men and women of all ages who wish to restore volume, especially for those who prefer natural results. 3. Side effects of Jubelek Volume Juvelex Volume is generally a safe procedure, but improper technique during the procedure can cause side effects such as nodules. This means the formation of small lumps under the skin, which can be minimized through regular check-ups and proper care after the procedure. To prevent these side effects, it is important to undergo the procedure with an experienced professional, and proper post-procedure care can reduce the risk of side effects. 4. Jubeleuk vs. Jubeleuk Volume Juvelex Volume is specialized for volume restoration with large particles, while regular Juvelex uses small particles for improving skin texture and skin boosting. This procedure improves skin texture and provides a radiant-like effect, resulting in a natural and long-lasting outcome. Understanding these differences and choosing the product that suits your needs is important. 5. Procedure cycle and maintenance period Juvelex Volume is recommended to be used one vial per session, with a total of three treatments spaced one month apart. Collagen production lasts for about 6 months to a year after the procedure, and the effects can be maintained for approximately 1.5 to 2 years. The duration of the effects may vary depending on individual lifestyle habits and skin condition, so additional treatments can be planned accordingly. Procedures that are good to do together with Juvéderm The combination of Juvederm Voluma and RF lifting (Olligeo) provides an excellent synergistic effect, and post-procedure LDM ultrasound management helps promote the diffusion of collagen seeds for more effective results. As part of aftercare, appropriate massage for each area can maximize the treatment effect. After receiving Juvederm Voluma treatment, it is important to follow the expert’s instructions for regular maintenance and to periodically check the condition of the treated area to maintain optimal results. Juvederm Voluma is an attractive choice for those who want their skin to become healthier. It is important to consult with a professional to determine if the procedure is suitable for you, and obtaining sufficient information and consultation before the procedure can ensure safe and satisfying results.

최우혁 원장25.03.25Views 8102Likes 15 [Health Column] Rejuran Treatment Effects and Side Effects, Essential Checklist Before the Procedure[12]
Director Choi Woo-hyuk Hello, this is Director Choi Woo-hyuk. In this article, we will explore in detail the principles, effects, and side effects of Rejuran, as well as considerations to keep in mind before the procedure. 1. What is Rejuran? Rejuran is a skin booster that effectively promotes skin regeneration and improves overall skin condition. This procedure focuses not only on aesthetic enhancement but also on restoring the health of the skin itself. The main ingredient of Rejuran, polynucleotides (PN), are DNA fragments extracted from salmon, which have a structure similar to human DNA, making them highly effective for skin regeneration. 2. Candidates for Rejuran treatment Rejuran is especially recommended for the following individuals. ✔️ For those with severe skin dryness: Rejuran supplies deep moisture into the skin, maintaining long-lasting hydration. ✔️ For those concerned about decreased skin elasticity and fine wrinkles: It helps promote collagen production, enhance skin elasticity, and improve fine wrinkles. ✔️ For those seeking natural skin regeneration effects: It activates the skin's own regenerative ability rather than artificial changes, helping to create healthy skin. ✔️ For those struggling with skin troubles: It has anti-inflammatory effects that help alleviate trouble and soothe the skin. 3. Considerations before Rejuran procedure However, careful consideration is necessary in the following cases. ✔️ For those who have a severe fear of needle procedures or are sensitive to pain: Rejuran treatment requires multiple injections, so there may be a concern about pain. ✔️ For individuals with very sensitive skin, such as atopic dermatitis: since it may cause skin irritation, it should be decided after consulting a specialist. ✔️ For those seeking immediate and dramatic results: Rejuran is a procedure that gradually improves the skin, so quick effects are unlikely. 4. Rejuran procedure method – manual injection vs. machine The Rejuran procedure is mainly divided into manual injection and machine-assisted procedures. - Hand injection: A method where the practitioner administers the injection directly, allowing for precise procedure but taking more time and potentially causing some discomfort. - Mechanical procedure: Using a machine that operates multiple needles simultaneously can shorten the procedure time and reduce pain, but the skill of the practitioner is important. To alleviate pain, it is recommended to apply anesthetic cream thoroughly and allow sufficient time before the procedure. 5. Rejuran treatment schedule and maintenance Rejuran treatment is generally recommended to be performed three times at one-month intervals, followed by maintenance treatments at six-month or three-month intervals. The effects of the treatment vary by individual, but improvements can be expected in skin dryness, increased elasticity, reduction of fine lines, and improved skin texture. Combining Rejuran treatment with collagen regeneration procedures such as Thermage or OnDa can achieve more effective skin improvement results. Especially in specific cases such as scar treatment, using it together with Raxel treatment can be more beneficial for regeneration. 6. Side effects of Rejuran treatment Rejuran treatment is a relatively safe procedure, but side effects such as pain, bruising, swelling, and allergic reactions may occur. Be sure to consult with a specialist before the procedure to confirm if it is suitable for you, and after the procedure, avoid touching or irritating the treated area. When referring to online reviews, it is important to carefully examine mentions of emboss formation, pain, and other related factors, and to choose a trustworthy hospital. Rejuran treatment is an effective method to restore skin health and boost confidence. However, post-procedure care is essential, and it should be noted that the goal is gradual skin improvement rather than immediate results. Through this column, I hope to enhance your understanding of Rejuran procedures and help you make wise choices suited to yourself.
