Hello, I’m Dr. Jo Hyun-woo of 입체성형외과.
Occasionally, articles about contouring accidents appear,
and as a specialized facial contouring clinic, it is deeply regrettable.
So today, I’ve brought a topic on a place that does facial contouring safely and well.
Facial Contouring, a Place That Does It Safely and Properly
Any kind of plastic surgery or procedure must be safe.
Because if I am not there, there is no point in having the surgery.
People undergo surgery to overcome complexes and live with a prettier, more attractive appearance,
but if an accident happens during surgery, it means nothing.

The medical team is the most important.
There is a reason why specialists exist in each field: the people who have done it many times do it well.
The medical team’s diverse experience becomes skill, and that is what makes them veterans.

Is it a factory-style hospital with no proxy surgery?
There are truly many large plastic surgery clinics in Korea. Various directors perform surgeries according to their respective specialties,
and you need to think about whether the doctor you are having surgery with is really trustworthy, or whether you are simply choosing a slightly cheaper place because the consultation manager is friendly and the doctor is average.

Operating room CCTV
Many hospitals are reportedly not in favor of making CCTV installation mandatory.
If there is nothing troubling, why oppose the installation of CCTV?
If you ask yourself that question, you will likely find the answer.
Our hospital has installed CCTV throughout all areas of the clinic, including the operating room, so that every process can be transparently confirmed.
In addition, we precisely diagnose the bones through the latest 3D CT, and based on those results, we carefully plan and carry out the surgery.
The points above were about choosing a safe hospital for facial contouring.
From here on, I will show examples of changes after contouring surgery.
When patients come in, they often ask how much smaller the face can become, how much can be reduced in contouring, cheekbones, and similar areas.
During the consultation, the surgical direction is determined depending on whether the patient wants a natural facial line or a doll-like face line.
Through CT imaging, the facial bones are analyzed, and for those who ask to be reduced as much as possible, the surgery is performed up to the nerve safety limit.
If you look at the photo below, it is the CT and photo of an actual patient from 입체 who wanted a slim, doll-like line.

The patient below is an actual patient who underwent surgery up to the nerve safety limit along the cheekbones and jawline.
The photos above all show people who received facial contouring surgery at 입체성형외과,
and they are patients who are 6 months to more than 2 years post-op.
You can see that they all have slim face lines without sagging cheeks.
I have more than 16 years of experience in contouring surgery, and I thoroughly check the progress for more than one year after surgery to confirm whether there are any side effects. As a result, even after several years, patients can maintain a natural appearance without worrying about side effects.
Thank you ^^
