How A Burglar Used Korean Plastic Surgery For His Misdoings

Written by Seoul TouchUp. Posted in Asian Plastic Surgery, Facial Bone Surgery, Facial Plastic Surgery, Korean Plastic Surgery, Plastic Surgery News

burglar-plastic-surgery

This is probably a one in a million kind of incident to happen, but lately there has been news of a burglar who got away from his misdeeds through a rather peculiar method: Korean plastic surgery. You’d think that only hip and competitive youngsters would opt for surgery in today’s image-conscious Asia, but no! There are burglars who have decided to advance their careers, too! They, too, also desire to perfect their craft! The art of burglary now goes hand In hand with plastic surgery.
Reported by the Korea Herald, this burglar fellow claimed to have gotten surgery because he wanted to feel better about his shortness. So what did he do? Robbed people! A total of 87 incidents during April and December of last year. For most people, jawline surgery or osteogenesis (making bones lengthier) would cost an arm and a leg. Oh, but not this guy because he had all the money in the world to get those surgeries done. From his robberies, he had gained a total of $480,000 worth of goods.

If we look at this lovely chart that shows the average cost of Korean plastic surgery, this guy could’ve done jawline surgery for ninety-six times if he so felt like it!

The Vampire Face Lift

Written by Seoul TouchUp. Posted in Anti-Aging Treatment, Asian Plastic Surgery, Facial Plastic Surgery, Korean Plastic Surgery

vampire facelift in korea

Korea is always very quick to pick up the latest plastic surgery trends and to offer its patients the highest surgery quality possible. The Vampire face lift is the newest plastic surgery trend for anti-aging procedures. Although this is a procedure that you can find in other parts of the world as well, it is no surprise that Korea has found a way to make it extra special, and to cater it specifically to patients coming from Asian countries.

A QUICK OUTLINE OF THE PROCEDURE

The Vampire face lift is the newest anti aging surgery, and it is also one of the most natural ways to do it! First, a small amount of blood will be drawn from your arm, and that blood will then be placed in a Selphyl machine. It spins the blood at a very high speed, which separates the platelets, which are then injected at various points of your face. These platelets help start new collagen productions within your skin, which makes it look more plump and younger, and has also proven to be a great way to fill out wrinkles for a longer period of time. It is not a permanent procedure, but many patients reported that they could go a full year before thinking that they may need to do it again. The great thing about the Vampire face lift is that it does not involve any incisions, and once the collagen runs out, your face returns to its original look, which is great for people who do not want to make a drastic and permanent change to their features. Also, because this is not a complex procedure, there is no recovery time. The patient simply leaves the clinic as soon as they are done, and then their own skin does the rest of the work in the next few days by producing more collagen.

3 Reasons to Undergo the Korean Plastic Surgery Buccal Fat Removal Procedure

Written by Chelsea Kim. Posted in Facial Plastic Surgery

korean plastic surgery buccal fat removal One pesky problem when it comes to facial cosmetic surgeries is buccal fat. This is the fatty tissue that collects in our cheeks. An excess of this fatty tissue produces what you'd call, 'chipmunk cheeks'.  One way to remove this is through Korean plastic surgery buccal fat removal to be specific.

What can this procedure do exactly and what are its benefits?

It may help with your weight loss plan

Although ‘chipmunk cheeks’ are mostly hereditary, there are certain everyday life features that can worsen them. Being overweight is one of the main reasons why fatty tissue in your cheeks would increase to a size that is larger than usual. The problem with this is that no amount of facial exercises can burn this particular fatty tissue. So even if you have managed to lose a lot of extra weight, chances are, your face may still hold that extra lumpiness. This facial contouring surgery helps patient can eliminate this problem.

 

Chew without trouble

Too much buccal fat causes people to bite down on their cheeks when they are eating. The result of this annoying and painful process is injury to the gums and mouth that takes a few days to heal. Through buccal fat removal, the problem is eliminated.
Also, those who have had jaw reduction surgery often complain that their cheeks have become saggy, but this is because of the buccal fat that was not removed in the process and has now taken a different shape.

The procedure is minimally invasive

Being all around minimally invasive, it does not leave patients with a scar. This is because the incision is made inside the mouth on the side of the cheeks, so when the small cut heals it can no longer be seen. If successful, patients are left will smaller cheeks, and yet their skin is still smooth and without any evidence of surgery.

Are you thinking of getting buccal fat removal done? You may or may not want to get plastic surgery in Korea. All in all, this procedure can be done in other parts of the world, too, and is not a uniquely Asian-specific surgery.

Get Fuller Lips with the Korean Plastic Surgery Lip Augmentation Procedure

Written by Chelsea Kim. Posted in Facial Plastic Surgery

korean plastic surgery lip augmentationWomen with fuller, plumper are often perceived as younger-looking. Korean plastic surgery lip augmentation helps people with thin lips obtain a fuller look. While some people are naturally born with thin lips, others notice that their lips lose their volume with aging. This is because collagen levels in the lips decrease and the skin becomes less firm.

Is it for you?

While it is not particularly on the trendy list of procedures in Asia, according to plastic surgery statistics, if you'd like to plump up your pout, lip augmentation may be your solution. Patients notice a great improvement after the completion of the surgery, which is very evident in before and after Korean plastic surgery pictures. Also, it's always good to first make an appointment with your GP and surgeon, to evaluate your health condition before jumping to it.

How is the procedure performed?

There are various ways to achieve fuller lips through surgery, and the choice depends on the patient’s wishes, as well as their current health and natural lip shape. Fat transfer injections are a popular option, because they are a natural way to remove fat from other parts of your body, process it, and then inject it into your lips. Additionally, patients can also choose to use fillers that are made from natural or synthetic biocompatible material. However, these results are only temporary, and would need to be repeated again in the future once the lips return to their original shape. There are patients who choose this option if they are not entirely certain that they wish to have lip augmentation surgery, because they can easily wait for enough time to pass before their lips return to normal. For more permanent results, lip implants are used to add volume to the lips. They are inserted through tiny incisions in the corners of the mouth and are made out of either natural or synthetic material.

Aftercare and Recovery

For injections, there is barely any recovery period involved. In the hands of thebest plastic surgeons in Korea, if there is any downtime involved, it should only persist for a day or two – without further complications.Using the more invasive technique would require a longer recovery time. The lips will be swollen in the beginning, and it will likely take up to eight weeks for a full recovery. After the first two weeks, patients will be able to return to work and resume their daily activities. However, engaging in vigorous physical activities during the first 8 weeks of recovery, is not recommended here.

Looking Younger with Korean Plastic Surgery Wrinkle Treatment

Written by Chelsea Kim. Posted in Facial Plastic Surgery

korean plastic surgery wrinkle treatmentThe Korean plastic surgery wrinkle treatment helps get rid of the wrinkles that naturally appear on a person’s skin over time. The natural appearance of wrinkles is a direct result of ageing and the skin becoming looser. However, there are other factors that can cause wrinkles to appear at a younger age. These include heavy medical procedures, sun booths, sun burns, and incorrect use of skin products. Although fine wrinkles can be reduced through the use of creams, heavier wrinkles need the help of facial cosmetic surgeries in order to disappear.

Different Options To Choose From

There are different ways to get rid of unwanted wrinkles. The option that is right for you depends on how deep and noticeable your wrinkles are. For very fine wrinkles, special creams can be used on a long-term basis, which greatly reduce the size of the small wrinkles and can even make them disappear completely for a certain period of time. However, wrinkles that have been developing for a longer period of time would need a more intense form of wrinkle treatment. These come in the form of botox injections. But there is more than just one type of botox, and plastic surgery statistics show that patients rarely know the difference between them.

Patients need to make sure that they have spoken to their chosen doctor and that they understand which botox treatment will be used in their case. Although this is rarely the case, even botox can sometimes not be enough to get rid of wrinkles. In this case the Korean plastic surgery wrinkle treatment is administered in the form of Korean skin surgery, which is specifically designed to get rid of wrinkles. This type of surgery involves the use of very small incisions that will help tighten the skin. It is the last option to choose when it comes to getting rid of wrinkles, but perhaps it is good for patients to know that they do have that option.

Post-surgery

There are different at home after care programs that the patient must follow, depending on which procedure was chosen for them in the first place. If anti-aging creams were enough, then the patient will likely need to continue using them for a longer period of time, making sure that as many of the wrinkles as possible have disappeared. Botox often requires soft at-home massages of the skin to insure that the botox is spread evenly. However, these massages should always be done under the strict instructions of a doctor and never according to the patient’s own thoughts and improvisations. If an actual operation was required, then the aftercare program is similar to that of any other operation. Patients are required to relaxed for about a week and to make sure that the scars are healing properly, and will also be required to come back for a check up with their doctor in the future.
