[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.

[Health Column] 🦷 Wisdom Tooth Pain: Does Enduring It Lead to Illness? A Complete Guide to Extraction Criteria[2]
hello! Lee Hyun-seop, Chief Director of Seoul Centum Dental Clinic no see. There are so many people who suffer from throbbing and swollen gums when their wisdom teeth start to come in, aren't there? "It'll be fine in a few days," "I'll just have to take painkillers and hang in there" Most people endure the pain, saying... However, wisdom tooth pain may simply be a fleeting pain, but It could be an 'inflammation signal' sent by my body. Today, I will clearly explain why wisdom tooth pain occurs and in which cases extraction is absolutely necessary! ✨ 1. Why on earth does wisdom tooth pain occur? The cause is a wisdom tooth that failed to properly settle due to insufficient jaw space! Wisdom teeth are the last molars to erupt, usually in the late teens or early twenties. The biggest problem is The fact that there is insufficient space in our jaw for wisdom teeth to erupt properly It is. 😥 Since it came out late after the other teeth had already taken their place, Situations where it protrudes obliquely, lies on its side, or is completely buried (impacted) within the gums This occurs. During this process, the surrounding gums and teeth are continuously irritated, causing pain. 📌 Wait! Is it perhaps something like this? If the gums around your wisdom tooth are swollen and throbbing every time you chew Pericoronitis It is highly likely. Food particles and bacteria have accumulated in the gaps between the wisdom teeth, causing inflammation, so it is dangerous to leave it untreated! ⚠️ 2. Should I go to the dentist right now for my wisdom tooth? ? 🦷 If the symptoms below recur, never dismiss them as mere discomfort! If you neglect wisdom tooth pain Causing cavities in the front molars or reducing concentration, etc. It can ruin your daily life. Check out the following list! ✔️ 🔸 The gums swell and subside periodically. 🔸 I feel a tingling sensation or pain when chewing food. 🔸 My breath seems to have gotten worse than before. 🔸 Food keeps getting stuck in the wisdom tooth area and won't come out. 🔸 It is difficult to carry on with daily life without taking painkillers. 3. When is wisdom tooth extraction absolutely necessary? 🦷 We don't extract all wisdom teeth, but extraction is recommended in these cases! Just because you come to the dental clinic, we do not tell you to have it extracted unconditionally. but Situations where tooth extraction is necessary for oral health This definitely exists. 👨‍⚕️ 🔸 When tooth extraction should be considered - When a wisdom tooth is lying sideways and pushing against an adjacent tooth - When swelling is severe due to recurrent inflammation - When cavities develop in the wisdom tooth itself or adjacent teeth - When future problems are anticipated due to the complexity of the ambush situation On the other hand, if the wisdom teeth have grown in straight and nicely and are well-maintained, Regular observation alone is sufficient You can do it. The important thing is knowing your own condition accurately, right? 4. Sudden pain, what first aid can be done at home? You can put out the immediate fire, but please remember that it is only a temporary fix! If your pain suddenly worsens at night or on weekends when it is difficult to visit the dentist, the following methods may be helpful. 📌 ✅ Cold compress: Please apply a cold compress to the swollen area. ✅ Pain relievers and anti-inflammatory drugs: Please take over-the-counter medicines available at pharmacies. ✅ Mouthwash/Waterpik: Please remove food particles from crevices using antibacterial mouthwash or a waterpik. ✅ Soft food: Please avoid irritating the painful area. ⚠️ Be careful! Cold compresses or taking medication only temporarily delay the pain. If the cause is not resolved, it can spread into more serious inflammation, so you must get a check-up! FAQ Q1. Does wisdom tooth pain go away if I just endure it? ? A1. It may subside temporarily, but due to its location, it is difficult to manage, so there is a very high probability that bacteria will multiply again and inflammation will recur. Q2. Do I need to have an impacted wisdom tooth extracted even if it doesn't hurt? A2. Even if it does not hurt now, extraction is sometimes recommended as a preventive measure if there is a possibility of damaging the roots of the front teeth or forming cysts. conclusion ✨ Wisdom tooth pain is primarily caused by a lack of space in the jaw and inflammation (pericoronitis). ✨ Recurring swelling, pus, severe bad breath This could be a sign of tooth extraction. ✨ Rather than extraction Check your 'current condition' through a precise dental check-up Doing it is the priority. Wisdom tooth pain won't be resolved by enduring it. Don't endure pain that disrupts your daily routine any longer; consult a specialist! 🦷✨ Seoul Centum Dental Clinic Chief Director Lee Hyun-seop Specialist in Integrated Dentistry Graduated from Korea University Master of Dentistry, Kyung Hee University College of Dentistry Regular member of the Korean Academy of Oral and Maxillofacial Implantology Regular member of the Korean Endodontic Society Regular member of the Korean Academy of Integrated Dentistry Member of the American Academy of Aesthetic Dentistry (AACD) Member of the American Academy of Implant Dentistry (AAID) Full member of the International Congress of Implantologists (ICOI) Experience in placing over 17,000 implants Possesses extensive overseas experience visiting over 10 countries Experience with numerous complex implant cases Read other health columns by Director Lee Hyun-seop > [Health Column] Why Are Impacted Wisdom Teeth a Problem?

[Health Column] Why Thread Lifting Is Not Just Simple Skin Tightening, but ‘Realigning Facial Structure’ ✨[3]
hello, Representative Pengpeng, Center Director Kwon Bong-sik no see. Many of you are probably worried about deepening nasolabial folds or a sagging jawline every time you look in the mirror, aren't you? Recently, the number of people coming in for consultations while considering thread lifting has increased significantly. However, it is unfortunate that many people make a decision knowing only that it involves "pulling the skin with thread." The essence of thread lifting lies not in pulling the surface of the skin, but in '3D structural realignment' that rearranges sagging tissue three-dimensionally. Today, I will go into detail about the scientific principles behind how thread lifting improves signs of aging and what you absolutely must check before the procedure! 🔎 What are the anatomical principles of thread lifting? 💬 It is not just simple traction, but 'biomechanical correction' that returns sagging tissue to its youthful position. The key to thread lifting lies in repositioning and fixing soft tissues and the SMAS (Superficial Muscular Aponeurotic System) that have sagged due to gravity caused by aging, bringing them closer to their anatomical original positions. ✨ artificial ligament role : The tiny protrusions on the thread fix the tissue, and as the thread is absorbed, it promotes collagen synthesis to form a 'fibrous band.' This acts as a sturdy reinforcement for weakened retaining ligaments. artificial ligament It becomes a... 🌿 Efficient facial expressions : When the weight of the tissues concentrated downward is distributed, the overload on the facial muscles is reduced. Thanks to this, muscle movements become more efficient, and much Improve natural facial expressions This becomes possible. 💡 If you only pull the surface of the skin, it may look awkward. We must approach this from the perspective of normalizing the position of the deformed organization and strengthening the supporting structure. How scientifically proven are the effects of thread lifting? 🧪 💬 immediate physical traction effect is certain, Skin improvement mechanism It also has a histological basis. Thread lifting appears immediately after the procedure Physical relocation effect This has already been sufficiently proven through numerous clinical cases. ✅ Playback effect : The underlying mechanisms, such as collagen production occurring around the thread, have clear histological evidence. ⚠️ Points to note : However, the duration of the effect or the degree of skin quality improvement may vary significantly depending on individual constitution and care habits. Therefore, rather than exaggerated expectations Accurate data tailored to me It is important to receive counseling based on this. What are the practical points patients must understand before the procedure? 💬Approach this as a concept of 'maintenance treatment' for conservative management, rather than as 'surgery' for excision. ! Thread lifting is not a surgery that cuts tissue. Improving the structure by moving sagging tissue back to its original position and compressing it conservative procedures It is. 🤝 📌 Naturalness and safety : It has the significant advantage of being less physically burdensome than surgery and producing natural results. 🕰️ Continuous management : However, in reality, it is absorbed over time, and the traction is bound to decrease gradually. Therefore, rather than ending it once, Slow down the aging process and maintain optimal condition It is advisable to understand this as a concept of 'management'. FAQ Q1. Won't the pain be too severe during the procedure? ? A1. Although there are individual differences, pain can usually be sufficiently controlled by using local anesthesia. 🧊 For those with sensitive skin Triple anesthesia system including additional cooling anesthesia We are doing our best to minimize any inconvenience, so please don't worry too much! Q2. Can I go to work or go out immediately after the procedure? ? A2. Yes, it is a non-incisional procedure. Discharge on the same day and return to daily life It is possible. 🏃‍♂️ Although bruising and swelling vary from person to person, they will subside quickly and resolve naturally if you apply a cold compress according to the instructions provided. Q3. I'm scared that my face will become too tight after the procedure and look unnatural. A3. A design that pulls excessively or ignores facial structure may be the problem. 🎨 Individual Custom design considering facial balance and muscle movement If this is done beforehand, you can achieve sufficiently natural results. 🔸 conclusion: To make the best choice for me Facial sagging is not merely a surface skin issue, but a complex change resulting from aging. 🔍 Individual customization : Because everyone has different skin thickness, fat volume, and bone structure, Suitable treatment method It must also be different. ✨ careful decision : Rather than undergoing a procedure unconditionally, getting an accurate diagnosis of your current condition is the priority. 👨‍⚕️ The Importance of Counseling : I recommend that you communicate fully with medical professionals to determine the most appropriate course of action for you.

[Health Column] You Just Got an Implant and Now You Have to Have It Removed? A Comprehensive Guide from Causes to Prevention ✨[2]
hello! Lee Hyun-seop, Chief Director of Seoul Centum Dental Clinic no see. You made a big decision to get the implant, so you must have felt relieved, thinking, "I'll be able to use this for the rest of my life." Unfortunately, even if it is properly implanted, if care is neglected or unexpected situations arise Implant removal There are times when you have to make a difficult decision. Today, we will look at why situations arise where well-placed implants must be removed, and what our bodies send danger signal I'll pinpoint exactly what it is! 1. What are the warning signs that dental implants send? 🦷 No implant falls out "suddenly." There are always warning signs! If a problem arises with an implant, it is highly likely that our body is already sending small signals. ⚠️ If you experience even one of the symptoms below, do not take it lightly. Changes in the gums Swollen gums or frequent bleeding when brushing teeth uncomfortable pain I feel a strange pain every time I chew food. Shake detection I feel like the implant is slightly loose. Foreign object jamming Food particles have started getting stuck much more than usual. Such changes can lead to the removal of implants childhood This could be the case, so do not ignore it and visit a dentist immediately for a check-up. 2. What are the main causes of implant removal? 🦷 The biggest enemies are 'inflammation' and 'lack of support'. Why do you have to remove implants that were difficult to implant? Here are the four main reasons. Peri-implantitis (Most common cause!): This is a phenomenon where inflammation occurs in the gums and bone surrounding the implant, causing the bone to erode. If left untreated, removal will eventually become inevitable. Lack of bone support : If the amount of gum bone supporting the implant is insufficient or its density decreases, the fixation weakens, and removal must be considered. Initial implant failure : This is a case where the bone and implant did not fuse properly in the early stages due to systemic health issues such as smoking or diabetes, or a lack of proper care. Occlusal problems : If chewing force is unevenly distributed, it can cause continuous damage to the bone surrounding the implant, leading to problems. 3. For implant removal, do I have to have all of them removed? 🦷 Depending on the situation, it may be resolved with 'partial measures'! You don't need to be afraid in advance that you might have to remove the entire thing. The method varies depending on the situation. ✅ Some measures possible : Minor issues, such as problems with the upper prosthesis or loose screws, can be resolved with simple measures. ✅ Total removal required : Surgical removal is necessary if the root (fixture) is damaged or if significant bone resorption has occurred due to severe inflammation. 4. How should I manage my diet safely after surgery? 🦷 🦷 Reducing irritation is the shortcut to a quick recovery! After removal or re-implantation, every single thing you eat is important. 🍴 Day 0: Stopping bleeding Focus on this! 🩸 1~3 days: While managing swelling Very soft liquid food Please eat. 4~7 days: Protein-rich foods like tofu and eggs soft regular food Starts. 1~2 weeks: Gradually Normal meal Go back, but avoid hard foods. FAQ Q1. Can I eat ice cream after implant surgery? ? A1. Yes, it is possible! In fact, cold stimulation can help relieve pain and swelling. 🍦 However, you must not eat too much. Q2. When can I start drinking coffee? ☕ A2. It is recommended to start taking it 2 to 3 days after surgery, and it is best to consume it lukewarm rather than too hot. Q3. Are alcohol and cigarettes really forbidden? 🍺🚬 A3. Yes, At least 1 to 2 weeks You must strictly prohibit this! It is the main culprit that slows recovery and drastically increases the risk of inflammation. 🚭 conclusion The lifespan of an implant is determined by 'attention'. Implant removal is not a misfortune that happens suddenly one day, The result of small problems accumulating no see. The difference between dismissing it with a "It feels a bit strange, but it should be okay?" attitude and thinking "Let's check it out" determines the lifespan of your implant. ✨ We hope you protect your precious implants for a long time through proper lifestyle habits, such as regular checkups, thorough brushing, and quitting smoking. If you feel uncomfortable, do not hesitate.

[Health Column] Is It Over Once the Implant Prosthesis Is Placed? Everything You Need to Know About 'Aftercare' That Determines Lifespan[2]
hello! Son Dong-guk, Chief Director of Toktok Plant Dental Clinic It is. 😊 ✏️ At the end of the long journey of implant treatment, once the artificial tooth (prosthesis) is perfectly fitted, There are so many patients who breathe a sigh of relief, saying, "Phew, it's all over now!" but The real success of your implant starts now. Did you know that? So that you can use the implants you spent significant cost and precious time to complete healthily for a lifetime, The lifespan of the prosthesis Core Management Principles I will explain it to you easily and kindly. ✏️ If the prosthesis becomes loose or falls out, does that mean the implant has failed? 👉🏻Don't panic! It can be a natural phenomenon. Implant prostheses are secured by tightening screws or using special adhesive, and the issues that occur when we chew food Tremendous pressure because Over time, the screws may loosen slightly or the adhesive strength may weaken. 👉🏻 Natural phenomenon: This is not so much a surgical defect as something that can occur during chewing. 👉🏻 Simple solution: Simply visiting a dentist to tighten or reattach it is sufficient to resolve the issue. 👉🏻 Neglect is forbidden: If you feel anything unusual, do not hesitate to see a medical professional immediately! ✏️Why is personalized design necessary for dental implants? 👉🏻 This is to prevent bacterial invasion and minimize food particles getting stuck. .

hello, Smile D Dental Clinic of Director Oh Su-hwan no see. You made a big decision to get front tooth laminates about 10 years ago; have you ever looked in the mirror recently and thought, "They don't look the same as before"? If you have been putting off visiting the dentist out of worry, thinking, "Won't they grind down my teeth more if I do it again?" or "What if it gets sensitive?", please pay attention to today's post until the end! ✨ For laminate users in their 10th year Misconceptions and Truths about Re-procedures We will relieve your tension refreshingly. 🦷 1. Are the changes that appear after 10 years really a problem with the laminate itself? ✨ In many cases, natural 'gum changes' are the main cause rather than defects in the prosthetics. Just as our bodies change over time, our gums also undergo gradual changes. Especially as you enter your late 30s and 40s, the gums gradually recede. 'Gum recession' phenomenon It is because this appears. 📌 What symptoms appear? 🔸The boundary between the laminate and the gums becomes visible Grayish or yellowish This is visible ⚠️ 🔸Fine details on the smooth seam foreign body sensation This feeling 🔸I feel like my gum line isn't as even as it used to be 💡 Director Oh's One-Line Advice This is not a failure of the procedure, but something that appears over time natural signal It is! Please do not worry too much; just take this as an opportunity to check your current status. 2. Won't more of the tooth need to be shaved down during the re-procedure? Thanks to recent advancements in dental technology, you can significantly reduce your worries about 'additional removal'. What many people fear the most is 'tooth removal'. Since the volume of deletions was higher 10 years ago than it is now, you must be even more worried. but Technology has really advanced a lot over the years! ✨ 🔹 Fact check to ease your worries ✔️ 0.1mm precision technology: Unlike in the past, we are proceeding while preserving existing structures as much as possible. ✔️ Using Digital Scans: Instead of taking impressions with sticky materials, using a high-resolution oral scanner Prosthetics that fit snugly without gaps We produce. 3. Do I have to remove all the laminates? Depending on your current condition, the direction of treatment is smartly divided into three main categories. ! Tearing everything out blindly isn't the right answer! You can choose the most appropriate method depending on the condition and concerns of your teeth. 🔸 Maintenance : If the bond is strong and you are free of cavities, you can use it for longer with just regular checkups! 👍 🔸 Partial replacement : A problem arose Selectively only one or two teeth Reduce the burden by providing retreatment. 🔸 Complete redesign : We proceed with a 10-year outlook to address bite misalignment or ensure overall smile harmony. ✨ Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ) Q1. I had a lot of it shaved off in the past; is it really possible to have a re-procedure? A1. Yes, it is possible! Through precise diagnosis Analyze the amount of remaining enamel (outer surface of the tooth). Doing it is the priority. 📌Our primary principle is to preserve the remaining tooth structure as much as possible. Q2. Should I get braces instead of laminate re-treatment? A2. The cause of the prosthesis repeatedly breaking Misaligned occlusion If that is the case, correction can be a fundamental solution. However, if you are simply dissatisfied with the color or shape, a re-treatment is much more effective. Q3. If I get the procedure done again this time, can I really use it for a lifetime? A3. Actually, saying it "lasts a lifetime" might be an exaggeration. ⚠️ However, if accompanied by regular checkups and care (such as avoiding hard foods), you can maintain your health for much longer than before! conclusion You don't need to regret the choice you made 10 years ago!

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.

Today, I will summarize the key points of eye surgery for middle-aged women in an easy-to-understand way!

How can I improve heavy upper eyelids? 💡 You can regain definition through upper eyelid surgery and eyebrow lifting. . 🔹 Upper eyelid surgery Improves sagging upper eyelid skin to make the eyes look sharper. ✔️It corrects the habit of using your forehead muscles to open your eyes due to sagging eyelids, effectively reducing eye fatigue! 🔹 eyebrow lift It is a method that pulls the skin along the line below the eyebrow. ✨It is perfect for those who want a natural change without worrying about scars while keeping their existing double eyelids. Are you worried about puffy under-eyes and dark circles? 💡 Create a radiant look with lower eyelid surgery and under-eye fat repositioning. . 🔸 Lower eyelid surgery It simultaneously resolves under-eye fat protrusion and skin sagging. We recommend this if you have severe skin sagging and require fundamental improvement. 🔸 Under-eye fat repositioning It is a method that not only removes fat but also spreads it evenly to sunken areas. The uneven under-eye area is smoothed out, giving a much younger appearance. ❓FAQ: Frequently Asked Questions! Q1. Is upper eyelid surgery different from regular double eyelid surgery? A1. Yes, it is different! The main purpose is not simply to create lines, but to remove sagging skin and improve the 'strength of opening the eyes' itself. Q2. Can't it be improved without surgery? A2. If the symptoms are in the early stages, they can be corrected to some extent with fillers or lifting, but If sagging or fat protrusion is severe Surgical methods are much more effective and offer higher satisfaction. 🎯 Conclusion: The key is "naturalness"! The biggest point of middle-aged eye surgery is Regaining youth naturally without drastically changing your appearance no see. 📌 Custom analysis is essential. The condition of the eyelids, fat, and muscles must be analyzed comprehensively. 📌 careful choice Rather than blindly undergoing a trendy surgery, it is important to design the method that is most suitable for you.

hello! Lee Hyun-seop, Chief Director of Seoul Centum Dental Clinic no see. While eating a meal as usual, suddenly the implant It feels like it just popped out. Whenever a tooth comes in or I chew A 'rattling' unfamiliar feeling Have you ever felt it? Especially since this situation happened to cause the hospital to close. weekends or late nights You would be very flustered if it happened. 😰 "Is this completely broken?", "Should I go to the emergency room right away?" For those who are concerned, ✨ today Actions You Must Never Do When an Implant Screw Loosens and the Correct Ways to Respond to Them for Each Situation We will summarize it for you in an easy-to-understand way! 1. Why do implant screws suddenly become loose? ? 🦷 This is because the 'screw' securing the prosthesis has loosened due to various causes. Implants are not simply a single unit, but are embedded within the gum bone Artificial root (fixture) , column (abutment) , and visible Prosthetics (crowns) It consists of the structure of What binds them tightly is the 'screw' is. 🔩 📌 The screw may come loose for these reasons! Chewing pressure: When excessive chewing force is concentrated on only one side Oral habits: The habit of grinding or clenching one's teeth unconsciously Wear and tear and aging: If the screw itself is worn out due to long-term use Initial fixation force: Rarely, when initial bonding strength was slightly insufficient or bone fusion was unstable 2. If an implant screw comes loose, do I absolutely have to have it re-implanted? ? 🦷 Don't worry! As long as the root (fixture) is intact, simply tightening the screws again will solve the problem. Many people ask, "If it loosens, doesn't that mean the implant is ruined?" but fortunately... Re-implantation is not always necessary. ✅ The situation is broadly divided into two types. In the case where only the screw is loose : The fixture is firmly attached to the bone and Only the prosthesis placed on top is loose It is. At the dental clinic It can be easily solved by simply tightening it again. It works! ✨ Problems with the entire structure : If acting as a root If the fixture itself is shaking Additional treatment or re-implantation may be necessary. Therefore, shaking is felt Early response Doing so is the smartest way to reduce the scope of treatment. 3. What should you absolutely never do when an implant is loose? ? 🦷 Attempting to fix it could actually completely ruin the implant. ⚠️ This is absolutely forbidden! Direct screw tightening: If you use tools or screwdrivers found at home screw threads The ('wavy grooves etched into the screw') may be damaged, rendering it completely unusable. ❌ Use super glue: This is a surprisingly common mistake! If you apply adhesive, the prosthesis will become impossible to remove later. You might have to smash even your perfectly good prosthetics and make new ones. 😱 Continue eating as is: If you continue to chew while it is rattling, the internal structures may wear down, or in the worst case, even the fixture inside the bone may be damaged. 4. I can't go to the dentist because it's the weekend. What should I do right now? ? 🦷 Don't panic, just remember two things: 'protection' and 'storage'. If you are unable to visit the hospital immediately, please make sure to follow the steps below by Monday morning. Stop using the affected area : Minimize chewing, and absolutely Eating only on the opposite side Do it. 🍽️ Consume soft foods : It is recommended to focus on liquid foods that require minimal chewing, such as porridge, soup, and tofu. Keep the missing prosthesis clean. : If the crown has completely fallen out, please keep it safe so you don't lose it and be sure to bring it with you when you visit! 📥 Quick booking : You need to find a dental clinic that is open on weekends, or schedule an appointment as soon as Monday arrives. 5. What problems arise if a loose implant screw is left untreated? ? 🦷 What could have been prevented with a hoe might end up requiring a shovel. That is why regular inspections are essential! If you ignore the slight shaking and keep using it, you will eventually pay a heavy price. 😢 Damaged parts : The screw may wear out or the connecting post (abutment) may break. Bone resorption progress : A loose prosthesis can cause continuous irritation to the gums, leading to the surrounding bone dissolving. Risk of re-surgery : In the end, it was a problem that could be solved simply by tightening. Major surgery to extract and re-implant implants It may lead to. 🔸 ✨ Preventive measures for long-lasting durability! Maintain cleanliness around the teeth with dental floss and interdental brushes 🪥 Check the screw tightening status every time through regular checkups If you grind your teeth, wear a splint. FAQ Q1. I tried putting the fallen prosthesis back in, and it fits perfectly. Can I just use it as is? ? A1. No! Even if it appears to fit on the outside, food particles can enter through tiny gaps and cause inflammation, or it may slip out quickly due to being unable to withstand chewing forces, potentially damaging the inside. ⚠️ It must be fixed at a dental clinic using specialized tools. Q2. Are there people whose implant screws frequently come loose? ? A2. Those who chew very hard or enjoy tough foods, or those who have a habit of grinding their teeth severely while sleeping, may experience screws loosening relatively more frequently. In this case, it is recommended to shorten the interval between regular checkups. conclusion Loose implant screws are an 🚨'emergency signal' sent by our body. It might be disconcerting because it appeared suddenly, but in most cases, it is a phenomenon that develops as small abnormalities accumulate. Don't panic even if it happens on the weekend!

hello. Director Jae-wook Jeong of Gangnam Saero Dental Clinic no see. Wisdom teeth, located at the very back of the mouth, often cause deep worry about whether or not to have them extracted, just as much as the pain when they erupt. Wisdom teeth are not simply a matter of removing a single tooth, An important process of managing 'potential risks' to overall oral health no see. today Types of wisdom teeth, extraction criteria, and the risks of leaving them untreated Let's take a closer look at this. 1. What shape are your wisdom teeth growing in? ? 👋 It is divided into 4 main types depending on the jawbone space and gum condition. . The way wisdom teeth grow varies from person to person, but they can be broadly classified into four types. ✔️ Normal eruption It is positioned to grow straight up vertically, just like the other molars. If there is enough space, the fit is good, and it is kept clean, you do not necessarily have to pull it out. ✔️ Partially Ambush Only the crown of the tooth is slightly visible, and the rest is covered by the gums. It is very easy for food to get stuck, so there is a very high chance of inflammation. ✔️ Complete ambush It is completely buried within the gum bone. Even if it is not visible on the outside, regular checkups are essential because cysts can form or bone resorption can occur internally. ✔️ Horizontal (impacted wisdom tooth) It lies completely sideways and grows toward the roots of the front molars. Press on the front teeth The main culprit that twists teeth It is. 📌 A word from the Director! In order to know exactly what condition my wisdom tooth is in It is most accurate to have an X-ray taken at a dental clinic. 2. Is it okay to just leave a painless wisdom tooth alone? ? 👋 Even if there is no immediate pain, you should consider extraction if there is a hidden 'potential risk'. . Many people ask, "Why extract it when it doesn't hurt?" However, leaving abnormally grown wisdom teeth untreated can lead to the following problems. ⚠️ Domino Cavities : Because of food stuck between the wisdom tooth and the front molar Even healthy molars will decay along with it. ⚠️ Tooth misalignment : Wisdom teeth growing horizontally can push against the front teeth, causing the teeth alignment that was carefully corrected to become misaligned again. ⚠️ Chronic inflammation and bad breath : As food particles decompose, they cause terrible bad breath and gum disease, and in severe cases, can even dissolve surrounding bone. Of course, if your wisdom tooth grows in properly and does not affect the adjacent teeth, you do not need to have it extracted. However, if management is difficult, a 'management plan for the future' is necessary. 3. When is the best time to decide on wisdom tooth extraction? ? 👋 Check the recommended action guide based on the condition. classification Major status Recommended measures tooth extraction is mandatory Recurring pain, swollen gums, cavities in front molars, discovery of a cyst in the jawbone Extract the tooth as soon as possible Follow-up observation Erupted properly and well cared for, deeply embedded in the bone with no effect on surrounding teeth. Regular X-ray checkups ❓ FAQ Q1. How should I choose a hospital for wisdom tooth extraction? ? A1. Check just three things! Since they are often adjacent to the jaw nerve A skilled oral and maxillofacial surgeon Whether there is, Precision equipment such as 3D CT Whether it is equipped with, and Same-day extraction and aftercare It is a good idea to check if it is systematic. Q2. I'm worried my face will swell a lot after the extraction. A2. Although there are individual differences, swelling is usually most severe during the 48 hours after extraction. During this period Ice pack If you do this consistently, it will be of great help in reducing swelling. Q3. The pain is very scary. Is it manageable? ? A3.

Many people worry about wrinkles, but in fact, the bigger factor that determines one's impression is Facial 'volume' and 'contour' It is. 👤 While in the past, slender and thin faces were unconditionally preferred, recently there has been a trend that emphasizes overall balance and natural three-dimensionality. Today, along with these changes in trends How thread lifting is evolving I will explain it in detail. Why is the standard for a 'youthful face' these days a 'voluminous face'? ? 👉🏻 The key is to restore balance by filling in sunken areas rather than simply pulling. . In the past, the focus was solely on lifting sagging skin to make the face smaller. ✨But recently "Harmony of the entire face" It has become more important. As our skin ages, it loses elasticity and sags, but at the same time As fat decreases, certain areas become deeply sunken. 🔹 Major sinking areas: cheeks, temples, and around the nasolabial folds 🔹 influence: It can make you look more tired than you actually are or give the impression of being stubborn.

Having an aversion to the insertion of external foreign substances such as fillers Natural volume improvement I recommend this to those who want it. ✨ It can be a very effective alternative, especially if you want to regain elasticity without an artificial look, or if your impression looks sharp due to a lack of volume in your cheeks. conclusion Recent lifting trends are Naturalness and harmony no see.

[Health Column] Is Dental Resin Treatment Possible for a Broken Molar? A Guide from Costs to Treatment Standards ✨[11]
hello! Lee Hyun-seop, Chief Director of Seoul Centum Dental Clinic no see. When a tooth is slightly chipped or cracked, there is a question that many people ask first. as soon as Couldn't we just do it simply with resin? This is the part I am doing. Many people prefer resin due to its low cost and the ability to complete treatment on the same day, but in reality, its feasibility clearly depends on the condition of the teeth. Today, I will easily explain the criteria for resin treatment for fractured molars! 🦷 ( Fracture (It refers to a condition where part of the tooth is chipped or cracked!) 1. In what cases is dental resin treatment possible? ? 🦷 It is most effective when the extent of tooth damage is small and in the early stages. . Resin offers excellent aesthetics because it involves directly filling the tooth with a material similar in color. I mainly recommend this for the following situations. 📌 Fine cracks: In the case of a very thin crack on the surface of a tooth 📌 Small fracture: In cases where a small part of the tooth is chipped off 📌 Early tooth decay: When the rotten area is not large and can be filled immediately after removal 📌 Deficit Supplement: When part of the front teeth or molars is lost 💡 A word from the Director! If it is in the early stages, the biggest appeal of resin is that it allows for treatment while preserving natural teeth as much as possible! 2. Why are small cracks, which seem insignificant, dangerous? ? 🦷 Teeth lack the ability to heal themselves, so if left untreated, a small problem will eventually become a major one. . Even tiny cracks that are barely visible should be treated with caution if they send the following signals. ✔️ Instantly when chewing food A tingling sensation ✔️ The sensation when eating cold water or hot food A brief chill ✔️ Especially on specific areas The sensation of food getting stuck ⚠️ Be careful! The cracks in the teeth gradually deepen over time. If you cannot resolve it with resin in time Inlay, Crown, Root Canal Treatment Beyond the worst case implants You might have to do up to that. You should consider resin as a treatment to be done 'in advance when possible'. 3. What causes teeth to break? ? 🦷 Not only accidents but also trivial daily habits can make your teeth diseased. . Molars are where chewing force is concentrated, so even small damage can quickly escalate. Watch out for the following minor habits! ❄️ Bite the ice: The habit of crushing hard ice with teeth 🦀 Hard food: Enjoying tough and hard foods such as marinated crab and nuts 🦷 bad habit: Teeth grinding or unconsciously clenching teeth while sleeping 📉 Other factors: Areas weakened by cavities or natural weakening due to aging 4. How do dentists find invisible gold? ? 🦷 Even cracks that are difficult to identify with the naked eye can be detected through precise inspection. all. 🔹 Coloration Test: Confirm the location by letting the pigment seep into the crack. 🔹 Optical Inspection: It uses a special light reaction to locate areas where bacteria have proliferated or cracks have formed. 🔹 CT Scan: We provide the most accurate diagnosis by assessing the depth and extent of the gold in three dimensions. 5. Resin vs. Inlay/Crown, How to Choose ? 🦷 Resin is not necessarily the best option; you must choose the 'appropriate' treatment for your tooth condition. . division Resin treatment Inlay / Crown Applicable to small crack, minor fracture When the extent of damage is large or root canal treatment is required Key Features Fast treatment, low cost High durability and withstands strong chewing forces FAQ Q1. I've heard that resin fillings on molars fall off easily. Is that true? ? A1. Durability has improved compared to the past due to advancements in materials and adhesive technology. However, since molars are subjected to strong chewing forces, if the fracture is too extensive, inlays or crowns may last longer and remain strong than resin. Q2. I have a cracked tooth, but if it doesn't hurt, is it okay to just leave it alone? ? A2. Even if there is no pain, the crack continues to progress. By the time you feel pain, there is a high probability that the nerve has already been fractured, so getting a checkup and reinforcing it with resin when there are no symptoms is the most economical and safest method. conclusion Timing is key to dental health! Once damaged, teeth do not heal on their own. If you keep putting it off thinking, "This much should be fine," you might miss the opportunity to finish it with a simple resin treatment. ✨ Just remember this! Reduce the habit of eating hard foods and crunching on ice If You Grind Your Teeth, Use a Mouthguard Detecting abnormalities early through regular checkups If you experience even the slightest tooth sensitivity or tingling, we recommend that you get it checked at a nearby dental clinic before it is too late.

Recently on social media and beauty communities Conditions for youth There are keywords that frequently appear as. 🟢 as soon as philtrum length no see. As the perception spread that the shorter the distance between the nose and the upper lip, the younger and more vibrant one looks, Even without major surgery Philtrum reduction surgery where you can expect a change in appearance Interest in it is growing.

What is philtrum reduction surgery? Why does a longer philtrum make you look older? 🟢 As skin elasticity decreases, the distance between the nose and lips widens, and facial proportions collapse. After middle age As skin elasticity decreases and tissues sag downwards The philtrum (the area between the nose and the upper lip) gradually lengthens. If the philtrum lengthens, the proportion of the lower face increases. Changed to a tired and aged appearance regardless of facial expression The overall feeling of lack of vitality has become stronger. Philtrum reduction surgery is a procedure that shortens the length of the philtrum and improves the ratio between the nose and lips by excising or repositioning the skin below the nose. In other words, by appropriately narrowing the increased distance between the nose and lips This is a method to restore balance to your facial proportions. It is not simply about cutting it short, but is closer to the concept of adjusting the ratio. What effects can I expect from philtrum reduction surgery? 🟢 Your lips will look naturally lifted, and your entire face will look more vibrant.

Who is it suitable for, and in what cases should one be cautious? 🟢 It is suitable if you are concerned about looking older due to a lengthened philtrum, but if it is already short, you should make a careful decision. ✔️ This is suitable for people like this. Middle-aged people concerned about looking older due to a long philtrum When the lips appear thin and droopy, giving a lifeless look ⚠️ In such cases, a cautious approach is necessary. If the philtrum is already short If you expect excessive anti-aging effects In cases where skin elasticity is severely reduced → Consider combining with other lifting procedures In cases where skin elasticity is severely reduced, combining philtrum reduction surgery with a lifting procedure is sometimes considered rather than performing the surgery alone. 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. What you must know before philtrum reduction surgery? 🟢 Satisfaction is determined not by 'making it shorter,' but by 'harmony with the overall facial proportions.'

[Health Column] Post-Orthodontic Retainers: Do You Really Have to Wear Them for Life? A Comprehensive Guide to Protecting Gum Bone and Teeth[7]
🦷 Hello, Dr. Oh Su-hwan, Director of Smile D Dental Clinic no see. As before-and-after photos of orthodontic treatment have recently become a hot topic on social media, Adult Orthodontics Interest in it has risen higher than ever. But actually What care is required after removing the braces Many people overlook this without knowing. There are so many people who ask, "Isn't the day you take off your braces the end of it?" but actually Maintenance device management This is truly the final stage of orthodontic treatment. In today's column, I will candidly explain why dentists emphasize retainers so much, as well as clarify some common misconceptions. 1️⃣ Why do teeth try to return to their original positions after orthodontic treatment? This is because the tissues surrounding the tooth remember its 'previous position'. Many people think of teeth as stones firmly embedded in the gum bone, but in reality, they are constantly moving Living tissue no see. For about a year immediately after orthodontic treatment, the gum bone has not yet hardened, so without a 'safety belt' called a retainer, the teeth can quickly shift. Around the teeth Periodontal ligament There is a tissue called... — you can think of it as fibrous tissue that connects the teeth and the gum bone. This tissue has a good memory, so if the device is removed, the teeth The force attempting to return to the previous position This works It is a principle similar to how a rubber band returns to its original length when stretched and released. Although I applied force to move my teeth throughout the entire orthodontic period, from the moment the appliance is removed, this 'Recurrence tendency' This begins. That is why a retention device is absolutely necessary. 2️⃣ What are the types of retainers, and are they really uncomfortable? There are two types, fixed and removable, and you will adapt to them faster than you think. Most people have a negative reaction to retainers. 'Discomfort' class Wearing period It originates from. However, many people say that it is easier than expected once they actually experience it. The fixed retainer is completely invisible from the outside, and the foreign body sensation disappears after about a week, so you will eventually forget that it is even attached. Fixed retainer — This method involves attaching a thin wire to the inside of the front teeth. Since it is not visible from the outside, you do not need to worry about it at all, even during job interviews or important occasions. removable retainer — It is a removable device. You must wear it consistently for the first 6 months to a year, except during meals, but once your teeth have settled, Only when sleeping You just need to wear it. Just as you put on pajamas before going to sleep, wearing a retainer before bed is also If you just make it a habit It is not a hassle at all. It is far from the perception of being a 'lifelong shackle'. 3️⃣ What problems might arise if you neglect your retainer? Not only can your teeth become misaligned, but it can also affect the health of your gum bone. There are people who lightly dismiss it, saying, "Surely it won't get a little misaligned?" but our bodies are During the aging process, the gum bone gradually weakens. If you neglect your retainer and your teeth shift again, you will need 're-orthodontics,' which will double the cost and time. Even people who haven't had braces experience changes in their teeth alignment as they age, and if you don't wear a retainer after treatment... The speed of that change becomes much faster. The front teeth may become slightly crooked or gaps may form between the teeth. If your teeth become misaligned again, there will be parts that are difficult to brush, and gum inflammation The risk of tooth decay may also increase. 👉 A retainer keeps straightened teeth in place for a long time The most reliable and economical management method no see. How about thinking of it as 'AS insurance' that protects the results you worked so hard to correct? 4️⃣ Do I eventually have to wear a retainer for the rest of my life? Wear it for as long as possible, but the duration can be adjusted in consultation with a specialist. Many people feel burdened by the news that they have to wear a retainer for the rest of their lives. To start with the conclusion, Teeth are tissues that move throughout life. For this reason, it is ideal to wear it for as long as possible. However, since you can gradually reduce the wearing time after your teeth have stabilized for a certain period, please consult with your specialist to adjust it. At first, I wear it almost all day, but as time goes by Only when sleeping Proceed to the wearing step. In the case of a fixed retainer, there is no significant inconvenience in daily life. long-term maintenance It is possible ⚠️ One thing I would like to ask of you is that if you do not plan to wear your retainer properly You should carefully consider the orthodontic treatment itself. It is. It might sound a bit strong, but your precious time and money This is sincere advice to protect it. 🙋 Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ) Q. What should I do if the retainer falls off or breaks? A. You need to visit a dentist as soon as possible. Because teeth can move slightly even when the device is removed, Prompt action is the best way to prevent recalibration. no see. Q. How do I clean a removable retainer? A. Use a dedicated cleaner, or Gently brush with a toothbrush under running cold water You can wipe it clean. Please be sure to avoid hot water, as it may deform the device. Q. My gums are swollen or bleeding. Could this be related to the retainer? A. Although it is rare for the retainer itself to cause gum inflammation, around the fixed appliance If tartar builds up, it can affect gum health. Regular scaling and thorough brushing habits are important, and if gum swelling or bleeding recurs, we recommend getting a checkup at a dental clinic. Wrapping up Orthodontic treatment does not end on the day the appliance is removed. The process of maintaining the results through a maintenance device Up to this point is the true completion. When choosing a hospital, rather than comparing only costs, Whether the follow-up care program is systematic Please make sure to check if regular checkups are thoroughly taken care of. If you want to maintain the straight teeth you worked so hard to achieve for 10 or 20 years from now, why not get familiar with your retainer starting today? We are rooting for your healthy and confident smile. ✨ 👨‍⚕️ Oh Su-hwan Chief Director 🏥 Smile D Dental Clinic 📌 - Graduated from Yonsei University College of Dentistry 📌 - Major in Orthodontics, Yonsei University Graduate School of Dentistry 📌 - Board-certified Orthodontist by the Ministry of Health and Welfare 📌 - Regular Member of the Korean Association of Orthodontists 📌 - Completed Internship and Residency in Orthodontics, Ewha Womans University Mokdong Hospital 📌 - International Member of the American Association of Orthodontists (AAO) 📌 - International Member of the World Federation of Correctional Organizations (WFO) 📌 - Regular Member of the Korean Association of Orthodontists 📌 - Certified by the Korean Association of Orthodontists View more expert columns by Dr. Oh Su-hwan, Chief Director of Smile D Dental Clinic > - Health Column: Considering Orthodontics? 4 Orthodontic Cases You Absolutely Need - Health Column: Black Triangles, Why Do They Form?

hello, Dr. Jeong Ga-i, Director of Le Miel Plastic Surgery no see. When considering a lifting procedure, as much as the effect Pain or side effect burden This often leads to hesitation. Especially for those who were hesitant about procedures using thermal energy like Ulthera or Thermage, Non-heat lifting You might be interested in this. today Levinas Lifting What kind of procedure this is I will calmly summarize what changes you can expect and what you should check before the procedure. What is Levinas Lifting? 📚 This is a non-invasive lifting procedure that uses shockwaves instead of heat. Levinas Lifting is Extracorporeal shock wave It is a non-invasive lifting procedure using [it]. 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'. When shock waves are transmitted to skin tissue Physical stimulation of tissue This is applied, and in the process, compressed tissues are relaxed, lymphatic circulation is activated, and the regeneration of collagen and elastin can be induced. 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. As the tight facial fascia and tissues relax, the jawline appears more refined, and you may feel that the facial contours have become much lighter. There are also cases where you feel that swelling has decreased and your skin tone has brightened due to improved lymphatic circulation. The second one is Subjective comfort no see. Rather than expecting immediate, dramatic changes with this procedure, those who receive the treatment "Feeling light on the face" , “I feel like it’s easier to make facial expressions” , Feeling less stiff in the jaw There are many cases where they tell me that. However, there is an important point here. Levinas Lifting is Rather than expecting a significant immediate lifting effect right after the procedure It is closer to a method of seeing gradual improvement over time and through repeated procedures. in other words, A feeling of sudden, dramatic change Rather than expecting results, it is more realistic to understand this as a procedure for consistently managing your skin condition. Are there any precautions or side effects for Levinas Lifting? It is non-invasive and does not use heat, but individual differences must be taken into account. Levinas Lifting is a non-invasive procedure and does not use thermal energy, so The recovery period is short and the risk of side effects is relatively low. no see. Temporary redness or mild swelling may occur after the procedure, but it is generally advised that these symptoms subside within a few days. but Just because the side effects are low does not mean that the same results will occur for everyone. 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. For example, even with the same concern about "sagging," the approach may differ depending on the cause. So rather than simply being a trendy procedure Whether it matches my condition It is more important to look at . Who can benefit from Levinas Lifting, and who should avoid it? 📚 It can be an option for those looking for a low-burden lifting procedure, but it is not suitable for everyone. The cases where Levinas lifting can be helpful are as follows. 🔸 For those who find thermal lifting procedures burdensome 🔸 Those who have experienced side effects from Ulthera, Thermage, etc. 🔸 People with jaw joint discomfort or facial muscle tension 🔸 Patients with remaining tissue adhesions after facial contouring or facelift surgery 🔸 People who frequently experience stiffness in the neck and shoulders and have poor facial circulation 🔸 For those who desire facial comfort and improved circulation rather than dramatic changes Conversely, more careful verification is required in the following cases. 🔸 In cases where the degree of sagging is severe 🔸 If you want an immediate and noticeable lifting effect 🔸 If you have a history of skin diseases or a specific constitution In such cases, consult thoroughly with a specialist before the procedure. The process of first determining suitability This is important. What should I know before the Levinas Lifting procedure? It is important to first identify the cause of my sagging and the treatment plan. If you are considering a Levinas lift, first today Degree and Causes of Skin Sagging It is good to understand this. This is because the approach may differ depending on whether the sagging is caused by myofascial release, fat reduction, or skeletal changes. 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. How painful is the Levinas Lift? A1. It is often performed without the use of thermal energy or anesthesia. While it varies by individual sensitivity, it is generally known to be less painful than other lifting procedures. You may feel slight pressure or vibration during the procedure, and the intensity can be adjusted according to your condition. Q2. When do you start to feel the effects? A2. Levinas Lifting is a procedure that provides gradual changes through tissue relaxation and improved circulation, rather than immediate results.

How often should I receive it? ? A3. The number of treatment sessions and the intervals vary depending on the skin condition and the degree of sagging. While some institutions advise that repeated procedures at relatively short intervals are possible, it is advisable to determine the appropriate procedure cycle based on the judgment of a specialist after diagnosis. conclusion Levinas Lifting is A procedure differentiated from conventional lifting in that it does not use thermal energy no see. ✔️With low pain and a short recovery period, it can be an option for those who found heat lifting burdensome. but You cannot expect the same effect on everyone. ⚠️ The appropriate method may vary depending on the cause and degree of skin sagging and individual skin condition, and in cases of severe sagging, other options may need to be considered. so The important thing is Accurately assessing my condition first, rather than the procedure itself no see.

hello, Park Ji-hoon, Chief Director of Beautiful Korean Medicine Clinic no see. When looking in the mirror or taking a picture, If only one corner of the mouth looks droopy or, conversely, only one side looks up There are people I am concerned about. At first, it is easy to dismiss it as just a facial expression habit, but over time, you may notice that your overall facial impression looks different. Asymmetry of the corners of the mouth is It may not be just a problem with the visible shape of the lips. In this column Causes of Asymmetry in Corners of the Lip and Non-Surgical Treatment Approaches I will organize it step by step. 📘 What is the root cause of asymmetry in the corners of the mouth? 💡 Asymmetry of the corners of the mouth can be linked not only to the shape of the lips but also to issues with the balance between the upper and lower jaws. It is easy to think of asymmetry in the corners of the mouth as simply a problem around the mouth, but Misalignment of the skeletal positions of the maxilla (upper jaw) and mandible (lower jaw) This is often the root cause. 📌In other words, behind the visible difference in the mouth shape Problems with the balance of the facial central axis and the jaw It means that they can be together. In this case, rather than trying to correct only the corners of the mouth, An approach that examines the balance between the lower and upper jaws together This is important. To this end Facial bone correction By doing so, correct the basic balance and establish a foundation so that the position of the corners of the mouth does not remain a temporary change. It loses. for example, This may apply to cases where one side of the mouth appears more droopy than the other whenever a photo is taken, or where the left and right sides look different in height when smiling. 🔸 If you've been constantly bothered by only one corner of your mouth 🔸 Don't view it as just a simple facial expression habit 🔸 A perspective that also considers skeletal balance This may be necessary 📘 How do you treat lips with unnatural movement? If the movement of the muscles around your mouth has become unbalanced, you may need to go through a process of relearning natural movements. . If lip asymmetry occurs Nerve signals that move the muscles around the mouth can gradually become imbalanced. It is. At this time, it is not simply a matter of changing the shape, A direction that naturally retrains the movement itself. Access it as. ✔️To this end Low-frequency current stimulation Naturally relearn the movement of the levator labii superioris muscle by utilizing I will make you do it. ✔️Also High-frequency thermal stimulation By combining this to improve skin sagging around the corners of the mouth and elasticity We are raising it. Simply put, In cases where the movement of one corner of the mouth is awkward or one side rises less than the other when smiling A process of inducing more natural muscle movements It can be understood as. 🔸 Low-frequency electrical stimulation: Muscle movement relearning 🔸 High-frequency thermal stimulation: Improves sagging and elasticity around the corners of the mouth 🔸 Goal: More natural and defined mouth shape ⚠️ Since the treatment intensity or method of application may vary depending on the individual's condition, The process of first verifying the current asymmetric patterns and movement states This is important. 📘 How can muscle adhesions that cause the corners of the mouth to droop be resolved? 💡 If there is a strong downward pulling force on the corners of the mouth or adhesions, an approach to relax them may be necessary. . As a cause of the corners of the mouth drooping downward Muscles that pull the corners of the mouth downward Pulling force of the Depressor Anguli Oris (DAO) , and Thin under the skin Fascial layer (SMAS layer) There is a problem. In this case, rather than simply pulling it up from the outside, An approach that alleviates the causes of sagging together This can be seen as necessary. To this end Adhesion lysis Using Gently relaxes areas where muscles and fascia are adhered, It can alleviate the drooping movement of the corners of the mouth and simultaneously strengthen the Levator Labii Superioris (LLS). It is. Through this process A natural smile that isn't forced , and Forming a smooth front cheek line You can expect up to this point. For example, if one corner of the mouth appears to drop lower even when at rest, or if the shape of the mouth looks unnaturally bent when smiling, this approach may be considered. 🔸 Relieving the downward pull of the corners of the mouth 🔸 Relaxation of adhered areas 🔸 Helps create a natural smile line FAQ Q1. Are skeletal correction or adhesion lysis very painful? A1. The degree to which it is felt varies from person to person, but They explain that since it is performed using non-surgical methods, most people can undergo it without significant discomfort. In addition, adhesion lysis is It is possible to proceed with minimal pain by using a treatment tool of fine thickness. Q2. What does electrical stimulation therapy for neural relearning feel like? A2. Stimulation like low-frequency current gently tapping the muscles It may feel like... It is a process of awakening the movement of stiff muscles around the mouth, after the procedure The mouth feels much lighter You can receive. Q3. How many sessions does it usually take to see the effects of the treatment? A3. You can see immediate results from a single treatment, but , in order to completely change the misaligned skeletal and muscular memory, depending on the condition 3 to 10 treatment sessions are recommended. do. conclusion Losing a tooth may not simply mean the creation of a single empty space. As time passes Tilting of surrounding teeth, changes in occlusion, alveolar bone resorption This is because multiple changes can follow together, like this. In particular, it is important not to overlook the fact that a problem that initially appears small can later lead to more extensive treatment. This does not mean you must rush to decide on treatment, but Checking the current state first and establishing criteria for judgment It is necessary. 📌 Even if the discomfort is not significant, if the period of neglect is prolonged, it may be helpful to have it checked at least once. ✨ Please carefully determine the best direction for your dental condition through a consultation with a medical professional.

[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.

[Health Column] Gum Health: What You Eat Without Thinking Is Dissolving Your Gums? Key Foods and Eating Habits to Avoid[4]
hello, Smile Dental Clinic of Director Oh Su-hwan no see. Have you ever experienced bleeding gums while brushing your teeth or teeth feeling sensitive when exposed to cold water? 🦷 It's easy to dismiss it as "I'm just tired," but it could actually be a signal from your gums. Gum health is an important management factor that goes beyond simple oral issues and is linked to overall health. Today, I'll give you a quick overview of foods that damage your gums and eating habits that protect them. ✨ 1. Did you know the three worst foods that damage your gums? ✨Foods that you eat frequently in your daily life can increase gum inflammation and burden. Among the foods we enjoy without thinking, there are some that put a strain on the gums and worsen inflammation. Especially for those with weak gums, diet choices are a more important management point than you might think. 🔸 Sticky and hard foods (jelly, caramel, macaroons, squid, nuts) Snacks that stick to your teeth create an environment where bacteria can easily linger. Additionally, hard foods can cause excessive irritation to the gums during chewing, which can increase the burden. ✔Example: If you feel something stuck between your teeth for a long time after eating a snack ✨After consumption, it is important to rinse with water and take good care of your oral health. 🔸 Acidic drinks (cola, cider, fruit juice) As soon as it enters the mouth, it can irritate the tooth surface and create an environment for gum inflammation. ✔Example: If you feel a tingling sensation after drinking carbonated beverages frequently ✨ Reducing the frequency of consumption and making it a habit to rinse your mouth after drinking can help. 🔸 Alcohol Alcohol dries out your mouth and reduces saliva production. When saliva decreases, the mouth's self-cleaning function weakens, creating an environment where bacteria can easily multiply. ✔Example: Dry mouth and sensitive gums the day after drinking ✨ It is recommended to pay more attention to hydration and oral care after drinking. 2. What are the top 3 'soulmate' foods that help keep your gums healthy? ✨Dietary elements that can help manage gum tissue and inflammation. Conversely, there are also positive eating habits that help gum regeneration and reduce inflammation. Simply including it naturally in your regular diet can help with management. 🔸 Vitamin C (strawberries, paprika, lemon, etc.) Vitamin C is an essential ingredient in the formation of collagen, a key component of gum tissue. ✔Example: Diet low in fruits and vegetables ✨ Try to include fresh vegetables and fruits in your diet often. 🔸 Fiber and omega-3 (apples, broccoli, mackerel, salmon) Fibrous foods help keep the surfaces of your teeth naturally clean during the chewing process. Omega-3 is known to play a positive role in alleviating gum inflammation. ✔Example: If you only eat soft foods ✨ It is important to eat a varied and balanced diet. 🔸 Kim, green tea, onion Kimchi's vitamin B12 can help with cell regeneration, The catechins in green tea and the antibacterial properties of onions have a positive effect on managing the gum environment. ✔Example: When your gums are frequently swollen or sensitive ✨ Consider balancing your diet instead of eating spicy foods. 3. What is the difference between 'how you eat' and 'what you eat'? ✨Just changing your eating habits can help reduce the burden on your gums. Just as important as eating good food is your eating habits. Chewing too hard or eating too quickly can put constant stress on certain teeth and gums. ✔Example: Feeling of pain in the jaw or gums after eating too quickly ✨ Chewing slowly for a long time promotes saliva production and helps cleanse the mouth. Also, if it is difficult to completely avoid sweet foods or acidic drinks, It is important to rinse your mouth with water immediately after consumption and develop the habit of brushing your teeth more thoroughly than usual. ✨ Just two things – “chew slowly + rinse after eating” – can make a difference in management. FAQ Q1. If my gums bleed, should I brush my teeth hard? A1. No. Bleeding can be a sign of inflammation, so it's better to brush gently and massage your gums rather than using strong pressure. Q2. Does Omega-3 help with gum health? A2. It is known to have a positive effect on alleviating gum inflammation. If necessary, it is recommended to consult a specialist and adjust intake. Q3. Is it possible to prevent gum disease just by brushing my teeth well? A3. It is difficult to remove bacteria between teeth by brushing alone, so it is important to use dental floss or an interdental brush. conclusion ✔️ The key to gum care is ‘eating habits + basic oral care.’ Sticky foods, acidic drinks, and dry oral environments can put a strain on gum health. Conversely, a balanced diet and the habit of chewing slowly are the most realistic management methods in daily life. ⚠️ If left untreated, gum disease can lead to gum bone damage and dental problems. The safest approach is to maintain regular checkups and basic care habits. If uncomfortable symptoms persist, we recommend consulting a medical professional for a thorough checkup. 🦷✨ Smile D Dental Clinic CEO Oh Su-hwan - Graduated from Yonsei University College of Dentistry - Department of Orthodontics, Yonsei University Graduate School of Dentistry - Orthodontic specialist certified by the Ministry of Health and Welfare - Regular member of the Korean Orthodontic Association - Completed internship and residency at Ewha Womans University Mokdong Hospital, Department of Orthodontics - International member of the American Academy of Orthodontics (AAO) - International member of the World Federation of Orthodontics (WFO) - Regular member of the Korean Orthodontic Association - Certified by the Korean Orthodontic Association See more expert columns from Smile Dental Clinic Director Oh Su-hwan 📎 [Expert Column] Is transparent braces, a wire-free orthodontic treatment, really unnoticeable? 📎 [Expert Column] Is Dental Laminates Really "No Prep"?

In particular, even for the same 'discoloration', the management method and approach may differ depending on the cause. In this article, we will provide an easy-to-understand summary of practical solutions to tooth discoloration based on its causes. 1. How do tooth discoloration management methods differ depending on the cause? ? 👋 Tooth discoloration management strategies vary depending on whether the cause is extrinsic or intrinsic. . Tooth discoloration is a major When pigment builds up on the surface of the teeth and, When it occurs due to a change in the color of the inside of the tooth can be divided into Even if it looks like the same color change, the cause is different. Approaches may vary, including scaling, lifestyle management, and professional treatment. Example 🪥 If it turns yellow due to coffee, wine, etc. Teeth that have become increasingly darker after trauma ✔️Advice Rather than judging only by the colors you see After identifying the cause, it is important to choose the appropriate management method. 2. Can extrinsic discoloration be improved through lifestyle management alone? ? 👋 Extrinsic discoloration can be alleviated through lifestyle changes and regular care. . Extrinsic discoloration is discoloration that occurs when pigment is deposited on the tooth surface. It is often influenced by food, drinks, and lifestyle habits. ☕ 🔹How to manage Reduce your intake of coffee, red wine, and carbonated drinks Rinse with water after eating food that causes staining Reduce tooth contact area by using a straw Smoke-free lifestyle Regular scaling Scaling in particular removes tartar and plaque. Reduces the area where stains remain and smoothens the tooth surface It helps to prevent pigments from sticking. Example 🥤 People who drink coffee often Just making it a habit to rinse immediately after consumption can help manage discoloration. ✔️Advice The earlier the pigmentation, the better it is to combine lifestyle management and regular checkups. 3. Why is it difficult to improve intrinsic discoloration with scaling alone? ? 👋 Intrinsic discoloration is a change in the color of the teeth, and simple management alone has its limitations. . Intrinsic discoloration refers to changes in the color of the inside of the tooth, particularly the dentin. In this case, simple lifestyle management or scaling alone is not enough.

[Health Column] Ulthera Lifting: Key Information from Experts, From Pain to Side Effects ✨[5]
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

[Health Column] Why did the flu vaccine change from quadrivalent to trivalent? A comprehensive overview of the reasons for the reduction in numbers and the actual preventive effects.[3]
Hello, this is Director Choi Woo-hyuk. 💉 As flu vaccination season approaches, we're hearing a lot of questions like, "Why a trivalent vaccine this year?" 📌 In the past, quadrivalent vaccines were the standard, but now that the number has been reduced, there are concerns that the effectiveness may be reduced. However, this change is closer to an 'optimization' than a downgrade. There is clear evidence behind this in surveillance data from global health organizations. From now on, I will slowly explain the reason. Why are flu vaccines divided into quadrivalent and trivalent? 📢 Included in vaccine A distinction that refers to the number of types of viruses no see. The quadrivalent and trivalent in the flu vaccine 👉 How many flu viruses are in the vaccine? It means. Past quadrivalent vaccines Type A, Type 2 Type B 2 Currently, there are three vaccines Type A, Type 2 Type B 1 📌 So it looks like the number has decreased by one, This change Selective adjustments to reflect trends That's the key point. What is the scientific reason for the change from 4 to 3? 📢 Results excluding non-prevalent viruses no see. Every year, the World Health Organization (WHO) predicts the flu viruses most likely to be prevalent that year and issues recommendations. From the 2024–2025 season onwards Type A (H1N1, H3N2): Same as before Type B: ❌ Excluding Yamagata series ⭕ Only maintain Victorian series The reason is simple. Because the B-type Yamagata series has rarely been detected in humans no see. Why was the B-type Yamagata series excluded? 📢 Because it was observed to have ‘virtually disappeared’ through objective surveillance. According to data from the European Center for Disease Prevention and Control, etc. In recent years B-type Victoria series detected in large numbers Type B Yamagata series is rarely confirmed This does not simply mean “it has decreased”, It is judged to be not actually popular It has been done. 📌 So WHO Rather than including one unnecessary virus species Focusing on the currently prevalent virus I chose . If it's a trivalent vaccine, won't the flu prevention effect be reduced? 📢 No, there is no basis for believing that the preventive effect has been reduced. This is the part that most people are worried about. But the trivalent vaccine ✔️ Contains only essential viruses ✔️ Designed to fit the current trend in other words, It is more accurate to understand it as an 'optimized vaccine' that has removed unnecessary components. Just because the number has decreased The scope of protection has not been significantly reduced. Is this change a decision specific to a specific country? 📢 This is a standard that is being applied simultaneously by public health organizations around the world. This transition to a trivalent vaccine WHO US CDC Korea Centers for Disease Control and Prevention Japan, UK, etc. 📌 A trend that is applied equally worldwide no see. In that it is not a choice of a specific country or a specific hospital. There is no reason to be anxious. FAQ Q1. I had a 4-year-old last year, but this year I have a 3-year-old, so I'm worried. Will it be okay? A1. Yes. With a reasonable composition, excluding viruses that are not currently prevalent, there is no reason to believe that the preventive effect is insufficient. Q2. Would it be a better option to request the quadrivalent vaccine at the hospital? A2. Current health guidelines recommend a trivalent vaccine, and there is no scientific reason to insist on a quadrivalent vaccine. Q3. What is more important than the type of vaccine? A3. More than any other family or species Vaccination at the right time This is the most important. conclusion ✔️ The change from 4 to 3 is not a downgrade. ✔️ Except for non-prevalent viruses reasonable adjustment no see. ✔️ Health organizations around the world are applying the same standards. 💉 To prevent winter flu Rather than worrying unnecessarily Vaccination at the right time Focus on . If necessary, you can get vaccinated after sufficient consultation with medical staff.

[Health Column] Why Lower Eyelid Surgery Changes the Midface Appearance: A Guide to SOOF Lower Eyelid Surgery[14]
hello, Garnet Plastic Surgery Director Baek In-su no see. As I get older, the face in the mirror It looks unusually long There are times when I feel that way. Especially after 50, it is not just a feeling of sagging, The impression of a sunken area between the eyes and cheeks, with the center of the face collapsed This stands out. In this column, 🔹 Key changes in mid-facial aging in your 50s 🔹 What is the principle behind the restoration of the SOOF lower eyelid surgery? Let me organize it calmly. I will explain focusing on the points that people actually worry about the most. Why does mid-face aging in the 50s appear as 'lengthening and sunken'? 🟢The core of mid-face aging in your 50s is not sagging, Vertical elongation and volume loss no see. So why does this change occur? 🔸 Three key causes ✔️ Relaxation of the orbicularis oculi muscle and supporting ligaments → The boundary between the lower eyelid and the midface collapses, making the area under the eyes appear longer. ✔️ Anterior protrusion and downward displacement of orbital fat → The area under the eyes becomes bulging and the cheeks underneath become relatively sunken. ✔️ Midfacial fat pad descent and reduced bone support → The volume of the front of the face is reduced, and the tear trough and starting point of the nasolabial fold are emphasized. Because of this ✔ The gap between the under-eye area and the cheek area is getting bigger ✔ The center of the face appears long and sunken ✔ Overall Old eyes and tired appearance This is formed. What is the concept of restoration in SOOF lower eyelid surgery? 🟢Not just removal An approach to reconnecting the structure no see. Spoo Haan Black Surgery to structurally restore aging of the lower eyelids and midface no see. 🔹 1. Conservative repositioning of orbital fat Protruding fat Without removing , To the tear trough and mid-face sunken area Advancement/Redeployment do. ✔ Naturally connects the volume between the under-eye area and the cheek ✔ Prevents excessive turning off and artificial impression 🔹 2. Orbicularis oculi muscle-midfacial complex elevation Relaxed orbicularis oculi muscle and mid-facial soft tissue Fixation in the superolateral direction do. ✔ Prevents lower eyelid sagging ✔ Restores the midface to look short and elastic This is not a simple skin excision, Functional and structural repositioning It corresponds to . 🔹 3. Visual shortening of the midface length Under-eye-cheek border Reset upward As it becomes ✔ The vertical length of the midface appears short ✔ Restores the impression of a condensed center of the face ✨ What changes can I expect with a Spu Haan eyelid lift? 🟢More than 'getting younger' Comfortable and stable impression change is the key. 🔸 Major changes to expect ✔ Reduces under-eye puffiness ✔ Improvement of tear troughs and dark circles ✔ Midfacial depression restoration ✔ Effect of shortening the vertical length of the midface ✔ Tired impression → Clear and stable impression Especially in the 50s Rather than “while” “You look healthier”, “Your impression has become more relaxed”, the changes are noticeable. Are there any post-operative procedures or precautions? 🟢It is important to know the recovery process and possible side effects in advance. 🔹 General postoperative course Pain: Mild (controllable with over-the-counter painkillers) Swelling: 1-2 weeks, residual swelling: 3-4 weeks Bruise: Varies from person to person 🔹 Possible side effects temporary conjunctival edema Left-right asymmetry (most improves during recovery) ⚠️ Risk of hallux valgus with excessive traction → Setting the correct fixed point is important FAQ Q1. What is the difference between Spoo lower eyelid surgery and regular lower eyelid surgery? A1. If the general lower eyelid surgery focuses on fat removal, the Spu lower eyelid surgery focuses on Preserve and redistribute the fat and restore the midface as well. The biggest difference is what you do. Q2. I had surgery under my eyes. Can the mid-face also improve? A2. It is possible. The lower eyelid and the midface are connected by the orbicularis oculi muscle and ligaments, so through suspension Visual improvement of the midface to make it look shorter and more elastic You can expect. Q3. If I don't remove the fat, won't it bulge again? A3. Properly redistributed fat is rather Role in filling sunken areas , and the likelihood of recurrence is low. Conclusion ✨ ✔ The key to mid-face aging in your 50s is Lengthening and sinking ✔ Spoo Haan Black Restructuring, not removal Surgery focused on ✔ The change in impression is more than ‘excessive age’ A comfortable and stable face However, aging continues, 📌 Results may vary depending on individual skin elasticity and lifestyle habits. As much as an approach that suits your facial structure is necessary, 👉 It is important to make a decision through sufficient consultation. do.

So, front tooth implant is not a “treatment to implant one tooth”, The process of adjusting it to suit my face It's close to . ✔️ Check out these details in the review Is the shape of the front teeth as natural as natural teeth? Is the left-right symmetry not awkward? Is the gum line smooth? 🔸 Rather than simply “you’ve become prettier”, Reviews explaining what was natural It has high reference value. Why is it important to look at the 'gum line' in front tooth implant reviews? 🦷It is often the changes in the gums rather than the teeth that determine satisfaction. Front tooth implants will wear off over time. Changes in the gum line rather than the teeth themselves It may feel bigger. It is especially good to look into the following cases more closely. 🔸 If you need to check My gums are originally thin Narrow or absorbed front tooth bone If a long time has passed since extraction ✔️ In the review Are there any photos immediately after the procedure? Is there a status after a certain period of time? Do your gums appear to be receding or feel like they are receding? Let's check these parts together.

When your front teeth fall out ㅅ, ㅈ, ㅊ, ㅆ Many people feel like air is leaking from the same consonant. Most pronunciations are stable after implants, but Even if the position or length of the teeth is slightly different, There may be some awkwardness. ✔️ Points worth looking at together in the review Did you experience any discomfort while eating? Has your pronunciation become more natural? I wonder if the foreign body sensation lasts long. 🔸 Reviews with actual usage experience are very helpful in assessing results.

Whether there was a bone graft or gum treatment Why did you make that choice? Whether the reason was sufficiently explained 🔸 Reviews that contain a transparent process generally have a high level of satisfaction. Why is ‘aftercare’ important in front tooth implant reviews? 🦷Implants require longer maintenance than the procedure itself. Front tooth implants do not end with surgery. Regular checkups, gum checks, surrounding care, etc. Aftercare It is key to long-term use. ⚠️ Implants do not have nerves, so even if a problem occurs, it may not be noticeable in the early stages. ✔️ Check out the reviews to see if they include this: Have you received regular checkup guidance? Have you heard the detailed explanation of how to manage it? In case of inconvenience Whether quick action was possible Front tooth implants: Why is the 'process' more important than the cost? 🦷Results are created through diagnosis, planning, and management. The cost of front tooth implants can vary depending on the material, whether bone grafting is required, and the type of prosthesis. But the front teeth Areas that are difficult to retouch Because of this, In the end, what matters is The flow of diagnosis-planning-aesthetics-aftercare is more important than price. no see. 🔸 “It went well!” A review detailing the process and reasons The more days, the higher the reference value.

[Health Column] Understanding the Differences Between Forehead Augmentation Fixation Methods: Bontunneling vs. Endotine and Fixstein[6]
hello, 3D plastic surgery Researching rejuvenating and youthful surgery in Dr. Jae-won Heo, a plastic surgeon no see. Forehead Giant When I consult, I often get asked, “Does the fixed method determine the outcome?” especially Bontunneling, Endotine, Fixstein There are many concerns about which one is better. today The actual significance of the fixation method in the results of forehead augmentation Let me explain it to you calmly from the perspective of surgical structure. 1. Is the fixation method really the key in forehead augmentation? ? 🎯 The biggest factor that determines the result is the 'exfoliation range'. . Many people think that the fixation method itself determines the result, but The most important part for me in surgery is How wide and precisely was the peeling done? no see. (To put it simply, it is more important how well the skin is loosened to allow movement.) ✔️ The fixing method is Fine-tuning eyebrow shape may affect ✔️ But the key to the overall lifting effect is Scope of surgery is in. for example, If the peeling is already sufficiently well done No matter what fixation method you use, Stable results You can expect 2. Is forehead augmentation a surgery that can be adjusted in 1mm increments? 🎯Setting goals that take recovery into account is more important than precise figures. . During consultations, I often get asked, “Can you raise my eyebrows by 4mm?” To conclude, Forehead augmentation is not a surgery that is adjusted in 1mm increments like double eyelid surgery. ✔️ Even if it looks good right after surgery, ✔️ On average, over time, about It comes down again by about 3mm. If the skin is thick and tough, the recovery amount is greater. Conversely, sagging and soft skin may require less recovery. So before the surgery Based on the “final target location” Set the degree of lifting during surgery by calculating backwards do. This is not a sensory judgment, A computational approach based on experience no see. 3. What is the difference between Bontunneling and Endotine/Fixstein? 🎯There are differences in the number of fixed points, ease of adjustment, and cost. . In the case of forehead lift, the skin is sufficiently loosened through peeling. The ascended state You get to decide how you're going to 'hold on'. The method used at this time is ✔️Fixed with sutures Bontunneling , ✔️ Fixing using a device Endotine and Fixstein no see. ① Number of fixed points Endotine and Fixstein : Approximately 5 fixed points per device When using 2, a total of 10 fixed points are formed. Bontunneling : 1 suture per tunnel → 1 anchor point A total of 3 fixed points when implemented in 3 locations ✔️ Mechanically, Endotine and Fixstein have more holding power. ✔️ But The result is sufficiently stable with just the main tunneling. You can get it. 👉 It's the same principle as passing an exam where 50 points is the passing score, and both 60 and 80 points are passing points. Endotine Bontunneling ② Ease of adjustment during surgery Endotine and Fixstein It is a structure that fixes the tissue as if 'hanging' it during surgery. Fine-tuning is relatively easy . ✔️ “Should I raise it a little more?” ✔️ “Should I pull a little less?” You can respond immediately to these judgments. the other side The main tunneling method is tied with sutures. Because of this Once you tie it, you have to untie it and re-tunnel it! ⚠️ → That much Surgery that requires accurate judgment at once no see. ③ Cost and perceived effectiveness Both Endotine and Fixstein Devices with high material costs no see. Endotine, in particular, is an imported product and carries a greater cost burden. ✔️ But The difference in perceived effectiveness compared to the price is not that great. no see. ✔️ Rather, some patients Foreign body sensation/nerve irritation It can also be uncomfortable. So I I don’t see “expensive fixation = unconditionally better results.” 4. Which fixation method should I choose? ? 🎯Both methods can be good enough options depending on the patient's condition. To summarize, I can say this. ✨ Surgically, Endotine and Fixstein may be a little more convenient. ✨ You can get good results just by tunneling. What's important is ✔️ Skin thickness ✔️ Degree of sagging ✔️ Individual recovery characteristics Taking all these factors into account Choosing the right method no see. Rather than having a preconceived notion of a particular fixed method, Choose after understanding the surgical principles What you do is most important. FAQ ❓ Q1. Is it effective to peel off the forehead area up to the brow bone? A1. If your goal is to improve sagging eyelids, most procedures require access to the upper eyelid area to achieve optimal results. During surgery, I personally palpate the area to confirm the extent of the exfoliation before proceeding. Q2. Is a 3-point incision sufficient for temporal (temporal) dissection? A2. 3-point incision is a surgical method that involves making three small incisions on the forehead and performing the surgery using an endoscope. Temporal dissection can be performed using an endoscope using a three-point approach. However, in some cases, additional incisions may make the surgery easier. Q3. Does the effect increase if a large amount of the corrugator muscle is removed? A3. The corrugator magnus is the muscle that triggers frowning. Complete removal can cause a sunken forehead. Rather than complete removal, I prefer endoscopic manipulation of the causative muscle fibers. conclusion ✔️ On the forehead The fixed method is not everything. ✔️ The extent of the surgery and individual recovery characteristics have a greater impact on the outcome. ✔️ Rather than blindly sticking to a specific method, Select the right one for your situation This is important. ⚠️ All surgeries are individualized. If you have any concerns right now, Through sufficient consultation with a specialist I encourage you to find the direction that suits you. 3D plastic surgery Director Heo Jae-won Graduated from Yonsei University College of Medicine Master of Medicine, Yonsei University Graduate School Severance Hospital plastic surgery specialist 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 Society of Craniofacial Plastic Surgery 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 Regular member of the Korean Society of Plastic and Reconstructive Surgeons, Liposuction Research Group Regular member of the Korean Society of Plastic and Reconstructive Surgeons' Laser Plastic Surgery Research Group Regular member of the Korean Society of Plastic and Reconstructive Surgeons' Botox, Filler, and Thread Lifting Research Group Director of Hyeon Ipsae Plastic Surgery Clinic 10 years of experience focusing on lifting

Because there are many cases where an 'accurate diagnosis' is missing no see. Today, we will summarize the key points that those considering thread lifting should know. What is a threadlifting procedure? 👉🏻This is a non-incision procedure that lifts sagging skin with medical thread without surgery. Thread lifting is a procedure that originally appeared as an alternative to facelift surgery. Inserting medical thread into the skin The principle of physically pulling sagging skin We utilize . Unlike surgeries that require incisions, Can be performed without incision sun, It is often chosen by people who feel burdened by pain or recovery period. 🔸 Many people worry about this If you want the lifting effect but are concerned about the cost of surgery If you need a quick return to normal life What does dissolvable thread (PDO thread) do? 👉🏻 Expect the primary effect of tightening the skin + improved elasticity during the absorption process. In the past, non-dissolving threads were also used, Currently PDO thread called melting thread This is mainly used. This thread is made of a material that is also used in heart surgery, so it is highly stable. In the process of being absorbed Induces skin tissue regeneration Features There is this. ✔️ Primary effect: Directly pulls sagging skin to improve elasticity ✔️ Secondary effect: The thread is absorbed and stimulates surrounding tissues. What are the recent trends in threads used in thread lifting? 👉🏻The use of 'Cogsill' to secure the skin more firmly has increased. Medical technology is advancing rapidly, and the variety of threads continues to diversify. The trend that is currently being used a lot is Cogsill with increased tension no see. Depending on the area, the thread Length, thickness, shape is changing, Some are made in a mesh form.

[Health Column] Complete Guidelines for Smoking After Implants – The Most Dangerous Periods and Management Tips[7]
hello, Director Lee Hyeon-seop of Seoul Centum Dental Clinic no see. It is easy to think of implants as a “treatment that just ends with implantation”, In reality A long recovery process called osseointegration Determine this success do. Especially since smoking directly and indirectly affects this process, Many people ask, “When can I start smoking?” What's actually important is Do you smoke/don't you smoke? Not, 👉 Which time is the most dangerous? , 👉 What Leads to Failure , 👉 How far should we realistically manage? no see. Why is smoking a problem after implants? 🦷 This is because factors that hinder recovery occur intensively during the osseointegration stage. ✔️ Recovery is delayed due to reduced blood flow Nicotine constricts peripheral blood vessels. Blocking the supply of oxygen and nutrients do. Because blood flow is your lifeline in early recovery, smoking during this stage can make even small problems bigger. ✔️ The characteristic of 'masking' inflammation signals Smokers have inflammation In cases where pain and bleeding are minimal There is. Even if it looks fine on the outside, problems can develop internally, so peri-implantitis is often discovered late. ✔️ Increased risk of osseointegration failure Implants are a treatment that must be firmly attached to the bone, but smoking Inhibits bone cell activity itself It is known to do so. As a result, there is a risk that the initial fixation will weaken or lead to shaking over time. So then, how should we set the ‘standard’? 🦷It is crucial to accurately identify the most dangerous times. Let me give you a more realistic standard than “I absolutely must quit smoking for the rest of my life!” The risk periods are the two sections below. 🔸 ① Immediately after surgery ~ 2 weeks The wound begins to heal Early clot formation (think of a clot as the "early stage of scab" that naturally forms over a new wound! It's a must-have.) ➡️ Smoking during this period Risk of early recovery failure This high 🔸 ② 1-3 months after surgery The key steps in which osseointegration actually takes place ➡️ The section where the failure rate increases statistically significantly ⚠️ What if osseointegration is complete? Smoking does not cause implants to fall out or become loose. however Peri-implantitis, gum bone resorption, and shortened prosthesis lifespan The risk is clearly increased That is, the two realistic management standards are: ✔ At least The period for bone fusion is a thorough smoking cessation. ✔ Even after that Regular checkups + hygiene management Is it possible? FAQ Q1. Is it okay to smoke after bone fusion is complete? A1. It does not directly lead to elimination, but Peri-implantitis, bone resorption, and reduced prosthesis lifespan The danger persists. Ultimately, this means that management difficulty increases. Q2. Is 'one or two cigarettes occasionally' a problem? A2. Even a small amount may hinder recovery during the osseointegration stage. It is safe to avoid smoking for at least this period. . Q3. Can inflammation pass without pain? A3. Smokers have higher inflammatory signals. Expressed weakly There are cases where things may look fine on the outside, but problems may be developing internally. conclusion Smoking after implant It is not a question of will, but a “question of timing.” In particular, it is most important to know the following three things: When is it most dangerous? How to get through that period How to adjust your treatment plan based on whether you smoke or not Implants are not a treatment that ends the moment they are placed. A treatment that takes time to complete no see. By accurately understanding your condition and setting realistic standards, you can keep your implants healthy for a long time. If necessary, consult with your medical professional to establish a management plan that suits your situation.

[Health Column] Does Braces Cause Nasolabial Folds? — The Real Cause, Misconceptions, and a Complete Guide to Braces[10]
hello. Director Jeong Jae-wook of Gangnam Saero Dental Clinic no see. There is a concern I hear most often before getting orthodontic treatment. “They say that if you get braces, the wrinkles on your nasolabial folds will get deeper…” “I saw a review saying that my cheeks looked thinner and more slender.” I really understand these concerns. But in reality Wrinkles on the nasolabial folds = Not due to correction, but a problem of 'relative change and habit' This is much more common. today The relationship between correction and nasolabial folds , and In what cases can wrinkles appear deeper? I'll explain it to you easily. 1. Does orthodontic treatment really cause wrinkles on the forehead? 👋 Nasolabial folds are often visible due to 'changes in relative depth' rather than 'movement of teeth'. If you correct it, your mouth will go back. At this time, the starting point of the wrinkles on the forehead also moves backwards. Most of the time, the direction in which the wrinkles appear shallower It changes into . But why do I feel like my wrinkles have gotten deeper? ✔ Let me explain it easily with an example The cheeks are the same, but the mouth is sunken inward. Let me think about it. → Then, the ‘valley’ between the ball and the mouth may appear relatively prominent. That is, not “sagging” Existing wrinkles appear more prominent It's just one day. When you feel like wrinkles have suddenly appeared on your arms, Not just “creating wrinkles” Check if it is due to relative volume change I'd like to try it. 2. Why do changes in the nasolabial folds occur during correction? 👋 Lifestyle habits, muscle changes, and treatment design are the main causes. 🔸 1) Bad lip habits To hide the braces If you keep pursing your lips, muscle use increases → wrinkles become stronger. It can lead to. 🔸 2) Excessive treatment plan If you push your teeth back too far, → Okni and Hapjuki mouth As it becomes more sagging, it can actually look like sagging. This is the part that the director emphasized. Whether or not a precise diagnosis is possible based on experience is very important. 🔸 3) Reduction in masticatory muscles During braces treatment, you will be asked to avoid hard foods. → As the chewing muscles decrease Your cheeks may appear sagging and the area under your cheekbones may appear hollow. → As a result, the wrinkles on your arms may appear stronger. As long as the food is not too hard A balanced diet that naturally uses the muscles around the mouth It helps. 3. How should I plan my correction to reduce the worry about wrinkles on my forehead? 👋 We need to look at the entire facial bone structure, not just the arrangement of the teeth. 🔹 [Expert Diagnosis] Full facial analysis is key Cheek fat amount Skin elasticity The ratio of the head to the lower body Front teeth angle Upper and lower jaw balance All of these elements must be reviewed and corrected. A facial line where the nasolabial folds are not prominent can make. 🔹 [Treatment Process] Speed control is very important If you push your teeth back too quickly, → Wrinkles may appear deeper because the skin and soft tissues cannot adapt. The impatience of “I want to finish it quickly!” can actually accentuate wrinkles. 🔹 [Lifestyle] Skin Care + Facial Muscle Maintenance 💧 Drink enough water 🌞 Sunscreen is essential 🙂 facial muscle exercises : Put air in the ball and hold for 10 seconds Practice opening the corners of your mouth wide This is basic care that anyone can do without side effects. 4. How do nasolabial folds change during and after correction? 👋 Most cases recover naturally within 6 months after the end of orthodontic treatment. ✔ After removing the braces Chewing muscle recovery Restoring cheek volume soft tissue stabilization After going through this process Most wrinkles that appeared deep during correction will return to their previous state. 5. Is it possible to have dermatological procedures performed concurrently during orthodontic treatment? 👋 It is possible, but 'timing' is important. Because the lip, chin, and cheekbone lines continue to change during correction, After the outline is somewhat established (finishing stage ~ after correction is completed) I recommend this procedure. ❓ FAQ Q1. Will the deepened nasolabial folds return after correction? A1. Yes, mostly Recover naturally It will work. Changes caused by the thickness of the braces and the reduction of masticatory muscles stabilize within about 6 months after the device is removed through diet and muscle recovery. Q2. If I get orthodontic treatment, will I always have a 'happocket'? A2. No. The mouth of the bamboo is When teeth are pushed back too far As a side effect, By accurately calculating the amount of movement through a precise diagnosis, even if teeth are extracted, they can be corrected to create a natural and sophisticated line. Q3. Is orthodontic treatment for people in their 40s and 50s more dangerous due to loss of elasticity? A3. It is true that skin elasticity is low, Speed control and non-extraction priority design It is possible to do so safely enough. 📝 conclusion Orthodontic treatment Create wrinkles on the forehead is a common misconception. rather In many cases, it improves as the balance between the chin and mouth improves. The key is ✔ Precision diagnosis , ✔ Speed control , ✔ A plan that takes into account the entire facial structure no see. Rather than delaying correction due to vague fears, Consult a specialist A plan that reflects my face shape, skin elasticity, and even the condition of my masticatory muscles. Try setting it up. It will lead to slightly healthier and more natural changes.

[Health Column] Hyperbaric Oxygen Therapy: The Real Reasons and Effects of Accelerated Recovery[4]
hello, Director Moon Ji-hwan of Rebom Oriental Medicine Hospital no see. Hyperbaric oxygen therapy is known simply as “treatment that involves drinking a lot of oxygen.” In reality Treatment that changes the recovery environment of the entire body no see. This is precisely why people who experience recurring headaches, tinnitus, brain fatigue, or chronic fatigue, especially immediately after surgery or procedures, often come to us. today Why Hyperbaric Oxygen Therapy Helps Speed Recovery , and Why the effect increases with repetition I will explain it to you. How does hyperbaric oxygen therapy work? 👉 In a high-pressure environment, more oxygen dissolves in the plasma, creating a foundation for recovery. hyperbaric oxygen environment In Oxygen The amount that dissolves directly into the plasma increases significantly do. Normally, red blood cells carry oxygen, but under high pressure, As the plasma itself contains a lot of oxygen, Oxygen reaches damaged and inflamed areas much faster do. This oxygen change ✔️ Stabilizes nerve cell function ✔️ Improved blood circulation ✔️ Relieves inflammation ✔️ Promotes tissue regeneration It becomes an important foundation. To put it simply, Treatment that creates an environment in which the body can heal itself It is closest to understanding it like this. It helps when your body needs to recover, as in the cases below. When swelling or inflammation does not subside easily When recovery is slow after trauma When brain fatigue builds up and your head feels heavy For what symptoms and conditions can hyperbaric oxygen therapy be helpful? 👉Used in almost any situation that requires recovery Hyperbaric oxygen therapy is widely helpful throughout the recovery process. ✔️ Reduced bruising and swelling after treatment/surgery It can help tissue repair quickly and speed up recovery. ✔️ Improvement of headaches, tinnitus, and brain fatigue Many people complain of a “clearer head” feeling as their nervous system stabilizes. ✔️ When recovery after exercise is slow Increased oxygen supply → removal of fatigue substances → body feels less heavy. ✔️ Chronic fatigue/poor condition Many people find that their condition improves as their overall oxygen supply increases. ✔️ Assistance with wound and trauma recovery This is especially useful when rapid tissue regeneration is required. Indications for Hyperbaric Oxygen Therapy (Ministry of Health and Welfare, 2019) a. Emergency treatment B. Chronic wounds and others Other hearing loss carbon monoxide poisoning decompression sickness (bending sickness) gas embolism Anaerobic bacterial infection (gas gangrene) cyanide poisoning Acute central retinal artery occlusion Anemia due to excessive bleeding in cases where blood transfusion is not possible burn Berger's disease After skin grafting or flap surgery After resin bonding surgery Tissue necrosis following radiation therapy diabetic foot ulcers refractory osteomyelitis scalp abscess sudden hearing loss Immediately following surgery, early intensive care may be helpful to speed up recovery. For chronic fatigue, it is better to receive treatment consistently at regular intervals to ensure stable changes. Why does hyperbaric oxygen therapy become more effective with repetition? 👉Because short-term relief and 'structural recovery' are different Hyperbaric oxygen therapy is It feels refreshing even after receiving it just once I often feel that way. However, “structural changes” such as tissue recovery and reduction of inflammation Repeated oxygen supply is maintained for a certain period of time It should be. ✔️ Damaged tissue → Regeneration takes time ✔️ Chronic fatigue or brain fatigue → Repeated stabilizing stimulation is required ✔️ Maintaining a recovery environment is essential for stable results. That is, beyond short-term “refreshment” The process of ensuring that the body maintains a stable recovery environment is the core of the treatment. no see. Purpose: Reduce swelling and bruising after the procedure → Regularly perform the procedure at a certain number of times Chronic brain fatigue → Repeated management over a period of time Post-operative recovery → Initial focus followed by maintenance care How can I get the most effective hyperbaric oxygen therapy? 👉Managing your lifestyle will speed up your recovery. Hyperbaric oxygen therapy is effective alone, but The effect is greater when you manage your lifestyle patterns together. ✔️ Get enough sleep + drink plenty of water → Oxygen transport efficiency increases, and treatment effectiveness also increases. ✔️ Immediately after the procedure or surgery → If you receive intensive treatment for the first 1-2 weeks, the speed of recovery from bruising and swelling can change significantly. ✔️ Repeated headaches and brain fatigue → Changes are more stable when received consistently at regular intervals. The key is not simply “getting treated once”, Maintaining the body's own recovery flow no see. Maintain a certain interval Initial intensive care + maintenance afterwards If your condition is showing a pattern of repeated decline, periodic management is recommended. FAQ Q1. Can anyone receive hyperbaric oxygen therapy? A1. Most of them can be safely received, but Respiratory diseases or certain ear diseases In this case, prior consultation is required. Q2. How many times do I need to take it to feel the effects? A2. In many cases, you will feel refreshed after just one session. but Reduction of bruising and swelling and tissue recovery If you are aiming for Periodic maintenance of 5 to 10 times may help. Q3. Can I receive it immediately after the procedure or surgery? A3. Yes, it is possible. Rather Initial point When received, it often helps reduce bruising and swelling and speeds up recovery. conclusion “Hyperbaric oxygen therapy is a treatment that changes the body’s recovery environment itself.” Hyperbaric oxygen therapy goes beyond simply improving fatigue. Increased oxygen supply → Relief of inflammation → Promotes tissue regeneration → Balances overall recovery It creates a flow called . ✔ Recovery after treatment/surgery ✔ Headache, tinnitus, brain fatigue ✔ Chronic fatigue ✔ Post-exercise recovery You can expect help in a variety of situations. However, not everyone recovers at the same rate. Depending on your current physical condition and goals Appropriate cycle It is important to manage it.

[Health Column] Recurring Adult Acne: Why Does It Keep Occurring in the Same Spot? From Causes to Recurrence Management[4]
hello, Director Sibo Kyung of Anyu Clinic no see. “Even if you get treatment, it only lasts for a short time, and acne comes back in the same spot.” This is what people who suffer from adult acne say most often. especially Chin, around the mouth, jawline If it is repeated in a specific area, it is difficult to see it as a simple trouble. In this article Causes and Management of Recurring Adult Acne second Easy to understand Let me summarize. What is adult acne? ✔ It refers to acne that persists or appears new after the age of 25. . Adult acne is usually After age 25 This refers to cases where acne persists or new acne appears that did not exist before. The areas where it mainly appears are the chin, around the mouth, jawline, and lower cheeks. At first Starting out like a grain of rice And then, More and more inflammatory acne It often progresses like this. 📌 Differences from teenage acne Adult acne More than the amount of sebum secretion itself , Changes in sebum composition skin barrier damage An environment where inflammation persists for a long time This serves as a more important reason. Why does adult acne keep coming back? ✔ There is a reason why it is difficult to prevent relapse with only superficial treatment. . There are several common reasons why adult acne recur. 🔸 Hormonal changes and stress lack of sleep chronic stress Menstrual cycle changes → It stimulates the sebaceous glands and creates an environment that is prone to acne. 🔸 skin barrier damage Frequent extrusion The habit of frequent peeling Excessive cleansing → As the skin's defenses weaken Microinflammation persists It can be done. 🔸 Wrong treatment method Treatment that only quickly reduces visible inflammation It may look good for a while, but Limits in preventing recurrence There is. The question, “Why does it only appear in the same place?” often begins here. How do you treat recurring adult acne? ✔Short-term sedation + relapse management should be considered together. . 🔹 medication Topical retinoids: for normalizing pores and preventing recurrence Short-term oral medication when necessary ⚠️ Long-term use requires the judgment of a specialist. 🔹 Skin barrier and inflammation control treatment Rather than simple extrusion-based treatment, Regulates skin resilience and inflammation response simultaneously The approach is important. 🔹 laser treatment sebum gland regulation For the purpose of reducing inflammation 📌 Intensity control is key, Excessive treatment Risk of pigmentation can increase it. What is the most important principle in treatment? ✔ The key is 'management treatment' rather than 'elimination treatment'. The key to treating recurrent adult acne is three It is organized as follows. ✔️ Accurate diagnosis Acne, folliculitis, and rosacea each other Treatment approaches may vary . ✔️ Short-term treatment + relapse management in parallel Rather than letting it settle once, Directions for managing to prevent recurrence This is important. ✔️ Check your lifestyle habits sleep patterns Stress management Cosmetic usage habits We need to look into it together. ✨ When these three things go together, adult acne can be controlled relatively stably. 🧩 FAQ Q1. Is adult acne curable? A1. If there are constitutional factors, it is better to treat rather than cure Long-term management to reduce the frequency of relapses and the depth of inflammation becomes the goal. Q2. Will the condition not recur if I only get laser treatment? A2. Rather than single treatment Combination of drug treatment and skin regeneration management This helps. Q3. Why does chin acne keep recurring? A3. The chin area Sensitive to hormonal changes And because it is an area that is greatly affected by stress and lifestyle rhythm. conclusion Recurring adult acne is better than a 'one-and-done' treatment. 'Continuous management treatment' is important. ✔️ Accurate diagnosis tailored to your skin condition ✔️ Treatment that considers both inflammation and the skin barrier ✔️ Lifestyle management to reduce relapse When these three things come together, adult acne becomes more Manage in a stable state You can do it.

[Health Column] Herniated Discs: Why Do They Occur and Why Do They Recur? From Symptoms to Non-Surgical Management[8]
hello, Director Moon Ji-hwan of Rebom Oriental Medicine Hospital no see. When your back is stiff and pain persists, you may start to worry, “Could it be a herniated disc?” , you must have tried it at least once. Herniated disc It feels like a sudden illness, but in reality, The result of accumulated long-term postural habits and alignment breakdown. This is often the case. In particular, the feeling of back pain spreading to the buttocks or legs If this is the case, you should pay more attention. today How lumbar disc herniation begins, why it recurs, and why a structure-centered, nonsurgical approach is important. Let's talk. Read on! Why does a herniated disc occur? 👉 Because the burden on the disc is concentrated due to long-term posture and alignment problems. A herniated disc is a disc that absorbs shock between the vertebrae. A condition in which the nerves are stimulated by being pushed to one side due to the inability to withstand continuous pressure Yes. This pressure does not arise suddenly one day, ✔ Habit of sitting for long periods of time ✔ Working pattern with a bent back ✔ A life of leaning on a deep sofa ✔ Disorientation of pelvic and lumbar alignment These small habits in daily life accumulate over a long period of time and are created. Especially the intervertebral disc The structure is relatively weak at the back, so it is easy to be pushed backwards when repeated postural stress accumulates. This will cause problems. Before you suddenly feel a “twitch!” your back may have been sending signals long ago. It is important to consider the alignment surrounding your lower back rather than just the pain. What symptoms will appear if you have a herniated disc? 👉It doesn't just end with the waist, it can extend to the legs. Back pain isn't everything. When a disc irritates a nerve, pain occurs. ✔ Butt ✔ Thighs ✔ Calf ✔ Up to the feet Radiation tube type It can lead to. Additionally, symptoms may worsen when sitting for long periods of time, bending over, or leaning back excessively, and incorrect stretching may actually worsen the condition. In this case, you definitely need to check If back pain + leg numbness/pulling occurs together You need to check for nerve stimulation. Why do herniated discs recur? 👉Because pain reduction does not mean “alignment has been restored” Just because your symptoms have improved doesn't mean your structure has recovered. If the alignment issue is not resolved, pressure will be concentrated in the same area again, ultimately maintaining the 're-pushing environment'. Originally, the lower back should maintain a gentle C-shaped curve (lumbar lordosis) forward to be stable. When this disc collapses, the load is placed on a specific area of the disc, and the intervertebral disc takes over. So this is a pattern that many people experience. ✔ Get better → let your guard down → get worse again… This is not because the disk is weak, This is often because the lumbar-pelvic-hip axis continues to collapse. Non-surgical Approach: Why Is 'Restoring Spinal Alignment' Important? 👉 An approach that addresses "why the disk was pushed" rather than "the disk was pushed." Spinal alignment restoration surgery does not only look at the lower back, ✔ Waist ✔ Pelvis ✔ Hip joint Evaluating this axis together Focus on correcting broken alignments Leave it. As the alignment returns to its proper position, the pressure concentrated on the disc is relieved, Reduced burden on the nerves A more recovery-friendly environment This is created. The key is not simply to “reduce pain,” Addressing the cause to reduce recurrence are you. FAQ Q1. Do I really need surgery for a herniated disc? A1. Most cases can be recovered without surgery. However, if there are functional changes such as nerve paralysis, muscle weakness, or urinary problems, surgery may be necessary. Q2. Is stretching good for you? A2. Not all stretching is good. Excessive bending or bending of the waist can actually increase pressure, so it is important to proceed according to your individual condition. Q3. If the pain goes away, will it be a complete cure? A3. Pain relief is only part of recovery, and if alignment issues and lifestyle habits are not improved, the possibility of relapse remains. conclusion A herniated disc is not a disease that is simply caused by a single impact. The cumulative result of lifestyle and alignment issues This is often the case. So rather than just temporary pain relief, ✔ Restore balance of the lumbar-pelvic-hip joint structure ✔ Check your lifestyle habits ✔ Sorting-centric approach Doing this together is key to reducing relapse. If the pain is recurring or persists for a long time, check your current alignment and determine the cause of the stress on the disc. “It’s not about pain, it’s about correcting the structure.” It is the most important starting point for returning to a comfortable daily life.

[Health Column] Is partial front teeth correction really quick and simple? A quick overview of the benefits, precautions, and recommended options![6]
hello, Smile Dental Clinic of Director Oh Su-hwan no see. The crooked front teeth that catch my eye every time I look in the mirror, the teeth that bother me every time I take a picture… These days, I have these concerns 'Can't I just fix my front teeth quickly?' There are so many people asking questions. Especially on SNS Partial front teeth correction As before and after photos spread, Short period of time and economical cost There are also more and more people who make decisions based on just what they see. However, if you start simply believing that it will “finish quickly,” you may end up experiencing a change in your impression or discomfort. So today For whom is partial front teeth correction effective and what should be considered? Let me explain clearly from a professional perspective. . 1. Why do my front teeth become more and more misaligned? ✨For the arrangement of front teeth Congenital factors + changes in gum condition can influence each other. As we age, many people notice that their front teeth are gradually becoming misaligned. There are two main reasons for this. 🔸 congenital factors When the size of the teeth and the size of the jaw do not match If the jaw is narrow and the teeth are large → the teeth overlap and are arranged Conversely, if the jaw is large and the teeth are small → gaps between the teeth 🔸 acquired factors As the gums weaken, their ability to support the teeth decreases. Accordingly, the teeth can move slightly and deform. ✔️ So, it is actually quite common to simply say, “It was a good fit originally, but it suddenly seems to be wrong.” 2. What are the advantages of partial front teeth correction? ✨ The biggest appeal of partial front teeth correction is that it focuses on correcting only the necessary areas! Partial correction of front teeth is literally The problem is A method of attaching orthodontic devices to only 6 to 8 front teeth no see. ✔️ The treatment period is short Although full correction often takes 1-2 years or more, Partial correction can be completed in a relatively short period of time. ✔️ It's less expensive Fewer teeth to attach the device to Economical compared to full correction ✔️ There are few inconveniences in life. There is no device on the molars, so eating is less of a burden. The device has relatively little foreign body sensation or pain. 3. Is partial front teeth correction really a treatment that 'everyone' can do? ✨The most important point in partial front teeth correction is “securing space.” Partial correction of the front teeth is a treatment that is difficult to say is 'unconditionally possible'. no see. The biggest variable is Space securing problem no see. ⚠️ Please remember this! To align teeth, they need 'space' to move. If only the front teeth are corrected without moving the molars → Protrusion may occur, causing the teeth to appear to extend forward. To compensate for this, very fine grinding is done between the teeth. 'Interdental deletion' There are cases where it is in progress, If excessive, discomfort such as tooth numbness may occur. This can happen. ✔️ So rather than just starting by hearing “it’s easy” or “you can definitely do it”, Consultation with a specialist and precise diagnosis first no see. 4. I recommend partial front teeth correction to these people! From a professional perspective, partial anterior orthodontic treatment is particularly helpful in the following cases: If your teeth are slightly crooked If there is a very small gap between the front teeth If the entire dentition is fine, but only one specific tooth is protruding ✔️ That is, If the problem is localized and centered around the front teeth It could be a good choice. FAQ Q1. Can protruding teeth or a protruding chin be corrected with partial correction? A1. If there is a skeletal problem or a complete occlusion adjustment is required. It may be difficult to resolve this with just partial correction. It is recommended that you consult a dentist to get an accurate diagnosis. Q2. Is it possible to correct partial front teeth with transparent braces? A2. It is possible. However, in some cases, bracket correction may be more effective, so a thorough diagnosis is necessary. Q3. What happens if I don't like the results after partial correction? A3. If there is not enough space A situation that requires a full correction again This may happen. So your first choice is very important. Conclusion - The most important thing is to check if it is “right for me”. Partial correction of the front teeth is definitely necessary Attractive treatment in terms of time, cost, and inconvenience no see. But in actual treatment When full correction is more appropriate There are quite a few. ✔️ It's good to prepare like this before treatment Get consultations from at least 2-3 dental clinics Check with a specialist to see if treatment is right for your situation. Understand not only the expected effects but also the 'things to watch out for' As a result, Getting started by knowing what works best for your dental condition this It's the fastest and safest shortcut.

[Health Column] Is surgery really the answer for herniated cervical and lumbar discs?[9]
hello, Director Kim Hyeong-min of Rebom Oriental Medicine Hospital (Daegu Branch) no see. When neck or back pain makes daily life difficult, the first word that comes to mind for many people is ' disk 'no see. But the disc is not just a 'sore spot' problem, Changes in posture, habits, and alignment that have accumulated over a long period of time result Did you know that? This time, let's understand the disk from a slightly different perspective, When is surgery necessary? , What to be careful about in life , What management is helpful? I'd like to explain. Rather than being blindly afraid, try to understand it accurately and deal with it wisely! 1. Is a herniated disc really a disease that occurs suddenly? ✅ The disk is not the 'culprit', but rather a structure closer to the 'victim' that is the first to get tired in the collapsed alignment. When a disc bulges, it's easy to think, "The disc caused the problem," but before that, a lot of changes are already happening inside your body. turtle neck with the head tilted forward hunched sitting posture Lifestyle habits that place weight on one side As this situation repeats, pressure is concentrated on a specific area, and eventually the disc that cannot withstand it is pushed out. ✔️ Key points Disc protrusion is a 'result' The cause is a breakdown in the alignment of the entire body. It is important to look at the structure together. 2. What postures and habits can worsen disc problems? ✅ Certain movements can push the disc further toward the nerve, making symptoms worse. If you have a disk Behaviors to be especially careful about There is this. 🔸 Deep bending of the waist 🔸 Maintaining a squat position for a long time 🔸 Lifting heavy objects using only your back strength 🔸 Excessive stretching by folding the waist in half ⚠️ If your arms and legs feel numb or the pain feels like electric shocks, it is not just pain. It may be a sign of neurological symptoms, so more attention is needed. do. In times like these, rather than overdoing exercise, Rest to maintain alignment and reduce pressure This first are you. ✔️ importance point Keep your back straight Remove unnecessary force No excessive exercise 3. Is walking good exercise even if I have a herniated disc? ✅ Depending on the situation, it can be either ‘helpful’ or ‘burdensome.’ Walking is generally a good exercise for your back, but An exception may be made in the acute disc stage. If the nerve is strongly compressed, walking for a long time will actually increase the pressure and make the pain and radiating pain worse. Because you can do it. ✔️ Try this 🔹 Short, frequent walks with your back straight 🔹 If you have trouble standing for a long time, lean against the back of a chair. 🔹 If you have to sit for a long time, use a cushion to keep your back aligned. In the end, what matters is not “how much exercise you do,” “Do it in a way that suits the current situation?” no see. 4. So… do I really need surgery? ✅ Most discs can be improved sufficiently with care and alignment restoration without surgery. When a herniated disc is seen on an MRI, many people worry and ask, “Do I need surgery now…?” But in reality, There are very limited cases where surgery is absolutely necessary. no see. ⚠️ When surgery should be considered If your arm/leg muscles become noticeably thinner or lose strength rapidly A situation where one's ankle is twisted and one is limping Sudden incontinence (emergency) But these cases are only a very small fraction of the total. Most of them Improvement is possible with just spinal alignment restoration and lifestyle modification. As the alignment is restored, the pressure concentrated on the disc is naturally distributed and the pain also begins to stabilize. ✔️ Key Message Understanding “why the disc is herniated” rather than whether or not to have surgery Changing your environment is key to long-term recovery. FAQ Q1. Can the disc heal on its own over time? A1. Some may recover naturally over time, but if the misalignment persists, repeated pressure on the same area may cause it to worsen again. So, along with recovery, Alignment and load flow management are required together. do. Q2. I have a herniated disc. Should I exercise or not? A2. It depends on the situation. During the acute phase, maintaining alignment is more important than excessive exercise. After the recovery period, light muscle strengthening and functional recovery exercises can be helpful in stages. The important thing is: Whether the exercise is suitable for my current condition no see. conclusion The key to disc treatment is ‘alignment’. Discs aren't something that suddenly appears one day. They're the first structures to wear out over time, thanks to accumulated lifestyle habits and alignment issues. Therefore, rather than focusing solely on the area where pain is present, Examining alignment, load, and movement flow together is the most important factor in solving the fundamental problem. ✔️ Key points to remember today Only a very small number of cases require surgery. Most people can improve sufficiently with alignment restoration and lifestyle correction. It's more important to "fix the environment" than to "blame the disk." Rather than being anxious, check your body condition now and manage it safely with expert advice. We support healthy movement and a comfortable daily life!

[Health Column] Spinal Stenosis: Pay Attention to the Signals Your Legs Send Before Your Back![12]
hello, Director Moon Ji-hwan of Rebom Oriental Medicine Hospital no see. When you walk, your calves and thighs easily become sore, If your legs start to feel numb after walking just a little bit and you have to rest, is it simply fatigue? Many people only think of back pain, Spinal stenosis often first presents itself in the legs. Today this disease Why does it occur, why does it repeat, and from what perspective should we look at it? cast Let's organize it to fit our daily experiences. Why does spinal stenosis occur? The cause of spinal stenosis is not the 'result' of nerve compression, The process of 'reducing the space' through which nerves pass This is the key. As I get older ✔️ The posterior joint is getting thicker and thicker ✔️ The ligaments become stiff ✔️ The alignment of the waist and pelvis may be disrupted. If this condition continues Weight is repeatedly placed on a specific area , In that cumulative process The space in the passage through which the nerve passes gradually decreases. At first, it may feel like simple leg fatigue and be easy to miss, but ⚠️ If you experience recurring discomfort while walking, it may be an early sign. “It used to be a no-brainer, but these days it’s hard to walk without taking frequent breaks.” 👉 Instead of simply dismissing recurring walking discomfort as ‘due to age,’ it is better to examine the cause. What are the symptoms of spinal stenosis? Spinal stenosis is Discomfort varies depending on posture This is a representative feature. ✔️ If you straighten your back, the discomfort will get worse (the space for the nerves to pass through becomes narrower) ✔️ A feeling of temporary relief when bending over (the space for the nerves to pass through is temporarily expanded) Because of this, many people Walking posture with the back unconsciously bent will be taken. However, this posture actually increases lumbar instability. ⚠️ spinal canal It can accelerate the progression of stenosis. 🔸 Symptoms that may appear together Reduced walking distance Feeling like my legs are losing strength sensory changes 👉 If symptoms change depending on posture, it may be a structural problem rather than simple muscle pain. Why does spinal stenosis recur or worsen? Because the 'reason' for the narrowing of the neural canal has not been resolved. Spinal stenosis is not simply a recurring “narrowing of the nerve canal.” ✔️ If the axis of the waist and pelvis remains collapsed, ✔️ The weight remains in the same position ✔️ Changes such as posterior joint hypertrophy and ligament hypertrophy accumulate again. (Hypertrophy, simply put, is more than the original Thickened and enlarged no see.) So many people Repeating the pattern of “getting better and then feeling uncomfortable again” It will be done. “I was fine for a while after the treatment, but at some point I had trouble walking again.” 👉 Rather than just alleviating symptoms, Why is it repeated? We need a perspective that looks at it together. Why should we look at spinal stenosis structurally? When treating spinal stenosis This is because we look at the ‘alignment flow’ of the waist-pelvis-hip joint, not just the waist. Spinal stenosis is 👉 It is the 'result' of a pinched nerve 👉 The process of accumulated change as alignment collapses no see. The treatment used at this time is ✔️ Alignment-based manual therapy ✔️ Spinal Alignment Restoration It doesn't just stop at relaxing your muscles, Considering the axes of the pelvis, lumbar spine, and hip joints together Direction to reduce lumbar shaking and instability It proceeds as follows. When the alignment is stable ✔️ Reduces the burden on the nerves when walking ✔️ An environment is created that can alleviate the inconvenience of walking in daily life. It is important to “not just look at the narrow space, but to correct why it has become narrow.” FAQ Q1. Does all spinal stenosis require surgery? A1. Not all cases are candidates for surgery. Many people can manage it with non-surgical treatment and lifestyle management. However, if there are changes in nerve function such as decreased leg strength, loss of sensation, or urinary difficulty, prompt treatment is required. Q2. Is walking exercise helpful? A2. While it may help in some situations, forcing yourself to walk while out of alignment can actually make the discomfort worse. It is important to adjust the amount and method of walking according to your individual condition. Q3. If the pain is reduced, does that mean the stenosis has improved? A3. It is difficult to determine recovery based on pain reduction alone. If the structural cause remains, symptoms may reappear. 📌Spinal stenosis Structural disorders that affect walking ability beyond back pain no see. So rather than simply reducing inconvenience, ✔️ Why the neural canal is narrow ✔️ What alignment changes have accumulated? It is important to look at the process together. Although not all of your current symptoms may be signs of illness, If you experience recurring discomfort while walking in your daily life It's a good idea to check it out once in a while. Through consultation with a specialist Management direction that suits your condition Please take a look.

[Health Column] Why does multiple threadlifting procedures make facelift surgery more difficult?[10]
hello, 3D plastic surgery at During surgery doing Dr. Jae-won Heo, a plastic surgeon no see. There is a phrase I hear most often in the clinic these days. “I’ve been getting facelifts once or twice a year, but now it seems to be having little effect.” And the question that comes up right after, “I’ve had facelifts several times. Is it possible to have a facelift?” Anyone who has had repeated thread lifting will have faced this concern at least once. today Why Facelift Surgery Can Be More Complicated After a Facelift cast, Cases confirmed in actual clinical settings and international academic journals Aesthetic Plastic Surgery (2025) Dr. Yordan P. Yordanov research paper I will explain it focusing on . 1. What type of lifting procedure is thread lifting? 🎯 What is a thread lift? It is a non-surgical lifting method that physically pulls the skin using threads under the skin. 🔹 Thread lifting is a procedure that involves inserting absorbable threads under the skin. A method of pulling up sagging areas no see. 🔹 Immediately after the procedure, you may feel your jawline or nasolabial folds lifted. immediate change It feels like an advantage. Choosing a facelift usually starts with the following reasons: “ Major surgery is a burden When you just want to do some light lifting” “ Whenever I feel my face sagging “If you choose to repeat the non-surgical method” 2. Why do changes occur in the internal tissues with repeated thread lifting? 🎯Silifting Even after the thread disappears, traces of the organization may remain. 🔸 Absorbable threads (PDO, PLLA, PCL, etc.) used in thread lifting dissolve over time. 🔸 But in this process Stimulates collagen production And that place fibrous tissue can be changed to 👉 Research has shown how these changes actually manifest themselves. Dr. Yordanov will be present from 2021 to 2023 History of receiving thread lifting Ten patients (average age 59 years) were studied. facial lifting surgery We conducted the experiment and directly observed the internal organizational status. in result, The following common changes were identified in all patients: ✔️ The area where the thread entered Become hardened ✔️ Skin, subcutaneous fat, and SMAS layers adhesion ✔️ Anatomically important layers reduced mobility ✔️ Increased surgical time : Difficulty in removing the skin layer and increased bleeding in other words, "Even if the truth melts, organizational change can remain." That is the key point. 3. How will these tissue changes affect facial contouring surgery? 🎯 The surgical procedure may become more difficult. 🔹 Facial contouring surgery involves exfoliating and reshaping the tissue beneath the skin. 🔹 But after the thread lifting In cases of fibrosis and adhesion , → Organizational separation becomes more difficult → Anatomical distinction may become difficult during surgery. ✨ A common point confirmed in research papers is, “ Silifting is Changes that leave a lasting impact on an organization are more lasting than temporary effects. .” “ thread lifting After Facial contouring It becomes much more anatomically complex .” in other words , repetitive thread lifting silver 'Later surgery' Making it difficult 'viewless evidence' second It means to leave behind . 4. So, if I had a facelift, would it be impossible to get a facelift? 🎯 No, it's not. But 'information sharing' is important. ✔️ Just because you've had facelifts multiple times Facial augmentation is not impossible. ✔️ I also perform mainly facial contouring surgeries, and I often meet patients who undergo surgery after thread lifting. It is very rare for someone to choose a facelift from the beginning without ever having tried a threadlift. Looking at actual surgical cases, one in three cases shows evidence of previous insertion of lifting threads. 📌 However, Information you must know before surgery There is. 🔸 Treatment period 🔸 Treatment area 🔸 Type of thread used 🔸 Number of treatments ⚠️ You need this information, → Avoid unexpected adhesions during surgery → See Safe surgical planning can be established. 5. How does thread lifting compare to other procedures? 🎯 Not all treatments have the same effects. 🔹 When you look at the clinical site, Collagen stimulants (such as Juvelook) Fat grafting/liposuction Certain volume control procedures (such as Accusculpt) This can actually make the surgery more complicated. ✨ Compared to this, Traces of lifting thread are relatively easy to clean up. It often falls into this category. What's important is not 'what kind of procedure was performed', but 'how accurately was it shared with the medical staff?' FAQ ❓ Q1. Why does the effect of thread lifting disappear quickly? A1. Since thread lifting does not fundamentally reposition the structure, the lifting effect may diminish over time. In some cases, the effects may be felt longer when combined with other procedures. Q2. I'm considering a face lift. Which would be better, thread lifting or face lifting? A2. It depends on the degree of sagging and the desired effect. Non-surgical methods may be considered for mild sagging, while surgical methods may be more appropriate for moderate to severe sagging. Q3. When can I return to my daily routine after a facial contouring procedure? I'm curious about the recovery period. A3. Initially, there will be swelling and tightness, but this will gradually stabilize over a period of time. Recovery rates may vary depending on individual condition. Conclusion 🧾 Although thread lifting is simple, Internal tissue changes may remain when repeated. This change was followed by facial contouring surgery. Factors that make it more delicate This could be it. ✔️ This does not mean that surgery is impossible. Sharing accurate treatment history is key no see. ✨ Rather than just choosing, Check the current status and past treatment history together do Consult with a specialist thoroughly The right direction for me It is important to find . 3D plastic surgery Director Heo Jae-won Graduated from Yonsei University College of Medicine Master of Medicine, Yonsei University Graduate School Severance Hospital plastic surgery specialist 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 Society of Craniofacial Plastic Surgery 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 Regular member of the Korean Society of Plastic and Reconstructive Surgeons, Liposuction Research Group Regular member of the Korean Society of Plastic and Reconstructive Surgeons' Laser Plastic Surgery Research Group Regular member of the Korean Society of Plastic and Reconstructive Surgeons' Botox, Filler, and Thread Lifting Research Group Director of Hyeon Ipsae Plastic Surgery Clinic 10 years of experience focusing on lifting 👉 Are you curious about the facial contouring surgery of Dr. Jae-Won Heo of 3D Plastic Surgery?

[Health Column] 3 Tips for Quickly Finishing Your Orthodontic Treatment[6]
Kim Hyun-soon ledger hello. Director Kim Hyeon-sun of Ceramic Dental Clinic no see. “Correction… Is there any way to finish it a little faster?”🤔 This is probably a concern that has crossed the mind of those who are undergoing orthodontic treatment. Correction is a process of waiting that must be endured for beautiful results, but Auxiliary items and habits that help in everyday life If you use it well, it can help shorten the period. Today, we will discuss how to reduce discomfort during orthodontic treatment and promote tooth movement. 3 Tips for Braces Let me introduce you to . 1. Gum “Does gum help with braces?” You may find this strange. However, if you chew correctly, it can play a positive role in orthodontic treatment. Chewing evenly with both molars can strengthen occlusal force and promote tooth movement. Blowing bubble gum strengthens the lip muscles and helps improve protruding teeth. ✔️ step, Sticky or sugary gum can increase the risk of cavities, sugar-free gum It is important to choose . 2. Ice cream The wire of the orthodontic device It is sensitive to temperature changes. Especially when the pain is severe in the early stages of correction ice cream or cold water It helps to relieve pain temporarily. ✔️ However, if you eat only cold foods frequently, Because the correction effect may be reduced It is recommended to use it occasionally only for pain control. 3. Oral muscle exercises Strictly speaking, it is a habit rather than an 'item', but it is something that must be practiced together because it has a significant impact on the speed and results of correction. 👉Exercises to strengthen lip muscles ✅ What you need: Cotton roll (dental cotton, can be purchased at pharmacies or supermarkets) ✅ Method: Place the cotton roll between your lips and teeth and repeat the lip-puckering motion. ✅ Time: Practice consistently for about 5 minutes a day This exercise strengthens the muscles around the mouth, which helps teeth move more smoothly and has a positive effect on shortening the treatment period. 4. Summary of 3 Best Braces Item Expected effect Things to note gum (sugarless) - Strengthening occlusal force by using both molars - Bubble gum strengthens the lip muscles and improves protruding teeth. - Sugar-containing gum is a risk for cavities. - Sticky gum can damage the device. ice cream - Relief of initial pain after correction - Wire tension relief - Frequent intake reduces corrective effect - Limited use for pain control Oral muscle exercises - Strengthening the lips and surrounding muscles - Facilitating tooth movement - It is effective only if you do it consistently for more than 5 minutes a day. - Hygiene management is required when using cotton rolls. 5. Conclusion Orthodontic treatment is not simply a process of aligning teeth. A long journey to a healthier, more beautiful smile no see. Waiting can feel tedious, but one small habit, one small item, can lead to faster and more positive results. Introduced today 3 great items If you practice this in your daily life, the remaining period of correction will be much more comfortable and meaningful. 😁 Director Kim Hyeon-sun Graduated from Seoul National University College of Dentistry Catholic University College of Medicine, Department of Orthodontics, Visiting Professor Orthodontic specialist (Ministry of Health and Welfare) Orthodontics and Accreditation (Korean Orthodontic Association) World Federation of Orthodontists (WFO) Fellowship Associate Professor of Outpatient Clinic, CHA University Hospital Director of Hyun Ceramic Dental Clinic -------------------------------- Click here to see more posts about Cashdoc Orthodontics! 🔗 [Health Column] Invisalign Braces: A Complete Guide | Benefits, Wear Time, and Cost of Transparent Braces 🔗 [Health Column] Why Does Braces Last Differently for Each Person?

Kim Hyun-soon ledger hello. Director Kim Hyeon-sun of Ceramic Dental Clinic no see. Recently, interest in transparent braces has increased significantly. At the center of it all is Invisalign There is a brand called . In the previous column too I briefly mentioned this when introducing the types of orthodontic devices. 👉[Health Column] Lingual Braces vs. Invisalign: How to Choose the 'Unnoticeable Braces'? Today, we'll delve deeper into Invisalign, exploring its advantages and limitations, as well as the importance of medical professionals. 1. What is Invisalign? Invisalign was developed by Align Technology in the United States. Representative transparent orthodontic device no see. Without the traditional wires or brackets, Device made of transparent plastic This method involves dividing the teeth into several stages (usually 20 to 100 stages) and wearing them sequentially to gradually move the teeth. ✔️ Invisalign production process - Scan your teeth with an intraoral digital scanner - Send scan data to US headquarters - Create 3D simulations based on tooth movement plans designed by medical staff - 3D printing of step-by-step transparent devices -Once the completed device arrives at the dentist, orthodontic treatment begins. The teeth move little by little as you wear the devices in a sequence that is meticulously planned for each step, and correction progresses. This whole process digital foundation In that it is made up of , Invisalign can be said to be an innovative orthodontic method that uses technology. 2. Advantages and limitations of Invisalign Invisalign silver 'Unobtrusive', 'Removable' has great advantages in two aspects. It is a treatment method that provides high satisfaction, especially to adults who are active in daily life or social activities. ✔️ Advantages - Almost invisible due to transparent device - The device is removable, making it easy to maintain oral hygiene. - Less gum irritation and relatively mild initial pain - Temporarily removable for important locations or filming However, Invisalign is not a panacea. The treatment effect may vary depending on the patient's cooperation and wearing habits, and there are limitations in cost and applicable cases. ✔️ Limits - Requires wearing for 20 to 22 hours a day - The cost is higher than general correction because the device is individually manufactured. - Results may vary significantly depending on treatment design capabilities. - May have limited application in complex teeth. ✔️ Comparison with bracket correction method item Invisalign (clear braces) Bracket correction Device type transparent plastic device Metal or ceramic brackets Aesthetics barely noticeable Looks good on the outside Whether detachable or not Possible (separate when eating or brushing teeth) Impossible (always attached) Hygiene management Easy to brush, less food stuck Needs maintenance, food can easily get stuck expense relatively high relatively inexpensive Wearing conditions Requires wearing for more than 20 hours a day Constant fixation, low cooperation 3. The key to Invisalign's success is its "medical team's design capabilities." Many people “Wouldn’t it be okay to just order a transparent device and put it in?” asks. But the most important part of Invisalign treatment is Accurate design and planning no see. Invisalign is not a simple ready-made product; it must be precisely designed to fit each patient's dental condition, specifying the direction, order, and amount of teeth movement. This process is all planned by the medical staff and the data is sent to Align headquarters for production. That is, even if you use devices of the same brand, The medical staff's diagnostic ability, orthodontic design experience, and ability to adjust during treatment Depending on the method, the degree of completion and treatment results may vary significantly. 4. Is Invisalign the right treatment for me? The Invisalign is clear A convenient and aesthetic correction method no see. However, it is not necessarily suitable for all patients. In cases where the arrangement of teeth is complex or cooperation is low, Rather, it may extend the treatment period or make it difficult to achieve the desired results. So, to determine if Invisalign is right for you and which treatment direction will be most effective, A thorough consultation with an experienced orthodontist is absolutely necessary. Please remember that the designer's fingertips are just as important as digital technology. Start your journey to healthy, beautiful teeth with a trusted medical team.😁 Director Kim Hyeon-sun Graduated from Seoul National University College of Dentistry Catholic University College of Medicine, Department of Orthodontics, Visiting Professor Orthodontic specialist (Ministry of Health and Welfare) Orthodontics and Accreditation (Korean Orthodontic Association) World Federation of Orthodontists (WFO) Fellowship Associate Professor of Outpatient Clinic, CHA University Hospital Director of Hyun Ceramic Dental Clinic -------------------------------- Click here to see more posts about Cashdoc Orthodontics! 🔗 [Health Column] Why Does Braces Last Differently for Each Person?
