No.10 Cosmetic essay by Dr. Lee Jin soo- The natural beauty

Image
"I want to be changed naturally" "I want to be changed as much as I can" That's what I hear a lot when I'm right before the surgery. I guess many people think that 'being natural' is to change slightly, and 'being obvious' is a lot of change. But it's a misconception. You can achieve natural look with a lot of change. The word 'natural' doesn't mean changing a little, but it means that the change is not awkward or doesn't come with a fixed mark. On the contrary, 'Being obvious' is with a fixed mark. Even if you change it a little bit, it doesn't look like it was the original shape and it's a sign that's been altered. It's called the "Plastic Monster" in Korean , which means a person who has a lot of plastic surgeries on one's face. What I'm looking for is natural beauty, and natural beauty is needed as much as possible for optimum beauty. But it's important that the ...

No. 9 Cosmetic essay by Dr. Lee Jin soo- Please cut it all under the nerve line!

Facial contouring is a surgery that changes facial shape by trimming the bones of the face. In order for facial bones to be trimmed and changed, the cartilage outside the bone (skin, fat, muscle, etc.) must respond. If you want to change your face, the cartilage must react, and vice versa, the maximum amount that the cartilage responds to is the maximum amount of effect If you cut the bone as much as you can, you'll think your face will change to the fullest, but it's not. If the cartilage responds, cutting the bone doesn't fully reflect the shape of the bone and creating the remaining cartilage, it creates a stretched shape. During the consultation, people ask, "Do I have a high nerve line?" In the lower jaw bone, there's a hypnotic nerve called the mandibular nerve and the nerves that are responsible for the sensation of the lower lip, and if you take an X-ray of your face, it goes from the middle to the lower jaw bone, and the height of yo...

No. 8 Cosmetic essay by Dr. Lee Jin soo- Does life change when you change your face?

Image
When you see an object, you feel it in its visual image. This is called an impression. Of course there are impressions when you look at people. When plastic surgery changes your face, it makes a different impression on everyone who treats you. Different impressions appear in different reactions, and the sum of those different reactions changes the life. It's easy to predict that plastic surgery will change one's life if your impression is changed well and make a good impression on others. I've done a lot of plastic surgery for the cases in TV series 'Let Me in'. In fact, I've appeared in a variety of makeover programs other than Let Me in, but since it   has a high profile, so let me give you an example of Let Me in. Let Me in is a program that selects people with difficult situations due to poor appearance and improves their appearance through plastic surgery. If you've ever seen this program, you've probably found that it's amazing how much ...

There's someone you need to play orchestra music. He is the conductor who increases the perfection of the music by harmonizing the music of each part. No matter how well you play each part, it can't be good music if any part in the music is in discord. So when we talk about orchestras, the first person mentioned is the conductor. And the ability of a conductor is a very important factor that determines the level of orchestra music. Even in a charming and beautiful face, harmony is the most important factor. Therefore, people who are considering plastic surgery must pay attention to this harmony. Pay attention not only to the areas you are considering, but to different areas as well. To do that, you have to look at the whole face in a comprehensive way and evaluate the extent and extent of deviations from the overall harmony. Afterwards, you must set a large boundary for each area of change, and then make a detailed surgical plan for the desired area and perform the su...

No. 6 Cosmetic essay by Dr. Lee Jin soo- The gap between the rich and the poor

I specialize in double jaw surgery and facial contouring surgery, which deals with the skeleton inside the face. I change the shape of the face by trimming the underlying bone in the face. To make the result to be exposed to the outside, the cartilage covering the bone must reflect the changes in the face bone. Therefore, the better the degree of reflection of the cartilage, the better results of facial bone surgery are. Here, the cartilage is the tissue on the bone, and the skin, the subcutaneous fat, the muscles so on are the main components. We usually see skin when we look outside, so from now on; I will the cartilage as "skin". There are two conditions for skin that reflect the results of face bone surgery. The first is to be thin. It's actually a thin layer of the skin, and if it's thick enough, it's less likely to be reflected on the outside when bone surgery is done. If you compare it to a piece, it's a delicate and cool sculpture. You c...

No. 5 Cosmetic essay by Dr. Lee Jin soo -The face you see every day is not your real face.

Mirror image: The image of an object reflected in the mirror. It is an inverted image of the actual shape to the left and right. The face you see most of your daily lives is not your own. Because we usually look at our face in the mirror. The mirror doesn't show the real thing as it is, but it's actually reversing from the real thing. This is called a mirror image. Then there's a moment when you're seeing with your real face. It's time when you look at the picture. Have you ever seen your face look strange when you look at your pictures? The reason is that you usually look at your face in a mirror, so your face that you are familiar with is actually a mirror that has reversed your face to the left and right sides. Theoretically, objects that are completely symmetrical to the left and right are the same as real and mirror images. The more symmetrical the face is, the similar to the face in the mirror. Conversely, the more asymmetrical the face is, th...

Humans have two eyes. If you look at things with your eyes, you can see the three-dimensional vision of objects. What we see with our eyes in real life is three-dimensional. But if you take a picture of them, or if you look at them on a regular TV or monitor, you see a two-dimensional image in a plane. When shooting a movie, two cameras are put side by side, as you can see with your left and right eyes. If you look at this later, you will see the image taken on the left with only the left eye and the image taken on the right with the right eye only. This is a technology that uses polarized lenses. When you watch a 3D movie in a theater, you'll see glasses with polarized lenses. A stereoscopic screen is spotlighted because it gives a more visual and realistic impression than a plane. I still remember the vividness of the ball thrown by a pitcher in a three-dimensional video I saw at a fair when I was a kid. I think it's understandable in the same context that on...
