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?

최순우 원장26.06.2395 views3 likesNasal congestion treatment and rhinoplasty at the same time? From the effects of functional rhinoplasty to key information![2]
Hello! I am an ENT specialist at View Plastic Surgery. Director Go Eun-seok no see. Many of you have probably suffered from sleepless nights due to chronic rhinitis or nasal congestion of unknown origin, haven't you? If nasal congestion persists even after taking medication, this is not a simple problem. It is highly likely that this is because the internal structure of the nose has been deformed. If you are suffering from stuffy noses along with concerns about your appearance, such as a hooked nose, a deviated nose, or a flat nose, I will introduce today Functional rhinoplasty This can be a very excellent answer. From now on, I will explain in an easy-to-understand manner the key information for simultaneously correcting both the inside (function) and the outside (aesthetics) of the nose. 1️⃣ Am I a patient with a nasal disease? 💌 Minor symptoms in daily life are actually Deformation of the internal structure of the nose It could be a sign of a disease caused by. Please take a quick look at the items below to see if any of the symptoms apply to you! 🟩 I frequently experience nasal congestion even though I don't have a cold. 🟩 I breathe through my mouth unconsciously when I breathe (mouth breathing) 🟩 Frequent runny nose with clear discharge or frequent sneezing 🟩 I often hear people around me say that I snore heavily. 🟩 My concentration often drops because of difficulty breathing. 🟩 Persistent chronic headaches (migraines) of unknown cause 🟩 At some point, I started having trouble smelling. 2️⃣ What is the inside of the nose like that it gets blocked? 💌 The internal structural causes of nasal congestion are broadly divided into 3 types It is divided into categories, and precise surgical methods tailored to each are required. 📍 1. What if the pillar inside the nose is bent? → deviated nasal septum Causes and Symptoms: It is a condition in which the 'nasal septum,' a bone and cartilage partition that neatly divides the inside of the nose into left and right sides, bends like a bow to one side, blocking the airway. It is the main culprit causing severe blockage in only one nostril, as well as chronic headaches and sinusitis. Surgical method: It straightens the deviated and bent nasal septum cartilage and neatly cuts away any excess cartilage that obstructs smooth breathing. ✨ Cosmetic Surgery Linkage Points: At this time, safely collected during the disease treatment process Septal cartilage It is the safest and best natural implant material that naturally and beautifully raises the tip of the nose. 📍 2. What if the tissue inside the nose swells up and blocks the airway? → inferior turbinate resection (Hypertrophic rhinitis) Causes and Symptoms: This is a condition in which the nasal mucosa (inferior turbinates) becomes abnormally thickened due to allergies or chronic inflammation, severely obstructing the flow of air. You cannot shake the persistent feeling that your nose is stuffy and blocked. Surgical method: Using a precision high-frequency device, it shrinks hypertrophied mucous membranes back to their normal size, restoring comfortable breathing. ✨ Surgery effects: Immediately after surgery, you can instantly feel cool and fresh air entering through your nose. 📍 3. What if the roof of your nose (ceiling) has narrowed and feels stuffy? → Nasal valve reconstruction Causes and Symptoms: The 'nasal valve,' a very narrow space located at the top of the inside of the nose, acts as a very important valve that regulates the flow and volume of air when we breathe. If this space is structurally too narrow or sagging, even trying to breathe just a little will cause the inside of your nose to stick together, making you feel extremely stuffy. Surgical method: It safely secures the structurally narrowed non-valve space to allow cool air to flow in and out, and expands it to a normal range. ✨ Surgery effects: It is highly effective in resolving chronic, deep nasal congestion that could not be resolved by cosmetic surgery that only raises the surface. 3️⃣ Do all rhinitis patients necessarily need surgery? 💌 Depending on the type of rhinitis and the individual's internal structural condition The direction of treatment changes completely. ⚠️ There is a point you must be aware of here! Since the 'allergic rhinitis' we commonly experience is a disease caused by our body's immune response, it is not a concept that guarantees a 100% cure simply by undergoing surgery. thus The process of thoroughly identifying the exact type and cause of the nasal condition I am currently suffering from is the top priority. It must be. A customized treatment plan must be applied based on each individual's internal nasal condition, the angle and degree of septal deviation, the swelling of the inferior turbinate mucosa, and history of previous surgery. Precise diagnosis by a specialist with extensive clinical experience It is essential to take the step of verifying whether the surgery is truly suitable for you. 💬 FAQ: Top 3 Most Frequently Asked Questions About Functional Rhinoplasty Q1. How much is covered by medical expense insurance? Surgeries such as deviated septum correction, nasal valve reconstruction, and chronic rhinitis surgery (inferior turbinate resection), which are for the treatment of diseases rather than for the purpose of simple cosmetic improvement, are usually... according to the terms and conditions of the indemnity medical insurance you have subscribed to. 80~100% reimbursement of actual expenses You can significantly reduce the burden by receiving this. (⚠️ However, since the specific refund rate may vary depending on the patient's exact diagnosis and the insurance product you have subscribed to, it is most accurate to check directly with the relevant insurance company based on the specialist's diagnosis results before surgery.) Q2. Should the surgery be performed at an ENT clinic or a plastic surgery clinic? The wisest and most satisfying choice is an ENT specialist and a plastic surgeon. Systematic collaborative treatment system It is to find this perfectly equipped hospital. The most ideal approach to minimize side effects and maximize satisfaction is an organic form where complex internal nasal structural conditions are treated accurately and safely by an ENT specialist, while the external design lines are handled exclusively by a plastic surgeon. Q3. I heard that people with deviated or hooked noses are required to get tested for nasal diseases. Why is that? This is because if you have a hooked nose structure where the nose is outwardly bent to one side or the bridge of the nose is bumpy and protruding, there is a very high probability that the bones and cartilage inside the nose are also bent along with the external shape. In other words, a crooked nose and a hooked nose are not merely aesthetic shortcomings, Structural 'signals' from the body indicating that the airway inside the nose is deformed, causing chronic nasal congestion, rhinitis, and sinusitis Because of this, before surgery 3D-CT A thorough internal disease examination through the back is essential. 🔸 Conclusion: Careful criteria for selecting a hospital to improve quality of life Functional rhinoplasty is not a general cosmetic surgery that simply raises the bridge of the nose to make it look pretty. The nose's most precious inherent function Comfortably regain 'clear breathing' to dramatically improve quality of life At the same time, it is a precise and complex surgery that completes a sophisticated appearance that suits you best. Therefore, to ensure satisfactory and safe results, you must carefully review the checklist below before selecting a hospital. ✔️ Since the inside and outside of the nose must be considered simultaneously, there is a wealth of experience in this surgery skilled medical staff impression? ✔️ Capable of accurately identifying the internal structure of the nose without error Advanced 3D-CT equipment Do you possess? ✔️ Seamless collaboration system between otolaryngologists and plastic surgeons Is this established? ✔️ You can undergo surgery with peace of mind Emergency response system and thorough safety management system Does it have? If the nasal congestion you are currently experiencing is causing significant discomfort in your daily life, we recommend that you start by visiting a hospital to have your nasal condition thoroughly examined, rather than deciding on surgery without careful consideration. We hope you find the healthy and beautiful solution that is perfect for you through sincere consultation with medical professionals. 🙏 Director Go Eun-seok of View Plastic Surgery ENT specialist Graduated from Yonsei University College of Medicine Regular member of the Korean Medical Association Regular member of the Korean Society of Otorhinolaryngology Regular member of the Korean Rhinological Society Regular member of the Korean Rhinological Society (KRS) Regular member of the Korean Academy of Facial Plastic and Reconstructive Surgery Full member of the American Academy of Facial Plastic and Reconstructive Surgeons (AAFPRS)

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

I had double eyelid surgery and fat repositioning under my eyes. There was some swelling in my face, so my skin looked tight and firm. ^^ I was considering facial fat grafting after that, and it reminded me that it has been 3 months since I had surgery with Dr. Lee Han-jung at A-Top Plastic Surg
