  Nowadays, the obligation to wear masks indoors has almost disappeared. Consequently, there is a growing interest in facial shapes that were previously hidden by masks. Particularly, there has been increased interest in the mouth area, which was entirely covered by masks. Surgical procedures for improving the face can be broadly categorized into two types. First is surgery that refines the outer contour of the face, known as facial contouring surgery. This includes surgeries such as cheekbone reduction, jaw reduction (square jaw surgery), and chin surgery (V-line surgery). The second type involves surgeries performed on the upper jaw (maxilla) and lower jaw (mandible), including orthognathic surgery and protrusion surgery. Especially these days, there is significant interest in surgeries related to the mouth, such as orthognathic surgery and protrusion surgery. For those considering orthognathic or protrusion surgery to address dissatisfaction with their mouth, there are essential con

  Orthognathic surgery, also known as jaw surgery, involves correcting the relationship between the upper and lower jaw, known as occlusion. Occlusion is crucial for effective chewing, as the upper and lower teeth need to fit together properly. A well-aligned occlusion is referred to as a normal occlusion, while an improper fit is termed malocclusion. Malocclusion can result from two main factors: issues with the teeth themselves or misalignment of the jawbone to which the teeth are attached. When the problem is primarily related to the teeth, orthodontic treatments are used to correct malocclusion. However, in cases where there are abnormalities in the position of the jawbone, such as an underbite or facial asymmetry, orthognathic surgery is necessary to change the functional position of the jawbone and correct malocclusion. A common misconception is that undergoing orthognathic surgery alone can fully correct malocclusion associated with jawbone misalignment. Orthognathic surgery is

The forehead occupies a significant area of the face, and when it is broader than average, it can create an imbalance and make the face appear larger than its actual size. Aging can lead to forehead widening due to hair loss, giving the impression of aging. Moreover, individuals with a broad forehead face restrictions in various hairstyles. As people age, eyebrows may sag, making an already wide forehead appear even broader. A common surgical solution for sagging eyebrows is Endoscopic Forehead Augmentation. Although a more extensive incision using the scalp lifting method yields superior results, many opt for smaller incisions with endoscopic procedures due to concerns about visible scars on the scalp. For those considering both forehead reduction and forehead augmentation, an effective approach involves performing forehead augmentation using the incision made during forehead reduction. This method provides excellent results in lifting both the eyebrows and forehead without additional

  The coronavirus is persisting for an extended period. Now, masks have become an integral part of our daily lives. Observing almost everyone on the streets wearing masks, I am reminded of the painter Richard Prince. RichardPrince Masquerade nurse ink jet and acrylic on canvas 203.2 × 116.8 cm 2004 This piece is one I saw at last year's 'LETTER Exhibition' held by Seoul Auction. Richard Prince gained fame with his 'Cowboy' series, a direct parody of the 'Marlboro' cigarette advertisements. His practice of rephotographing other people's photos has given rise to the genre in the art world known as 'Rephotograph.' When I mentioned this artist's rephotograph to an acquaintance, they immediately exclaimed, "That's so cheeky!" Indeed, Prince has faced legal challenges, including a trial for photo appropriation (initially acquitted in the first trial, but the decision was overturned in the second and third trials). In the 2000s,

When people think of the face shape or facial contour, they often envision the facial skeleton composed of facial bones. However, the actual face shape is a combination of the facial skeleton and the surrounding soft tissues, including skin, subcutaneous fat, fascia, and muscles. While the facial skeleton is not directly visible, the surrounding soft tissues, especially the skin, play a crucial role in determining the perceived face shape. This is precisely why considerations of both bones and the surrounding soft tissues are essential when planning facial contouring surgeries such as cheekbone reduction, square jaw surgery, or chin surgery. If only the bones are focused on, without considering the surrounding soft tissues, there is a higher likelihood of a discrepancy between the expected and actual results after surgery. A common desire expressed during consultations for facial contouring surgery is to have a more defined jawline when viewed from the side. However, it's crucial t

  The faces of men and women can be distinguished by various features, and one significant characteristic is the degree of development of the eyebrow bones. the protrusion of eyeborn bones is a distinctive feature of men when they are well-developed.  In anatomical terms, this area is called the supraorbital ridge, commonly referred to as the eyebrow bone in this text, referring to the bone in the area where the eyebrows are located. In the case of women, when the eyebrow bones are developed, they may appear more like men, leading to a desire for correction. Even in men, if the eyebrow bones protrude excessively, it can give a strong impression, prompting a desire for correction.     When the space between the eyes and the forehead is significantly developed,  If the protrusion of the eyebrow bones is not serve, there are methods to cover the relatively flat area above the eyebrow bones, This can be achieved through techniques such as fat grafting and the use of fillers. However, when

  It seems that almost everyone is familiar with the term 'double-jaw surgery'. However, due to the proliferation of indiscriminate information about double-jaw surgery, many misconceptions and biases seem to exist.  In this essay, we will take a detailed look at these misunderstandings and prejudices.  1- Is Double-Jaw surgery a specific surgical procedure name?  Double-Jaw surgery is not a specific surgical procedure name. It literally refers to surgery performed on both jaws. When translated to korean, '양 악' means 'bith jaws'. Thus, double-jaw surgery simply denotes a surgery conducted on both jaws, without specifying the exact surgical method. while the general public may think of the lower part under the mouth when referring to the term 'jaw', anatomically, the term 'jaw' refers to the bone that includes the teeth. therefore, the upper jawbone containing the upper teeth is called upper jawbone (maxilla), and the lower jawbone containing the
