View moreI'm thinking about the average cost of upper eyelid surgery being 1 million won...![3]
Would 1 million won be enough for upper eyelid surgery? I was worried that if I just went to a plastic surgery clinic for consultation, it would be expensive. I'm trying to find an event and get some advice. I was wondering where to find a good event, There is a lot of information about the Cashdoc Hospital event. I searched very hard for information on the cost of upper eyelid surgery. I think the average is around 1 million won. Is this okay? Just in case, I considered the cost and reviews of upper eyelid surgery. I chose two places. If you know of a better place, recommendations are always welcome! For those of you who are curious about the two places I chose, I'll write it down below :) I hope this helps haha Me too mom I was looking into upper eyelid surgery. Berry Good Plastic Surgery Clinic charges 879,000 won for upper eyelid surgery. I understand that VAT is separate! My mom said I should go to a plastic surgeon. I asked what was going on. Then, due to aging, my eyelids continued to sag. He said that his eyelashes kept poking his eyes. I had no idea my mom had ever made tea. But when I think about how uncomfortable you were, my heart achesㅠㅠ https://cashdoc.me/hospitalevent/eventdetail/2090 Considering the cost of upper eyelid surgery, it seems okay since it is under 1 million won! Just in case, I looked for another plastic surgery clinic. The cost of upper eyelid surgery at Daum Plastic Surgery is 990,000 won. They say VAT and anesthesia fees are separate... In that case, the cost of upper eyelid surgery would be around 1.3 million won, right? The price range has definitely gone up a lot...haha... But I think the reason I chose Daum Plastic Surgery was because it had the most reviews. https://cashdoc.me/hospitalevent/eventdetail/1301 There are many reviews and middle-aged people It seems like this is the place that has performed the most upper eyelid surgeries. I think it's best to get it done by a director with a lot of surgical experience. I need to get advice from both places and then decide! Do you guys happen to know how much anesthesia costs? I don't know because I've never done anything like that ㅠㅠㅠ

How to Reduce Cost and Pain from Your Major Implant Surgery[3]
It is only natural to feel a sudden surge of fear when you receive an implant diagnosis during a dental check-up. After all, there are plenty of concerns, ranging from the long treatment period and hefty cost to the pain of surgery. In times like these, it is crucial to find a clinic specializing in implants through recommendations from acquaintances or reviews. If a place transparently discloses additional costs and administers anesthesia meticulously to minimize pain, even a timid person can successfully complete the procedure.
말해뭐해26.06.24Views 76Likes 2 For the breast surgery consultation at View Plastic Surgery Clinic, I was most worried about the pain and the cost.[20]
Hello. I was very worried about having small breasts, so I received a consultation for breast surgery at View Plastic Surgery. My biggest concern was the cost, and I was also very worried about the surgery process and post-operative pain. I chose View Plastic Surgery because it is huge and operates its own medical checkup center, so it feels trustworthy. Since it is a major surgery, I wanted to get a consultation at a safe place. I thought it would be safe because View Plastic Surgery is the number one hospital for the most breast surgeries, so they have a lot of experience. As expected, hearing about the cost during the consultation made me hesitate the most... I've been thinking about it a lot, but I'm also scared and wondering if I really need to spend a lot of money on surgery. But I'll be very satisfied after the surgery, right? ㅠㅠ I'm still hesitating even after the consultation...
머랭이26.06.11Views 141Likes 1 The Real Reason You Must Get a Forehead Lift Along with Upper Eyelid Surgery in Your 50s (Maximizing Before-and-After Difference)[6]
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?

View more[Health Column] Why Is the Cost of Implant Revision Surgery More Expensive Than the Initial One? The Real Reason Explained by a Dental Specialist[1]
hello! Lee Hyun-seop, Chief Director of Seoul Centum Dental Clinic no see. There are many people who expect that once they have implant surgery, they will be able to use them reliably for a lifetime or for a very long time. In fact, if you provide thorough after-sales service, there are many cases where you can use it stably for over 10 years without any issues. However, unfortunately, situations often arise where you face the cost of implant revision surgery due to a lack of aftercare or sudden gum inflammation. "I already spent a lot of money on surgery, do I have to do it again?", "Why is the cost of revision surgery higher than the first time?" My heart feels heavy whenever I receive questions from patients who are upset, saying things like that. So today, I will clearly explain, tailored to the patient's perspective, exactly why implant revision surgery costs arise and in what cases the cost difference is significant! 1. What are the main causes that lead to implant revision surgery? The main reasons for needing to re-implant an implant include peri-implantitis (inflammation of the surrounding gums), fracture of the prosthesis, and failure of initial fixation. 📌 The most common culprit, peri-implantitis The most common reason for deciding on revision surgery is peri-implantitis. Inflammation of the gums and bone surrounding the implant can lead to bone resorption, where the alveolar bone responsible for firmly supporting the implant erodes. Initially, it starts mildly with gum bleeding or slight swelling, but if left untreated, it eventually leads to the implant becoming severely loose. 📌 Damage to prosthetics and structures due to excessive force If you enjoy eating hard and chewy foods or if excessive force is continuously applied to the oral cavity, structural damage such as breakage of the prosthesis or loosening of internal screws may occur. If you visit a dentist early, this problem can be resolved relatively simply, but if you delay and neglect it for a long time, it will eventually lead to implant revision surgery, resulting in much higher costs. 📌 Initial fixation failure due to failure to properly fuse with bone Immediately after implant surgery, the process of 'osseointegration,' in which the gum bone and the implant firmly bond as one unit, is extremely important. However, there are cases where implants fail to properly anchor to the bone due to factors such as excessive smoking or drinking after surgery, failure to control diabetes, or insufficient initial post-operative care. 2. What are some abnormal implant symptoms that absolutely should not be overlooked? If you experience gum bleeding, looseness, food getting stuck, or feel looseness or discomfort when chewing, you should get a check-up promptly without delay. . If you feel any subtle changes or discomfort in your mouth, you must never dismiss it by assuming it will get better on its own. Whether initial response This is because it is the key factor determining the difference in the cost of implant revision surgery. 🔹 My gums keep bleeding every time I brush my teeth. 🔹 I feel like my implant tooth is slightly loose. 🔹 Food keeps getting stuck between my teeth more than before. 🔹 When chewing food with enjoyment, it feels inexplicably uncomfortable and aching. 🔹 I feel a slight looseness that is different from when the prosthesis was first placed. If you experience even one of the symptoms mentioned above, visiting a dentist promptly to check your condition is the wisest way to significantly reduce the difficulty of treatment and the cost of re-surgery. 3. Why is the cost of implant revision surgery more expensive than the initial surgery? This is because revision surgery is not simply about re-implanting the implant, but involves complex recovery treatments simultaneously, such as the removal of the existing implant, treatment of inflammation, and bone grafting. ! Many people ask, "Why is it more expensive than the first time when the dentist is just implanting it exactly the same way?" Implant revision surgery is by no means a simple process of just pulling it out and quickly re-implanting it. This is because the root cause of the problem with the existing implant must be accurately identified, the area damaged by inflammation restored to normal, and the re-implantation process must be repeated from the beginning. When actually performing the surgery Unlike the initial surgery, the following complicated treatment processes are added. 🔸 Removal of existing implants : The problematic existing fixture (artificial tooth root) already embedded in the gums must be cleanly removed. At this point, the difficulty varies widely depending on whether it simply pops out or requires surgical removal that involves cutting away the alveolar bone. 🔸 Treatment of surrounding inflammation : If the implant is filled with peri-implantitis, you must undergo treatment to completely scrape out the surrounding infected tissue and clean the area thoroughly. 🔸 Bone grafting and maxillary sinus lift : If the gum bone has already been severely lost due to inflammation, bone grafting or sinus lift surgery is essential to refill the bone and create a foundation for placing a new implant. 🔸 Re-implantation surgery and prosthetic remanufacturing : We re-implant a new implant into the firmly restored alveolar bone, and completely redesign and fabricate the abutment and crown to suit the patient's current oral condition. 💡 Implant Revision Surgery Cost Formula at a Glance [Surgical removal of existing implant + Treatment for inflammation and gum recovery + Advanced bone grafting + Re-implantation of new implant and fabrication of prosthesis] In the end, all of this Existing treatment + recovery treatment + retreatment Because the process involves complex steps performed simultaneously, the overall cost of the implant revision surgery is inevitably higher than the initial cost. 4. Is it true that the cost of revision surgery varies from person to person and that a complete removal might not be necessary? 🦷 🦷Yes, that is true! The cost varies depending on the extent of inflammation and bone loss, and we can reduce the financial burden by replacing only the upper components instead of extracting the entire bone. ! This is precisely why it is difficult to get a clear, fixed price even if you call a dental clinic out of the blue and ask, "How much does implant revision surgery cost?" The exact cost of revision surgery is as follows: Individual patient's oral environment and precise examination results This is because it varies completely depending on. Extent of inflammation and degree of alveolar bone (gum bone) loss Difficulty of removing existing implants Whether bone grafting and maxillary sinus lift are performed Number of implants requiring re-implantation Fortunately, not all patients necessarily have to undergo the terrifying surgery of digging out the entire thing and replanting it. Depending on the condition, treatment is neatly divided into two main directions. ✔️ Cases where only parts can be modified or replaced (relatively low burden) Fortunately, if the gum bone is very strong and there is a simple problem only with the upper prosthesis, an internal screw has loosened, or it is only slightly damaged, there is absolutely no need to extract the entire tooth. Since only some parts need to be simply repaired or replaced, the pain and cost burden are significantly reduced. ⚠️ Cases where full revision surgery is essential (somewhat high burden) If peri-implantitis has progressed severely, causing significant bone resorption in the surrounding area, or if the fixture itself within the gum bone is completely fractured and damaged, it is necessary to surgically remove the entire existing structure completely before proceeding with re-implantation, which increases both the difficulty and the cost. 5. What is the best management method to definitely reduce the cost of implant revision surgery? The most perfect way to save money is regular checkups every 6 months to 1 year, thorough follow-up care using dental floss and interdental brushes, and quitting smoking. The greatest secret to drastically reducing the cost of implant revision surgery and protecting your wallet is ultimately adhering to the basic principle of 'thorough initial care.' If you meticulously follow just the following three rules in your mouth, you can completely avoid the risk of revision surgery. ✨ Make regular dental checkups every 6 months to 1 year a part of your daily routine! You must never skip the regular check-up schedule provided by the dental clinic. If invisible, microscopic gum inflammation or loosening of dental prosthetics is detected early when they are still very small, you can avoid major re-surgery and prevent extensive treatment with simple measures, allowing you to enjoy a luxurious experience. ✨ Much more meticulous oral hygiene care than natural teeth! Since implant teeth do not have nerves, caring for the surrounding gums is much more important than for natural teeth. Since regular brushing alone cannot remove all the fine debris stuck in the crevices, you must carry a set of dental floss, interdental brushes, and water flossers (oral irrigators) to consistently and thoroughly clean every nook and cranny. ✨ Thoroughly manage smoking that slowly melts away your gum bone! Smoking is a terrifying culprit that drastically increases the frequency of peri-implantitis, which causes inflammation around implants, and explosively raises the risk of bone resorption, where the gum bone collapses. In particular, you must firmly avoid smoking, which is harmful in every way, immediately after implant surgery or during the sensitive initial settling period, in order to safely preserve the foundation of your precious teeth. FAQ Q1. If the gums around the implant bleed, do I absolutely have to have them all extracted and undergo re-surgery? ? A1. No! There is absolutely no need to be scared right from the start. In cases of early-stage periodontal inflammation characterized by bleeding gums, or simply loose screws or minor damage to the upper prosthesis, treatment is possible without the need to extract the entire tooth; only specific parts can be neatly modified or replaced, allowing for burden-free treatment. However, if the bone has already severely eroded, a full re-operation may be necessary, so it is important to undergo a thorough examination immediately upon discovery. Q2. Why does smoking after implant surgery increase the likelihood of re-surgery and cost more money? ? A2. This is because smoking constricts blood vessels in the mouth, fatally interfering with the most critical process of 'osseofusion,' where the gum bone and the implant must adhere tightly as one. This leads to an uncontrollable increase in the risk of peri-implantitis and bone resorption, ultimately resulting in the burden of massive revision surgery costs where the entire implant structure must be removed and bone grafting must be performed again from the beginning due to the failure of initial fixation. conclusion The cost of implant revision surgery is by no means a one-dimensional expense of simply implanting a new artificial tooth component. This is a comprehensive treatment fee that includes a highly specialized recovery process to safely and healthily normalize the gum environment and alveolar bone foundation, which have been severely collapsed and damaged due to inflammation. Therefore, the most certain key point to prevent frightening side effects and massive waste of money is the speed of catching subtle abnormal signals before the problem snowballs. Don't carelessly miss the timing by thinking, "It doesn't hurt yet, so it'll be fine," or "Even if I feel a slight wavering, I'm busy, so I'll go later." The habit of visiting a dental professional without delay to have your condition thoroughly checked when you feel even slight shaking or minor discomfort. This is truly the best wisdom for fully protecting your precious dental health and, consequently, definitely saving the biggest costs.

이현섭 원장26.05.21Views 29766Likes 1 [Health Column] Just Remember This on the Day of Your Implant! Hourly Checklist from Before Surgery to After You Go Home 📝✨[2]
hello! Lee Hyun-seop, Chief Director of Seoul Centum Dental Clinic It is. 😉✨ While the quality of the surgery itself is crucial for implants, how you spend and manage the day of the operation has a significant impact on the future recovery process and outcome. Before visiting the dental clinic, you must have many worries and questions, such as "Can I eat breakfast?" and "Can I resume my daily activities immediately after surgery?" Today, we will summarize the key points most frequently asked by patients on the day of your implant procedure, in chronological order, for you to understand clearly and concisely. 💡👇 1️⃣ How should I prepare at home before going to the dentist for surgery? Please make sure to relax your body with sufficient sleep and rest the day before surgery! Many people feel nervous before dental implant surgery. Drinking late into the night before or getting insufficient sleep can increase anxiety on the day of the surgery, which can also affect the speed of your recovery. Rather than scheduling a strenuous day, the best approach is to manage your condition by resting comfortably at home. 📌 On the day, make sure to Please visit in the best possible condition after getting sufficient rest. I recommend this! (Source: AI Image) 2️⃣ Do I need to skip breakfast on the morning of the surgery? For implant surgery performed under local anesthesia, please do not skip a meal and come after eating a light meal! Many people mistakenly believe that they must come on an empty stomach before surgery, but when undergoing local anesthesia, it is actually better to come after having a hearty (but light!) meal. This is because if you come on an empty stomach, symptoms of dizziness or hypoglycemia may occur during surgery due to tension. We recommend meals that are easy on the stomach, such as warm, easily digestible porridge or soft rice. ⚠️ Please note! If 'sedation treatment (sleep implant)' is scheduled instead of general anesthesia, the dental clinic will inform you in advance You must strictly observe the fasting time! 3️⃣ What should I do if I am currently taking any medication? Please be sure to inform your medical staff in advance of any medications you are currently taking, such as blood circulation supplements or diabetes medication! The tendency for bleeding during surgery or the recovery process can vary completely depending on the ingredients of the medications the patient normally takes. If you are taking blood circulation medication, anticoagulants, diabetes medication, osteoporosis medication, etc., you must have an in-depth consultation with dental medical staff before surgery. ⚠️ The most important point! Just because you are afraid it might be bad for your health or are scared of the surgery Stopping the medication on your own is strictly prohibited and is very dangerous. Please be sure to adjust according to the instructions of the attending medical staff. 4️⃣ What precautions should I take immediately after surgery? Please bite down firmly on the gauze to stop the bleeding, and refrain from spitting or gargling! Just because you have stepped out of the operating room does not mean the entire process is over. The time immediately following surgery, during which cells settle and hemostasis occurs, is critical. You must keep your mouth tightly closed and bite down on the sterile gauze provided by the dentist for the prescribed sufficient time to ensure proper hemostasis. There are cases where people keep spitting out saliva or gargle vigorously with water to rinse their mouths because they taste blood. ⚠️ This action is the main culprit that increases pressure in the mouth and dislodges blood clots from the wound, causing bleeding to continue for a longer period. Even if it feels a bit unpleasant, you must naturally swallow the saliva and blood to stop it! 5️⃣ When should I start eating on the day of surgery, and what kind of food should I eat? Once the anesthesia wears off, please eat mainly soft and non-irritating foods! You may be hungry after surgery, but chewing food while the anesthesia has not fully worn off can cause you to bite your cheek or tongue hard and injure it. Therefore, you should start eating only after you have confirmed that your sensation has returned to some extent. For the day's menu, you should avoid hot soup, spicy stews, hard side dishes, and tough meat, as these can irritate the wound. Soft liquid foods or cooled porridge are recommended. ✔️ When eating, if possible, avoid foods you have not received treatment for Please have the sense to chew carefully toward the teeth and gums on the opposite side. , don't forget! 6️⃣ How long and how should I apply cold compresses to my face after surgery? You must apply cold compresses diligently for the first 48 hours after surgery to reduce swelling! There is nothing better than ice packs for reducing heat in the surgical area and minimizing swelling. The golden time for cold compresses is for about two days (48 hours) starting immediately after surgery. When applying an ice pack to your face, keeping it on for an hour at a time can strain your skin, so it is most effective to repeat the process of applying it for about 10 to 15 minutes and then taking a short break. 📌 If you apply ice directly to the skin while it is still frozen Due to the risk of frostbite, be sure to wrap the ice pack in a thin towel or handkerchief and apply it gently. 7️⃣ Is light exercise or a sauna okay on the day of surgery? On the day of surgery, please refrain from exercising, using the sauna, drinking alcohol, and smoking! You must absolutely not go to the gym or hot saunas and steam rooms thinking, "It's okay to sweat a little, right?" If blood circulation speeds up excessively and blood pressure rises, bleeding from a wound that had stopped may start gushing out again, or your face may swell up like a black eye. In particular, alcohol and tobacco are deadly enemies that hinder recovery. ⚠️ In particular, smoking severely interferes with the 'osseointegration process,' where the implant screw firmly bonds with the gum bone. For successful initial settlement, even if it is difficult... Quitting smoking and drinking is absolutely essential! 8️⃣ Are these symptoms appearing after surgery normal? Or do I need to see a dentist? Slight swelling or minor bleeding is normal, but please contact us immediately if severe pain and a high fever persist! You may be worried as various symptoms appear when you return home after surgery. Typically, slight swelling, minor bleeding mixed with saliva, and a dull, uncomfortable sensation when chewing or opening your mouth are very common and normal symptoms experienced as the wound heals. These usually gradually improve after about 2 to 3 days. However, if there are warning signs that go beyond the normal recovery phase, you must visit the dental clinic without delay. 🚨 If you experience the following symptoms, do not wait for your next appointment. Please contact the dental clinic immediately and visit! - When the bleeding does not stop over time and blood keeps gurgling out - When the pain is so severe that it cannot be controlled at all, even with prescription medication - When yellow pus comes out of the surgical site or a strong foul odor is emitted - When accompanied by a high fever throughout the body or when facial swelling does not subside and gradually worsens 💬 FAQ (Frequently Asked Questions) Q1. How much pain is there on the day of implant surgery? A1. Since the procedure is performed under local anesthesia, you will feel almost no pain during the surgery. However, as the anesthesia wears off, throbbing pain may begin depending on your individual sensitivity. If you take the medication prescribed by the dentist exactly as directed, the pain is generally bearable. You don't need to worry too much! 😊 Q2. Do I have to eat only porridge for a few days after surgery? A2. We strongly recommend soft porridge or gruel for the day of surgery and the following day to avoid irritating the wound. Once the swelling subsides and pain decreases, you may gradually transition to a regular diet, starting with easy-to-chew side dishes such as steamed eggs and tofu. However, please avoid hard or chewy foods until the wound is completely healed, and please eat on the opposite side of your mouth! 🎯 Conclusion Many people often think, "With implants, once the surgery goes perfectly, that's the end of it!" However, you must remember that meticulous home care on the day of surgery is the true starting point for a stable recovery. 💡 One small daily habit and one minor precaution can reduce pain and swelling at the surgical site, and furthermore, shorten the time it takes for the implant to firmly bond to the bone. Please keep the checklist shared today in mind, and I hope you have a comfortable day without overexerting yourself. If you experience any discomfort, please do not endure it.

Hello! This is Dr. Lee Jeong-ho, Chief Director of Seoul Dia Dental Clinic. Usually, when people receive a consultation or hear about dental implants at a dental clinic, quite a few of them think to themselves like this. 💬 "Come on, it's just implanting one tooth. Isn't it a simpler surgery than you'd think?" However, it is by no means a simple matter. This is because dental implants are not simply a treatment where a single artificial tooth is placed and finished; rather, it is a precise treatment that requires the perfect alignment of the patient's current physical condition, the state of their gum bone, and their daily lifestyle habits. 📌 Today, the advice I actually give patients the most in the consultation room 5 Key Basic Conditions I will summarize it for you in an easy-to-understand way! 1️⃣ Why should the gum bone be checked before the teeth before implant surgery? The success of an implant depends on a solid and sufficient ' gum bone It is determined based on ' When you look in the mirror, you are bound to see only the empty space and think, "Ah, a tooth is missing in this spot." However, the principle of an implant is to firmly implant an artificial tooth root into the 'gum bone (alveolar bone)' beneath the space where the tooth was missing. It's just like how the soil needs to be firm when planting a tree. 🌱 Therefore, when you visit the dental clinic, the directors will first precisely diagnose the condition of your gum bone. What is important at this time 3 elements It is as follows. 🔸 Bone thickness (Is it wide enough to cover the artificial tooth root?) 🔸 Bone height (Is sufficient length secured?) 🔸 Bone hardness (Is the bone density good enough to provide good fixation?) ⚠️ Even if the gums appear healthy and plump on the outside, a thorough examination reveals that there are surprisingly many cases where the bone underneath has thinned or has already dissolved and been absorbed. If you are planning dental implants, it is essential to first undergo a CT scan to examine the invisible bone structure in three dimensions. 🔍 2️⃣ Why do I need to inform the dentist in advance if I have systemic diseases? Chronic underlying conditions are directly related to bleeding during surgery and recovery, so this is essential information for safety. There are people who cautiously ask, "Doctor, is it okay if I take blood pressure medication?" or "My diabetes is quite severe; is it okay to have surgery?" To start with the conclusion, chronic diseases such as hypertension, diabetes, liver disease, and osteoporosis are all closely linked to implant surgery. ⚠️ This is because implants are a surgical procedure that involves incising the gums and manipulating the bone, so the management of the following three factors is crucial. ✔️ Control of bleeding during and after surgery ✔️ Rapid wound healing ability ✔️ Infection control regarding bacteria 💡 Even if you have systemic diseases ❌, surgery is not impossible. It is to create a customized plan for the safest time to proceed with the surgery and the method to be used. Therefore, please remember that when visiting the dentist, systemic diseases are never a secret to be hidden, but rather valuable data that will ensure the safety of your surgery! 😊 3️⃣ Should I check every single medication you take regularly, even minor treatments? Since the timing of surgery and hemostasis methods vary depending on the type of medication being taken, accurate sharing is necessary. When filling out a dental questionnaire, there is a section to list any medications you are currently taking, right? If you are facing implant surgery, information about your medication is truly more important than anything else. ✨ In particular, the success and safety of the surgery depend significantly on whether the following apply. 📌 blood-related drugs (Aspirin, etc.) 📌 Osteoporosis treatments and injections 📌 anticoagulant component These medications serve as important milestones in determining how to manage hemostasis on the day of surgery or whether to postpone the surgery. 📝 If you cannot remember the name of your medicine, please do not worry. You can simply take a photo of your prescription or medicine bag, or write it down, and we will carefully verify it for you! 4️⃣ How much does your condition the day before surgery affect the implant outcome? Overwork or drinking the day before is the main culprit that significantly increases pain and bleeding on the day. No matter how skilled a doctor is, if the implant is performed with a perfect plan, the difficulty of the surgery increases significantly if the patient's condition is poor on the day of the operation. 😢 It is most advisable to get dental implants when your body is in peak condition. ⚠️ Alcohol consumed late the previous day (drinking) ⚠️ Sleep deprivation caused by tossing and turning ⚠️ Overwork due to accumulated excessive schedule If you lie on the operating table in this state, your blood vessels will expand, causing a noticeable increase in bleeding during surgery compared to usual. Not only will your recovery speed slow down after surgery, but you may also feel much sharper and more severe pain when you wake up from anesthesia. ✔️ Take a complete break from alcohol for just one day 🙅♂️ ✔️ Go to bed early at night and get enough restful sleep 💤 5️⃣ What is a more fundamental question than "Doctor, can I have surgery today?" Finding the 'most correct timing' suited to the patient's periodontal condition is the priority, rather than speed. Perhaps because many people visiting the dental clinic for consultations are impatient, they frequently ask this question. 🙋♂️ "Director, it's hard for me to make time. Since I'm here today, can't you plant it for me right away?" Of course, if examination results show that the bone is very strong and there is absolutely no inflammation, there are cases where treatment involving immediate implantation on the same day is possible. However, from the medical team's perspective, there is a different question that must be asked with much greater weight than whether or not surgery is performed on the same day. ✨ "Would it really be suitable for the patient in the long term to plant it right now in this condition?" If severe inflammation remains at the extraction site, a preliminary step of thoroughly scraping out and cleaning the inflamed tissue may be necessary; additionally, if the bone tissue is weak, it may be much more beneficial to wait until the gum bone recovers and becomes firmer on its own before proceeding. Ultimately, dental implants are not a race against time to see 'how quickly you can get it done,' but a battle of precision to see 'how to install it at the most appropriate timing with the fewest side effects.' This seemingly minor difference in timing will result in a significant difference in outcome a few years later, determining whether you can use your implant properly for a long time. 💡 FAQ (Frequently Asked Questions) Q1. I have been taking osteoporosis medication for a long time. Will this significantly interfere with implant surgery? A1. Certain ingredients commonly used in the treatment of osteoporosis (such as bisphosphonates and denosumab) have the property of inhibiting the bone metabolic process in which bone is absorbed and regenerated. Therefore, it is essential to thoroughly examine the patient's medication history and duration prior to surgery. However, taking medication does not automatically mean that surgery is impossible; the plan will be safely modified after comprehensively reviewing the form of the medication (oral or injectable), the specific duration of use, and the status of underlying diseases. Never stop taking the medication on your own; please be sure to consult closely with your prescribing physician and dentist! ⚠️ Q2. Is it really a problem to have a light drink or two of beer or soju the night before surgery? A2. Yes, the effect is more noticeable than expected. Even a small amount of alcohol instantly dilates blood vessels upon entering the body, which can cause bleeding to be difficult to stop during surgery and may interfere with the effectiveness of the anesthetic. Please let go of the thought that "it will be okay a little" and I recommend taking a full day of rest the day before. 🙅♂️ 🔸 Conclusion When it comes to implant treatment, the top priority is to rationally determine "whether proceeding now is the best course of action given my physical condition," rather than unconditionally focusing on "how quickly the procedure can be finished, like lightning." Make sure to fully absorb what we covered today! 🧠 1️⃣ Thoroughly check the condition of the gum bone inside rather than the exterior 2️⃣ Do not hide your systemic diseases; use them as a compass for surgery. 3️⃣ Share all information about your daily medication, no matter how minor. 4️⃣ Protect your body by maintaining optimal condition the night before surgery 5️⃣ Entering at the optimal time rather than deciding on immediate surgery on the same day 💡 If you follow these commitments step-by-step with the medical team, there is no need to harbor excessive fear about the surgery, nor is there any reason to rush. Sometimes, treatment is like life itself; the more urgent the situation, the slower and more standard the path becomes—the safest and fastest shortcut. 🦷 If you have any questions about your bone condition or medications, feel free to consult with medical professionals at any time!

✨ Hello! We always put your dental health first. SmileD Dental Clinic, Chief Director Oh Su-hwan It is. 🥰 When considering dental implant treatment, many of you likely search by comparing with the 'lowest price' as your top priority. 🔍 However, it is truly heartbreaking to see patients in the consultation room who have hastily chosen a hospital based solely on cost, only to come to me later suffering from poor follow-up care or unexpected side effects. 😢 In fact, dental implants are not simply a surgery where you implant an artificial tooth and that's it; it is a highly precise treatment process that requires a perfect balance of three factors, from accurate pre-operative diagnosis to long-term maintenance. 🦷 Today, I will clearly summarize the 3 criteria for choosing a truly fail-safe implant dental clinic that are hidden behind the price! 👇 1️⃣ Implant experience and Total Treatment Is this a place where it is possible? ✨My precious Harmony between natural teeth and implants Check out the comprehensive medical care system that preserves and cares for together Many people choose a hospital after seeing the phrase "implant specialist" in an advertisement. However, under our country's medical system, there is no separate specialty called 'Implantology,' and actual treatment is completed through close collaboration among various dental subspecialties. The key point we must focus on here is that rather than a dental clinic that insists solely on implant placement, the patient's inherent preciousness 'Total Dental Clinic' that comprehensively considers natural teeth and implants It is to select. This is because inside our mouths, there are not only spaces that need to be newly implanted, but also natural teeth that must be saved and used for a long time. Furthermore, our medical team, having honed their proficiency through countless implant placements, possesses solid know-how to ensure safe and successful treatment even in unexpected, high-difficulty cases encountered during surgery. 2️⃣ Is it an 'explanation-centered' hospital that communicates with patients? Rushing treatment based solely on the counseling manager's guidance without a doctor's careful diagnosis Factory-style dental clinic Be vigilant The so-called practice of receiving a precise diagnosis from a doctor very briefly, and then hastily proceeding with a contract based solely on the consultation manager's words regarding specific treatment plans or surgery decisions. Factory-style dental clinic You must be cautious. ⚠️ Implant treatment is between the patient and the medical team Information asymmetry This is an area where it can occur very severely. 📉 If a patient undergoes surgery without fully understanding the details of the treatment, it becomes very difficult to clearly determine liability if side effects or problems arise later. Fully explaining the surgical process and the patient's condition and communicating closely with them is itself an excellent first step in treatment. Make sure to keep a close eye on whether the hospital operates an official blog or YouTube channel to actively communicate and resolve even the smallest questions from patients, and whether the doctor makes a kind effort to help patients understand during in-person consultations! 💬 3️⃣ Is there a 'post-care' program that takes responsibility until the very end? ✨ Check out the thorough regular check-up system to prevent side effects that are scarier than the implant itself Implant treatment does not end once the artificial tooth is safely implanted into the gum; it is a long journey where 'real care begins from that moment.' 🏁 Signs of complications and side effects, such as slight loosening of the prosthesis or gum swelling, appear very subtly in the early stages, making it extremely difficult for patients to notice them on their own. Therefore, periodic and thorough regular checkups are an absolute necessity. 🔍 If there is a place that irresponsibly says the following immediately after the surgery, it is safer to avoid it if possible. 💬 "If you have no discomfort, please come back in a year." Thoroughly checking whether the hospital consistently operates a systematic follow-up inspection program and demonstrates full responsibility by promising a clear written warranty period is the surest shortcut to avoiding wasting your precious time and money! 💰 🧐 Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ) Q1. Isn't a dental clinic that specializes exclusively in implants always better? 🤔 A1. Of course, choosing a dental clinic with an overwhelmingly large number of implant surgery cases is a good idea. 👌 However, you should avoid places that insist solely on extraction followed by implant placement, even if there is a possibility of saving your natural teeth. Care that ensures the health of the existing natural teeth and the occlusion of the newly implanted implant prosthetics interlock harmoniously. Total Dental Clinic Receiving treatment here is much more advantageous in the long run. ✨ Q2. The waiting time for treatment at the dental clinic I plan to visit is too long and difficult. Should I just put up with it and keep going? A2. Time convenience, as well as accessibility, plays a very significant role in a patient's satisfactory hospital experience. 🙏 If waiting times become excessively long and you are unable to receive necessary medical care or treatment smoothly in a timely manner, it will ultimately result in harm to the patient. Also, check if they have an efficient appointment and treatment system in place that allows you to receive medical care smoothly and without major disruptions at the appropriate time you desire. Q3. How can I prevent 'peri-implantitis,' where the gum bone erodes? ⚠️ A3. Implants are fundamentally different from natural teeth because they do not have nerves distributed inside. 💡 For this reason, even if severe inflammation develops in the surrounding gums, the patient feels little to no pain, making it easy to neglect. Ultimately, the only way to use your implants for a long time without side effects is to visit the dental clinic without fail according to the schedule set to have the condition of the prosthetic connections precisely checked, and to receive thorough care through systematic regular checkups and scaling. 🦷 🎯 Conclusion and Words of Advice 📌 Please make sure to remember this for successful treatment! Dental implants are absolutely not a trivial treatment to be chosen simply by comparing price lists and chasing the place offering the lowest price. 🙅♂️ You can achieve regret-free results only when firmly supported by the surgeon's seasoned clinical experience, explanation-centered communication that listens to the patient's voice, and a post-operative care program that takes responsibility for your entire life. ✨ Rather than being lured by exaggerated low-price advertisements or flashy discount offers to make a hasty decision about surgery, I hope you carefully compare the criteria I shared today one by one and make adjustments to regain your healthy teeth. 🥰 If you have any further questions regarding the condition of your teeth, please feel free to visit our dental clinic anytime for a thorough, personalized one-on-one consultation with a specialist! 💬 Smile D Dental Clinic Chief Director Oh Su-hwan Graduated from Yonsei University College of Dentistry Major in Orthodontics, Yonsei University Graduate School of Dentistry Ministry of Health and Welfare certified orthodontist Regular member of the Korean Association of Orthodontists Completed internship and residency in Orthodontics at Ewha Womans University Mokdong Hospital International member of the American Association of Orthodontists (AAO) International member of the World Federation of Correctional Organizations (WFO) Regular member of the Korean Association of Orthodontists Certified by the Korean Association of Orthodontists View more expert columns by Dr. Oh Su-hwan, Director of Smile D Dental Clinic 🔗 [Expert Column] Clear Aligners: Wire-Free Orthodontic Treatment—Can It Really Be Unnoticeable? 🔗 [Expert Column] No-Prep Dental Laminates: Is It Really 'No Prep'?

View moreThe Real Reason You Must Get a Forehead Lift Along with Upper Eyelid Surgery in Your 50s (Maximizing Before-and-After Difference)[6]
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?

An accurate diagnosis through consultation with a specialist comes first. 2. Under-eye Fat Repositioning Surgery Method — How is it performed?

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.

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.
