[Get to Know] Korean Face Contouring - Paranasal Augmentation

Get to Know 7:55:00 AM

Paranasal augmentation is a surgical method to redress skeletal nasolabial fold (smile line) depression through various ways. It is widely known as ‘Pyriform Surgery’ which rejuvenates old-looking face by giving volume on sunken nasolabial folds.

This Korean face contouring surgery is recommended to those who: have sunken nasolabial folds beside the nostrils, look old due to deep nasolabial folds, also have relatively protruded mouth due to wrinkles around mouth and smile line.

Surgical Methods of Paranasal Augmentation:

1. Implant Insertion

Implant insertion is the fundamental method which enhances volume on the nasolabial folds. Incisions are made on the intra-oral areas and the materials frequently used are Silicone, Goretex and Alloderm etc. Custom-made implants does not only result to natural surgery outcomes, but they also could be easily removed in case of revision surgeries.

Wonjin's know-hows of Implant Insertion

- 1:1 custom-made implant Wonjin analyzes the overall facial ratio and the bone structure before customizing the implant. Custom-made implants can prevent implant dislocation and can result to a more natural impression.

- Attached deeply inside the skin For natural volume, the implant must be inserted deep inside the skin layer. Wonjin accurately measures the skin thickness to fixate the implant deep inside and therefore, natural volume and shape can be achieved.

- Fixation on 3 sites Previous pyriform surgery fixated only 2 sites of the implant, which increased the possibility of implant dislocation. Wonjin fixates the 3 sites of the implant to reduce such detachments.

2. Fat Grafting

This is a method wherein fats are extracted from other parts of the body such as thighs, buttocks abdomen areas, and engrafted on sunken facial areas. As fats are autologous, the possibility of complication is remarkably low. Once the fat is engrafted, the result is semi-permanent and you can have another procedures done if you think you need more volume. The recovery is quick and there is no scar left as it will be injected through fine syringe.

Autologous Fat Grafting Surgery Method

- Fat extraction

The fat will be collected from abdomen or thigh with small cannula. The amount of the fat extracted is not a lot so it won’t change the size of extracted area.

- Centrifugation

The extracted fat will be centrifuged through centrifugal separator. This procedure just collects pure fats by removing dirty fats, wastes and other impurities.

- Fat injection

The collected pure fat will be injected to the area where the volume needs. It will be injected little by little under the skin layer and muscle to make natural looking.

3. Filler Injection

Filler injection is recommended in case of minor cases. It does not require a long recovery time as it does not have severe swelling, bruising and scar, and immediate return to daily activities is allowed.

The Advantages of Filler Injection

- Satisfying result without surgery

- Immediate effect after the treatment

- Using Filler approved by FDA in USA

- Invisible scar by using fine needle for injection

It is vital to choose the correct implant type and size for best rhinoplasty in Korea. Since everyone has different nose bone size and skin tissue type, it is best to compare pros and cons of each implant and choose the best one.

Ultra Soft Silicon

- It is 1:1 custom made and designed

- It enables you to feel more natural and comfortable without any feeling of irritation after surgery.

- It provides an effect of three-dimensional line from every angles (front and sides)

- It is very elasticated and has flexibility

- It is upgraded version of pre-existing silicon implants proved safety

Silicone

- The most common type of implants used across the world, tested and certified for its clinical safety

- Shape deformation or absorption is uncommon even after a long time

- It has low infection occurrence rate since it rarely deforms in the body and does not cause irritation

- Ideal nose shape can be achieved by finely curving the structure

- The shape of the nose can be finely sculptured with solid support strength

Gore-tex

- It is suitable to use on thin skin

- There are micro holes on the implant to allow for tissue adhesion

- It has a smoother surface than silicone and provides a more natural appearance

Silitex

- It is a hybrid implant of silicone and gore-tex

- Shape deformation or absorption rarely occurs even after a long time

- It has a low infection occurrence rate since it rarely deforms in the body or cause irritation reactions

- Ideal nose shape can be achieved by finely curving the structure

- It is suitable for men who have moderate or thick skin

- It can make pointy nose shape with good support power

Autologous Tissue

Autologous tissue used for best rhinoplasty in Korea, is the tissue collected from individual’s own body, so it has the advantages of low infection rate and providing natural shape. It is very safe implant that does not cause any problems such as skin gets thinner or implant stiffness, and it functions very importantly, which is usually used on nasal tip affecting the result of surgery.

Septum Cartilage

- This is the most widely used autologous tissue. It is the nose pillar that is separating inner nostril space inside of nose

- It is usually used for nasal tip surgery and few chance of being seen through skin

- It is suitable for reconstructing nasal septum as it is flat formed with high bearing capacity

- It is easy to extract and transplant cartilage inside of nose during surgery, thus no more need for another incision

Ear Cartilage

- It is more elastic than septum cartilage, so allows to make nose tip more natural

- It is usually used for nasal tip surgery and few chance of being seen through skin

- It is safe since it is collected from the back of ear where it has almost no functional role

Rib Cartilage

- This is used when patient’s nose gets infection from several times of surgery, or nose gets shortened due to capsular contracture or nasal tip retraction

- It is safe since cartilage amount is abundant and has low infection rate

- Refined and pointy nose tip can be achieved since it has low absorption rate but provides strong support

Autologous Skin

- This is the fat that lays on the outermost layer of skin so it has low chance of side effect. It is collected from the thigh area under the hip

- It is only used once it requires additional correction after surgery

Autologous Fat

- It has low chance of side effects since it is extracted from patient’s own thigh under the hip

- It is only used once it requires additional correction after surgery

- This is fibrous layer covering outer of muscle. It is safe and less side effects occur since it is extracted from inner of scalp or legs

- Since this is very thin and fluffy tissue, it is used for the purpose of embracing cartilage or implant

- It prevents symptom of depletion of skin layer and nasal tip redness

Artificial Tissue

Renaderm

- This is a material that minimized side effect by eliminating any irritating cells that might cause rejection reaction on human dermis layer

- You may achieve very natural result since it leaves almost no surgery scar and causes no visible implant phenomenon due to thinning skin tissue

Alloderm

- This is a material with only substrates collected after eliminating cells from human dermas skin, thus has no immune reaction when transplanted

- It is soft as skin to provide very natural nose bridge and tip shape

Medpor

- There are micro holes on the implant thus provide good adhesion with surrounding tissue and skin

- Usually, it is inserted to make high and refined nose bridge. (However, it is not chosen first but used as a subsidiary material if septum cartilage is not available)

Filler
