안레몬25.01.31Views 706Likes 6 Three misconceptions and truths about Botox <Aesthetic Surgery Specialist Director Jang Joon-chul's Procedure Column>[11]
Hello. I am Jang Joon-chul, the chief director of Dreaming Plastic Surgery and a specialist in plastic surgery. Botox, an innovative method in skin aesthetics. But how much do you really know about this procedure? While there is an abundance of information about Botox, many of it is incorrect. In this article, we aim to clarify common misconceptions about Botox and provide accurate information. 1. Does imported Botox last longer than domestically produced Botox? ( X ) There is no evidence to suggest that domestically produced Botox has a shorter duration of effect compared to imported Botox. Domestic Botox can also maintain its effectiveness for up to six months if administered properly and with appropriate care. The effects of Botox become visible 2 to 3 days after the procedure, and by two weeks, wrinkles are noticeably smoothed out. The short procedure time makes it suitable for busy modern individuals. Does frequent Botox treatment lead to resistance? ( X ) If the proper treatment interval is maintained, there will be no resistance issues. Many people think that frequent Botox injections cause resistance. However, this is incorrect information. Botox can be effective without concerns of resistance if administered at intervals of 3 to 4 months. Botox works by inhibiting the release of the neurotransmitter acetylcholine, temporarily paralyzing the muscles. Therefore, by adhering to the proper treatment intervals, the wrinkle improvement effects can be sustained without resistance. 3. Is Botox less effective for deep wrinkles? (partially O) Combining Botox with other procedures is more effective for deep wrinkles. Botox works by limiting muscle movement to improve wrinkles, but it may have limitations when used alone on deeply etched wrinkles. In such cases, combining fillers or laser treatments can yield better results. Fillers add volume to the skin to fill in wrinkles, while laser treatments promote skin regeneration to improve wrinkles. - Botox can be a highly effective cosmetic procedure when proper information and appropriate management are applied. By correcting common misconceptions and understanding the truth about Botox, you can receive a safer and more satisfying treatment. When deciding on a Botox procedure, it is essential to consult with a professional and choose the optimal method suited to your individual situation.

캐시닥 운영진24.06.28Views 6611Likes 12 I had a consultation for under-eye fat repositioning at Leaders Plastic Surgery in Songdo, Incheon, and it really helped me sort out my thoughts.[15]
As I get older, the area under my eyes becomes puffy. I was stressed because my dark circles seemed to be getting worse, I finally mustered up the courage to get a consultation for under-eye fat repositioning and removal. It's right next to the dermatology clinic my child goes to. I've always thought I should get a consultation while watching this. The place where I had a consultation is <Songdo Leaders Plastic Surgery>. I had a lot of questions during the consultation, so I planned to ask a lot. First of all, you explained everything in such detail that I didn't need to do that. Skin sagging due to current skin condition or the progression of aging I heard explanations about things like that. Regarding the most important side effects or recovery period, I heard that. But since there is so much individual variation in this area... He seemed cautious when speaking. However, I agree with that point as well. It didn't sound like avoiding responsibility. The hospital atmosphere is clean and The medical staff were all quite friendly. It felt like the process leading up to the counseling was systematic. Until you receive a consultation for the under-eye fat repositioning procedure Combined with various other procedures as a package I thought you were going to recommend a really expensive procedure, but You only explained the part I inquired about. The price aspect is also not to a certain extent In the event of proceeding with the procedure in my actual condition It was clear because you told me the price. I haven't had the procedure yet. I plan to do it when the kids are on summer vacation. The biggest concern is dissatisfaction due to side effects. I'm still thinking about this part. However, if you undergo the procedure At Leaders Plastic Surgery, where I had a consultation first and it is close to my home I plan to do it. Overall, without any unnecessary frills I feel like I received good counseling in a comfortable atmosphere.

I often hear that my eyes look sleepy, so I got a consultation for eye shape correction. Since it was surgery, I was worried about the recovery period, and I also read a lot about side effects, so I hesitated. I had a consultation at Banobagi Plastic Surgery this time, and it wasn't as burdensome as I thought. They showed me my current eye condition and explained why that impression is formed. I liked that they didn't just recommend surgery right away, but instead compared and explained the available methods. The staff were friendly and the hospital atmosphere was clean, so I was able to receive a comfortable consultation. The consultation alone resolved many of my questions, and I realized why people recommend getting a direct consultation.

[Health Column] Is it too late to start orthodontic treatment now? A prosthodontist answers![4]
Hello, this is Gangnam Saero Dental Clinic. Chief Director Jeong Jae-wook It is. ✨ 🤔 "Will it be effective to start at this age?" Have you ever worried about this at least once, when someone around you starts orthodontic treatment, or when you are bothered by crooked teeth in the mirror? To start with the conclusion, regarding orthodontics There is absolutely no such thing as 'too late'! We will clearly highlight the key points regarding the distinct advantages and unique characteristics of adult correctional care, which are distinct from adolescent correctional care. Shall we begin the journey to find a confident smile right now? 💕 1️⃣ What is the difference between adolescent correction and adult correction? 👋 The biggest difference is right Presence or absence of growth It is located at. During adolescence, bones are soft and growth plates are open, making skeletal corrections such as prognathism or retrognathism possible. On the other hand, since growth has ended in adults, it is difficult to change the position of the skeleton, but the teeth and angles within the hard bone It can be corrected very precisely and without error. . 🎯 Even though it may look like similarly crooked teeth on the outside, adults need a customized movement plan that is perfectly tailored to their current skeletal condition. Just because your bones are strong doesn't mean correction isn't possible, so I recommend getting a precise diagnosis tailored to your skeletal structure first! ✔️ 2️⃣ Is adult orthodontics more painful and much slower? 👋 Slow down a little, but Healthier and more stable Moving! It is true that adults have higher bone density, so their cellular metabolism is slightly slower than that of adolescents. commonly 24~30 months It takes about that long, so it can be several months longer than for adolescents. ⏳ You may experience a dull ache for the first 2 to 3 days, but this is as your teeth find their proper positions Healthy Signs So you can rest assured! You may feel a heavy pain on the first night you wear the device, but you will surprisingly adapt within a few days. If you are very worried about pain and the duration, 'self-ligating braces,' which reduce pain by minimizing friction, or 'clear braces,' which offer a clean appearance, can be good alternatives. 💡 3️⃣ Are there any advantages to being an adult? 👋 Overwhelming cooperation and Thorough self-management is the best weapon. Adult orthodontics has 3 powerful advantages (TOP 3) unique to adults! 💎 🔸 1. Overwhelming cooperation with treatment 🤝 Unlike adolescents who are led by their parents, adults begin this process of their own strong will, so please strictly follow the doctor's instructions and precautions. This directly leads to the completeness of the treatment results. 🔸 2. Thorough Oral Hygiene Management 🪥 Because they meticulously use toothbrushes, interdental brushes, and dental floss on their own, the risk of cavities or gum disease that may occur during orthodontic treatment is significantly lower compared to adolescents. 🔸 3. Precise predictability without variables 📐 Since growth has already stopped, there is no unexpected variable called skeletal change. You can establish an error-free treatment plan by predicting future changes in facial shape or dental alignment with greater precision. The advantages of being an adult are maximized, especially in 'clear braces,' where self-care is essential. ✨ 💬 Ask Me Anything! (FAQ) Q1. Is it true that getting braces at an older age causes holes (black triangles) to form between the gums? It’s not that a new gum disease is developing; it’s just a phenomenon where the overlapping teeth straighten out, revealing the previously empty spaces! 😮 This can be sufficiently aesthetically corrected with procedures such as 'interdental reduction' or 'resin treatment,' so you do not need to worry too much. On the contrary, in the long run, it corrects the alignment of the teeth, which is of great help in preventing gum disease. Q2. Is 'extraction orthodontics,' which involves pulling out healthy teeth, absolutely necessary for adult orthodontics? Absolutely not! Whether or not to extract a tooth is determined not by the patient's age, but by the availability of space for the tooth to move and the degree of protrusion of the mouth. Recently, with the advancement of digital equipment, there has been a significant increase in cases where the dental arch is expanded or the teeth are pushed back to proceed without extraction. 🦷 Q3. I had braces when I was young, but they have become misaligned again as I have gotten older. Is it possible to have them re-corrected? Yes, of course it is possible! There are many adult patients who can restore their teeth to a straight alignment in a short period of time through partial orthodontics or clear aligners, especially in cases where crowded teeth have grown in again or teeth have gradually shifted due to neglecting retainer care. 😊 🎯 Conclusion: An investment in your youngest days for future oral health If crooked teeth are left untreated, food gets trapped between them, causing cavities and periodontitis (gum disease). Adult orthodontics goes beyond simple cosmetic purposes, The most reliable preventive treatment to protect your teeth and gums for a lifetime no see. ⚠️ Rather than wasting time hesitating thinking it's 'too late,' first have an experienced and trustworthy Prosthodontics specialist Find us and start with accurate digital precision diagnosis and consultation!

정재욱 원장26.06.08Views 115Likes 2 [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.

캐시닥 운영진24.06.28Views 6611Likes 12 Ultherapy Lifting Effects: Key Information from a Specialist, From Pain to Side Effects ✨[5]
hello, Dr. Jeong Ga-i, Director of Le Miel Plastic Surgery no see. “ Have you been worried about your jawline not being what it used to be and your sagging skin every time you look in the mirror? Aging is a natural process, but actually getting on the operating table requires great courage. Recently called the 'epitome of non-surgical lifting' Ultherapy This is also the reason why it is receiving attention. This is because it creates changes deep within the skin, allowing you to return to your daily life immediately without surgery. Today, I will honestly answer everything you are curious about regarding Ulthera lifting. What exactly is the principle behind Ulthera lifting? 📚 A non-surgical cosmetic procedure that directly pulls the target layer (SMAS) of a facelift without surgery. Ulthera The only FDA-approved ultrasonic lifting device no see. Unlike conventional lasers, the key is that it delivers ultrasonic energy to the SMAS layer (fascial layer) at a depth of 4.5 mm. 🔹 Key Points SMAS layer target: It targets the very layer that is actually pulled up during a plastic surgery facelift. Check real-time video: The procedure is highly precise as it is performed while directly viewing the skin layers using ultrasound imaging. Collagen Regeneration: It simultaneously induces tissue contraction and collagen regeneration through thermal stimulation. 📌 A word from the Director It goes beyond a simple dermatological procedure and is closer to 'non-surgical cosmetic surgery'. Since energy must be delivered while viewing real-time video, the operator's skill level determines the result. What changes can I expect after an Ulthera procedure? 📚 A harmony of tightening immediately after the procedure and elasticity that comes alive over time The appeal of Ulthera is that you can enjoy both 'immediate effects' and 'gradually appearing delayed effects' at the same time. 🔹 Summary of effects by period Immediate effect (~1 week): The tissue is immediately tightened by thermal energy, and you feel a slight pulling sensation along your jawline. Delay effect (2–12 weeks): As collagen regenerates, full-scale lifting begins and volume is naturally filled in. ✨ Duration: The effect is average 3~6 months Reaching a peak at, approximately 1~2 years It is maintained to some extent. The biggest advantage is the natural change, which feels like "it has returned to the skin that was originally in its place." Regarding the pain and the procedure, honestly, how painful is it? 📚 Tolerable but not comfortable; can be combined with general anesthesia if necessary. Many people are concerned about the pain, but I think it would be honest to say that with Ultherapy, "since the effects are certain, there is definitely stimulation." 🔹 Pain intensity by location ⭐⭐⭐⭐ (Very High): Jawline, forehead, cheekbones, etc. The part close to the bone (A tingling electric shock) ⭐⭐⭐ (Average): Cheeks, neck area (heavy pressure) 📌 Procedure (approx. 30–60 minutes): Cleansing → Application of ultrasound gel → Real-time image verification → Energy delivery to specific areas (300–800 shots). For those who are afraid of pain, at our hospital sleep anesthesia It is also done in parallel. Are there any side effects or precautions regarding improper procedures? 📚 Avoid excessive energy! Precise design is essential to prevent cheek hollowing and nerve damage. Ultherapy is a safe procedure, but side effects may rarely occur if performed by an inexperienced practitioner. ⚠️ Side effects to watch out for: Cheek sinking phenomenon: If the procedure is performed excessively on a thin face shape, it may actually make the face appear sunken. Nerve damage: If an inappropriate area is selected, facial asymmetry or numbness may occur. ✔️ Normal reaction: Redness, swelling, and slight bruising immediately after the procedure will naturally disappear within one week. Who would benefit most from receiving this, and who should avoid it? 📚 Ulthera is the answer for early to mid-stage aging, while surgical methods should be considered for severe sagging. The appropriate procedure varies depending on an individual's skin thickness and fat distribution. ✅ I recommend it! People in their mid-30s to early 50s who have started early aging For those whose jawlines are becoming indistinct and nasolabial folds are deepening For those who are hesitant about surgery but want a 확실한 (definite) lifting effect ❌ I don't recommend it! Severe sagging in individuals over 60 (surgical lifting recommended) An extremely thin face with very little volume Pregnant women, nursing mothers, and those with metal implants at the surgical site What is the hospital selection checklist for satisfactory results? 📚 Using genuine products is a given, and verifying whether the procedure was performed 'directly' by a board-certified plastic surgeon. Please be sure to check the items below before the procedure. Verify authenticity: Do you use genuine FDA-approved equipment and cartridges?
