'Elastic band lifting', redeem the shortcomings of thread lifting

'Elastic band lifting',

redeem the shortcomings of thread lifting 

The spring has come. In these days, increasing sunlight and stronger ultraviolet rays can lead to rapid aging of the skin. During this process, decreased collagen and elastin on the skin weakens the support for the facial muscles, causing sagging and wrinkles. Lifting procedures that increase elasticity are helpful in these wrinkled and sagging areas.

There are various methods of face lifting, from laser to thread lifting, facial lifting, etc., and you should proceed with the appropriate type according to the individual's skin condition.

If the skin sagging is not severe, it can be improved using laser lifting such as Ulthera and Thermage. However, if wrinkles and skin sagging have progressed considerably, you should choose intensive treatment methods such as thread lifting and facial lifting. Thread lifting is popular recently, and it is suitable when it is difficult to expect the effect by laser lifting alone. In particular, the recovery period is relatively short, and the effect of the thread lifting can be immediately seen after the procedure. Also there is no need to make an incision on the face like facial lifting. Since it is a less-pressure procedure for recovery, people with lack of time are more likely prefer it.

Thread lifting is performed by making a fine hole in the area where the skin sags or deep wrinkles, and then injecting a safe medical thread and pulling it from inside the skin. The injected thread melts and disappears over time, so there is no need to remove it. It is important to know exactly about the type of thread used in the procedure, as the duration and effect may differ depending on the thread used.

Most of the melting threads currently used for lifting are made of polydioxanone (PDO). Melting thread lifting has the advantage of being relatively easy, but it does not change the position of the fixation ligament and pulls only the soft tissue on the surface of the face. Since the thread melts in the body, it tends to sag again after some time.

Accordingly, in recent years, elastic band lifting is popular because it has better elasticity than thread lifting and has a similar effect to facial lifting surgery. Elastic band lifting is a new concept lifting procedure with the concept of rebuilding aged elastic tissue by using a special material band called 'Elasticum'. Because it uses a special elastic band, it has natural movement and elasticity like a real ligament compared to thread lifting. In addition, satisfaction is high in that the maintenance period lasts semi-permanently.

Dr. Barn Jaesang from Banobagi Plastic Surgery Clinic said, "The anti-aging procedure doesn't end with a one-time treatment," and said "If the most aging parts of the face are solved first, maintenance should be done with procedures such as laser or filler to increase the effectiveness."

 
He also emphasized, “Having medical checkups once a year or two, and receive appropriate treatments regularly will maintain skin youth naturally.”

The appearance of the nose determines the function of the nose

The appearance of the nose determines

the function of the nose

  Allergic rhinitis patients are increasing every year. According to the results of analysis of medical data for the past 5 years published by the National Health Insurance Corporation last year, the number of patients with vasomotor rhinitis and allergic rhinitis was 13,503 per 100,000, accounting for 13.5% of all health insurance subscribers. As these days have a large difference of temperature and with the dry weather, there are more patients with nasal congestion, sneezing, and respiratory diseases.
 
  Rhinitis is a condition caused by weakened immunity of the mucous membrane that controls the temperature and humidity of the nose, and that the nose is unable to function properly. Nevertheless, compared to other allergic diseases, many people do not treat allergic rhinitis. Although it is somewhat uncomfortable, there is no major obstacle in daily life, so it is considered as a rite of passage for the changing season and neglects treatment.
 
  Because the function and shape of the nose are closely related, if the nose does not function properly, the appearance of the nose is deteriorated. In fact, if you have chronic rhinitis, there is a high chance that your nose shape will change. Conversely, a nasal cavity with structural problems can also cause rhinitis.

◆ When it's rhinitis, chronic, it can make nose wrinkles and upturned nose

  In the case of rhinitis, the typical symptoms are runny nose, nasal congestion, and itching. In particular, in the case of a child, as it is easy to touch the nose from time to time, the wrinkle can occur easily and also nose can easily lifted and become upturned nose.
 
  The most important precaution against rhinitis is temperature and humidity management. The environment should be maintained so that the temperature difference of the air entering the nose is small, and it should not be dried by controlling the humidity.

  Therefore, it is important to keep your respiratory tract warm in winter, and on cold days, you should wear a scarf or shawl to protect your neck and wear a mask. It is also good to use a poultice pack or a do lower body bathing to prevent the body temperature from falling after returning home from outside. Also, make sure that the room is not too dry. It is helpful to keep the humidity around 40-60% by turning on a humidifier, and moisten the neck by drinking water frequently.

◆ Ugly nose sometimes causes rhinitis

  Conversely, the shape of an ugly nose is a major cause of rhinitis. In general, the nose that are deviated or hump nose are representative forms that are not favored by beauty, and are easy form to accompany functional problems.

  If the nose is injured during the growth period, the nose may bend due to damage to the growth point, or deformation such as a hump nose or a flat nose may occur. Most of these nasal deformities cause functional problems. In the center of the nose, which also called the bridge, if the nose bridge is bent due to trauma, the inside of nose gets swollen and the air length narrows, inflammation is likely to occur. The likelihood of rhinitis is increased because the nose is unable to function properly to circulate air. In addition, various nasal diseases such as snoring and sleep apnea and sinusitis may be accompanied.

  These nasal diseases can be temporarily relieved through drug treatment, but if structural problems in the nose are the cause, surgical treatments such as deviated nose correction should also be considered.

“There are more and more patients who are trying to improve their cosmetic problems while improving their medical problems through plastic surgery,” said
Dr. Park Shinki from Banonagi Plastic Surgery.
" In particular, the deviated nose needs to be operated by correcting the nasal septum considering the functional aspects, and the surgical method is determined according to the extent and location of the nasal septum and whether it is accompanied by nasal septal curvature.”

When is the right time for eyelid
and rhinoplasty revision?

As cosmetic surgery is becoming more common, cases of revision surgeries are also increasing. Revision surgery may be caused by a variety of side effects, but also can be done if the results of the surgery are not satisfactory.

When considering plastic revision surgery, there is an appropriate time for each site. The eyelid revision surgery performed when the eye is not closed after surgery, when both eyes are asymmetric, when the double eyelid is loosened, or when the double eyelid is too thick. Normally, the surgical tissue stabilizes and the redness of the surgical site disappears after about 6 months after the previous surgery.

However, if the results are not good immediately after surgery, the eyes can be re-operated within 2 weeks before the scar becomes hard. If there is inflammation, it is possible after it has completely subsided. However, since there are individual differences, it is desirable to be accurately diagnosed through consultation with a plastic surgeon.

Revision rhinoplasty should be done after the surgical tissue is sufficiently stable. Usually, after 6 months, the swelling in the operated area will subside and the tissue will stabilize. The nose may look crooked due to the swelling immediately after the surgery, so it is necessary to observe the progress until the swelling disappears and then decide on a re-operation.

However, if the implant is crooked or the tip of the nose is asymmetric, it should be considered as soon as possible. This is because tissues such as the tip of the nose or cartilage can be abnormally deformed if left for more than 6 months. In particular, the nose needs to be re-operated with sufficient consideration for not only the cosmetic part but also the functional part.

It is usually desirable to perform breast revision surgery when it is about 6 months to 1 year after the previous surgery. This is because it takes some time for the shape and tissue of the breasts to settle. However, if implant damage or deformation occurs, you need to visit the hospital and find a solution. 

Above all, it is important to identify the exact cause of revision surgery in any area and plan a re-operation. In particular, the revision surgery has a greater burden on the patient than the first surgery. For this reason, it is necessary to consult with medical staff thoroughly before surgery, and to check whether the medical staff has various surgical experiences. This is because re-operation 
is more difficult and the probability of side effects is higher than first surgery.

Along with this, it is also necessary to check whether the hospital has a professional anesthesia staff and a safety system.

Firm body that glows with health:

Body Lifting

BANOBAGI body SURGERY

Once body fat is removed, firmness should take place

Body reshaping commonly involves body fat removal through procedures like liposuction. However, simply reducing body fat does not create an appealing body, 

because the body’s firmness is just as important as its fat percentage.

 A well-toned body looks more proportionate and accentuates the slimness, 

giving you a healthier and more attractive figure. 

Obesity or pregnancy can make the skin lose its ability to recover, or the subcutaneous fat underneath the skin may sag. Aging can also reduce skin elasticity. In all of such cases, body lifting can effectively manage sagging skin and create a firm bodyline.

* Abdominoplasty

Abdominal sagging can be caused by various things: treatment must follow 

a precise understanding of individual bodily characteristics

Saggy tummy is one of the most common bodily complexes from which 

modern people suffer. Sagging caused by obesity, pregnancy, or aging covers 

a wide area and is difficult to rectify through one’s own efforts: 

receiving abdominoplasty is more efficient. 

For greater patient satisfaction, BANOBAGI thoroughly identifies your individual traits—e.g., skin elasticity, core muscle definition, body fat distribution, history of childbirth, etc.—and selects the optimal treatment for you, providing a personalized abdominoplasty

* Thigh Lifting

Taking the fat storage pattern and the overall lower body proportions into consideration

Our body focuses on fat storage in the thighs: rapid weight loss leaves 

an uneven texture because of decreased skin elasticity. 

BANOBAGI aims to increase skin elasticity and create smooth, straight legs 

with a meticulously planned thigh lifting that factors in the reduced fat mass 

and the lower body proportions. 

* Arm Lifting

Our goal is a natural-looking lifting that factors in the complex structure of the arm

Our arms see more exposure than other body parts, and they undergo various movements: this makes the inconspicuousness of the highest import 

when addressing skin sagging in the arms. 

BANOBAGI selects a method of lifting that is appropriate for your arms and their conditions, and we factor in the overall three-dimensional silhouette that stretches downward 

from the shoulder lines: this gives more natural and satisfying results.

* Back Lifting

The back has the largest area among all the body parts, and for women, 

wearing brassieres can make any sagging in the back more noticeable. 

This is why the surgeon must have wide knowledge and sensibilities for overall body proportions to effectively improve the patient’s back. 

Through our vast knowledge and experience in body cosmetic surgery, 

BANOBAGI can provide an effective and satisfying back lifting that brings out 

the overall body balance and silhouettes.

Male Hair Transplant: Confidence regained with natural results

Male Hair Transplant: 

Confidence regained with natural results

Hair-loss stress, BANOBAGI can alleviate it


Mundane routine can be a source of stress for those who suffer from hair loss.

Washing your hair, drying it, and styling it: your routine can return to normal again. 

With our extensive knowledge and professional skills in hair loss management,

BANOBAGI can provide a customized hair transplant and treatment by identifying the degree and the cause of your hair loss. 

Because hair loss comes in different forms among individuals, it is important to consult with an experienced medical team that has extensive knowledge in hair loss types, appropriate follicle count, surgical methods, and design.

Don’t fear that it’s too late, don’t give up, don’t waste any more time, and move quickly.

Customized hair transplant, omniangularly natural


Being viewed from any angle will not take away your confidence.

BANOBAGI’s male hair transplant is a natural-result-giving custom hair transplant that takes male needs into consideration.


Hair transplant is not as simple as just moving rear-head follicles to the front;
it is a procedure that builds on delicate techniques and expertise.


A simple hair transplant that does not take the patient’s facial structure into consideration leaves unnatural-looking results. Therefore, the extracted hair follicles must be relocated as naturally and precisely as possible by factoring in various conditions (e.g., the individual face type, forehead shape, preferred hairstyle, hair condition, hair density, etc.).


BANOBAGI’s customized hair transplant offers all of the aforementioned elements. It gives you better, omniangularly natural-looking results by thoroughly filling the empty space like a bespoke suit.



Male Hair Transplant by Hair Loss Type


Because different cases of hair loss have different causes, degree, and symptoms, it is important to personalize the treatment.


Male hair loss comes in a few different patterns: the M-type where the loss begins on either end of the forehead, the C-type where the hairline travels upwards, the O-type in which the hair loss begins at the top of the head, and the complex-type in which some of these patterns come simultaneously.


The hair strands become thinner, and the forehead widens as the hairline travels upward; the top of the head starts to thin as well.


Male-pattern baldness can continue to progress.
It is important to consult with a specialist and receive systematic treatment before the symptoms worsen.


Follicle extraction, we can handle any surgery method


The first important step of a hair transplant is extracting the hair follicles from the back of the head. Follicle extraction is often done in two ways: incision and non-incision. Both have their pros and cons, so BANOBAGI does not rule either out.


Through sufficient consultation and communication with the patient, we can suggest a better-suited option and provide custom surgery. Director Kyoungku Lee has extensive surgical experience, and his incision is both thorough and safe: our patients report a very high level of satisfaction. His non-incision procedure involves ARTAS, a piece of robotic equipment, which provides a more efficient result. ARTAS hair transplant complements the non-incision method as it extracts the follicle more accurately and reduces scarring, making the procedure less stressful.

Female Hair Transplant: hairline correction can improve your image

Female Hair Transplant:

hairline correction can improve your image

Less negative, safe, and more depth to the face. 

Natural-looking, just like your own hair

Have you ever heard of the phrase,

 "Beauty completes itself with the hairline”?

The hairline is that important in creating your image.

Overly narrow forehead can give a stuffy look, and excessively high hairline may make your face look longer and take away your confidence.



Hairline correction is not as simple as moving the hairline or decreasing the forehead area: it is designing a natural hairline that looks just like your own by factoring in the facial structure and the existing hairline. This is what BANOBAGI Hair Transplant Clinic offers.



BANOBAGI’s dedicated hair transplant team, led by Director Kyoungku Lee, has extensive clinical experience and BANOBAGI’s advanced skills: through one-on-one, customized consultation, the team is capable of creating a natural-looking hairline that feels like it was born into your facial type and image.



Theoretically, the ideal facial proportions, when divided into the upper, middle, and lower face, are said to be 1 to 1 to 0.8, respectively. The forehead, roughly one third of the total facial area, can determine the impression you give, based on its shape, size, and proportions. BANOBAGI’s female hairline transplant considers both the functionality and the aesthetics.



Because excessively low or high hair density leads to an unnatural-looking hairline, simply creating a narrower forehead is insufficient: the design must fit the individual image and proportions.



BANOBAGI’s hairline correction, through our delicate baby-hair transplant technology and three-dimensional rearrangement, creates a natural harmony between the facial features and the hairline, giving you a smaller, younger face.

Large forehead, no need to hide it anymore

It gets exposed every time the wind blows, and bangs are a must, even in summer. Worry no more, and let the world see it with BANOBAGI’s forehead reduction/rearrangement. Wide and angular forehead in women makes the face appear larger and can give it a masculine look.



If a wide forehead ruins your facial proportions, if hair loss has widened your forehead, or if your hairline is asymmetrical, BANOBAGI forehead reduction can be effective.

Plastic Surgery After Pregnancy: 
When Can I Get a Mommy Makeover?

Do You Want Your Body Back After Giving Birth? 

Many mothers consider plastic surgery after pregnancy. It is no surprise that after carrying a child in your body for 10 months, your body begins to change. The skin might have lost elasticity, stretch marks form, and certain features might have become less perky. Mothers go through a lot internally to nurture their baby to a healthy birth and often times it is shown through their body. It is normal to want to get your pre-baby body back. With the skills plastic surgeons have, they can help you through surgical procedures. Let’s look at the options and get educated about postpartum plastic surgery. 

What is a mommy makeover?

For mothers, it is not healthy to try to look like how you did before and get surgery after pregnancy too quickly. Take some time to embrace all that you went through to support your newborn child. Often times after birth women do not like how their body looks and rushes into working out and losing weight. They forget their body went through a lot to create a human in their body. It is recommended to wait at least six months after giving birth before having any kind of invasive surgery. A mommy makeover is a term used to describe personalized procedures to correct any unwanted changes that occurred during pregnancy. During your consultation with a surgeon, you can discuss common types of procedures to fix your concerns. 

Tummy Tuck 

When carrying a baby in your stomach your skin is expanding for the entire term of the pregnancy. As a result, after birth, you may have excess skin that may not be admirable after the weight loss. Post-pregnancy, women are reluctant to wear anything exposing their stomach because they don’t like how their stomach looks. After birth, women may get loose skin because the excess skin has nowhere to go even after diet and exercise. A tummy tuck may be the solution because it will tighten your skin and abdominal muscles to support your tummy. It will contour the low abs and at the same time, remove excess skin from the area. 

Breast Lift 

Most women who are in their 30s or 40s request a breast lift after giving birth because the breast expands during milk production. This can happen whether you breastfeed your baby or not.  The skin around the breast tissue is expanding to provide milk but as a result, women are left with flatter and saggier breast. This happens when your ligaments are stretched to support a heavier breast. Surgical lifting can help with this issue. During the breast lift procedure, the unwanted extra skin is removed and the breast tissue is reshaped and lifted. 

Liposuction  

Your body goes through rapid weight gain and the sudden weight loss after the birth of your newborn child. After pregnancy, your body may have developed stubborn fat. The stubborn fat is hard to eliminate even with a strict diet and workout routine. Mothers will result in liposuction to remove the excess fat tissue. The liposuction procedure includes making a small incision in the skin to suction away the fat surrounding the skin and abdominal wall.

Conclusion 

If you are early in your pregnancy and already feel cautious about how you may look after birth, you can start with a healthy diet during pregnancy that is closely monitored by your doctor. Quick tip, breastfeeding can also help you lose additional weight. As with any surgery there comes many risks. There is no need to rush into any surgery after pregnancy. Remember the strength you have provided to carry your child and the imperfections are just signs that shows how much your body has gone through. When your body has recovered, contact our surgical team for a consultation. We look forward to helping you restore your beautiful features.

Ptosis should be improved by eyelid correction surgery, rather than double eyelid surgery

Ptosis should be improved by eyelid correction surgery, rather than double eyelid surgery

If you have symptoms of ptosis, your eyes always look sleepy. In particular, insufficient muscles to lift the eyelids often open eyes with forehead muscles, which can cause wrinkles on the forehead and headaches. In addition, the eyelids cover the pupil, causing poor vision, astigmatism, and amblyopia.

Ptosis may occur due to inherently of weak upper eyelid muscles and may also be caused by acquired factors such as aging, paralysis, and trauma etc. Occasionally, double eyelid surgery can be considered to resolve the ptosis. The ptosis needs to adjust the tension of the muscles through eye correction surgery. Ptosis is a symptom that covers the eyes due to weak muscle strength. If only the double eyelid surgery is performed without having ptosis correction together, functional discomfort would not improve and look of the eyes will likely to be awkward.

Double eyelid surgery is to create a double eyelid that did not exist before. Surgery connects the structures that open the eye and the skin and tissue where the double eyelid line will occur.

On the other hand, eye correction is usually performed when correcting the ptosis or the asymmetrical eyes. In the case of eye correction, the eyelids are partially shortened some of the muscles that lift the eyelids or resected to raise the eyelids. By improving the cause of the ptosis and enhance the strength eye muscle, sleepy looking eyes turn into clearer eyes. In some cases, it may be combined with double eyelid surgery.

Most eyelid corrections have incised directly above the eyelids. Incisional ptosis correction is suitable if your eyelids are loose or if you have severe ptosis. It can also help reduce eyelid fat and muscle mass.

In contrast, non-incisional ptosis correction is surgery to reduce the length of muscles by binding a part of the eye muscles by putting a thread inside the eyelids without incision. The shorter the muscle length, the strength of the eye muscles increases. In particular, non-incision ptosis correction has the advantage of shorter recovery period than incision method. Although there are individual differences, the recovery period is usually about 5 to 7 days, and the surgical site is almost recovered at least one month later. 

However, unless you are an expert, it is difficult to know your condition accurately, it is important to consult with your doctor to select the most suitable surgical method and discuss the results after surgery.
