The most common concern before double eyelid surgery: Buried Suture Method vs. Incisional Method—which method is right for me?[4]
hello! Director Kim So-young of View Plastic Surgery no see. ✨ When conducting consultations for double eyelid surgery, there is a common question that patients ask most frequently. as soon as " Doctor, should I have the buried suture method or the incision method? It's a question about... 💬 If you look at reviews on the internet or social media, you will find many comments saying that "the buried suture method is natural and recovery is fast," and "the incisional method creates a distinct line that lasts a long time." However, when you are actually facing your own surgery, it is only natural to feel even more confused and worried about which choice is right. 🤔 So today, I will explain the real differences between the buried suture method and the incisional method—which many of you lose sleep worrying about—and pinpoint the key points in an easy-to-understand way to help you figure out which method is the perfect fit for your eyes! 👇 1️⃣ My friend became beautiful with the buried suture method, so why do I have to have the incisional method? This is one of the stories I hear very often in the counseling room. There are people who express disappointment, asking, "My friend's results turned out incredibly natural with the buried suture method, so why do you recommend the incisional method for me?" 🥲 However, double eyelid surgery is The surgical method varies completely depending strictly on the individual's eye structure. 👁️ The thickness of the eyelid skin, the amount of fat, the degree of skin sagging, and the strength of the muscles that open the eyes—such diverse and complex factors must be considered comprehensively. Therefore, even with the same monolid eyes, some people achieve perfect results with the buried suture method alone, while others require the incisional method to obtain satisfactory results that do not come undone. 👍 Rather than blindly following others' reviews or surgical methods, it is most important to have your eye condition accurately diagnosed by a specialist. ✨ 2️⃣ Who is the perfect fit for the buried suture method for natural-looking eyes? A method that promotes natural and rapid recovery by tying through small holes without incising the skin! The buried suture method is a surgical technique that creates a tight double eyelid line using medical sutures by making tiny holes instead of directly incising the skin. 🧵 Since it doesn't involve a scalpel, it has the strong advantage of relatively less swelling and a noticeably shorter recovery period. 🚀 📌 I highly recommend the buried suture method to these people! ✅ Those with naturally thin eyelid skin ✅ For those who do not have much fat on their eyelids ✅ Those who do not have severe skin sagging ✅ For those who want natural lines that look like their own, without any signs of surgery ⚠️ Recently, with the remarkable advancement of medical technology, the retention of the buried suture method has also become much stronger compared to the past. However, please keep in mind that if you have particularly thick skin or a significant amount of fat that protrudes noticeably, there is a relatively higher possibility that the lines may gradually weaken or loosen over time. 💡 3️⃣ Is the incisional method always artificial and very obvious that I've had plastic surgery? How to neatly smooth out thick skin and fat to achieve sharp and defined lines! Many people get scared just by hearing the word "incision method." It is because of the worry, "What if I get an incision and it looks too artificial, like sausage eyes?" 😢 It is true that in the past, there was a strong perception that incisional surgery invariably resulted in thick, prominent lines. but Recently, it is possible to design naturally to suit an individual's overall eye condition and desired needs. 🎨 The incisional method is a technique that creates a double eyelid by making an incision in the skin and neatly trimming any unnecessary fat or sagging tissue inside the eyelid. 📌 The incisional method is much more advantageous for these people! ✅ For those with firm and thick eyelid skin ✅ For those with excess fat on their eyelids ✅ For those who want clearer and more distinct lines without a blurry look 4️⃣ How much difference is there in the realistic recovery period after surgery? The point that those balancing work or studies are most realistically curious about is the 'recovery period'. 🗓️ In terms of general outcomes, the buried suture method certainly results in less swelling and bruising compared to the incisional method, and allows for a faster return to daily life. However, recently, as surgical techniques and equipment for the incision method have advanced delicately, bleeding and damage are less compared to the past, significantly reducing the burden of recovery for patients. ✨ ⚠️ Wait a minute! The most important point: You should not hastily decide on a surgical method based solely on recovery speed, simply saying, "I have to go to work early, so I'll definitely go with the buried suture method." 🙅 This is because choosing the standard method best suited to your eye structure, even if it takes a few extra days for recovery, is the surest way to prevent revision surgery and maximize satisfaction in the long run. ❔ FAQ: Top 3 Most Frequently Asked Questions About Double Eyelid Surgery Q1. Won't surgery using the incisional method leave unsightly scars on the eyes? 😢 A1. This is the part you fear the most before surgery. In the early stages after surgery, there may be some redness along the incision line or it may look like a scar, but in most cases, it gradually fades and becomes natural as time passes and the skin heals. Best of all, when your eyes are open, the scar tucks right inside the crease of your double eyelid and is hidden, so it isn't as noticeable as you might think; you don't need to worry too much! 🥰 Q2. If I have the first surgery done with an incision, is it impossible to get revision surgery later? 😰 A2. Absolutely not! Just because the first surgery was performed using the incisional method does not mean that future revision surgery is fundamentally impossible. 🙅 However, eye revision surgery is more difficult than the first surgery because it requires precise calculation of much more complex and diverse factors, such as the condition of existing tissue and scar tissue. That is why To ensure a good start, it is best to determine the surgical method that is perfect for you through sufficient diagnosis and consultation from the beginning. 📌 Q3. If I am older, is the buried suture method unavailable and only the incisional method is possible? 👵 A3. No, that is also one of the common misconceptions! When deciding on a surgical method, the age figure itself is not an absolute criterion. What matters is not age, but the current degree of skin sagging and the condition of my eyelid muscles. 👁️ Even if you are in your 30s or 40s or older, if the skin around your eyes is not severely sagging and has elasticity, the buried suture method is often sufficient. Conversely, even if you are in your fresh 20s, if your eyelid skin is very thick and there is excessive fat, we may recommend the incisional method. ✨ 💡 Conclusion: Ultimately, the most perfect answer is 'the choice that suits my eyes' It cannot be concluded that either the buried suture method or the incisional method is absolutely superior or better. 🙅 Because the buried suture method has its own light and natural charm, while the incisional method has the distinct advantage of a clear and precise correction effect unique to itself. What is truly important is to avoid blindly chasing trendy eye shapes or hearsay about acquaintances or famous celebrities succeeding using a particular method. 🚫 You must find the perfect answer that fits exactly your unique eye structure, skin thickness, fat volume, and the balance of the image you ultimately desire. 🎯 ✨ Double eyelid surgery is not simply a procedure of drawing a single line on the eyelid; it is a delicate process that balances the entire eye shape to maximize one's impression and charm. . 👁️✨ There is no single correct answer to the dilemma of "Should I use the buried suture method or the incision method?" I hope you find skilled medical professionals who can thoroughly analyze your eye condition, undergo sufficient consultation and an accurate diagnosis, and choose the most suitable method to enhance the natural beauty of your eyes. 💕 View Plastic Surgery Clinic Director Kim So-young Master of Medicine, Ewha Womans University College of Medicine Doctor of Medicine, Sungkyunkwan University College of Medicine Graduate School Completed residency in Plastic Surgery at Samsung Seoul Hospital Lifetime member of the Korean Society of Plastic and Reconstructive Surgeons Regular member of the Korean Society of Aesthetic Plastic Surgery Regular member of the Anti-aging Research Group of the Korean Society of Plastic and Reconstructive Surgeons Regular member of the Oculoplastic Surgery Research Group of the Korean Society of Plastic and Reconstructive Surgeons Training in Plastic Surgery at Brigham and Women's Hospital, Harvard Medical School, Boston, USA
김소영 원장26.06.29Views 52Likes 3 From lifting procedures to incisional surgery, a comprehensive guide to the right lifting type for you and its side effects![3]
hello! Dr. Han Kyu-nam, Director of Samsao Plastic Surgery Clinic It is. ✨ Skin sagging naturally comes with aging—it’s upsetting every time you look in the mirror, isn't it, to just brush it off by saying, "Everyone does it"? 🥲 To ensure safe plastic surgery procedures and surgeries, today we have prepared the first session on 'Creating a Proper Plastic Surgery Culture,' which is essential from the perspective of consumers and customers! I am going to explain the lifting procedures that so many of you are curious about in great detail and with honesty. 👇 1️⃣ What is non-surgical lifting (EBD/thread lifting) and what are its characteristics? ✨ Everything about non-surgical lifting that simply tightens sagging tissue without a scalpel! 🔸 Energy-based device (EBD) lifting If facial sagging is not severe, devices such as radio frequency (Thermage) or ultrasound (Ulthera) are primarily used. 🔥 Just like meat shrinks when grilled, this method induces tightening by applying heat around the SMAS layer deep within the skin using different principles! Recently, a wide variety of equipment has been developed, including devices utilizing microwaves similar in principle to microwave ovens; these are collectively referred to as EBDs (Energy Based Devices). Depending on the device, the cost can be as high as surgery, making it less cost-effective, so you should be cautious. However, there is a definite advantage in that the recovery period is short, allowing you to manage the procedure discreetly while going about your daily life. 🔸 Thread Lifting It is a representative procedure with a low barrier to entry, in addition to EBD. It is a method that involves inserting threads of various shapes and materials into the skin and physically pulling them up. They are broadly divided into dissolvable and non-dissolvable threads. • Non-dissolving threads: They last a little longer, but the difference isn't huge. Above all, the psychological burden of knowing they remain in the body for a lifetime is significant. • Dissolvable threads (PDO): Currently the most commonly used material, it takes about 6 to 8 months to break down in the body. 📌 It has excellent biocompatibility, so you can rest assured that it rarely causes problems or inflammation on its own inside the body. "In that case, are there absolutely no side effects with non-surgical lifting?" ⚠️ Just because there is no incision does not mean the risk of side effects is 0%! • Cases of EBD side effects: You may have occasionally seen unfortunate news articles about patients suffering facial burns after undergoing the procedure under general anesthesia. Additionally, cases frequently occur where patients complain that their face looks more saggy because they have lost weight after the procedure, as the fat layer surrounding the targeted SMAS is affected. • Examples of thread lifting side effects: Since sagging tissue is only moved upward without being cut away, the lower skin may accumulate near the cheekbones, temporarily making the face appear wider. If the threads are too close to the skin, they may cause skin indentations (ding-up) or adhesions. 2️⃣ What is the principle behind incisional lifting (facelift/mini-facelift), and what are the precautions? ✨ The truth about incisional lifting and mini-lifting that effectively cut away sagging skin and pull it up! 🔸 Representative surgery, facelift It is literally a surgery where the skin is directly incised, pulled up, the excess flesh is completely cut away, and then sutured. Typically, a long incision is used that starts at the hairline near the temple, wraps around the front and back of the ear, and connects. There are exactly two key keywords for a facelift! ① SMAS layer: A major structure located inside the skin that must be pulled ② Retaining ligament: An obstruction that must be severed because it hinders tissue movement In other words, the principle is to completely loosen the retaining ligaments that hinder facial movement and then strongly pull the SMAS layer to move the sagging skin back to its original youthful position. With the recent advancement of plastic surgery anatomy, various surgical methods have emerged. Currently, the mainstream trend in facelift surgery is the 'Deep Plane Facelift,' which has many advantages as it significantly reduces the scope of subcutaneous dissection. 🔸 The Truth Behind Confusing Mini-Lifts (Mini-Facelifts) It is popular due to the perception that "an incision is made, but simply," but in reality, it is the area that patients find most confusing because there is no precise medical definition or consensus. • General method: A small incision is usually made inside the temple hairline, and the skin beneath is narrowly dissected (subcutaneous dissection). • ⚠️ Honest Comparison of Effects: While the effects may last slightly longer than thread lifting, they fall far short of the results of a traditional facelift. This is because mini-lifts generally cannot dissect below the SMAS layer and can only partially release the retaining ligaments. • ✔️ Important Checkpoint: Even if different hospitals use the same name, 'Mini Lifting,' the location of the incision and the extent of dissection vary completely. Generally, the longer the incision and the wider the dissection area, the more certain the results can be expected, so you must confirm the dissection area during the consultation. ❓ FAQ (Frequently Asked Questions) Q1. Why do so many people say they lost facial fat after receiving an energy-based device (EBD) lift? A1. A layer of fat is located around the SMAS layer, which is targeted by high-frequency or ultrasound energy. If this fatty area is affected by the energy during the procedure, its volume decreases, which may make it appear visually slimmer or more saggy. Q2. Can my cheekbones look bigger after a thread lift? A2. Yes, this is a phenomenon that can certainly occur. Thread lifting is a procedure that pulls and moves excess skin or soft tissue upward, rather than cutting it away. Therefore, if the volume that was sagging downwards is pushed toward the cheekbones, the face may momentarily appear wider. Q3. Is there a significant difference in effectiveness between a mini-lift and a facelift? A3. Yes, there is a significant difference. Mini-lifting involves a small incision and a narrow dissection range, so it cannot dissect below the SMAS layer and can only release a portion of the retaining ligaments. On the other hand, a full facelift utilizes extensive dissection to thoroughly release the retaining ligaments and fundamentally tighten the SMAS layer, resulting in a different depth of effect. 🎯 Conclusion Lifting is broadly divided into EBD lifting using equipment, thread lifting using threads, and incision lifting (facelift and mini-facelift) which involves cutting and removing the skin. Even non-incisional procedures can result in side effects such as burns, sunken cheeks, or enlarged cheekbones, and the scope of mini-lifting varies widely from hospital to hospital. Every patient has a different facial structure, and soft tissue conditions, such as the skin and SMAS layer, vary completely. Therefore, it is absolutely forbidden to blindly insist on a specific surgery simply because you heard, "This surgical method is the trend these days." Please be sure to find the best method for your face through an in-depth consultation with a board-certified plastic surgeon with extensive clinical experience. 🩺 Samsao Plastic Surgery Clinic Director Han Gyu-nam Graduated from Seoul National University College of Medicine Master's degree from Seoul National University College of Medicine Plastic Surgery Resident at Seoul National University Hospital 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 Association of Craniofacial Plastic Surgeons Regular member of the Korean Society of Plastic and Reconstructive Surgeons Korean Society of Plastic and Reconstructive Surgeons Anti-aging Research Group Korean Society of Plastic and Reconstructive Surgeons Breast Reconstruction Research Group Korean Society of Plastic and Reconstructive Surgeons Botox, Filler, and Thread Research Group Subcommittee Member of the Future Committee of the Korean Society of Plastic and Reconstructive Surgeons MINT global key doctor Elasticum Advisory Board MENTOR Young Leader 17 years of experience in lifting procedures Possesses numerous cases in the field of incisional lifting Current Chief Director of Samsao Plastic Surgery Clinic
한규남 원장26.06.24Views 95Likes 2 Breast Augmentation Satisfaction: Why Implant Size Isn't Everything![3]
Hello! This is Dr. Choi Soon-woo, Representative Director of View Plastic Surgery. 👋 When many people consider breast augmentation surgery, they often focus on concerns such as, "What type of implant should I use?", "How large should I make the size?", and "Where should the incision be made so that it is not noticeable?" 💡 Of course, these factors are very important, but the key to determining the true satisfaction felt long after surgery is actually hidden elsewhere! Then why on earth do some people get extremely satisfied with surgery using the exact same implants, while others are considering revision surgery? The results of breast augmentation surgery are not simply determined in a single moment on the day of the surgery. This is because patient satisfaction is determined by the entire process, from precise pre-operative examinations to regular post-operative care. Today, I will explain in simple terms why a systematic approach is so important! ✨ 1️⃣ The beginning of breast augmentation satisfaction, ' Collaborative system of specialist doctors Why is this necessary? It starts with a perfect fit for your body, safety, and the teamwork of our doctors! Breast augmentation is absolutely not a one-dimensional surgery that simply involves cutting the skin and popping an implant in. Everyone has a different shape of breastbone, and the size of the rib cage, skin thickness, and even the amount of mammary gland tissue is all different! Therefore, the expertise of medical staff capable of analyzing the patient's body from various angles and a collaborative system are essential. 🩺 plastic surgeon We clearly understand the aesthetic needs of the patient! ✨ We design the most harmonious lines and textures for your body shape and perform surgery with precision. 🩺 Radiology & Breast Surgery Specialist We analyze the internal chest structure with great accuracy before and after surgery! 🔍 It establishes an anatomical foundation to enable safe surgery by identifying potential tumors or diseases in advance. 🩺 Anesthesiology and Pain Medicine Specialist Since breast augmentation is performed under general anesthesia, this is really important! ⚠️ You must ensure that a board-certified anesthesiologist is stationed at the hospital to provide dedicated anesthesia care, from pre-operative evaluation to intraoperative monitoring and post-operative recovery. 💡 Wait a minute! As such, you must choose a hospital where specialists in plastic surgery, radiology, breast surgery, and anesthesiology and pain medicine are stationed in one place and collaborate closely to thoroughly prevent variables that may occur during surgery and expect perfect results that achieve both aesthetics and health. 2️⃣ Why before and after surgery ' breast examination Do I absolutely have to receive '? The absolute prerequisite for beautiful breasts is a 'healthy breast condition'! One aspect that many people surprisingly overlook when considering breast augmentation is 'breast examinations'. No matter how satisfactory the surgical results may look on the surface, if the procedure was performed without properly checking the internal condition of the breast, it can never be considered a successful surgery. 🩺 🔸 The Importance of Pre-operative Examinations You must check in advance through breast ultrasound or imaging to ensure there are no abnormalities within the breast, such as benign tumors (lumps) or microcalcifications. If implants are inserted without detecting any underlying conditions, treatment or regular follow-up care can become very difficult later on! ⚠️ 🔸 The Importance of Regular Checkups After Surgery Care does not end just because the surgery is over. It is essential for safety to undergo regular follow-up monitoring to check for any implant rupture, warning signs of capsular contracture (hardening of the breast), or the development of new conditions in the mammary gland tissue surrounding the implant. Therefore, if you are considering breast augmentation, it is advisable to check if the hospital systematically operates a lifetime check-up system, including not only pre-operative examinations but also post-operative check-ups. 3️⃣ Enhancing the perfection of breast surgery ' Premium after-sales service system What is Iran? The texture, shape, and depth of the scar depend on how it is managed after leaving the operating room. Breast augmentation doesn't end the moment you walk out of the operating room! This is because the skin-like texture, natural appearance, and depth of the scar can vary completely depending on how you receive aftercare. To prevent potential side effects during the recovery process and maximize satisfaction, a systematic after-treatment program is essential. ✨ ✔️ Scar Care To prevent keloids or deep scars from forming at the incision site, customized laser treatment and scar ointment care must be meticulously carried out at regular intervals. ✔️ Instructions on wearing shaping bras In the early stages after surgery, the implants must be properly positioned. To prevent the so-called "upper bulge" phenomenon, where the implants are pushed upward, patients must receive thorough instructions on how to wear a compression bra tailored to their individual body shape. ✔️ Utilizing Premium Recovery Equipment Capsulitis management to prevent 'capsular contracture,' known as the greatest enemy of breast augmentation, and promote blood circulation! Check to see if professional recovery systems are equipped, such as a hyperbaric oxygen chamber that supplies high-concentration oxygen to the body to promote cell regeneration and rapidly reduce swelling and pain! 💬 FAQ (Frequently Asked Questions) Q1. When can I start exercising after breast augmentation surgery? A1. Daily activities such as light walks can be resumed relatively quickly, but upper body exercises using chest muscles or high-intensity weight training may require restriction for a certain period. Since recovery speeds vary significantly by individual, it is safest to determine the timing of exercise in consultation with medical professionals during regular checkups. Q2. Which method is better, an axillary incision or an inframammary fold incision? A2. Both methods have clear advantages and disadvantages, so I cannot say which one is unconditionally better. The axillary incision has the advantage of not leaving a direct scar on the chest area, while the inframammary fold incision is characterized by easy visibility during surgery, allowing for more precise and delicate surgery. Most importantly, the key is to select the most suitable method by comprehensively considering the patient's original breast shape, skin condition, and other factors. 😊 Q3. Can I receive breast cancer screenings normally after breast augmentation surgery? A3. Yes, of course! You can receive regular checkups, such as breast ultrasounds and mammograms, without any problems even after breast augmentation. However, you must inform the medical staff in advance whether you have had breast implants inserted before the examination, and it can be much more helpful to be examined by medical professionals with extensive experience in breast implant screenings. 🩺 🔸 Conclusion: How to Make the Right Choice for Lifelong Satisfaction Breast augmentation surgery is not merely about increasing visible volume. The truly successful outcome is maintaining a beautiful shape and soft texture healthily for a lifetime, without worrying about side effects. ✨ ✅ A precise collaborative system among Plastic Surgery, Radiology, Breast Surgery, and Anesthesiology and Pain Medicine ✅ Thorough and systematic breast examinations covering before and after surgery ✅ Premium aftercare that prevents side effects (such as capsular contracture) and accelerates recovery Only when all these safety mechanisms and care programs mesh organically like gears can the safe and satisfying results you have dreamed of be realized. 🥰 ⚠️ A One-Line Guide to Careful Selection As this is an important lifelong choice for my precious body, rather than being swayed by simple low costs or temporary trends, ' Is it a systematic hospital that can take responsibility for the health and safety of my chest from start to finish? Please check ' first. Start safely, one step at a time, with a skilled professional for lifelong satisfaction!

최순우 원장26.06.23Views 73Likes 3 Top 5 Reasons Why People Regret Facial Contouring Surgery the Most[4]
Hello! View Plastic Surgery Director Yoon Chang-woon no see. Facial contouring surgery is a representative procedure that smooths out the facial shape and positively changes the overall impression. However, rather than the difficulty of the surgery itself, there is considerable regret and disappointment left when making a hasty decision without sufficient information or understanding. In fact, there are questions and vivid feedback that I frequently hear from patients in the consultation room, and today, based on these... Top 5 Reasons Why People Regret Facial Contouring Surgery the Most I would like to honestly address this. If you understand just this much before surgery, you can significantly reduce the chances of regret, so please pay attention! So, shall we take a look at the inside story, one by one, regarding what patients actually find most confusing and regrettable? 1️⃣ "My face didn't get as small as I thought." 🚨 Just because you go to extreme lengths doesn't mean you will automatically have a dramatically small head like a celebrity. When considering facial contouring surgery, people often have the expectation that "if I just have the surgery, I'll have a super small face like a celebrity, right?" However, our actual face size is not determined solely by the size of the bones. The volume and silhouette of the face Not only the bones, but also the skin thickness, fat layer, and even the amount of muscle This is because it is affected by complex factors. Therefore, rather than obsessing solely over removing a large amount of bone, you should plan the surgery by considering the overall harmony and balance of the face to avoid regrets. 2️⃣ "I didn't know the swelling would last this long" 🚨 Not only the surgical procedure itself, but also the subsequent recovery process is all part of the surgery. Many people are greatly alarmed by the swelling, which is more severe than expected, when they look in the mirror immediately after surgery. Generally, significant swelling subsides considerably and settles within a few weeks after surgery. but Invisible, fine residual swelling gradually subsides over several months. You must keep this in mind. Rather than hastily judging the swollen appearance immediately after surgery as the final result and becoming anxious, it is necessary to maintain a relaxed mindset and patiently observe the recovery process. 3️⃣ "I never even thought about sagging cheeks" 🚨 The critical keyword that must be checked together when considering facial contouring surgery is... sagging cheeks no see. As the volume of the bone decreases, the skin and soft tissues surrounding it shift. In this case, if the original skin lacked elasticity significantly or if there is an excessive amount of soft tissue compared to the amount excised, sagging may occur as the skin adapts to the new facial shape. Having facial contouring surgery does not necessarily mean that sagging cheeks will occur. Individual skin condition, age group, surgical scope There are clear differences in the patterns that appear depending on it. Therefore, before proceeding with surgery, it is necessary to predict your skin elasticity through an accurate preliminary diagnosis and design a surgical plan tailored to it. 4️⃣ "I chose the hospital based only on the price" 🚨 Facial contouring surgery is a very difficult procedure, so always 'safety' This must be the top priority standard. Sometimes, people hastily choose a hospital, attracted solely by cost benefits or low promotional prices. However, facial contouring is a highly complex medical field that requires the delicate handling of numerous facial bones, complex nerve lines, and microvessels. Rather than a simple cost comparison Extensive clinical experience of the attending medical staff, in-hospital safety systems, and emergency response systems You must carefully examine whether it is fully equipped. Since this is a surgery to change a facial shape you will have for a lifetime, the criterion is not cost Safety and professionalism Only by becoming this way will you avoid leaving any regrets. 5️⃣ "I should have been more careful when deciding on my first surgery" 🚨 🚨 The difficulty of facial contouring revision surgery increases incomparably compared to the first surgery. You decide to undergo revision surgery when asymmetry appears after the first surgery, when the expected improvement is not achieved, or conversely, when too much bone has been resected. Since revision surgery requires precisely correcting the bone structure that has already been deformed and the surrounding tissues that are firmly adhered, There are many surgical restrictions, and it is much more difficult. Therefore, to avoid the difficult process of revision surgery, undergo thorough and careful consultation from the beginning Proceed with high quality in a single, precise plan Doing so is more important than anything else. 🔸 FAQ (Frequently Asked Questions) We have compiled and summarized the top 3 most frequently asked questions about facial contouring surgery! Q1. Is it necessary to remove as much bone as possible for a good surgical outcome? A1. Absolutely not! If you proceed with excessive and unreasonable excision, not only will your appearance look awkward and unnatural, but it can also be a direct cause of skin sagging. The best result is A surgical plan that most ideally matches your original facial proportions It comes from. Q2. When can I return to work or school after facial contouring surgery? A2. Recovery speed varies from person to person, but generally A sufficient period of intensive rest of about 1 to 2 weeks It is a good idea to plan this in advance. However, aside from being able to go to work, please be aware that it will take a little longer for the final lines of your face to settle naturally. Q3. What safety conditions must be checked using a checklist when choosing a hospital? A3. We strongly recommend that you verify the following points comprehensively. ✅ Does the surgeon have extensive experience in facial contouring surgery? ✅ Is it equipped with precision diagnostic equipment systems such as 3D-CT? ✅ Is an anesthesiologist stationed at the hospital? ✅ Is a systematic emergency response system perfectly established? Conclusion 💡 The majority of regrets that follow facial contouring surgery are not due to problems with the surgery itself, but rather, It often stems from incorrect expectations or a lack of prior information. Rather than a one-dimensional approach of 'how much can be shaved off,' What change on my face would be the most natural and harmonious? You need a keen eye to look deeply into it. In addition, being able to undergo surgery with peace of mind Safe medical environment and precise diagnostic system Verifying whether this is a supporting location is an absolute necessity. Based on our award-winning track record in facial contouring surgery, View Plastic Surgery thoroughly analyzes each patient's unique facial structure to formulate customized surgical plans.

hello, Director Baek In-soo of Garnet Plastic Surgery no see. As I enter middle age, whenever I look in the mirror, I notice that the skin around my eyes and the tissues on my forehead are sagging, unlike before. If your eyelids droop heavily and your eyebrows drop, it is easy to look much more tired or older than your natural appearance. In such cases, many people simply assume it is an eyelid issue and only consider upper blepharoplasty. In reality, the underlying cause is often the forehead and eyebrows sagging together. Today, let's take a closer look at an anti-aging combination that transforms dull-looking eyes into a refreshing look and effectively addresses the root causes of aging! 💡 The root cause of eyelid drooping is not the eyelid itself, but, Descent of the forehead and eyebrows It may be. Upper eyelid surgery and forehead lift Synergy combination Expect a natural and perfect anti-aging effect! 🔹 Why are upper eyelid surgery and forehead lifts a perfect match for middle-aged women? It lifts sagging eyelids and drooping eyebrows simultaneously to address the root cause of aging. So why does a synergistic effect occur when the two surgeries are performed together? It is because the upper parts of our face are closely connected to each other. 1. Solving the root cause of eyelid sagging! 📌 For middle-aged women, it is not just the skin of the eyelids that stretches; often, the eyebrows themselves droop downwards. Upper eyelid surgery completely tightens sagging eyelid skin, but it cannot lift drooping eyebrows. If a forehead lift is performed in conjunction with this, the eyebrows are lifted to a normal position, and the entire area around the eyes becomes brighter. 2. Creating a natural eye shape without artificiality ✨ If upper eyelid surgery is performed aggressively without addressing the condition of the drooping eyebrows, excessive skin may be removed, resulting in a fierce or artificial appearance of the eyes. However, if you combine it with a forehead lift, the eyebrows and eyelids are harmoniously improved, making your impression less harsh, your eyes look naturally refreshed, and your field of vision widens. 3. Smooth out even deepening forehead wrinkles! ✔️ When our eyelids droop heavily, we unconsciously raise our forehead muscles to open our eyes wider. This compensatory mechanism causes deep wrinkles to form on the forehead. A forehead lift helps significantly improve forehead wrinkles by correcting this habit of opening the eyes. 4. Transformation from a gloomy and angry impression to a bright and youthful impression 🥰 When the eyelids and eyebrows are lifted simultaneously, the dark shadows on the face disappear. If you are someone who is often misunderstood by those around you as looking sleepy, tired, angry, or depressed, you can expect a noticeably bright and vibrant youthful appearance. 5. Reduced risk of re-surgery due to unsatisfactory results! 📉 If you perform surgery on only the eyes without accounting for eyebrow sagging, the eyelids may look heavy again after a short time, and satisfaction may drop significantly. In fact, there are many cases where patients consider revision surgery due to this, but combining a forehead lift from the beginning can significantly reduce the risk of such revision surgery. 🔹 Why do people feel that upper eyelid surgery alone is not enough? This is because aging around the eyes is not just a problem of the eyelids, but a complex phenomenon in which the forehead, eyebrows, and temples change together. Many people think, "My eyelids are just sagging, so I'll just need eye surgery, right?" However, insisting on a standalone surgery often leads to some regrets. ⚠️ Eyebrow drooping could be the real cause. Even if it appears as though the eyelids are sagging, in most cases, it is actually the eyebrows pushing down and covering the skin. Since the cause lies elsewhere, simply cutting off the eyelids will not resolve the fundamental problem. ⚠️ If you cut away too much skin, it may cause discomfort. If an excessive amount of eyelid skin is removed without calculating the amount of eyebrow sagging, you may suffer after surgery from difficulty closing your eyes, a feeling of tightness in the eye area, or an unnatural, closed-off appearance. ⚠️ Forehead wrinkles and restricted vision remain. Since upper eyelid surgery thoroughly improves the eyelids themselves, it has no effect on forehead wrinkles or the position of sagging eyebrows. If eyebrow sagging is severe, surgery on the eyes alone may not provide clear vision, leading to continued functional frustration. To achieve balance across the entire upper face, you must comprehensively consider the forehead, eyebrows, eyelids, and temples to get closer to the correct answer. 🔹 What changes occur when upper eyelid surgery and a forehead lift are performed together? You can simultaneously achieve functional improvements with an unobstructed view and aesthetic effects that balance the entire face. When the two surgeries are combined, the synergy effect is doubled. The specific expected benefits are as follows: Solve functional frustrations! 💡 🔹 Improved vision and reduced eye strain: As sagging skin is lifted, your field of vision becomes clear and unobstructed, and fatigue in the muscles around the eyes is significantly reduced. 🔹 Improvement in eye-opening strength: Your eyes open comfortably without having to force them open. 🔹 Reduced use of forehead muscles: It becomes much more comfortable because you don't have to squeeze your forehead to open your eyes. Aesthetic anti-aging effect! ✨ 🔹 Clear and lively eyes: The sleepy and tired impression changes clearly. 🔹 Natural eyebrow position: The eyebrows find their proper place without looking forced, making the impression softer. 🔹 Forehead wrinkle reduction and a youthful appearance: As the compensatory action of the forehead muscles decreases, deep forehead wrinkles are naturally alleviated, giving a brighter impression. 🔹 What are the side effects you should know before becoming beautiful? Since all plastic surgeries can cause side effects depending on the individual, you must check thoroughly beforehand and make a prudent decision. For safe and satisfactory results, it is advisable to familiarize yourself with potential symptoms in advance. division Possible side effects and symptoms Side effects of upper eyelid surgery Swelling, bruising, asymmetry, and scarring, which are typically expected after surgery, may occur. Additionally, as this is a surgery involving the eye, dry eye syndrome However, initial discomfort with eye closing may occur, and overcorrection or undercorrection may occur. Forehead lift side effects surgical site Temporary loss of sensation and you may experience a pulling sensation in the scalp. As with upper eyelid surgery, swelling, bruising, asymmetry, and scarring may occur, and hair loss may develop around the incision site, or very rarely, nerve damage There is a possibility. 🔹 If you have decided on parallel surgery? Please make sure to pay attention to this! Since facial structure and the rate of aging vary from person to person, a precise, customized plan is essential. Please be sure to check the following points for successful comprehensive anti-aging. 🔍 Analysis of individual aging status is necessary — Changes in the entire upper face, including the forehead, eyebrows, eyelids, and temples, must be analyzed in three dimensions. 📐 Eyebrow position measurement is essential. You must accurately measure how far down your eyebrows are to prevent an unnatural look. ✏️ Precise plan for the amount of skin excision — A sophisticated design must be included to prevent side effects caused by excessive resection. 👨⚕️ Choosing experienced medical staff is important — As two surgeries are performed simultaneously, the expertise of a specialist with extensive anatomical knowledge determines safety. 💡 I highly recommend this to people like this! ✔ For those whose vision is usually restricted and blurry due to drooping eyelids ✔ For those whose forehead wrinkles have become particularly deep due to the habit of raising their eyebrows ✔ For those whose eyebrows droop over their eyes, making their impression look stifled ✔ Those who have been diagnosed that upper eyelid surgery alone will not be sufficient to improve the effects of aging ✔ Middle-aged women who want natural, non-artificial anti-aging effects 🔹 Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ) Q1. Upper eyelid surgery alone would suffice; is a forehead lift absolutely necessary? A1. It is not absolutely necessary. However, if the underlying cause of eyelid drooping is 'eyebrow descent,' satisfaction may be lower if only upper eyelid surgery is performed, so performing a forehead lift together can lead to much more natural and complete results. Q2. If I have two surgeries at the same time, will the recovery period become extremely long? A2. Swelling and bruising may last a little longer in the initial stages compared to performing only one surgery. However, there is an advantage in being able to improve both the eyes and forehead in a single recovery process, rather than undergoing two separate recovery periods for each surgery. Q3. If I get a forehead lift, won't my eyes be lifted too high and make me look fierce? A3. By precisely considering your individual facial proportions and eyebrow position for proper correction, the result will not look unnaturally lifted as you are concerned. On the contrary, you can achieve a comfortable and natural lifting effect that looks just like your original self. 🔹 Conclusion 🔹 Key Points: The key to eye surgery for middle-aged women is not simply making the eyes bigger, but balancing the upper face, extending from the forehead to the eyebrows and eyelids. 🔹 Management Points: Depending on the individual's rate of aging and daily lifestyle habits after surgery, the effects can be maintained healthily for several years or more. 🔹 Necessity of specialist consultation: To accurately determine the true cause of your drooping eyelids, we strongly recommend that you first receive a precise diagnosis from a board-certified plastic surgeon with extensive clinical experience. I hope you find the real cause hidden behind your drooping eyes and regain your most beautiful and vibrant gaze! ✨ Garnet Plastic Surgery Clinic Director Baek In-soo - Graduated from Korea University College of Medicine - Graduated from Korea University Graduate School (Major in Plastic Surgery) - Plastic surgeon at the National Medical Center - (Former) Chief Director of Jewelry Plastic Surgery Clinic - 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 Contouring Research Group of the Korean Society of Plastic and Reconstructive Surgeons - Regular member of the Oculoplastic Surgery Research Group of the Korean Society of Plastic and Reconstructive Surgeons - Regular member of the Rhinoplasty Research Group of the Korean Society of Plastic and Reconstructive Surgeons View more expert columns by Director Baek In-soo of Garnet Plastic Surgery Clinic 🔗 [Health Column] Improving Eyelid Sagging in Middle Age: Key Points of Natural-Looking Upper Blepharoplasty 🔗 [Health Column] Why Under-Eye Surgery Changes Mid-Face Impression: A Summary of SOOF Lower Blepharoplasty Standards 🔗 [Health Column] Why You Should Consider Forehead Reduction and Forehead Lift Together 🔗 [Health Column] Under-eye Surgery for Those in Their 40s: Is Lower Blepharoplasty Always the Answer?

Lower eyelid fat repositioning or lower blepharoplasty, which is better suited for my eyes? 🟢 The purpose of the surgery varies depending on whether it focuses on fat relocation or includes skin and muscle improvement. . Many people often confuse the two surgeries. Under-eye fat repositioning is primarily redistributing fat Regional migration center On the other hand, Lower eyelid surgery silver Comprehensive improvement of not only fat but also sagging skin and muscle condition It is an integrated surgery. 💡 If the condition involves severe skin sagging due to aging beyond simple fat protrusion, choosing lower eyelid surgery rather than lower eyelid fat repositioning is clinically much more suitable. How long do swelling and bruising last after lower eyelid surgery? Temporary symptoms may appear immediately after surgery, and usually subside after about 1 to 2 weeks to the point where they do not interfere with daily life. . After any surgical procedure, the speed of recovery may vary depending on the individual's constitution or skin condition. The general standard recovery course follows the steps below. Key Recovery Timeline : 🔸 Week 1 This is the period immediately after surgery when swelling and bruising are most severe. 🔸 Week 2 As significant swelling subsides, light commuting to work or daily activities become fully possible. 🔸 1 month As residual swelling gradually subsides, the surrounding tissue regains its natural feel. 🔸 3~6 months The internal tissue is firmly fixed and eventually settles completely. 💡 If your parents work or have an important meeting coming up, it is recommended to coordinate the schedule after securing at least 1 to 2 weeks of buffer time.

Since lower eyelid surgery requires precise techniques, it is safer to check for potential symptoms in advance. Representative side effects to watch out for : ⚠️ Asymmetry and eyelid pulling ⚠️ Overcorrection or undercorrection ⚠️ Occurs micro-scars and dry eyes ⚠️ Rare eversion (the eyelid turns outward) 💡To prevent such side effects or complications such as ectropion or retraction, you must strictly verify whether the medical team is a specialist with sufficient know-how and extensive clinical experience regarding the surgery. What conditions should be considered more important than price or cost? 🟢 It is whether a 'personalized diagnosis' is provided, which closely analyzes skin sagging and muscle conditions that differ for each patient. . Lower eyelid surgery is not a trivial procedure that can be hastily decided upon based solely on low costs or promotional pricing benefits. This is because everyone has distinctly different innate physical conditions. Essential Checkpoints for Precise Diagnosis : 📌 Current degree of under-eye skin sagging 📌 The exact location and amount of protruding inner fat 📌 Thickness and weakening of the muscles under the eyes 📌 Overall skin elasticity and existing eye shape structure Since indiscriminately removing an excessive amount of tissue can lead to unnatural results, the key is the diagnostic ability to establish the most natural direction of improvement while preserving functional aspects. Specifically, who is lower eyelid surgery most recommended for? 🟢 We recommend this to those who are concerned about looking dull and older than their actual age due to signs of aging under their eyes. . Self-diagnosis checklist : ✔️ If you are often told you look tired because your under-eyes are always bulging ✔️ Cases where sagging soft tissue under the eyes makes you look much older than your actual age ✔️ Cases where the overall impression feels dull and dark due to shadows around the eyes ✔️ Cases where non-surgical lifting procedures were previously performed but the improvement was significantly insufficient ✔️ For those over middle age who want a very natural, non-artificial youthful face What is the detailed surgical recovery process and course by stage? After passing the initial stage of applying protective taping, the facial expression will gradually settle into a natural state by 6 months post-surgery. 🔹 [Stage 1] Immediately after surgery ~ Day 2 after surgery Carefully apply sutures and protective tape to the micro-incision site just below the eyelashes. Swelling that occurs immediately after surgery usually peaks on the 1st or 2nd day and tends to be severe. Light daily movements are immediately possible, and if you are concerned about the swollen appearance, you can sufficiently cover it by wearing a hat or glasses. 🔹 [Stage 2] Day 3 ~ Day 4 Post-Surgery From this point on, the swelling, which had peaked, begins to gradually and noticeably decrease. As you apply the prescribed eye ointment regularly, the area around the tape may appear slightly shiny or oily, but this is a perfectly normal part of the healing process, so you can rest assured. 🔹 [Stage 3] Day 6 ~ Day 7 Post-Surgery (Time for Suture Removal) Visit the hospital to safely remove the attached protective tape and fine stitches. Once the stitches are removed, the significant swelling and bruising around the eyes usually subside quickly. Light makeup becomes possible, drastically reducing the physical and psychological burden of returning to daily life, such as going out or going to work. 🔹 [Stage 4] 2 ~ 3 months after surgery (Long-term recovery) The reddish tint of the micro-scar incised along the eyelash line gradually fades. The skin texture around the eyes recovers smoothly and naturally, transforming into a stable state where scars are barely noticeable. 🔹 [Stage 5] 6 months post-surgery (Final settlement) Even when speaking or smiling broadly, an extremely natural expression is maintained without any awkwardness. A youthful, relaxed, and vibrant impression of middle age is achieved to the point where those around you won't even notice. 📌 Great tips to shorten your recovery time! Professional services conducted at the hospital Swelling relief injection me LED Swelling Management Systematically combining the same customized recovery program can be of great help in accelerating the speed of recovery. FAQ Q1. When does my face look natural after lower eyelid surgery? A1. The most prominent swelling and bruising after surgery usually subside significantly within about 1 to 2 weeks as you resume your daily activities. Afterwards, minor residual swelling gradually subsides over several months, and the area usually settles into a noticeably natural look between one and three months after surgery. Q2. Since it is a surgery involving an incision, I am worried that a severe scar will remain on the surface. The incision for lower blepharoplasty is precisely made along a line closely located just below the eyelashes, which is not easily visible due to the eye's structure. Therefore, as time passes and the wound heals, it becomes difficult to distinguish easily with the naked eye. Although there are individual differences, generally, the scar fades rapidly starting 2 to 3 months after surgery. Q3. My parents are afraid that my facial expression might become stiff or look artificial and awkward after the surgery. To avoid an artificial appearance, the surgery must be performed with precision, thoroughly considering the complex muscle distribution and the condition of the supporting tissues around the eyes. If the surgery is performed correctly according to the anatomical structure, you can maintain a comfortable and soft impression without any awkwardness even when smiling broadly after 6 months, so it is important to make a decision after consulting thoroughly with a medical team with skilled expertise. 📌 Key Summary Lower eyelid surgery, known as the ultimate cosmetic surgery to show filial piety to middle-aged parents, A safe solution that restores your naturally bright and defined face by harmoniously improving sagging skin and bulging fat, the main culprits of under-eye aging. no see. To maintain highly satisfactory results for a long time, do not be swayed solely by low price benefits. Please keep in mind that a precise, customized diagnosis evaluating the patient's skin elasticity, eye structure, and muscle condition from various angles must be performed first. ✨ Key Summary Points ✔️ Major swelling and bruising usually subside within 1 to 2 weeks, and light makeup is possible after the stitches are removed in the first week. ✔️ To prevent side effects such as eyelid eversion and to maintain a natural smile, you must undergo a one-on-one consultation with a verified specialist. If you wish to give your parents the gift of youth and confidence that brings them happiness every time they look in the mirror, I highly recommend visiting a medical institution equipped with a thorough, systematic aftercare program and accompanying them step-by-step, starting from the consultation.

hello. Director Kim Jeong-min of View Plastic Surgery Clinic no see. Every time I look in the mirror Face line that isn't what it used to be So, even though I wondered, "Is it because I haven't had enough sleep?", before I knew it, Deepened nasolabial folds and a sagging jawline You must have been very worried because you could clearly feel this, right? That very time when deciding on surgery right away feels burdensome, yet you worry that doing nothing will cause it to sag even more! My facial condition is simple Procedure possible steps Whether, or not surgery Is this a more effective step? I will give you a guide right now on how to clearly distinguish them. 1. Is my skin still at a stage where treatments are sufficient? ? 🌱 If you feel your skin elasticity has slightly decreased and is sagging a little, laser or thread lifting is the answer! If you have these symptoms Procedure Consider this first: ✅ Only when smiling When nasolabial folds are slightly prominent ✅ The jawline weakly In the case of the initial stage of collapse ✅ of the entire face Voluminous It is still in a good state. At this stage, applying physical tension with thread lifting or boosting elasticity with radiofrequency or ultrasound lasers alone is sufficient Natural improvement This is possible. Above all, prepare for surgery The burden of recovery is low. That is a huge advantage! 2. Is it time to consider surgery on my skin? ? 🌱 If the effects of the procedure feel too short-lived or if there is a lot of excess skin when pulled by hand, it falls into the realm of surgery. For people like this Facelift surgery I recommend: ✅ Between the forehead and the space between the eyebrows Severe wrinkles In the case of drooping eyelids ✅ For wrinkles and sagging skin all over the face all at once If you want to improve ✅ For those who want a 확실한 (definite) lifting effect without worrying about scars or nerve damage It is not simply that the outer skin has lost elasticity, Possibility that the deep fascial layer (SMAS) has already started to sag It is high. In this case, rather than a procedure that only tightens the surface Resolves the fundamental sagging The surgery performed is much more effective. 3. How is a facelift different from alternative procedures? 🌱 The key is to directly correct the deep structure (SMAS layer) that causes aging. Let me highlight the key points of a facelift: 📌 SMAS (fascial layer) dissection When the SMAS layer, a thin membrane surrounding muscles, loosens due to aging, the skin sags along with it. Through surgery, this layer is directly separated and tightened, and the excess is removed to produce a definite effect. 📌 No need to worry about scars The incision line is meticulously planned along the area around the ear to ensure that the scar is not noticeable after recovery. The more skilled the medical staff, the more cleverly they hide it along the hairline or behind the ears. Medical staff proficiency That is really important! 4. Essential points to check for a successful facelift ? 🌱Check for anatomical understanding and aftercare systems rather than simply low costs. Make sure to check these 3 things for satisfactory results: skilled medical staff The face is a complex area where numerous nerves and blood vessels pass through. Only medical professionals with extensive clinical experience can perform precise surgery without nerve damage. 1:1 Custom Design Everyone has different skin thickness and bone structure. The extent and angle of the peeling must be finely adjusted to suit the individual's condition to avoid 'pointed ears' or awkward facial expressions. Systematic follow-up care In addition to having an anesthesiologist on staff, having well-equipped scar care and swelling management programs is essential for a faster return to daily life. 💡 Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ) Q1. Will there be significant scarring after a facelift? ? A1. The incision is usually made along the line around the ear, and skilled medical professionals hide the scar along the hairline or behind the ear so that it is not easily visible. It will be relatively inconspicuous once it recovers over time, so you don't need to worry too much. Q2. I am still in my 40s; would it be okay for me to have surgery already? ? A2. The criterion is the 'degree of skin and fascia sagging' rather than age. If the effects of the procedure last only about a month, or if there is a lot of excess skin when you pull it taut, surgery may be a more suitable option at this stage. Please consult with a specialist. 💬Conclusion You cannot turn back time, but you can change the speed of aging. The dilemma between a lifting procedure and a facelift is likely due to the desire to return to "the youngest and most vibrant version of myself." Rather than being swayed by others' reviews or cheap events My current skin condition and the depth of sagging It is wise to find the most suitable method for it. Instead of worrying while looking in the mirror alone, try thoroughly checking the condition of your fascia with a professional. That small step will become the most valuable investment that determines the next 10 years.

Have you been unable to lose weight or exercise? Make your decision after understanding abdominal liposuction properly. There are many of you who have tried dieting, personal training, and all sorts of other methods to lose weight, but find that abdominal fat simply won't go away, right? So, you have probably seriously considered liposuction at least once. Or, there may be some of you who have already undergone abdominal liposuction but are upset because the results are different from what you expected. I hear so many stories from people who say they can no longer even wear swimsuits because of bumpy skin, uneven sides, and even sunken areas. In this article, I will honestly explain everything about abdominal liposuction, including its principles, effects, surgical process, side effects, recovery period, costs, and even revision surgery. 1. What is abdominal liposuction? Abdominal liposuction is located beneath the skin subcutaneous fat layer It is a surgery that physically removes it through a thin tube called a cannula. Many people think, "Doesn't the fat just come out when a tube is inserted?" but the actual surgery is completely different. After inserting a cannula 3 to 5 mm in diameter through a small incision, countless reciprocating motions Repeat this process to extract fat little by little. To put it simply, it is like using a straw to suck out the middle layer of tofu little by little to make it as thin as possible. Because the fat does not flow out smoothly but comes out in very hard, small amounts, it is a high-intensity surgery that requires significant physical strength and skill from the surgeon. Important point: Visceral fat does not go away. What can be removed by abdominal liposuction subcutaneous fat That is all. Located deep inside the intestines visceral fat It cannot be removed surgically. It can be managed solely through diet and exercise. Therefore, it is important to accurately identify your fat type before surgery. 2. Effects of Abdominal Liposuction — How Much of a Change Does It Actually Make? The biggest effect of abdominal liposuction is Directly and physically removes localized subcutaneous fat that absolutely cannot be lost through diet or exercise. The point is that it is possible. Expected effects Reduction in waist circumference and improvement in body lines Concentrated fat removal in specific areas such as the flanks, around the navel, and upper abdomen Changes in the overall body line through improved waist-to-abdomen ratio Contouring effect that slightly reveals abdominal lines (when advanced technology is applied) You must also be aware of the limitations. Visceral fat and cellulite cannot be removed If weight is not managed after surgery, visceral fat may increase, causing the abdomen to protrude again. If skin elasticity is very low, skin sagging may occur after fat removal. Abdominal liposuction is Body shape correction, not obesity treatment surgery You must understand this. 3. Abdominal Liposuction Procedure — A Much More Precise Surgery Than You Think Abdominal liposuction is not simply a surgery to "remove a lot" of fat. Evenly, safely, beautifully : It is a very difficult surgery that requires achieving these three things simultaneously. step detail Key Points ① Design and Marking Designing the entire abdominal line while standing Determine 50% of the result ② Anesthesia General or sedation anesthesia The method varies depending on the scope. ③ Solution injection Minimize bleeding with tumescent solution Improved fat removal efficiency ④ Liposuction Reciprocating suction after cannula insertion Preserving the 1cm skin layer is key. ⑤ Wrap-up Compression dressing + wearing a compression garment Essential for recovery 🎯 Most difficult areas: Around the navel & upper abdomen Due to the umbilical ligament and surrounding fibrous tissue Suctioning this area evenly This is very tricky. If not treated properly, fat may remain bulging around the navel or asymmetry may develop in the upper and lower abdomen. 4. 5 Types of Side Effects & Failures Cases of patients seeking revision surgery are broadly divided into five types. # Types of failure cause result 1 Did not lose enough fat Conservative surgery (risk avoidance) "Lose weight with a diet" guide 2 Skin depressions/unevenness Excessive inhalation, skin layer damage There are also cases where wearing swimwear is not allowed. 3 Residual fat in specific areas Lack of navel and side techniques Partial convexity 4 The lines aren't pretty Lack of understanding of body line design I lost weight but I'm not pretty 5 Recurrence after surgery Increase in visceral fat and lack of management Can accompany cellulite ⚠️ Case No. 2 (depression) has the highest difficulty level for revision surgery. This is why choosing the right hospital for the initial surgery is so important. 5. Recovery Period — Step-by-Step Summary period recovery status caution Day of surgery ~ 3 days Severe swelling and bruising Compression garment essential, rest required 1 week stitch removal Light daily life possible 2~3 weeks 50% reduction in swelling Return to office work possible 1~2 months The appearance is gradually improving You can start light exercise 3~6 months Check final results The swelling has completely subsided 💡 Pro Tip: Wearing a compression garment is not an option, it is a necessity. It plays a crucial role in reducing swelling, adhering to the skin, and fixing the lines. Please wear it carefully according to the surgeon's instructions. 6. Price — Why does it vary from hospital to hospital? Generally 3 million won to 7 million won or more The deviation is large up to this point. Price Determinants Low High Surgical scope only the lower abdomen Entire abdomen + sides Anesthesia method sleep anesthesia general anesthesia equipment General inhalation VASER laser surgeon Short experience Experienced dedicated doctor ⚠️ If you are tempted by a low price and undergo surgery, it will end up costing you much more in both time and money, potentially leading to revision surgery. Since revision surgery is more difficult and expensive than the initial surgery, choosing a reputable hospital from the start is ultimately cheaper. 7. Revision Surgery — Timing, Method, and Precautions Revision abdominal liposuction is more than the first surgery The difficulty level is significantly high. The area that has undergone surgery once is internal fibrous tissue and adhesions This is because it causes the processing to become much more complicated. 📅 Timing for Revision Surgery At least 3 months, mostly after 6 months We recommend making a decision. An accurate assessment of the condition is possible only after the swelling has completely subsided and the tissue has stabilized. case Revision surgery method Difficulty In cases where less fat was lost Additional suction after Vaser laser adhesion dissection middle Occurrence of depressions or sinkholes Autologous fat grafting + adhesion dissection best Asymmetry and imbalance Precise re-liposuction by area + line correction Middle to high school weight regain Maximum suction after scar tissue removal middle 💡 In cases of extreme depression, fat grafting into the muscle layer and fat-derived stem cell transplantation are also performed in combination. 8. Things You Must Check When Choosing a Hospital The most important thing in abdominal liposuction is Who is performing the surgery? no see. Please refer to the checklist below and make your choice carefully. ✅ Does the surgery involve a surgeon specializing in abdominal liposuction? ✅ Is the doctor experienced in revision surgery? ✅ Do they honestly explain the side effects and limitations during the consultation? ✅ Do you possess auxiliary equipment such as Vaser? ✅ Do they offer sufficient consultation first rather than unconditional discounts or events? ✅ Do they show sufficient before and after photos of the surgery? Since this is a decision where you entrust your body entirely to the operating table, I strongly recommend that you consult with several hospitals thoroughly before making a decision. Whether it is the first surgery or a revision, the surgeon's experience and skill determine the entire outcome of abdominal liposuction. Beautiful lines are created not by removing a lot of fat, but through a process of uniform and precise sculpting. I hope this article helps you make the right choice, even just a little bit.

However, this surgery has no clear Criteria for Eligibility There is. Determining whether I qualify is the most important first step before surgery. The key point is not whether a surgery is good or bad, but that the target patients are different. Source: Gemini Key judgment criterion: Presence or absence of tear trough deformation The first thing specialists check is tear trough deformation It is presence or absence. Tear trough deformation is a phenomenon where the area under the eye becomes sunken, shadowed, or appears like dark circles, and it occurs when accompanied by sagging of soft tissues. tear trough deformation Suitable surgical method Core Objective ✅ Available Under-eye fat repositioning surgery Orbital fat is removed and inserted into the tear trough area. ❌ None Fat removal + diaphragm strengthening Tightening the septum after removing protruding fat In other words, lower eyelid fat repositioning surgery is People with tear trough deformities It is a suitable surgery for. Just because fat is protruding does not mean that everyone is eligible for repositioning surgery. When some elasticity remains in the soft tissue Since it is effective, age and skin condition are also important factors to consider. 💡 This applies to people like this If the area under your eyes is bulging and the area immediately below it appears sunken or has shadows resembling dark circles, you may suspect a tear trough deformation. An accurate diagnosis through consultation with a specialist comes first. 2. Under-eye Fat Repositioning Surgery Method — How is it performed? Under-eye fat repositioning surgery is performed without incising the visible skin. The specialist flips the eyeball over conjunctiva (inner mucous membrane of the eye) It is accessed through [the device], and dissection (tissue separation) is performed along a plane with as few blood vessels as possible. Surgery flow by stage STEP 01 — Access through the conjunctiva (no outer skin incision) STEP 02 — Proceed with dissection on a flat plane with few blood vessels (minimize bleeding) STEP 03 — Remove orbital fat and insert it into the tear trough deformation area STEP 04 — Suturing soft tissue and fat to fix STEP 05 — Apply compression dressing (fix to re-adher to the detachment plane) ✅ There is almost no scar because there is no external incision. Because it is accessed through the conjunctiva, there are no visible scars or stitches on the outside after surgery. This is one of the biggest advantages of under-eye fat repositioning surgery. 3. Under-eye Fat Repositioning Cost — Criteria for a Reasonable Choice The cost of lower eyelid fat repositioning surgery varies significantly depending on the hospital, the surgeon's experience, the region, and whether additional procedures are performed. Non-covered items Since health insurance does not apply, a direct comparison is necessary. Criteria more important than cost A low cost does not necessarily mean it is a good choice, and conversely, an expensive place is not necessarily the best option. Please evaluate the hospital based on the criteria below. ✅ Hospitals that first diagnose tear trough deformation — A place that suggests the appropriate surgery rather than unconditionally recommending repositioning ✅ Check if the doctor is a board-certified plastic surgeon Since this is a surgery involving orbital fat, the specialist's experience is important. ✅ Post-operative Care and After-Sales Service Policy — Check the response method in advance in case of side effects ⚠️ Do not make a decision based solely on event or discount prices — Surgery around the eyes should be performed with particular caution. 💡 Make sure to ask these things before the consultation Ask yourself, "Why is fat redistribution surgery suitable for me?" A hospital that explains clear evidence (such as the presence or absence of tear trough deformation) is a trustworthy place. 4. Under-eye fat repositioning recovery period — Is it suitable for office workers? Recovery from lower eyelid fat repositioning surgery is relatively fast compared to other facial surgeries. Since the approach is made through the conjunctiva without an external incision, surgery can be performed without large bruises or external wounds. Recovery phase Expected timing Condition and Precautions Compression dressing Immediately after surgery ~ within 1 week Tape application status for re-adhesion of the detached site Remove tape 3~4 days later Remove outer skin tape, no special treatment thereafter. Return to daily life 1~2 weeks later Work life, light outings possible Complete recovery About 1 month Fat lumps soften, exercise can be resumed If you are an office worker? If you are comfortable with the tape on your face, you can return to work within a few days after the surgery. Since there is no external incision, stitch removal is not necessary, and in most cases, large bruising or swelling is not severe. However, blood pressure may rise Refrain from strenuous exercise or drinking for about one month. It is recommended to do so. 📌 Please keep this in mind while recovering A light walk helps with blood circulation. Exercise, jogging, and lifting heavy objects can resume after one month. It is best to refrain from drinking and smoking, as they slow down recovery. 5. Side Effects of Under-Eye Fat Repositioning — What You Honestly Need to Know You must be fully aware of the side effects to reduce unnecessary anxiety and quickly recognize real danger signals. Temporary phenomenon — It will naturally improve over time. ✅ sunken eyes immediately after surgery — A normal process that occurs as originally protruding fat moves. It will return to a flat state over time. ✅ Fat fixation site lumps — A temporary phenomenon caused by suturing soft tissue and fat. It softens after about one month. ✅ Conjunctival edema and temporary vision loss — It occurs due to swelling caused by surgery and usually disappears naturally during the recovery process. ✅ Temporary diplopia (seeing double) — It can be caused by irritation of the muscles around the eyes and recovers over time. ⚠️ Side effects to watch out for — Contact a hospital immediately in these cases Retrobulbar Hematoma This is the most serious side effect of lower eyelid fat repositioning surgery. It is a situation where blood vessels within the orbital fat are irritated, causing bleeding, and this blood accumulates behind the eyeball, increasing intraocular pressure. Although the incidence is extremely low, if after surgery Sudden pain, decreased vision, sensation of bulging eyes If you feel this, you must contact the surgery hospital without delay, whether it is night or dawn. Prompt treatment is crucial for protecting eyesight. ❗ Sagging due to excessive fat removal — Occurs when excessive fat is removed in cases of low fat content. Correction may require additional procedures. ❗ When the causes of dark circles differ — If fat redistribution is performed when the cause is vascular or pigmented dark circles, it may be ineffective or result in an unnatural outcome. 💡 How to reduce concerns about side effects Accurate diagnosis before surgery (checking for tear trough deformation), selection of a skilled plastic surgeon, and adherence to post-operative instructions—these three factors significantly reduce the risk of side effects. 6. Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ) Q. What is the difference between lower eyelid fat repositioning surgery and fat removal surgery? The key difference lies in the presence or absence of tear trough deformation. If deformation is present, fat repositioning surgery—which involves extracting fat and filling the sunken area—is appropriate; however, if there is no deformation and the fat has simply protruded, the correct approach involves removing a portion of the fat and reinforcing the septum. Confusing these two surgeries can result in ineffective outcomes or unnatural results. Q. Does under-eye fat repositioning have permanent effects? If the surgery is performed successfully while the soft tissue is still elastic, the results can be maintained until the time when soft tissue elasticity decreases and lower eyelid surgery becomes necessary. However, since the results may vary with aging, it is difficult to consider it permanent. Q. Is it normal for the area under the eyes to look sunken after surgery? Yes, for the most part, this is a normal recovery process. As the originally protruding fat moves, that area temporarily appears sunken. In most cases, it flattens out over time, so you don't need to worry too much. However, if excessive fat has been removed, additional treatment may be required. Q. When can I start exercising after surgery? Light walks help with recovery. However, it is recommended to refrain from strenuous exercise (such as weight training, jogging, or swimming) that can raise blood pressure for about one month after surgery. Q. Is revision surgery possible? If you are considering revision surgery, I strongly recommend that you consult thoroughly with a skilled plastic surgeon. The method may vary depending on the tissue condition after the initial surgery. This content is intended for informational purposes only and is not a medical advertisement.

hello, 3D Plastic Surgery Researching surgeries to become younger at Director Heo Jae-won, a board-certified plastic surgeon no see. There is a question that people concerned about a double chin frequently ask in the consultation room. "Isn't liposuction all that's needed?" Can't this be solved with contouring injections? But in reality Cases where the cause of a double chin is not just simple fat There are many. Under the chin, not only fat Muscles, salivary glands, skin structures Because the back also has an impact The results may vary depending on which method is correct. So today Face types for which chin lift surgery is particularly effective Centered on I will look into it. 1. Why is a chin lift different from simple fat removal? ? 🎯 A double chin is influenced by various structures, not just fat. . Many people [do not know] the cause of a double chin Think of it as just fat accumulation do. Therefore, some expect that it can be resolved with liposuction or contouring injections alone. However, the following structures are located beneath the jaw. 🔸 Fat 🔸 platysma (neck muscle) 🔸 submandibular gland (salivary gland) 🔸 Skin and fascia structure These structures This is because they are intricately intertwined to form a double chin shape. to There are cases where removing only fat does not result in the expected body line. So the method that emerged is Chin lift surgery no see. This surgery is ✔️ Small incision under the chin ✔️ Does not peel off the skin significantly ✔️ Organize the internal structure It is characterized by the way it proceeds. 💡 example Cases where there is not much fat but a double chin is visible When the boundary between the jaw and neck is blurred in the side profile In this situation, simple fat removal alone may not be sufficient. 2. Which face types respond best to a chin lift?🧐 Based on the analysis of the paper, in the following cases The tendency for the effect to appear more significant There is. 🔸 ① Young woman with an obtuse neck line The face is slender, but When a double chin is prominent in the side profile no see. Representative characteristics small chin structure When the submandibular gland is relatively large When platysma muscle tension is low In this case, it is not because there is a lot of fat. A situation that looks like a double chin due to structural reasons It could be. In such cases A method of organizing internal structures without skin incision this It might be more suitable. 🔸 ② Middle-aged men with dull necklines Men generally ✔️ I tend to have thick skin ✔️ Relatively good elasticity It has the characteristic of... so Cases where the skin naturally improves simply by organizing the deep layer structure There is. especially jawline jaw and neck boundary As this part becomes clearer You may feel a change in impression. In the paper Cases where facial appearance can be improved with a neck-only lift up to the age of 50 He explains that there is. 🔸 ③ Cases where only the neck area is unsatisfactory after a facelift Among those who have undergone a facelift, I am satisfied with the face, but Cases where only the double chin remains There is also. or at the time of surgery I skipped the neck surgery, and looking back now, I regret it. There are also cases like this. In such cases Submental lift serves as a complement to existing surgery You can do. However, it is not suitable for all cases. In the following situations, a different method may be needed. ⚠️ In the case of advanced age ⚠️ When skin elasticity has significantly decreased ⚠️ In cases of severe skin sagging In such cases Traditional neck lift including skin removal this They can be considered together. FAQ ❓ Q1. Does a chin lift leave a large scar? A1. Since this method uses a small incision under the chin, the scar is relatively inconspicuous. However, there may be differences depending on individual skin condition. Q2. Does everyone with a double chin need a chin lift? A2. That is not the case. Different methods may be suitable depending on whether the cause of the double chin is fat or a structural issue. Q3. Are there cases where the issue can be resolved with liposuction alone? A3.

hello. Dr. Hyun-woo Cho, Chief Director of 3D Plastic Surgery no see. Because it makes the face look long Have you ever considered double jaw surgery? In fact, during consultations, many people ask, "If I have a long face, is jaw surgery the answer?" but For long face surgery, the most important thing is to first identify the cause of 'why it looks long.' This is because the necessary surgical method can vary completely depending on which part of the face appears elongated. today When is long face/long chin correction necessary, and when is double jaw surgery required? I will explain with a real-life example. ✨ By what criteria are long faces judged? 📌 Face length is determined by the 'thirds ratio'. . A human face can be broadly divided into three parts. ✔️ Upper facial area: Forehead ~ Eyebrows ✔️ Mid-face area: Eyebrows ~ Tip of the nose ✔️ Lower face: From the tip of the nose to the tip of the chin Usually, these three sections A natural and harmonious face when proportions are balanced It appears to be. However, if one part of this becomes long The impression that the entire face looks long This may occur. for example If the distance from the eyebrows to the tip of the nose is long → long mid-face If the distance from the tip of the nose to the tip of the chin is long → long lower face like The solution varies depending on the position where it appears long. 📌 So, in long face surgery Accurate diagnosis of which part appears longer is the most important thing. If I have a long face, do I absolutely have to get double jaw surgery? 📌 If the midface is long, double jaw surgery may be necessary. . From the eyebrows to the tip of the nose In cases where the midface is long In the figure below, marked in red upper jawbone Reduces the length of Orthognathic surgery There are cases where this is necessary. Especially when smiling If a lot of teeth are visible Cases where the gums are excessively exposed The position and length of the upper jaw can have an impact. However, there is an important point. Through double jaw surgery Bone length can be reduced, but There are limitations to changing the position of the nose or the soft tissue itself. in other words ✔ Bone length may decrease, but ✔ The visible mid-face length may not change significantly. so Not all long faces are candidates for orthognathic surgery. ⚠️ An accurate assessment requires a professional diagnosis. What kind of surgery is performed when the chin appears long? 📌 If the lower face is long, it can be improved through facial contouring surgery. . From the tip of the nose to the tip of the chin long lower face If it is It can be improved with a relatively simple facial contouring surgery. A typical method is Long curve resection, Chin surgery no see. In cases where the jawbone is significantly developed Reduce the length of the chin Balance the lower jaw It can alleviate the feeling that your face looks long. As needed square jaw surgery performed together underneath It can help create more natural facial proportions. How have actual cases of patients with long chins changed? 📌 This is a case where facial proportions were improved by adjusting the length of the jaw and the balance of the lower jaw. . From the tip of the nose to the tip of the chin Haan-myeon long face If it is It can be improved with a relatively simple facial contouring surgery. One patient at the time of visit I'm even considering double jaw surgery He was doing it. However, the CT results confirmed The chin is long and The lower jawbone was widely developed. In this case ✔ Long curve resection ✔ Lower Mandibular Bound Resection (LBO) through Direction to reduce the overall length of the lower jaw We proceeded with the surgery. If you check the CT scan after surgery The length of the chin decreases and As the lower jaw balances out I could see that the impression of the face looking long had been significantly softened. 📌 Not just simply shortening the length It is important to consider facial proportions and balance together. What is the most important thing in long face surgery? 📌 What is more important than face length is 'proportions'. . Many people Make the chin shorter, Smaller I think it will become pretty if you make it. But the face eye, nose, chin, Each element It is important to achieve balance. for example Make the jaw shorter or If you cut the bone like in a standard square jaw surgery On the contrary, your facial proportions might be distorted. In this case ⚠️ If your face looks awkward or ⚠️ In some cases, it may appear longer than before the surgery. so In long face surgery, a design that considers proportions is key. When looking at patients visiting for follow-up checkups after surgery Rather than a changed face The feeling that the expression has brightened There are many times when I receive it. Changes in appearance are important, but ✔ Confidence ✔ Changes in facial expressions There are cases where you can feel positive changes even in the same area. Seeing this makes us feel a sense of reward as medical staff as well. 😊 FAQ ❓ Q1. Can a secondary angle develop after square jaw surgery? A1. If square jaw surgery is performed without chin surgery, an angle may form at the starting point of the resection. If the secondary angle is not severe, it can be corrected with simple shaving, but if it is severe, surgery may be required again along with chin surgery. Q2. Can a face with a long midface be corrected with facial contouring surgery? A2. In cases where the midface is long, orthognathic surgery is often more effective. However, if there is no malocclusion and the burden of orthognathic surgery is a concern, methods such as philtrum reduction may be considered. It is recommended to make an accurate decision through consultation following a CT scan. Q3. Can I shave off as much bone as I want during facial contouring surgery? A3. Contouring surgery is not a procedure where you can freely shave down the area as you wish. There are limits to the range of resection depending on the thickness of the cheekbones or the location of the mandibular nerve. Conclusion 🧾 In long face and long chin surgery The most important thing is an accurate diagnosis. Because it makes my face look long It is not always necessary to have double jaw surgery, either. ✔ You don't necessarily have to reduce your jaw size. 📌 Which part of the face looks long 📌 How the overall facial proportions are balanced You must consider these two things together. So, if you are considering surgery ✨ The first step is to find the method that suits you through CT scans and accurate consultation. Also, rather than listening to only one opinion It is recommended to consult with several hospitals and make a careful decision. 3D Plastic Surgery Chief Director Cho Hyun-woo Graduated from Yonsei University College of Medicine Master of Medicine, Yonsei University Graduate School Severance Hospital Plastic Surgeon Visiting Professor, Department of Plastic Surgery, Severance Hospital Regular member of the Korean Society of Plastic and Reconstructive Surgeons Korean Society of Aesthetic Plastic Surgery Regular member Korean Society of Craniofacial Plastic Surgery Regular member International Society of Plastic Surgeons (ISAPS) member Regular member of the Korean Society of Surgery on the Hand Korean Association of Plastic Surgeons Regular member Secretary General of the Minimally Invasive Plastic Surgery Research Society Current Chief Director of Ipche Plastic Surgery Clinic Experience specializing in facial contouring 21 year

hello, 3D Plastic Surgery Researching surgeries to become younger at Director Heo Jae-won, a board-certified plastic surgeon no see. When consulting about a facelift "Doctor, is it absolutely necessary to use a drainage tube?" or "I heard other hospitals don't do this..." saying I often receive questions mixed with worry. Today is Why drainage tubes are a 'reliable ally' that helps our body recover Inji, I'll explain it to you a little more easily and step-by-step! ✨ 1. Is the phrase 'not regenerating HP' really a good thing? ? 🎯 It sounds like the epitome of a clean finish after surgery, but the actual recovery process can be a little different. . It sounds really positive to hear that you don't have to fill up your HP. It feels as if the surgery was so perfect that there was absolutely no bleeding. However, from a medical perspective, it is an expression that could easily lead to misunderstanding. Shall we look at an example? 🏃♂️ Imagine walking down the street and falling, scraping your knee slightly. The bleeding stops quickly, but clear fluid (exudate) continues to come out for a few days, soaking the gauze, right? Even after a facelift, these natural reactions occur inside our bodies. 2. Why does discharge occur after a facelift?🧐 🎯 As this is a major surgery involving a wide area of skin and fascia, exudate occurs as a normal bodily reaction. . A facelift is not simply a surgery that pulls the outer skin. Exfoliating a wide range of skin and treating deep tissues (fascia) together. large-scale surgery no see. ⚠️ What happens if pus accumulates? Even if the bleeding is completely stopped, fluid is bound to ooze from the tissues for 2 to 3 days after surgery; if this fluid cannot drain out, it accumulates between the tissues Severe swelling It becomes. If the amount increases, it collects like a water bag Seroma It could also lead to. 3. What role do drainage tubes play during the 3-day 'golden time' after surgery? 🛡️ 🎯 Accelerates recovery by removing unnecessary fluid during the time when tissues need to be tightly bound. After a facelift First 3 days This is a very important period that determines the success or failure of the result. 📌 Key Points During this period, the fascia and skin must adhere tightly to each other for faster recovery and beautiful results. But if there is pus stuck in between, the tissues won't be able to heal properly, right? ✔️ HP effect Although it is not entirely without discomfort, using the drainage tube for about 1 to 2 days effectively drains the discharge. Swelling is reduced and recovery speed is much faster. FAQ ❓ Q1. What is the duration of the facelift surgery and anesthesia? A1. Usually 3~5 hours It takes about that long, and comfortably sleep anesthesia The procedure will proceed as follows. The duration may vary slightly depending on the individual's condition or the scope of the surgery. Q2. How long should the recovery period be after surgery? A2. Significant swelling and bruising 1~2 weeks It will get much better, and you will be able to resume daily activities in about two weeks! ✨ A natural look takes 3 to 6 months to complete. Q3. Are there any side effects or risks? A3. There is a possibility of temporary sensory loss or nerve damage, but in most cases, it recovers over time. Above all, it is important to consult thoroughly with experienced medical staff to design a plan that minimizes risk. conclusion The answer is "how you recover," not "not bleeding"! What is truly important in a facelift is not simply the promotional claim that there is no bleeding. Satisfaction is determined by how meticulously the post-operative recovery process is designed and managed. Even if it is the same surgery Recovery Design Please keep in mind during the consultation that the process you go through can vary significantly depending on this! 💡 3D Plastic Surgery Director Heo Jae-won Graduated from Yonsei University College of Medicine Master of Medicine, Yonsei University Graduate School Severance Hospital Plastic Surgeon 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 Oculoplastic Surgery Research Group of the Korean Society of Plastic and Reconstructive Surgeons Regular member of the Rhinoplasty Research Group of the Korean Society of Plastic and Reconstructive Surgeons Regular member of the Anti-Aging Plastic Surgery Research Group of the Korean Society of Plastic and Reconstructive Surgeons Regular member of the Liposuction Research Group of the Korean Society of Plastic and Reconstructive Surgeons Regular member of the Laser Plastic Surgery Research Group of the Korean Society of Plastic and Reconstructive Surgeons Regular member of the Botox, Filler, and Thread Lifting Research Group of the Korean Society of Plastic and Reconstructive Surgeons Current Director of Ipse Plastic Surgery Clinic 10 years of experience specializing in lifting procedures

hello, Director Baek In-soo of Garnet Plastic Surgery no see. Regarding the changes in the eyes that occur in middle age, such as drooping eyelids that make the eyes look heavy and impair vision, many people tend to think that “the eyelids are the only problem.” 👀 However, in reality, it is often a complex change that extends down to the eyebrows and forehead. For this reason, if upper eyelid surgery is performed alone, the results may not meet expectations. Today, I will easily explain from a structural perspective why forehead lifts are considered alongside eye surgery for middle-aged patients.✨ Isn't middle-aged eye aging just an issue of the 'eyelids'? 🟢 Eyelid drooping often occurs together with eyebrow and forehead sagging. Upper eyelid sagging in people in their 40s and 50s is not merely a problem of excess skin. It is accompanied by complex changes involving decreased eyelid skin elasticity, relaxation of the orbicularis oculi muscle, eyebrow drooping, and relaxation of the forehead soft tissues. In other words, it is not just the eyelids that are drooping. The eyebrows and forehead have come down together. That is often the case. 💡Example: The habit of opening the eyes while tensing the forehead, making the eyelids look heavy 🎯 It is important to evaluate not only the eyelids but also the eyebrow position and forehead sagging. Why can removing too much skin during upper eyelid surgery be problematic? 🟢 Excessive restraint can cause changes in appearance and a tense eye condition. The purpose of upper eyelid surgery is to improve vision and correct facial features, but skin in middle-aged patients Excessive removal underneath A decrease in the distance between the eyebrows and eyes, and a significant change in appearance may occur. Also, as the eyelids become over-tense The forehead compensatory action may increase when opening the eyes. 💡Example situation Cases where only a large amount of skin was excised while the eyebrows were already drooping → The eyebrows appear relatively lower, creating an unnatural impression ⚠️ Caution! Simply “removing a large amount” does not always lead to good results. Why is a forehead lift often considered together? 🟢 This is an approach to reposition structural causes (eyebrow and forehead sagging). Forehead lift surgery is not simply a procedure to smooth out wrinkles. Surgery to reposition descended eyebrows and forehead soft tissues to their anatomical positions no see. Through this ✔️ Natural eyebrow lift ✔️ Normalize eyebrow-eye distance ✔️ Prevents excessive skin excision You can expect effects such as... In other words, an “approach of cutting less and making it more natural” becomes possible. Is a forehead lift necessary for all middle-aged patients? 🟢 Whether to proceed in parallel depends on whether the eyebrows are lowered. Not all middle-aged patients need a forehead lift. However, in the following cases, we actively consider parallel implementation. 🔸 When eyebrow descent is distinct 🔸 In cases where there are many compensatory wrinkles on the forehead 🔸 When 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 such situations, upper eyelid surgery alone can actually worsen the results. 💡Simple Self-Check Example If your eyes feel more comfortable when you gently lift your eyebrows with your hand → It is highly likely that this is the cause of eyebrow sagging. What is the most important principle in middle-aged eye surgery? The key is 'rearrangement of sagging structures' rather than the amount of resection. The key to middle-aged eye surgery is It is not about how much is removed It lies in how the sagging structure is repositioned. Because the eyelids are part of the upper face It must be judged within 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. Can it look unnatural after surgery? A1. Excessive resection may make the eyes look hollow or cause asymmetry, and excessive pulling may give the impression of being surprised. Q2. How long does the recovery period take, and how long does it take to return to daily life? A2. Bruising and significant swelling will last for about 1 to 2 weeks, and returning to daily life will take about 7 to 10 days; it may take 1 to 3 months to return to a natural state. Q3. Which surgery is correct, upper eyelid surgery or forehead lift? A3. If the eyelid skin is sagging, it is determined based on upper blepharoplasty; if the eyebrows droop and cover the eyes, it is determined based on forehead lift surgery. Conclusion ✨ The success of middle-aged eye surgery is Rather than “how much self-restraint” It depends on “how accurately the cause of the sagging was corrected.” ✨ ✔️ Evaluate not only the eyelids but also the eyebrow position and forehead sagging. ✔️ A structural balance approach is more important than excessive restraint ✔️ Personalized consultation based on individual anatomical condition is necessary If you feel heavy in your eyes and have to use the strength of your forehead to open them Not just simple upper eyelid surgery It is recommended to consult with a specialist for a comprehensive upper facial evaluation.

백인수 원장26.02.24Views 483Likes 3 Why do we need to look at the forehead before double eyelid surgery? The eyebrow position is key.[3]
There are cases where people go for double eyelid surgery consultation and are recommended forehead augmentation first. The important criterion here is not simply “eyes”. Eyebrow position and structure between the eyes no see. If you only perform double eyelid surgery without considering the relationship between the eyes and eyebrows, the result may look stuffy or cause a change in your image. Forehead augmentation is a surgery that is difficult to separate from eye surgery. Forehead augmentation is a surgery that raises the position of the eyebrows. Eyelid surgery is a surgery that deals with the eyes themselves. But the positions of the eyes and eyebrows are connected. It is difficult to judge the eyes and the forehead separately. Especially when the distance between the eyebrows and eyes is narrow If sagging skin covers the eyes, It is necessary to look at the condition of the forehead before the eyes. Why might forehead augmentation be considered before double eyelid surgery? 1) Because sometimes you use your forehead when you open your eyes If your eyes are uncomfortable or the skin is covering your eyes You unconsciously raise your eyebrows and open your eyes. In this case, it may look like “the eyes are small” on the outside, The real cause is not the eyes. Eyebrow and forehead usage habits It could be. 2) If the eyebrow position is low, it may be difficult to solve with double eyelids alone. When the eyebrow position is low If you only get double eyelid surgery The distance between the eyebrows and the double eyelids appears narrower It can make your eyes look dull and blurry. A significant change in impression can be felt That is, if the structural cause is in the forehead Eye surgery alone may not produce natural results. Note: Why the Order of Surgeries Matters Changes that can occur when double eyelids are performed first without forehead augmentation Relaxing your forehead can make your eyebrows appear more droopy. If you try to open your eyes wide, the feeling of being wide-open may become stronger. When considering a forehead lift later on, there may be insufficient skin to lift it. There is a possibility that the double eyelids may loosen or deepen. Also, it is a concern to have a forehead lift after double eyelid surgery. It is mentioned that this may be disadvantageous in terms of surgical order. Differentiation Point: Need to distinguish whether it is a forehead problem or an eye correction problem. A situation where you open your eyes using your forehead Not all causes are the same. Eyebrow positioning issue → Consider forehead augmentation Problems with the ability to open the eyes themselves → Consider eye surgery thus “Is it because my eyes are weak that I use my forehead?” “Do you use your forehead because of sagging skin?” The process of distinguishing is important. Summary: In this case, it makes sense to look at the forehead condition first. If the distance between the eyebrows and eyes is very narrow If you have a habit of opening your eyes with your forehead tense If your eyes feel stuffy due to sagging skin In this situation Rather than approaching double eyelid surgery alone, It is important to judge the eyebrow position and forehead structure together. It can serve as a benchmark for more natural results. Especially if you feel that you can open your eyes well. If you are using the forehead, the direction of the surgery required may be different.

캐시닥 운영진26.02.24Views 223Likes 2 Why do facial contouring surgery prices keep rising? A structurally understandable reason.[3]
Among the anti-aging surgeries that become more popular with age, facelifts are particularly popular. Surgery with large price fluctuations is often mentioned. It is important to understand the price flow structurally, as it is an area where demand structure and labor structure work together, rather than simply feeling that it has “gone expensive.” What determines the price of facial contouring surgery? The cost of facial contouring surgery is not centered on the cost of materials. Cost structure centered on personnel and surgical procedures It's close to . Although it may appear to be a single operation, the actual operation process involves multiple stages of personnel being simultaneously involved, including consultation, surgical preparation, assistance, and treatment. Four Key Structures That Drive Price Rise 1) Labor-intensive surgical structure centered on personnel costs Facial contouring surgery is a highly complex procedure that requires significant surgical time, anatomic understanding, fine manual dexterity, and coordination among the surgical team. than the material surgeon operating room staff Consulting and Operations Staff Same as Structure with a high proportion of high-quality human resource retention costs no see. For this reason, securing and retaining skilled workers directly impacts price formation. 2) Continuous increase in demand for anti-aging products As interest in anti-aging grows, there is a growing trend of demand moving from non-surgical treatments to surgical treatments. especially Reduced aversion to surgery Feeling the limitations of non-surgical methods The growing need to maintain a youthful appearance As these changes accumulate, a structure is formed that expands the demand base for facial contouring surgery itself. 3) Market characteristics where demand is concentrated on ‘good hospitals’ Prices do not rise at all hospitals at the same time, but rather tend to rise at specific specialty hospitals. The reason is simple. Because facial contouring is a surgery with a large gap in results, a structure has been formed where patients choose hospitals based on results. in result Increase in number of cases Increased skill proficiency Additional demand inflow A virtuous cycle is created, leading to price increases centered on some hospitals. 4) Professional team-based operating structure It is common for multiple personnel, including a counseling team, surgical team, and support staff, to operate simultaneously for one patient. While these team-based operations are important for maintaining service quality, they can lead to increased fixed labor costs. Factors identified when looking at the “standards for a good hospital” Because facial contouring is a surgery with a large degree of technical variance, it is often the case that criteria factors are considered together rather than simply comparing prices. The most commonly cited criteria for judgment are as follows: Whether or not you are a plastic surgery specialist Experience and sensation of Smart Layer peeling Skill level that can be achieved without major nerve damage Whether high-difficulty options can be performed Appropriate surgery time Transparency in Disclosure of Before and After Photos especially Deflection technique As A method that simultaneously lifts the skin, fat, and SMAS layers is mentioned as an area where results can vary greatly depending on skill level. Situational Flow: Price Changes Driven by Simultaneous Economic, Demand, and Labor Structures The complex interaction of economic changes, rising costs of high-quality medical personnel, increasing demand for anti-aging treatments, and the concentration of specialized hospitals has led to The price of facelift surgery It's not just a simple increase in cost. A tendency to move based on market structure It looks like this. So, even for the same facial contouring procedure, the guidance cost often varies from hospital to hospital. 👇 See real visitor reviews Is facelift surgery possible?

캐시닥 운영진26.02.24Views 151Likes 2 Is facial contouring surgery more painful than you think? Here's everything you need to know about the recovery process and diet.[4]
The first things that users who search for facial contouring surgery worry about are “how much does it hurt” and “how difficult is the recovery?” In particular, because the expression 'bone-crushing' often leads to an exaggerated imagination of actual pain, it is important to understand the exact cause of pain and the recovery process. What Causes Pain During Facial Contouring Surgery? Although facial contouring surgery is a surgery that deals with bones, the main cause of pain is not the bones. Muscles and surrounding tissues no see. The bone itself has very few pain-sensing nerves, so the expression "bone-crushing pain" is different from the actual pain. Postoperative pain occurs when facial muscles (especially large muscles) are touched during the surgical process. Muscle pain type is the center. Why and how long does actual pain occur? 1) The reality of the pain is muscle pain. There is little pain in the bone itself. Pain occurs when touching facial muscles (masseter, etc.) Pain may occur for approximately 2 to 3 days after surgery. Pain sensation may vary depending on the surgical site. For example, surgery in areas that do not involve many large muscles may be relatively less painful. Additionally, if eye and nose surgery are performed at the same time, there may be cases where pain in other areas is felt more severely. Why Pain Management is Important in Postoperative Recovery Acute pain and swelling management are key elements of early recovery. Especially in the case of contouring surgery that requires general anesthesia, a systematic aftercare environment is important. Hospitalization on the day of surgery is recommended Painkillers and injectable painkillers can be administered Swelling management through medication Immediate response possible in case of nocturnal bleeding Management in an inpatient setting may be more effective in controlling acute pain and swelling than management at home. Precautions: Postoperative diet and oral incision care Facial contouring surgery is often performed through an incision inside the mouth. At this time, the condition of the mouth can be understood as similar to the state of the sutured wisdom tooth after extraction. If the anesthesia wears off quickly You can eat on the day of surgery. Recommended soft food intake If there is no pain when chewing, eating itself is not a big problem. The incision site is sutured to prevent food from entering directly. A more realistic approach is to adjust the intensity of your meals based on whether you feel pain, rather than forcing yourself to chew. Precautions: Considerations for Pain and Swelling Management Pain may be most noticeable during the acute phase (first 2-3 days). The level of pain varies from person to person depending on the surgical site. Choosing a hospital with a hospitalization system is important in terms of recovery management. In particular, the initial response system may affect the stability of recovery, as elevated blood pressure, especially at night, may lead to bleeding tendency. Summary: A Realistic Understanding of Facial Contouring Surgery Pain Facial contouring surgery is more about 'bone pain' than Pain centered on muscle aches This is the week and usually tends to appear during the first 2-3 days after surgery. More important than the pain itself is how acute swelling and pain are managed, and hospitalization and medication management play a key role in the recovery process. Eating is possible from the same day depending on the patient's recovery from anesthesia and the presence of pain. However, it is not the case that basic eating is impossible due to the sutured mouth. If you are considering surgery, understanding the actual pain pattern and recovery management method will help reduce your anxiety. 👇 View posts related to facial contouring surgery Facial Contouring Surgery: The Face Shape Criteria That Make a Significant Difference in Results [Health Column] Contouring Surgery: What are the possible side effects of excessive bone resection?

Non-incision double eyelid surgery is often misunderstood as “surgery to make the eyes bigger,” which causes a lot of confusion during the consultation stage. It is very important to distinguish between the concepts, as it can lead to unnecessary correction, especially if recommended even when the eye opening ability is normal. Double eyelid surgery and eye correction are completely different surgeries. Double eyelid surgery is a method of making the eyelid skin fold to make the eyes appear larger. On the other hand, eye correction is a surgery that strengthens the eye opening power in cases where the eye opening power is weak. in other words, Making small eyes look bigger What actually strengthens the power of opening one's eyes These two concepts have structurally different purposes. Why Non-Incisional Eyelid Surgery is Easy to Perform Non-incision double eyelid surgery involves folding the Miller muscle from the inside and tying it with thread without making an incision. However, because the eye is an organ that moves repeatedly, the structure that binds it can be affected by the movement. Additionally, there is a limitation that long-term maintenance is difficult due to the presence of inter-organizational volume resistance. This can cause disorientation during repetitive eye movements. When unnecessary non-incisional double eyelid surgery is a problem 1) Risk of overcorrection when eye opening power is normal If you have normal eye opening ability and undergo eye correction, side effects such as headaches and dizziness may occur due to overcorrection. In particular, patients with pseudoptosis often have skin and fat covering their eyes, making them appear smaller than they actually are, which can lead to unnecessary correction. 2) Confusion between pseudoptosis and true ptosis Self-diagnosis using the forehead can be difficult to distinguish between pseudoptosis and true ptosis. An accurate assessment should be made by lifting the eyelid skin and checking how much of the pupil is covered. The exposure of the beginning of the eyelashes and the degree to which the pupils are covered are important criteria for judgment. 3) Structural limitations of surgery for the purpose of enlarging the double eyelid Some surgical methods How to remove only the skin without creating adhesions Method of folding and tying only the Miller muscle The back is also used. In this case, problems such as scar exposure, minimal effect, and loosening may occur, and there are cases where it leads to reoperation. When is Non-Incisional Eyelid Surgery Necessary? The key criterion is “whether or not there is true ptosis.” If the ability to open the eyes is normal, eye correction itself may not be necessary, and may only result in the possibility of overcorrection side effects. Additionally, for patients with true ptosis, incisional blepharoplasty may be a more effective option than the non-incisional method, which is more prone to loosening. The reason why opinions on the necessity of eye correction differ greatly from hospital to hospital is often due to differences in diagnostic criteria. Therefore, rather than simply approaching it with the goal of “making the eyes look bigger,” it is important to determine the need for surgery based on an accurate diagnosis. By looking at actual consultation cases and comparing them to your own eye condition, your selection criteria often become clearer. 👇 See reviews from actual users I was very satisfied with my eye correction consultation at Namdong-gu Eco Clinic. 👇 See more posts about eye correction Is eyelid surgery really a "never-to-be-done" procedure?

When sagging eyes become severe, they can make you look tired or have a strong impression, so many people consider upper eyelid surgery to improve them naturally. However, the approach of simply “making the double eyelids bigger will solve the problem” can actually cause a significant change in impression, so it is important to first understand the subject and principles. Definition and Basic Principles of Upper Eyelid Surgery Upper eyelid surgery is a surgery that creates double eyelids while removing sagging skin to improve sagging eyes that appear in middle-aged people. While the incisional double eyelid surgery for the younger generation focuses on strengthening adhesion, the key difference for the middle-aged generation is that it additionally addresses sagging skin. In other words, it is closer to a process of organizing the eyes while organizing sagging skin rather than a surgery that enlarges a line that did not exist before. Why can an impression appear to be three-dimensional? The reason why your impression looks different after upper eyelid surgery is not simply due to the surgery itself, but rather due to the structural change. The main causes can be summarized into two. A sudden change in one's impression due to the development of double eyelids that were not there before Structural changes that bring the eyebrows and eyelashes closer together through skin excision If you make your double eyelids too big, it may not result in a natural recovery but rather a strong impression. So, in middle-aged eye surgery, the goal is often to “restore the impression of youth” rather than “make the eyes bigger.” For whom is this surgery relatively suitable? Upper eyelid surgery is not the same for all cases of ptosis. Good results depend more on 'selecting the right target' than on the type of surgery. Suitable target characteristics include: If the eyebrow sagging is not severe If the skin is sagging but not thick There are many different ways to treat sagging eyes, and no particular surgery is necessarily superior. Because the application method may vary depending on the case, different choices may be provided even for the same sag. Key factors to consider for natural results 1) Balance between double eyelid height and skin resection amount Rather than making the double eyelids bigger, an approach that addresses sagging by adjusting the amount of excision may be more natural. Even if the double eyelid is not large, the sagging improvement effect can be sufficiently different depending on the amount of skin excised. 2) Change in eyebrow-eyelash distance When skin is removed, the distance between the structures becomes closer, which can make the impression appear stronger. In this case, it is explained that a finishing surgery that also considers the eyebrow line can have an effect on alleviating the impression. 3) Whether or not you have a thick eyeliner tattoo If you have thick eyeliner tattoos due to sagging, the tattoos may be more exposed after surgery, making you look more intense. In particular, when a double eyelid line is created, the exposure range of the existing tattoo changes. Realistic about recovery time and scarring Recovery time may vary depending on your individual skin condition and the amount of skin removed. In older patients, recovery tends to take longer, with natural results often taking about a month. Since the scar is structured to roll inward on the double eyelid line, it is usually not very visible when the eyes are open. However, since it is a surgery that removes skin, there may not be a complete absence of scars. Depending on the degree of sagging eyes, eyebrow position, skin thickness, and existing eyeliner condition, the method of application and direction of results are often different for the same upper eyelid surgery. So, the selection process may vary depending on the specific case rather than the method itself to improve sagging eyes. 👇 Leave a question that suits your conditions [Health Column] Key Points for Natural Upper Eyelid Surgery: Improving Sagging Eyelids in Middle-Aged People What should you check first for changes in your eyes in your 40s?

hello, Director Baek In-soo of Garnet Plastic Surgery no see. As I get older The eyes look heavy and tired. You often hear stories like that. It is easy to think, “Wouldn’t it be enough to just redo the double eyelids?” but, In reality, more complex changes than that may occur together. Middle-aged eye surgery It is not simply a surgery to smooth out the skin, A process that must consider both the function of opening the eyes and structural changes. no see. Then, what should we look at together? Let's take a closer look. What is middle-aged eye surgery? 🟢 This surgery addresses not only skin sagging but also function. Middle-aged eye surgery is a procedure that improves the shape of the eyes by correcting the skin and soft tissues of the upper eyelids that have sagged due to aging. However, it does not stop at simply removing sagging skin. 🔸 Functional changes in the muscles and tissues responsible for opening the eyes 🔸 Aging of eyelid structure 🔸 Individual differences in eye condition The key is to consider all these elements together. for example, Even in cases where you feel, “My double eyelids are hidden, making me look stuffy” In reality Changes in the strength to open the eyes There are quite a few cases where it is accompanied by... Therefore, during consultation, functional evaluation is more important than simple design. What is the principle of upper eyelid surgery for middle-aged patients? The goal is to balance the eye-opening structure while tidying up excessive skin. While trimming unnecessary skin and tissue from the eyelids, It balances the structures involved in opening the eyes so that they function naturally. Such changes are common after middle age. 🔹 Vision obstructed by sagging skin 🔹 The habit of tensing the forehead or eyebrows to open the eyes 🔹 Persistent tension around the eyes Upper eyelid surgery reduces this burden, and The purpose is to create a state where the eyes open more comfortably. There is. ⚠️ It is not advisable to undergo excessive ablation solely for the purpose of cosmetic change. Function and balance must be considered together. What changes and effects can be expected? 🟢 We aim for 'less stifling eyes' rather than 'bigger and more glamorous eyes'. The first change you feel after upper eyelid surgery in middle age Relieves tightness around the eyes no see. 🔸 Clearing up the hidden eye look 🔸 A clearer and more relaxed impression 🔸 Improved vision in some cases 🔸 Reduces forehead tension when opening eyes However, the important point is, It is not a surgery that drastically changes one's appearance. no see. Within a range that does not compromise facial balance The goal is to improve it naturally. What should you know before surgery, and what is the recovery process like? The recovery process varies from person to person, and excessive restraint requires caution. Although upper eyelid surgery is performed relatively stably, 🔹 Early swelling and bruising 🔹 Pain varies from person to person 🔹 Recovery time for a certain period This may be accompanied. In most cases, daily life is possible within 1 to 2 weeks, but The final naturalness depends on the individual's recovery speed. ⚠️ You should be careful of the misconception that “cutting away a lot of skin makes it more defined.” Excessive excision may result in the eyes not closing properly or giving an unnatural impression. A plan that considers both function and structure is important. In what cases is it helpful, and in what cases should one be cautious? 🟢The first step is to distinguish whether the cause is skin or functional decline. ✔️ Cases where it can be helpful When your eyes feel heavy due to sagging upper eyelid skin When the double eyelids are hidden, giving a stifling impression 🔎 When to be cautious When the main cause is a decline in the strength to open the eyes itself In cases of systemic diseases or eye-related diseases In this case, other methods such as eye shape correction can be considered together. Please check the following during the consultation. 🔸 Skin excision area 🔸 Expected degree of change 🔸 Recovery period 🔸 Feature evaluation status FAQ Q1. Can the eyes become clearer with upper eyelid surgery alone? A1. It is possible if upper eyelid skin sagging is the primary cause. However, if the ability to open the eyes has weakened, eyelid correction may need to be considered as well. An accurate diagnosis is made through a medical examination. Q2. Does your appearance look very different after the surgery? A2. The goal is not to drastically change the impression, but to alleviate the feeling of stuffiness. If the procedure is tailored to the individual's eye structure, you can expect a natural change. Q3. Is surgery possible even at an advanced age? A3. Eye condition and overall health are more important than age. It is fully possible depending on the condition, and prior diagnosis is important. Conclusion ✨ Upper eyelid surgery for middle-aged people is simply It is not a cosmetic surgery to remove sagging skin. ✔️ Consider changes in eyelid structure and function ✔️ Goal: Using eyes comfortably ✔️ Understand the scope of change rather than expecting excessive improvement The goal of middle-aged eye surgery is Not 'clarity' It is 'more comfort'. If you are considering surgery, First, check whether the current inconvenience is due to the appearance or the function. A choice based on sufficient consultation and understanding It can lead to the most natural and long-lasting results.

The reason why the area under the eyes looks puffy or has dark circles is often not a simple color issue, but rather the location of the fat and the structure of the tear trough. This content is Under-eye fat repositioning surgery What is the principle behind it? We have organized it structurally and established the criteria necessary to understand the surgery. 1. What is lower eyelid fat repositioning surgery? Lower eyelid fat repositioning surgery is a method to simultaneously correct protruding orbital fat and sunken tear troughs. Rather than removing fat, this is an approach that moves the location to relieve the curve. Why is it important? The cause of under eye problems is fat and tear troughs. Positional imbalance If you only reduce fat, the curves may remain or the bulge may return. 2. How is the surgery performed? 2-1. Surgical approach It is not a method of cutting or pulling the surface of the skin. The surgery is performed by approaching the inner part of the eye. It is a structure that makes it difficult to confirm surgical traces from the outside. 2-2. Summary of Core Courses Separate the attachment point of the eye closing muscle attached to the tear trough area Move the protruding orbital fat toward the tear trough Maintains the position by fixing the weakened septum with fat This process is designed to simultaneously relieve bulging and hollowing under the eyes. 3. Differences from existing methods Some methods focus on reducing protruding fat. However, in this case, the anatomical factor called the tear trough may remain. If you only reduce fat → curves remain As time passes → it may appear bulging again The difference between lower eyelid fat repositioning and lower eyelid fat repositioning is that it treats both the fat and the tear trough together. 4. Structural Causes of Under-Eye Puffiness and Dark Circles There is fatty tissue under the eyes that fills the space between the eyeball and the bone. This fat originally acts as a cushion, When the septum in the tear trough area becomes weak As the fat is pushed forward The area under your eyes will appear puffy. So the problem is Amount of fat It is closer to the direction in which the fat is located and to the fixed state. 5. Permanence and limitations of surgery 5-1. Why is it explained that it only happens once? Because the total amount of orbital fat does not change. The surgery does not remove fat, but rather repositions and fixes it. This structure secures the diaphragm together to reduce the possibility of re-moval. 5-2. Just something to consider Skin aging itself can occur independently. If your skin sags or wrinkles appear over time, Additional skin treatment may be required. If you address your fat issues first, you will have more room to narrow down the scope of any skin treatment you may need later. 6. To summarize Undereye fat repositioning is not fat removal surgery. This method involves organizing the location of fat and tear trough structure that cause the under-eye wrinkles. Access from the inside without external incision, It is described as a surgery that increases structural stability by fixing the fat and septum together. If your under-eye problem isn't simply a matter of color or puffiness, understanding the underlying structure can help you make a decision.

hello, Director Baek In-soo of Garnet Plastic Surgery 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 the age of 50, it is not simply a sagging feeling, The area between the eyes and the cheeks is sunken, giving the impression that the center of the face has collapsed. This stands out. In this column, 🔹 Key changes in mid-facial aging in people in their 50s 🔹 How SOOF lower blepharoplasty approaches restoration based on principles I will calmly organize this. I will explain it focusing on the points that people actually struggle with the most. Why does mid-facial aging in people in their 50s manifest as 'elongation and hollowing'? 🟢 The key to mid-facial aging in your 50s is not sagging Vertical elongation and loss of volume no see. Then why does this change occur? 🔸 3 Key Main Causes ✔️ Relaxation of the orbicularis oculi muscle and supporting ligaments The boundary between the lower eyelid and the mid-face collapses, making the area under the eyes appear elongated. ✔️ Anterior protrusion and downward movement of orbital fat → The area under the eyes becomes puffy, and the cheeks below are relatively sunken ✔️ Descent of mid-facial fat pad and reduction of bone support The volume of the front of the cheeks decreases, and the starting points of the tear trough and nasolabial folds are emphasized. Due to this ✔ The height difference between the under-eye area and the cheeks becomes larger ✔ The center of the face looks long and sunken ✔ Overall Presbyopia/tired appearance This is formed. What is the concept of restoration in SOOF lower blepharoplasty? 🟢 Not just simple removal An approach that reconnects the structure no see. Spoo white eyelid Surgery to structurally restore lower eyelids and mid-face aging no see. 🔹 1. Conservative repositioning of orbital fat protruding fat Without removing , to the tear trough and mid-facial depression Advancement and redeployment do. ✔ The volume between the under-eyes and the cheeks connects naturally. ✔ Prevents excessive hollowing and an artificial appearance 🔹 2. Orbicularis oculi–Mid-facial Complex Elevation Relaxed orbicularis oculi muscle and mid-facial soft tissues Fixed in the upper outer direction do. ✔ Prevents lower eyelid sagging ✔ Restores the mid-face to look short and firm This is not a simple skin excision, Functional and Structural Repositioning It corresponds to. 🔹 3. Visual shortening effect of mid-facial length The boundary between the under-eye and cheek Reset upward While ✔ The vertical length of the mid-face appears short and ✔ You will regain a condensed impression in the center of your face ✨ What changes can you expect from S-Poo lower eyelid surgery? Rather than 'getting younger' A comfortable and stable impression change That is the key. 🔸 Major changes expected ✔ Relieves under-eye puffiness ✔ Improves tear troughs and dark circles ✔ Restoration of mid-facial depression ✔ Mid-face vertical length shortening effect ✔ Tired impression → Clear and stable impression Especially in the 50s Rather than “youthful” The changes are significantly noticeable, such as "you look healthy" and "your impression has become more relaxed." Are there any precautions or procedures I should take after the surgery? It is important to be aware of the recovery process and possible side effects in advance. 🔹 General course after surgery 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 (mostly improves during the recovery process) ⚠️ Risk of valgus with excessive traction → Setting the fixed point accurately is important. FAQ Q1. What is the difference between S-Poo lower blepharoplasty and standard lower blepharoplasty? A1. If a standard lower eyelid surgery focuses on fat removal, the SPOO lower eyelid surgery is Preserve and redistribute the local area and restore Jungan-myeon as well. The biggest difference is that it does that. Q2. I had surgery under my eyes, but can the mid-face improve as well? A2. It is possible. Since the lower eyelid and mid-face are structures connected by the orbicularis oculi muscle and ligaments, through suspension Visual improvement making the mid-face look shorter and more elastic You can expect. Q3. If I don't remove the fat, won't it bulge back? A3. Properly redistributed fat is rather It serves to fill in sunken areas. The likelihood of re-protrusion is low. Conclusion ✨ ✔ The key to mid-facial aging in people in their 50s is Elongation and depression ✔ Spoo lower eyelid is Reordering the structure, not removing Surgery focused on ✔ A change in appearance is better than an 'excessive youthful look' A comfortable and stable face However, since aging continues, 📌 Results may vary depending on individual skin elasticity and lifestyle habits. As an approach tailored to one's own facial structure is required, 👉 The process of making a decision through sufficient consultation is important. do.

백인수 원장26.02.04Views 663Likes 3 Facial Contouring Surgery: The Face Shape Criteria That Make a Significant Difference in Results
Contouring surgery is a surgery where expectations for the results are as high as the determination. However, the extent of change can vary greatly depending on the facial shape. If you are considering surgery, it is important to first know whether your face is a good candidate for the procedure and what the limitations are. What face shape is most effective after facial contouring surgery? The effectiveness of contouring surgery depends on the degree of bone protrusion and the overall proportions of the face. ✔ When the effect of the surgery is significant A face with a prominent cheekbone A face with a relatively small skull Jaw reduction surgery is a surgery that creates lines by organizing protruding contours. If you have a large head, the change in contour may be relatively less noticeable. ✔ Cases where square jaw surgery is effective If the jaw angle is distinct If you have a thin neck and wide jawbones The wider the face appears when viewed from the front or side, The purpose of square jaw surgery is to reduce the angle and create a softer impression. The larger the angle and width, the greater the perceived change. ⚠ Limitations that must be checked before contouring surgery ❗ Why is nerve location important? When performing square jaw surgery, the location of the nerve lines passing through the inside of the jawbone may limit the scope of the surgery. Nerve lines cannot be seen with the naked eye Location and distance can only be confirmed through CT scan The lower the nerve line, the more limited the resection range. Situations that may arise when there are restrictions Some bones may appear relatively large The center of gravity may be tilted to one side, preventing the desired jawline from appearing. Possibility of dissatisfaction with the results 👍 In case of less nerve line restrictions If the nerve line is in a high position → There are also cases where the scope of resection is less restricted and a result closer to the desired contour is achieved. Summary: When it comes to contouring surgery, 'checking the conditions' comes before expectations. Contouring surgery does not guarantee the same changes to all faces. The degree of protrusion of the cheekbones and square jaw + the proportions of the face determine the effectiveness. Confirming the location of the nerve line with CT is an essential element of judgment. Having realistic expectations before surgery can determine your satisfaction with the results. ✍️ If you are considering contouring surgery, first checking “what conditions does my face meet” will help reduce unnecessary expectations and serve as a starting point for making a choice.

hello. Dr. Hyun-woo Cho, Chief Director of 3D Plastic Surgery no see. When consulting about square jaw surgery, I get asked a lot, "If I have the surgery, will I definitely get a V-line?" but Reducing your square jaw does not automatically make your face slimmer from the front. There are quite a few cases where the side looks smaller, but the front remains the same. today Why this difference occurs , and What role 'cortical osteotomy' plays in determining the frontal effect I will explain it step by step. Why is the frontal view different after square jaw surgery? 📌 Cutting a square jaw does not result in the same facial changes for everyone. . Square jaw surgery is Osteotomy in a long curve from the square jaw below the ear to just before the front jawbone It is a surgery that softens the jawline. From the side, the angle below the ears is reduced, making the face look smaller, but The frontal effect varies depending on the 'shape' of the jawbone. ✔️ Looking at the CT scan, the blind spot appears less pronounced from the front, but ✔️ From the side, there are also cases where the angle below the ear drops down to nearly 90 degrees. 👉 In this case, If you only cut the angle, you may not feel a significant change from the front. 🔸 Example This is the reason why the question arises, “I’m satisfied with the side view, but why does the front view look exactly the same?” The frontal effect It is not about how much you cut, but which structure you reduce. That is more important 🔸 Advice 👉 Before surgery The process of receiving an explanation based on both frontal and lateral CT scans This is absolutely necessary. CT before simulation (rolled jawbone) Why is it less effective in cases where the square jawbone is 'curved in'? 📌 If the bone is curled inward, the width may not decrease even if it is cut off. . square jawbone Inwardly curled shape and Outwardly spreading shape It is divided into. In the case where it gets caught Even if a significant amount of the square jawbone is removed, there may appear to be almost no change in the frontal width. That is why people say, “I had square jaw surgery, but my front view looks similar.” CT after simulation (rolled jawbone) 🔸 Key Points ✔️ The frontal effect is not the 'amount of resection' Bone orientation and structure It depends on 🔸 Advice 👉 You Whether it is a dried bone structure or a spread-out structure It is important to check this first. Why does an outward-spreading square jaw show a better frontal effect? 📌 This is because the front width itself is reduced. . In cases where the square jawbone is spread outward, With just square jaw surgery Change in width from the front It is relatively clear. Extended jawbone before simulation Extended jawbone after simulation 🔸 Example In the frontal photo, the jawline feels like it has shifted one step inward. Cases where the sensation of the face becoming “slimmer from the front as well” is felt relatively quickly 🔸 Advice Even the same surgery The perceived results can vary significantly depending on the bone shape. Then, what role does 'cortical osteotomy' play? 📌 This is a method considered together to enhance the frontal effect. Cortical osteotomy reduces the outer surface (lateral cortex) of the square jawbone Not only the sides A method to reduce volume from the front as well no see. The square jawbone has a multi-layered structure, Among these Removing only the outer layer is lateral cortical osteotomy. no see. Even at the same location, the method of smoothing the surface instead of cutting is 'cortical shaving'. It is called [this]. ✔️ Even if the angle below the ear is not large ✔️ Even if the bone is rolled inward 👉 It is used to complement the frontal effect. Cortical CT ⚠️ Caution Because cortical thickness varies from person to person The extent of resection is determined differently for each individual. It works Excessive osteotomy is Risk of side effects Proficiency is important because it can increase it. Why is cortical osteotomy important in square jaw surgery? 📌 This is the factor that creates the 'reason it looks like a V-line' from the front. Looking at actual cases of facial contouring surgery, Even if the angle below the ear does not change significantly Cases where the lateral cortical volume decreases, making it look like a V-line There are many. ✔️ Square jaw angle resection ✔️ Bone separation ✔️ Masseter muscle condition You must consider these three together The frontal effect can be improved. CT scan before and after cortical osteotomy 🔸 Advice 👉 If you want a frontal effect The key is 'where to reduce' rather than 'how much to cut'. no see. FAQ ❓ Q1. Are there criteria for when square jaw surgery is necessary and when it is possible to use Botox? A1. If the frontal angle appears severe but is not large on CT, improvement can be expected with Botox as muscle influence is greater than bone influence. However, if bone development is also present, surgical methods will be considered. Q2. How are masseter reduction and cortical osteotomy different? A2. Masseter reduction is a method to decrease muscle volume, while cortical osteotomy is a method to reduce the outer volume of the bone. For a frontal effect, the bone structure and muscle condition are assessed together. Q3. How long is the recovery period after square jaw surgery? A3. Major swelling usually takes about two weeks to resolve, and residual swelling gradually subsides over several months. Conclusion 🧾 ✔️ Not everyone who undergoes square jaw surgery will achieve the same frontal effect. ✔️ Depending on the shape of the bone Cases where cortical osteotomy or shaving alone is sufficient There is. ✔️ The important thing is Personalized judgment based on your CT structure It is. ✨ Rather than surgery that blindly cuts out a large amount, A method suitable for the current situation Decide after sufficient consultation with a specialist I recommend that you do so. 3D Plastic Surgery Chief Director Cho Hyun-woo Graduated from Yonsei University College of Medicine Master of Medicine, Yonsei University Graduate School Severance Hospital Plastic Surgeon Visiting Professor, Department of Plastic Surgery, Severance Hospital Regular member of the Korean Society of Plastic and Reconstructive Surgeons Korean Society of Aesthetic Plastic Surgery Regular member Korean Society of Craniofacial Plastic Surgery Regular member International Society of Plastic Surgeons (ISAPS) member Regular member of the Korean Society of Surgery on the Hand Korean Association of Plastic Surgeons Regular member Secretary General of the Minimally Invasive Plastic Surgery Research Society Current Chief Director of Ipche Plastic Surgery Clinic Experience specializing in facial contouring 21 year

Many of you often hear that you look tired, or are concerned about the deep dark circles you see in the mirror, right? ‘Undereye fat repositioning’ and ‘lower eyelid surgery’ are said to solve undereye concerns. For those of you who are curious about the differences and the cost of the similar-sounding names, we've summarized the key points. 1. Why is under-eye fat surgery divided into two types? The surgical technique varies significantly depending on the condition under the eyes. The key question is whether to simply transfer fat or to also remove excess skin. Under-eye fat repositioning (recommended for younger people) Target: If the skin is elastic but the fat protrudes convexly. characteristic: Fat is evenly redistributed through the conjunctiva inside the eye without skin incision. Lower eyelid surgery (recommended for middle-aged and older people) Target: When skin and muscles become loose and fat sags due to aging. characteristic: An incision is made to remove excess skin, and muscle lifting is performed simultaneously. A comprehensive approach is necessary, as targeting only fat in cases of low elasticity can worsen fine wrinkles. 2. Will dark circles disappear with surgery? This is a point that many people misunderstand. The effectiveness of surgery varies depending on the cause of the dark circles. category cause Surgical effects shade type Shadows caused by protruding fat under the eyes Clear improvement possible Color type Skin discoloration due to rhinitis and blood circulation problems Surgical improvement is limited 💡 What is micro fat grafting? This method brightens the skin tone by placing a thin layer of fat under pigmented skin. However, caution is advised, as the skin tends to return to its original color over time, and adding a specific color of fat to match the skin tone can result in an unnatural appearance. 3. Why the estimated cost and price may differ The average cost of lower eyelid fat repositioning is From the late 1 million won to around 2 million won It is formed as follows. However, there are variables that may cause the price to fluctuate during consultation. Additional items: When including dural reinforcement, micro fat grafting, etc. Existing foreign substances: If previously inserted filler or foreign substances need to be removed. Whether or not to have a second surgery: If tissue adhesions are severe, the surgical difficulty increases and the cost increases. The pitfalls of advertising: The special prices on plastic surgery apps are likely based on 'simple fat removal', so you should check carefully. 4. Check for side effects and disappointing results in advance. Although serious side effects are rare, there may be subjective satisfaction or regrets due to minor differences. Low correction: If the surgery went well but the result was not 100% flat as expected (approximately 80% improvement). Bumpy: When fat grafting is performed concurrently, the grafted area may become clumped or unevenly grafted.

When you want to improve the shape of your nose, the first question that comes to mind is, “Can I do it with fillers, or do I need surgery?” If you choose a procedure without knowing this standard, 👉 The effect is limited or 👉 You may end up choosing a risky procedure. Below are the criteria that clearly divide fillers into cases where they can be 'improved' and cases where they 'should be absolutely avoided'. Cases where correction is possible with a coffee filter (4 cases) ① Hawk-tailed eagle definition : A nose with a protruding middle bridge and a nose with curved upper and lower lines principle: Based on the protruding point 👉 Add filler above and below 👉 How to make the entire line look gentle point Not to remove the protruding bone An approach to organizing lines visually ② Arrow nose definition : A shape in which the tip of the nose appears to be drooping principle Filler is injected into the columella area of the nose. Relieve the impression of being lowered down Reference elements Approaches to alleviate muscle action as an adjunctive method are mentioned. Some improvement is possible with fillers alone. ③ Crooked nose (mild cases) definition : A shape where the bridge of the nose appears bent to one side If possible If the degree of bending is not severe If the bridge of the nose is not excessively thick principle Complement the line on the opposite side of the curve How to make it look straight from the front reference severely bent or If the bridge of the nose is thick and crooked, a surgical approach may be necessary. ④ Overall low nose definition : When the overall height of the nose is low and there is a lack of three-dimensional effect principle From the tip of the nose to the root of the nose Continuously complement the overall volume characteristic Relatively common indications Close to the concept of “adding height” Not recommended as a filler (Caution) ❌ Nose width related procedures Why is it dangerous? The nostril area is structurally solid. It is explained that the risk is high because the blood vessel distribution is complex. organize Filler treatments to enlarge the nostrils are not recommended. Reducing the size of the nose is impossible with fillers. Some botox approaches have been mentioned, but they cannot replace surgical reduction. ❌ If you want to make the tip of your nose sharp like a knife margin Fillers are like cartilage or bone. Limitations in creating very sharp shapes meaning If you want a “sophisticated shape change” Structural correction may be necessary ❌ When you want to narrow your wide nose It is impossible to reduce an already wide nose by using filler. In this case, an approach that addresses the bone structure is necessary. Key Summary If there is some improvement possible with fillers Hawk-nosed Arrow nose slightly crooked nose Overall low nose When it is difficult to solve with filler Adjusting the size and width of the nostrils Expression of a very pointed nose tip When structurally reducing a wide nose finally The important thing in rhinoplasty is not knowing what you can do, but knowing what you cannot do. The appropriate choice between surgery and fillers will depend on the structure of your nose and the extent of change you desire.

Eyelid surgery is one of the surgeries that is always controversial in communities and videos. It is also common to see claims that “you should never get eye correction surgery.” But the crux of the matter is not the surgery itself, but the question of who needs it. 1️⃣ Why is eye correction so controversial? We need to start by defining eye correction. Eye correction is discussed in two main contexts. Ptosis surgery (disease) When the eyelids cover the pupil due to insufficient strength in the muscles that open the eyes, causing visual impairment → Diagnose the disease and perform surgery for treatment purposes Eye correction for cosmetic purposes When you want bigger eyes and a clearer impression, but it is not a disease An approach that uses the eye-opening structure to make the eyes look bigger → Rather than “treatment” Aesthetic choice Close to 👉 The eye correction covered in this article is For cosmetic purposes, not for the treatment of diseases no see. 2️⃣ When do you think eye correction is necessary? The most intuitive criteria presented by doctors When deciding whether to recommend eye surgery, some of the most common criteria doctors consider are: Black pupil exposure The pupils If it appears to be less than 80% If you only get double eyelid surgery, You may look more sleepy The ideal exposure range is About 80~90% If you don't meet this standard, your eyes may not look clear even if you only make double eyelids. 3️⃣ There are definitely cases where eye correction is not necessary. In the case of pseudoptosis The ability to open your eyes is normal. If the skin is sagging and covering the eyes This is called pseudoptosis. In this case Just fix the sagging skin In many cases, the pupils are fully exposed Eye correction may not be necessary In other words, “I avoid hospitals that recommend eye correction.” Distrust that arises when you recommend something to an eye that doesn't need it This is a claim that comes from . 4️⃣ Ultimately, the criteria for selection is 'expectations regarding eye size' What is important in the counseling process is The patient's desired final eye size no see. Doctors usually offer the following options: Choice A Just corrects sagging skin → Eyes look slightly clearer than they are now If you are satisfied with A → No need for eye correction Choice B A choice to make the eyes appear larger by increasing the exposure of the pupils. If you want B → you can consider eye correction There is no single correct answer; it depends on the desired outcome. 5️⃣ Non-incision double eyelid surgery isn't for everyone. Principle of non-incision method A method of double eyelid surgery in which threads are placed on the muscles that open the eyes, causing them to exert slightly more strength. The power to open your eyes If it's just a little bit lacking Considered only for When application is limited If you have a severe lack of strength to open your eyes If there is left-right asymmetry If your eyes have a lot of volume In this situation, non-incision double eyelid surgery is It may not be effective or suitable. Therefore, the choice of surgical method is the doctor's judgment, not the patient's. 6️⃣ How should we view the claim that “don’t get eye correction”? The statement that you should never get eye correction surgery is not a one-size-fits-all answer that can be applied in all cases. If you recommend it to eyes that don't need it, it becomes a problem. If you don't do it when necessary Double eyelids alone may not produce the desired impression. Eyelid surgery can be problematic when done excessively, but it can also be a valuable option when necessary. 7️⃣ To summarize Eye correction Not a cure for the disease Beauty Selection and Pupil exposure and desired eye size According to It depends on whether you need it or not. What's important is It's not "You absolutely must do it / You absolutely must not do it" Accurately distinguish between your own eye condition and your expectations no see.

Liposuction is often perceived as a “quick way to lose weight,” but In reality, it is an invasive procedure with high surgical difficulty and risk. Especially since this surgery is performed without the doctor being able to see the inside with his/her own eyes, The experience and skill of the surgeon have a great influence on the outcome and safety. So, it is important to understand the ‘safety conditions’ of liposuction before considering its effectiveness. What is Liposuction? (Definition) Liposuction is Insert a cannula (long tube) through a thin hole. Subcutaneous fat Suction and removal with negative pressure It is a surgery. The cannula tip is designed to be blunt. Designed to avoid directly stabbing the organs A structure in which fat is sucked out through a small hole at the end The principle itself is simple, The surgical environment is never simple. Why Liposuction Can Be Risky (Principles + Limitations) Surgery without securing a field of vision Most plastic surgeries are performed while observing the patient in person. Liposuction is performed without the inner skin being visible. As a result, it relies heavily on experience and senses. If you are not skilled This may increase the risk of muscle damage and organ damage. Abdominal liposuction in particular is high risk. The abdomen is an area where the cannula must be moved repeatedly in a short period of time. If you lack skill or pierce the muscle There is a possibility that it may stimulate internal organs. In fact, there have been reports of accidents occurring in situations where non-specialists are present. In cases where the liposuction effect is relatively good Liposuction does not work equally well on all body types. If the following conditions are met simultaneously, The line improvement effect tends to be significant. ✅ If your skin has good elasticity ✅ If you don't have much muscle mass ✅ If you have sufficient subcutaneous fat on the other way, muscular body type A body type that has been active a lot In case of, Even if you remove the fat The change in thickness may not feel significant. Conditions to consider for safe liposuction ✔ Precautions when removing large amounts of fat Than the fat itself Blood and body fluids that flow out together This variable In this process, managing the overall condition is important. ✔ Key criteria to check Whether the surgeon is experienced enough Is it a structure managed jointly by an anesthesiologist?

Misconceptions about liposuction and weight loss ❓ If I lose a lot of weight, will I also lose a lot of weight? When 5,000cc of fat is removed Weight loss is about 2~3kg level Fat has a lower specific gravity than water Weight change is not as big as you might think Liposuction is Not a surgery for weight loss purposes It is necessary to understand. What happens if you yo-yo after liposuction? Yo-yo effect does not occur easily in suction areas where the number of fat cells has decreased. Instead, fat may accumulate in other areas that were not treated. actually After full body liposuction Case of concentrated fat on the back of the hand There is also. If you're considering liposuction, setting goals is important. What can be removed with liposuction? Limited to subcutaneous fat It will work. Visceral fat ❌ Intramuscular fat ❌ thus, Line organization Improved thickness of the area When approaching with the goal The satisfaction level is relatively high. And after the surgery Exercise and diet management They must be done in parallel. Summary at a glance 🟢 Liposuction is not an easy diet method. 🟢 Surgery with no visible field of view → Experience of the surgeon is important 🟢 Effects vary depending on body type and skin elasticity. 🟢 Suitable for improving body lines rather than losing weight 🟢 Without post-operative care, fat may increase in other areas.
캐시닥 운영진26.01.22Views 86Likes 0 Summary of the differences and selection criteria for sub-eyelid fat repositioning, lower eyelid surgery, and mid-face lower eyelid lift surgery.
The area under the eyes is affected by fat, skin, muscles, and the midface at the same time. Although it may appear that “the area under the eyes is bulging or saggy,” the appropriate surgery will vary depending on where and how it has changed. This distinction is important because choosing the wrong surgery for your condition can lead to reoperation and changes in your appearance. Below, we will organize the procedures in order: lower eyelid fat repositioning → lower eyelid surgery → mid-face lower eyelid lift. Undereye fat repositioning surgery ✔ Definition This is a surgery to reposition the fat that has protruded through the conjunctiva on the inside of the eye downward. It is performed without making an incision on the outer skin. ✔ Principle Rather than removing the bulging fat under the eyes, just move its location. This is an approach to alleviating under-eye bags. It is characterized by not incising the orbicularis oculi muscle (the muscle that closes the eye). ✔ Considered in these cases When soft tissue and muscle tone are well maintained If there is little sagging of the skin under the eyes ⚠ Cases requiring attention If the eye area is already sunken → Over time, the sunken area above the eyes may become more prominent after fat redistribution. If the mid-face volume is originally good → When only the fat is moved/removed, the boundary may be more emphasized. A face shape with a prominent cheekbone and furrows → The rearrangement may actually feel unnatural. 📦 Summary This is a surgery that is carefully considered in “a relatively early stage when the tissue elasticity is good and there is no sagging.” Lower eyelid plastic surgery ✔ Definition Make an incision under the eyelashes This is a surgery that removes fat under the eyes and corrects sagging skin. ✔ Principle Sagging and fat problems concentrated under the eyes are corrected within the lower eyelid area. It treats skin, fat, and supporting structures simultaneously. ✔ Considered in these cases The skin under the eyes is stretched, but If mid-face sagging is not severe ⚠ Limitations If the boundary between the lower eyelid and the midface itself has descended, → Even if only the lower eyelid is corrected, the change in youthfulness may be limited. In cases where midface changes are significant, single surgery may not be recommended. 📦 Summary Suitable for “those with sagging under the eyes but no significant changes in the mid-face.” Midfacial lower eyelid lift ✔ Definition Expand the lower eyelid incision to access the midface. This is a surgery that lifts the mid-face fat layer upwards along with fat treatment. ✔ Principle It's not just about cleaning up the under-eye area, Lower eyelid – An approach that lifts the mid-face border upward. ✔ Considered in these cases When the border between the lower eyelid and midface is significantly lowered Cases of revision surgery that did not leave a youthful appearance even after previous under-eye surgery In cases where mid-face sagging occurs quickly due to contouring surgery, etc. When accompanied by ectropion (inversion of the eyelid) ⚠ Considerations Together Simply lifting the sagging structure may not be enough. → A complex approach, including space supplementation and muscle support, is discussed. 📦 Summary This is an extended surgery considered in cases where “there is a clear change in the boundary between the lower eyelid and mid-face.” Complex Aging: Why Is It So Difficult to Make Simple Choices? Just because the midface is sagging, it doesn't mean that it can be solved with just a facelift. If you don't consider the space and support issues that arise while lifting, The results may be awkward. So in reality Adjusting the location of the province Mid-face elevation Orbicularis oculi muscle support Approaches to combining the backs according to the condition are discussed. Summary at a glance division Core criteria Under-eye fat repositioning Initial state with good elasticity and no sagging Lower eyelid surgery Focused on sagging under the eyes, little change in the mid-face Midface lower eyelid lift Accompanied by sagging margins, reoperation, and midface deformation Final Guide These three surgeries are not a matter of superiority or inferiority, but rather a matter of ‘differences in indications.’ When looking at under eye problems Bulging → Off → Border → Looking at the midface together It is important to understand which approach is right for your situation.

When it comes to double eyelid surgery, the results are greatly influenced by ‘management of the recovery process’ rather than the surgery itself. Even if you undergo the same surgery, swelling, bruising, recovery speed, and satisfaction may vary depending on how well you follow the steaming, ointment, medication, and precautions. We've compiled a list of helpful management tips for the first week after surgery. Based on the instructions for hot packs, ointments, and medications provided at the hospital, we focused on how to manage it at home. Key components of post-operative care after double eyelid surgery The flow of management can be easily understood through the four points below. 🧊 poultice : The key to managing swelling and bruising 🧴 ointment : Wound protection + recovery assistance 💊 Taking medication : For the purpose of preventing swelling 📄 caution : Minimum conditions to avoid spoiling the results Even if the surgery goes well, if this process is disrupted, recovery may be delayed.

Pay just as much attention to the recovery process as you do to the surgery itself. This difference will make a difference in the final outcome.
캐시닥 운영진26.01.18Views 438Likes 0 3 Real Reasons Why Facelift Surgery Results Sag Quickly – Why the "80-90% Lifting Principle" Matters[1]
Facelifts are actually one of the procedures where the most 궁금한 (curious) aspect is when and to what extent sagging occurs. In particular, the concern “Why do I look like I’m sagging so quickly?” is mostly Patient factors + surgical factors interact in combination This is the result. I have compiled the following information regarding facelift surgery that you may be curious about. The key reason for re-sagging Most stable pull level (80~90%) The adverse effect of excessive pulling 3 Factors Causing Facelift Effects to Sag Quickly ▶ ① Changes in facial heaviness and skin elasticity Face weight and skin elasticity vary from person to person. Frequent injections into the face after surgery can increase weight and accelerate sagging. ▶ ② Changes in health status If facial fat decreases due to deteriorating health, the loss of volume can make it look like sagging. ▶ ③ Doctor's 'excessive pulling' The expectation that “the harder you pull, the longer it lasts” actually backfires 100% tension that does not account for natural movement may cause the middle to become loose or uneven. Both patient and doctor factors work together, and the duration of maintenance varies from person to person, making it difficult to make a uniform judgment. Why is the most appropriate tension level '80~90%'? ✔ A range that ensures both naturalness and longevity If you pull too hard (100%), it is taut at first, but over time, rather Loosening of the center or an awkward expression This could be A pull with about 80~90% leeway It is a realistic choice that takes facial movements into account. To easily understand the principle, let's think about the elasticity of a rubber band! 📌 When a loose rubber band is pulled 80–90% It still retains its elasticity, so it can maintain its shape even when moved. 📌 When the rubber band is pulled 100% It has almost lost its elasticity, so it may loosen or stretch immediately if moved. Since the face is also a constantly moving tissue, excessive tension can be disadvantageous in the long run. Precautions to Minimize Re-sagging ✔ 1) Beware of factors contributing to facial weight gain Frequent injection of substances into the face after a procedure leads to increased weight → increased risk of sagging ✔ 2) Volume decrease due to weight change If you lose weight in your cheeks due to deteriorating health or other factors, they may appear saggy. ✔ 3) Avoid excessive pulling demands Saying “Please pull harder” can ultimately reduce both the natural look and the duration of the effect. It is difficult to simply say that the effects of a facelift last for 'a few years'. The patient's skin condition, weight, changes in health, and the degree of tension during surgery all work together. The two most important principles are as follows. 80–90% tension is the most appropriate range for both naturalness and retention. Patient factors (weight, elasticity, health) and excessive pulling are the main causes of re-sagging.

There are cases where you feel that way. You might be more surprised when the actual result differs from your expectations, even though the bone lines looked nicely defined on the CT scan. This This is because simply making the 'bones' pretty does not complete the overall facial contour. no see. today The reason why a double chin remains even after facial contouring surgery , and I will explain how the correction is performed. 1. Why can a double chin remain even after facial contouring surgery? yo. this? This is because just because the bone is reduced does not mean the tissues above it shrink along with it. . facial contouring surgery Dealt with in Chin and square jaw It is the deepest layer of the face, that is, the 'bone structure'. However, on top of that, there are layers of soft tissue, including skin, fat, muscle, connective tissue, and salivary glands. Therefore, even if the bone is reduced, if the tissue above it does not shrink at the same rate, the expected changes may not be visible, or the double chin may actually appear more prominent. especially, Square jaw reduction Masseter muscle resection cortical bone resection Chin T-osteotomy / S-osteotomy / Chin reduction, etc. As most of the process is proceeding in the direction of 'reduction,' For those with thick soft tissue, the relative volume may be more prominent. There is.🔹 In other words, facial contouring surgery is a 'bone-shaping operation,' and a double chin can only be fully corrected by considering 'soft tissue issues' as well. 2. What are the main causes of a double chin developing or worsening after facial contouring surgery? 🎯Typically, three structural factors are at play. all. 1. Loss of the digastric muscle Chin reduction process In some surgical procedures, the digastric muscle may be separated from the bone. In this case, the muscles may sag and bunch up, making it look like a double chin. Therefore, in the case of revision surgery Re-fixing the digastric muscle + fat adjustment This is considered together. 2. Submandibular gland protrusion After square jaw surgery , The salivary glands, which were previously covered by the jawbone, may become exposed and reveal their outer contours. So, it looks smooth on the CT scan, but it may appear bumpy in the mirror. In this case, correction may be difficult with simple Botox treatment alone, and Situations requiring actual surgical reduction or partial resection This may occur. (A specialist's evaluation is mandatory to determine the treatment method.) 3. Subplatysmal fat accumulation If you reduce the jawbone The space shrinks, and the fat underneath may appear compressed and clumped together. This fat cannot be resolved with conventional liposuction alone, and Removal after precise layer separation via submandibular access It is important. (Removed submandibular gland, digastric muscle, internal fat) 3. How can these problems be solved? 🎯 Multi-layer access is possible with only a 2–3cm incision under the chin. . Fortunately, most problems like the above Correction is possible with only a 2-3cm incision under the chin. do. With a single incision, ✔ Removal of submuscular fat ✔ Re-fixation of the digastric muscle ✔ Submandibular gland reduction You can proceed with both simultaneously. Surgery that addresses problems that cannot be solved by simple liposuction, like this, is 'Submental rejuvenation' perspective Access is required from. thus Double chin surgery You must also consider the following structure. fat under the muscle Digastric muscle axillary sinus These three elements must be accurately assessed and included in the treatment plan. The “beautiful jawline” seen in the CT scan is naturally realized on the actual face. 4. What is the recovery process like? ? 1~2 weeks : Swelling, tightness, discomfort 1~3 months : Organizational stabilization phase 3~6 months : Final outline refinement stage Although there are individual differences, initial discomfort tends to subside relatively quickly, and The final line takes a sufficient recovery period to settle naturally. FAQ ❓ Q1. How long does the recovery take? A1. Initial swelling and discomfort usually subside within a few weeks, and tissue stabilization proceeds over several months, although this varies from person to person. Q2. Are there possible side effects from double chin surgery? A2. Since sensory changes, changes in saliva secretion, persistent swelling, inflammation, and nerve-related discomfort may occur, it is essential to consult a specialist and undergo a preliminary evaluation. Q3. What is the difference from a neck lift? A3. Neck lifts focus on improving overall neck sagging and wrinkles, and double chin surgery is Center for improving the central area below the chin and the jawline There is a difference in that. Which method is suitable Identifying the cause is the most important thing. Conclusion 🧾 Contouring surgery is a powerful bone correction method, but, If soft tissue issues are not addressed when completing the contours, it may leave something to be desired. Reasons why a double chin remains visible after facial contouring surgery is not simple fat, ✔ Muscle ✔ Salivary glands ✔ Fat under the muscle This is because various factors interact in a complex way. The important thing is, It is an “accurate diagnosis of why this phenomenon occurred,” and Selecting the appropriate treatment method based on the results is the safest and most effective approach. If the discomfort persists, consult thoroughly with a medical professional.

The process of accurately identifying and resolving the cause of the problem in the first surgery This must go together. When can I get rhinoplasty? In general After the organization stabilized I like to proceed. 🕓 Commonly discussed criteria If it's a simple plastic surgery, it can be done relatively quickly. But most of them Recommended after about 6 months It often happens The reason is ✔️ Swelling goes down ✔️ Internal organization is in place Because it allows for a more accurate condition assessment. This is how the post-surgery recovery process goes. Post-operative care also has a major impact on the results. 📅 Day 1 Disinfection in progress Remove gauze/packing Concurrent antibiotic treatment 📅 Day 2–3 Simple disinfection & progress check 📅 Around the 10th day Suture removal + splint removal 📅 About a month later The concept of revisiting the process of settling down 👉 It is easier to understand if you think of it as “a step to check whether the condition is well maintained.” In what cases is rhinoplasty necessary? In the following situations, reoperation is often considered. When the implant is prominent and the 'surgical scar' is severe If inflammation recurs If the bridge or tip of the nose appears thin or red If the nose is shortened or raised due to construction If you feel like the implant is bending or moving If you are simply not satisfied with the shape especially Reoperation due to implant problems If so, It requires a process of accurately identifying the cause, eliminating it, and then redesigning. So, it's good to keep in mind that the method may vary depending on the case. . Rhinoplasty is It is not a light decision of “I’ll do it again”, A choice that requires consideration of the organization's condition, the cause of the problem, and the possibility of recovery. are you. Whether the organization is stable Are there any risk factors such as inflammation or contracture? Is it really necessary to have surgery? It's best to take your time and carefully consider the choice that's right for you. Ultimately, I think it's safest to make decisions based on your individual circumstances and standards.

If one side of the eyelid line becomes blurred or loose after some time has passed since double eyelid surgery, Most people think, “Can I just have a revision surgery on one side?” Although it may seem on the surface that the problem is only on one side, In reality In many cases, the balance, clarity, and shape changes of both eyes must be considered together. ⚠️ Why can't we just look at it as a 'one-sided problem'? Double eyelids look natural when both sides are in harmony. As time goes by Even the “side that appears to be unraveled” is less clear than before. There are quite a lot. So, it is important to objectively check the actual condition, and if you simply approach it by 'solving only the visible problems', The difference in feeling between left and right may become greater. Unilateral revision surgery: "It's possible, but conditions matter." To conclude, There are certainly cases where only one side can be reoperated. But this doesn't apply in all cases. In particular, reoperation must be considered in conjunction with the tissue condition, degree of recovery, and cause of loosening. If you rush into it without sufficient recovery, the burden may increase. The options are usually divided like this: ✔ Reoperation on only one side → If only one side is clearly resolved and there is little change on the other side ✔ simultaneous correction of both sides → If one side is clearly loosened, but the other side also has a different clarity, thickness, and line feel ✔ Observation → If there is a suspicion that the recovery process will be affected by swelling, adhesion, or scarring ✔ Reevaluation after recovery → If sufficient recovery period has not yet passed When it comes to reoperation, why is 'time' important? In general, reoperation is After sufficient tissue recovery It is often reviewed. If you repeat the surgery while you are not recovering, 👉 Line instability 👉 Scar burden 👉 Possibility of asymmetry Because it can grow. Ultimately, the key criterion is “this” What is important when only one side of the double eyelid is loosened is, Distinguishing between a one-sided problem and a two-sided balance problem no see. 📌 What is most inconvenient for me? 📌 What has changed compared to the first time? 📌 Have there been any changes over time?

What are the types of nasal diseases, and when should surgery be considered? 🌿 When nasal congestion, runny nose, and sneezing recur due to rhinitis, etc. Representative nasal diseases include rhinitis There is. Rhinitis is a disease in which inflammation occurs inside the nose (nasal cavity). Generally, it can be identified by the following symptoms. ✔️ Nasal congestion ✔️ Runny nose ✔️ Sneezing Many people try drug treatment first, but There are many cases where the discomfort returns only after the symptoms improve while taking medication. If the symptoms are severe or cause significant inconvenience in daily life, In some cases, improvement can be expected through surgical treatment. What types of nasal surgery are there? The following are representative nasal surgery procedures that can be considered in conjunction with functional rhinoplasty. 🔹 deviated nasal septum With the nasal septum cartilage supporting the center of the nose bent, It can cause functional disorders such as nasal congestion, rhinitis, and sinusitis. also The nose may look crooked from the outside. there is. The surgery Correcting bent cartilage and bones and reinforcing the support structure so We use a method that improves both function and appearance. 🔹 inferior turbinate hypertrophy The inferior turbinate is an important structure that purifies and regulates the air inside the nose, If this tissue grows abnormally large Inflammation, increased runny nose, and mucosal edema occur It can also be linked to rhinitis, sinusitis, etc. In this case Resection of excessive tissue of the inferior turbinate Therefore, surgery to create space may be considered. 🔹 Nasal valve stenosis The narrow space at the upper part of the nose is blocked A problem that can cause difficulty breathing and lead to sleep disorders no see. There are many cases where it is difficult to confirm with the naked eye. Identify the cause through precise examinations such as 3D-CT, and The surgery may proceed in a way that widens the space to aid breathing. Why is it beneficial to combine cosmetic and functional rhinoplasty? 🌿 Satisfying appearance + a nose that allows for easy breathing at the same time Actually, the patient planned rhinoplasty for cosmetic reasons, but functional problems were also identified during the examination, so two surgeries were performed. proceeding simultaneously The number of such cases is increasing. Many people I'm satisfied with the shape, but what if it's hard to breathe?

What is the role of an otolaryngologist in functional diagnosis and subsequent management? 🌿 Accurate identification of the cause + customized surgery + post-operative function verification ENT specialist It is responsible for accurately identifying the anatomical structure and functional problems of the nose and designing a surgery tailored to the patient's condition. ✔️ Explain functional problems and causes to the patient in an easy-to-understand way ✔️ Check individual cartilage condition and internal structure ✔️ Customized surgery ✔️ Check for functional improvement after surgery In addition, the better the collaborative system is established, the better one can expect results that satisfy both form and function simultaneously. FAQ 💬 Q1. Is it mandatory to have functional rhinoplasty performed at a collaborating hospital? A1. Since there are often cases where both cosmetic purposes and functional improvement are required, It is helpful to choose a hospital where plastic surgery and otolaryngology departments can collaborate to plan treatments and surgeries. Q2. Are there cases where drug treatment alone is not sufficient? A2. Some nasal conditions, such as rhinitis, may improve only with medication and then become uncomfortable again. If symptoms are severe and functional discomfort is significant, surgical methods may be discussed. Q3. Is functional rhinoplasty different from simple cosmetic rhinoplasty? A3.

hello, 3D Plastic Surgery at surgery during doing Director Heo Jae-won, a board-certified plastic surgeon no see. There is a phrase I hear most often in the doctor's office these days. I've been getting thread lifts every one or two years, but now it seems like they have almost no effect. And the question that follows, “I have had thread lifts multiple times; is a facelift still possible?” If you have undergone repeated thread lifting, you will face this dilemma at least once. today Why a facelift can become more complicated after a thread lift cast, Cases confirmed in actual clinical practice and international academic journals Aesthetic Plastic Surgery published in (2025) Dr. Yordan P. Yordanov's Research paper I will explain focusing on... 1. What type of lifting procedure is thread lifting? 🎯 Thread lifting is It is a non-surgical lifting procedure that physically pulls the skin using threads beneath the skin. 🔹 Thread lifting involves inserting absorbable threads under the skin. A method that pulls up sagging areas no see. 🔹 You may feel that your jawline or nasolabial folds have lifted immediately after the procedure. Immediate change I feel that this is an advantage. The reason for choosing thread lifting usually starts with the following. “ Major surgery is a burden When you want just a light lift “ Whenever I feel my face sagging Cases where non-surgical methods are repeatedly selected 2. Why do changes occur in internal tissues with repeated thread lifting? 🎯Thread lifting Even after the thread is gone, traces of the tissue can remain. 🔸 Absorbable threads (PDO, PLLA, PCL, etc.) used in thread lifting dissolve over time. 🔸 However, in this process Stimulates collagen production It becomes, and that position Fibrotic tissue It can be changed to. 👉 How these changes actually manifest has been confirmed through research. Dr. Yordanov during 2021–2023 History of receiving thread lifting On 10 patients (average age 59) with Facelift surgery We directly observed the internal tissue condition while performing the procedure. in result, The following common changes were identified in all patients. ✔️ The area where the thread was inserted hardening ✔️ Skin, subcutaneous fat, and SMAS layer Adhesion that sticks together ✔️ Anatomically important layer Reduced mobility ✔️ Increase in surgery time : Difficult to peel off skin layer and increased bleeding in other words, Even if the thread melts, organizational change can remain. The key point is this. 3. How do these tissue changes affect facelift surgery? 🎯 The surgical process may become more difficult. 🔹 Facelift surgery involves the process of dissecting and trimming the tissue beneath the skin. However, after thread lifting In cases where fibrosis or adhesions are present , → Organizational separation becomes difficult and → Anatomical differentiation may become difficult during surgery. ✨ A point commonly confirmed in research papers is, “ Thread lifting is Changes that remain in an organization last longer than temporary effects. .” “ thread lifting After Facelift is It becomes much more anatomically complex. .” in other words , repetitive thread lifting silver Later surgery Making it difficult 'viewless evidence' second It means leaving something behind. . 4. In that case, is a facelift impossible if I have had a thread lift? 🎯 That is not the case. However, 'information sharing' is important. ✔️ Just because you have had thread lifting multiple times It is not impossible to have a facelift. ✔️ I also frequently encounter patients who undergo surgery after thread lifting while primarily performing facelifts. It is very rare for someone to choose a facelift from the start without ever having tried thread lifting. Looking at actual surgical cases, traces of previously inserted lifting threads are visible in 1 out of 3 cases. However, Information that must be provided before surgery There is. 🔸 Timing of the procedure 🔸 Treatment area 🔸 Types of yarn used 🔸 Number of treatments ⚠️ You need this information, → Avoid unexpected adhesions during surgery and → See Safe surgery plan You can set it up. 5. How does thread lifting compare to other procedures? 🎯 Not all procedures have the same effect. 🔹 From a clinical perspective, Collagen stimulants (Juvelux, etc.) Fat grafting and liposuction Specific volume control procedures (AccuSculp, etc.) In some cases, this actually makes the surgery more complicated. ✨ Compared to this, The traces of lifting threads are relatively easy to clean up. There are also many cases that fall under this category. What matters is not 'what procedure was performed,' but 'how accurately it is shared with the medical staff.' FAQ ❓ Q1. What causes the effects of thread lifting to wear off quickly? A1. Since thread lifting is not a surgery that fundamentally rearranges the structure, the lifting effect may diminish over time. In some cases, the perceived effect may last longer when combined with other procedures. Q2. I am considering a face lift. Which would be the better choice, thread lifting or a facelift? A2. It depends on the degree of sagging and the expected results. Non-surgical methods may be considered more suitable for mild sagging, while surgical methods may be more appropriate for moderate to severe sagging. Q3. When can I return to my daily life after a facelift? I am curious about the recovery period. A3. Initially, there is swelling and tightness, but it gradually stabilizes after a certain period. The speed of recovery may vary depending on individual conditions. Conclusion 🧾 Thread lifting is simple, but, Internal organizational changes may remain upon repetition. This change subsequently led to a facelift surgery Factors that make it more delicate This can be ✔️ However, this does not mean that surgery becomes impossible, Sharing accurate procedure history is key. no see. ✨ Rather than choosing blindly, Check current condition and past procedure history together do Consult thoroughly with a specialist The direction that suits me It is important to find it. 3D Plastic Surgery Director Heo Jae-won Graduated from Yonsei University College of Medicine Master of Medicine, Yonsei University Graduate School Severance Hospital Plastic Surgeon 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 Oculoplastic Surgery Research Group of the Korean Society of Plastic and Reconstructive Surgeons Regular member of the Rhinoplasty Research Group of the Korean Society of Plastic and Reconstructive Surgeons Regular member of the Anti-Aging Plastic Surgery Research Group of the Korean Society of Plastic and Reconstructive Surgeons Regular member of the Liposuction Research Group of the Korean Society of Plastic and Reconstructive Surgeons Regular member of the Laser Plastic Surgery Research Group of the Korean Society of Plastic and Reconstructive Surgeons Regular member of the Botox, Filler, and Thread Lifting Research Group of the Korean Society of Plastic and Reconstructive Surgeons Current Director of Ipse Plastic Surgery Clinic 10 years of experience specializing in lifting procedures 👉 Curious about Dr. Jae-Won Heo's facelift surgery at Ipche Plastic Surgery?

Cheekbone reduction surgery The bone is cut to reduce the “front cheekbone.” At this time, after cutting the bone, The severed front and back bones must reattach to each other. do. Cheekbone reduction surgery The area that is frequently resected is commonly called the '45° cheekbone line'. Around here Nerve responsible for sensation around the eyes It is located here ( Blue circle in the picture below ), In the past, a method of resecting this area along with the rest was often used. (CT scan of cheekbone reduction surgery) In this case, 🔸 dullness of sensation around the eyes 🔸 Reduced distance of the back cheekbone → Nonunion (a condition where bones do not fuse well) generation 🔸 If the bone does not fuse properly, covering it The skin appears to be sagging as the foundation has weakened. 🔸 The sinuses are widely exposed Increased risk of sinusitis Problems such as the following may occur. Recently, the amount of cheekbone removal has been reduced Method of rotating backwards ( cheekbone rotation surgery : Simply put, it involves changing the direction of the cut bone and reattaching it. ) It is widely chosen in terms of safety and preference. Square jaw surgery, 'Will my face look slimmer if I cut off as much as possible?' 📌 The most important thing in square jaw surgery is that the area below the nerve line is the safety baseline; removing more than that carries a risk of sensory damage. Below the square jaw area In Nerve line responsible for sensation in the lower jaw (The red line in the figure below) passes by. In a normal procedure, this nerve line (Red line) The safety standard is to perform the osteotomy with sufficient clearance below. no see. (Square jaw surgery CT scan) The problem is, Please make it look smaller. Please cut off as much as possible. With a request like that There were cases where the nerve line was resected up to the upper part. The point is. The possible results in this case are as follows: ⚠️ Loss of sensation (may be permanent) ⚠️ Numbness around the lower lip and jaw: No sensation even when drooling or food spills ⚠️ Possibility of changes in mouth shape and decreased motor function thus square jaw surgery silver Surgery where nerve protection takes precedence over the amount of tissue removed It is important to understand that point. Chin Surgery: The Truth About 'Severe Reduction Makes the Face Slimmer?' 📌Chin surgery If the amount of resection increases Risk of nerve damage and bone resorption This can increase. A standard chin osteotomy is performed below the nerve line (red line in the figure below). (CT scan of chin surgery) However, if the position where the bone is cut is raised to shorten the jaw length, like in square jaw surgery Effect on sensory nerves You can give. Also, due to excessive restraint 🔸 Remaining bone surface area decreases 🔸 Cases where the bone is absorbed and the shape collapses afterwards It is also observed. in other words, If you look only at short-term results, it may look slimmer, but As time goes by The opposite result, where the outline collapses, may occur. You should keep in mind that point. FAQ 🙋♀️🙋♂️ Q1. What kind of facial contouring surgery should I get if my face looks wide? A1. If the cheekbone line appears wide, consider the cheekbones and square jaw together. There are many cases where this happens. From the side In cases where the jawline is long, a method of reducing the chin area as well. This is also utilized. However, since the resection amount is determined based on the individual's skeletal range, an actual CT-based evaluation is required during the consultation. Q2. Is it possible to request that the bone be shaved down to a desired amount during facial contouring surgery? A2. Bone is not sculpted as freely as clay. cheekbone thickness, nerve location, bone joint range, etc. Each has an average limit. Therefore, the patient's goals and the actual possible scope of surgery may not be the same. Q3. How long does the recovery period take for facial contouring surgery? A3. Generally Significant swelling lasts for up to about two weeks. It generally subsides, but residual swelling may persist for a longer period. The average recovery time is Gradual changes over several weeks You will expect a flow that goes through. conclusion facial contouring surgery It does not simply lead to “the more you delete, the better the result.” ✔ Excessive bone removal may result in sensory issues. ✔ Sagging, absorption, or nonunion may occur after recovery. ✔ More than the removal range Preservation of a safe structure increases long-term satisfaction Therefore, rather than “as much as possible” “Within face shape and safety range” Design the outline The approach of doing so is more suitable. Before making a final decision, be sure to consult during the consultation, CT check, Nerve line location, Resectable range, Prediction results Please take the time to receive guidance on this together. 3D Plastic Surgery Chief Director Cho Hyun-woo Graduated from Yonsei University College of Medicine Master of Medicine, Yonsei University Graduate School Severance Hospital Plastic Surgeon Visiting Professor, Department of Plastic Surgery, Severance Hospital Regular member of the Korean Society of Plastic and Reconstructive Surgeons Korean Society of Aesthetic Plastic Surgery Regular member Korean Society of Craniofacial Plastic Surgery Regular member International Society of Plastic Surgeons (ISAPS) member Regular member of the Korean Society of Surgery on the Hand Korean Association of Plastic Surgeons Regular member Secretary General of the Minimally Invasive Plastic Surgery Research Society Current Chief Director of Ipche Plastic Surgery Clinic Experience specializing in facial contouring 21 year 👉 Interested in Dr. Jo Hyun-woo's facial contouring surgery?
