Non-surgical procedure

Difference between Botox and Filler

Nobody cannot stop the aging-process,

but the trace of time, "Wrinkle" can be improved somewhat by med-tech.

In the past, in order to remove the wrinkles, 

the saggy skin was pulled up and resected,

that it would cause different side effects.

But now, those can be straighten somewhat by injection treatment

which is very simple and non-surgical. 

Botox and filler are the most typical injection treatments to enhance wrinkles.

Both methods are very simple and there are no need to worry about complication 

since swelling and infection are rarely occur.

There is no recovery period so daily activities are possible right after the procedure 

and the effect lasts usually six months to one year. 

Because of various things in common, 

some people think botox and fillers are same procedures, 

but in fact, those are totally different procedures.

Difference Between Botox and Filler

Botox can paralyze the muscles 

to either reduce their size or straighten facial wrinkles.

It is very effective to improve the wrinkles on glabella, crow's feet etc.

Also in case of square jaw, it can be used to paralyze masticatory muscle surrounding teeth

to reduce their thickness and volume to make the face slender and smaller.

Filler is a method that inflat depressions caused by wrinkles,

it smooths out deep skin gabs made by nasolabial folds and glabella wrinkles,

or adds volume to make flat nose bridge higher.

In the affluent district of Gangnam in Seoul 

where plastic surgery and dermatology clinics 

have opened shop in almost every street block, 

Korean men are going further than simply maintenance.

"Most popular is nose surgery. Men consider their noses as symbol of sexuality. 

So they like higher nose bones to look more attractive like Westerners," 

said Dr. Byung-Gun Kim, director of BK Plastic Surgery Hospital.

The standard of beauty has evolved from strong masculine 

to a softer look with small and slender face features. 

"They're called 'flower men' referring to good looking guys 

in Korean dramas or movies with feminine features," Kim said.

Get rid of dark circles under your eyes

*How to get rid of dark circles under your eyes*

Good Day!!
BK wants to share its knowledege on how to get rid of those gloomy dark circles under your eyes.

As you know, dark circles are not paricularly helpful at making you look cheery or younger. Personally, I have to bother myself with the dark circle concealer every time I put on make up. 

But later in the day when my careful make up starts to get alittle messy, dark circles never forget to reveal themselves. It is annoying, but there is a way to deal with dark circles it turns out.

Causes of dark circle

Dark circles used to be seen among people in their 40s or above but nowadays everyone who sits in front of the computer can have them. Fat build up in eye lids is the most common cause otherwise but they can come from  problematic kidney, liver, lymphokinesis, sleep habit, stress, menstruation, etc  Poorly removed make up doesnt help either.

How to avoid forming dark circles to begin with -

+Never forgot to put on UV blocker before exposing yourself to the sunlight

+Carefully remove any make up residues from around your eyes, thoroughly wash your face, and finally keep your face moist.

+Wearing contact lens too long tires your eyes. Also, try not to sit in front of a computer too long.

+Give your eyes time to exercise or relax when they feel tired.

+Try not to rub your eyes so often - it can stimulate pigment build up.

How to get rid of dark circles -

Dark circles are caused by more than one reason but home rememdies or eye cream wont completely remove them. If  fat build up in the lower eyelids is casting shadows underneath, they need to be reduced - it's called eyebags removal. But if dark circles come from lack of fat build up, then fat transplant should lightens up your skin and gets rid of those shadows.

Fat cell relocation is one way of managing dark circles but there are many other methods for different circumstances, from which BK will help you make the best choice.

Enhancing your appearance with Nosewing Reduction

ADVANCED EXPERTISE IN NOSE SURGERY;  BK NOSEWING REDUCTION

Hello folks! Beauty Girl's here again!

How's thing these days? I just wanna say 

Don't forget to apply sun block cream every 2hrs. 

Try to protect your skin against UV rays! :)

Anyway, I'm going to introduce nosewing reduction today which requires high level technique.

There are two different types of nosewing reduction surgery. 

BK, has advanced expertise in nose surgery, may apply either Alar Base Reduction or Nostril Fastening to make your nose look beautiful and smaller 

Alar base reduction

First, wide nosewing is often a result of excessive skin or subcutaneous tissues. Alar base reduction involves excision of excessive skin at the base of nosewing, which reduces the size of nostrils.

Excision scars, formed between the nostrils and cheeks, are nearly invisible after 2~3 months.

Nostril Fastening

Nostrils that are wide at the bottom can be tightened with sutures after shallow resection has been made around the alar base.  Scars are formed between the bottom of nose and philtrum, making it difficult to notice under the nose shadow.

People Start to Do Anti-ageing Skincare in Their Late 20s?!!

People Start to Do Anti-ageing Skincare in Their Late 20s?!!

A lot of women try to take better care of their skin due to prolonged hot and dry spell during summer season. Although people apply many types of cream on their skin, moisturizing does not always help to keep our skin soft, and even worse, people may have dry flaky skin. In fact, these conditions can lead to forming more wrinkles. It is inevitable, and almost impossible to naturally decrease the number of wrinkles as aging. So this is why people in their early twenties are so interested in anti-ageing even if we think they are young.

Anti-ageing has been highly recognized as a necessary treatment for those aged 30 or over. In fact, the process of skin aging starts at middle age around 25. The process and its effects are greatly influenced by environmental factors, for example, getting stressed when people work under pressure.

A twenty eight year old female said she’s been having Botox injection regularly to rejuvenate her appearance. While she’s working with many people, she found that someone looks older. Meanwhile, the other looks younger, they are the same age as her though. And she also mentioned “It was a good decision that I started to look after my appearance intensively and will take my time for quiet reflection and careful self-assessment as a good impression could be one of my competitive things of mine.

It is important to take good care of ourselves by learning about anti-aging and putting it into practice as soon as possible. As mentioned above, it is hard to decrease the number of wrinkles which you’ve already had by doing nothing. You’d better take some action in order to protect your skin against skin aging.

The natural aging process, also known as the beginning of the ageing process, is a continuous process that normally begins in our late-20s. Repetitive facial movements actually lead to fine lines and wrinkles. These could be permanently etched and difficult to avoid with unconscious awareness. So Botox may be the best option to halt the development of wrinkles because effects can be seen very shortly after the procedure. However, it does not last long so it is required to have the injection regularly.

Dr. Kim Byung Gun, director of BK Plastic Surgery Hospital, said “Many people think that Botox injection is just one of cosmetic applications that targets for people in their 40s and 50s. According to latest trends, the patients’ average age is getting younger because Botox is effective in preventing development of deep wrinkle by paralyzing facial muscles.

Dr. Kim also mentioned it is simple and suitable for those who don’t have free time to have surgery but we should be aware of its side effects since some of beauty salons and dermatology clinics perform using some of Botox injections, which are not permitted to apply, without a license. For these reasons, he advised that patients get consulted with abundantly experienced doctors.
