Just as fashion trends change, trends are now also shifting in facial features and body shape. In the past, a Western-looking face was often considered the standard of a stylish and attractive appearance, but gradually, regardless of age or gender, natural beauty and a gentle, youthful image have become the mainstream. Reflecting this trend, even in the new year of 2019, many people are visiting plastic surgery clinics to improve complexes about their appearance or refine their image.
Among them, the eyes and nose are areas that determine the first impression of the face and the overall image a person gives, so they tend to be highly preferred among various plastic surgery procedures. This is because, even without shaving bone, subtle changes alone can be expected to have a significant effect on improving the overall image and impression.
However, because these areas play such an important role in one’s image, hastily deciding on surgery simply with the thought of becoming more handsome or prettier may lead to unsatisfactory results or side effects. Therefore, it is necessary to carefully consider the medical team’s expertise and know-how before surgery.
For eye surgery, depending on the individual’s eye shape, length, skin thickness, and fat condition, various surgical methods such as natural adhesion, partial incision, non-incision suture method, full incision, ptosis correction, and canthoplasty can be used to create clearer and larger-looking eyes. However, it is a relatively complex surgery because it must be performed only after accurately diagnosing the patient’s natural eye shape, eyeball size, depth, and distance from the eyebrows.
Nose surgery is often thought of simply as raising the height of the nasal bridge or lifting the nasal tip. However, when evaluating people considering rhinoplasty, there are various nasal shapes, such as a deviated nose with bent internal cartilage, a hump nose caused by developed nasal bone or excessive growth from acquired injury, and a bulbous nose with congenitally short skin and cartilage. Therefore, if one wants to improve toward a softer, more youthful image, the height, angle, and width of the nose must first be assessed to design a suitable nose shape, so it is recommended to undergo surgery with a board-certified plastic surgeon.
Dr. Hwang Ho, director of Hyundai Aesthetic Surgery, which won the grand prize in the eye and nose surgery category at the 11th Medical Asia 2018 last year, explained, “In fact, the theory of eye surgery, which creates a double-eyelid line for small eyes and combines canthoplasty to make the eyes look larger, and the theory of nose surgery, which raises a low nasal bridge by inserting an implant and gathers a wide nasal tip or lifts a low nasal tip, are the same. However, if surgery is performed based only on theoretical surgical methods without sufficient experience, everyone’s eyes and noses inevitably end up looking the same.”
Dr. Hwang added, “What matters is the medical team’s extensive experience in drawing out greater results based on theory. Only when surgery is performed with a design tailored to the individual, taking into account the person’s eye and nose shape, proportions, and other factors, can one expect ideal results that suit the individual rather than the same standardized look.”
