[BK Plastic Surgery] Have you heard about Forehead Lift ?

 Have you heard about Forehead Lift ? 

Today, we will talk about forehead lift. We have previously shared about face lift, 
and I know some of you may have thought
"I don't have wrinkles entirely on my face. It's just my forehead that bothers me."
Regardless of age, wrinkles on forehead are easily formed due to
such habits of raising eyebrows or frowning frequently.

Wrinkles on your forehead can very much be frustrating
because it makes you look old which no woman on this earth sincerely desires.
Today, let's look at BK forehead lift which has been very popular among women
from various age groups.

At BK Plastic Surgery, special needles called Endotines are used
for forehead lift via endoscope.
5 small pinpoints on each Endotine hold the skin tissue and pull up the skin
to remove firmly wrinkles.

1. Incision

Incision is normally made at 3 places behind of hairline and 
2 places in side of both ears for 1-2 cm length.
After incision, an endoscope is inserted to proceed the surgery. 

2. Separation & Fixation

1. Separate tissues from forehead and underneath temporal fascia of side hairline.
2. Resect the muscle which creates wrinkles between the eyes. 
3. Pull up the separated tissues using Endotine and firmly fix on forehead. 

forehead lift using Endotine effectively and safely improves
wrinkles on forehead and droopy eyes.
Once Endotine is placed to pull up tissues,
it adheres and dissolves within a year leaving long lasting results.

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.

[BK Plastic Surgery] Make-up Tips : How to Make Smaller Face

Make-up Tips : How to Make Smaller Face

We all wish to have our faces to appear as small like celebrities,

but in reality, not many people are able to actually undergo 

facial contouring surgery due to its cost and fear. 

So, we are going to look at some of make-up tips 

to make your face appear smaller just by make-up. :) 

Try Highlighter 

After skincare and base make-up, try highlighter.

There are various types of highlighters,

but I personally recommend liquid type highlighters. 

They are also great to mix with BB cream or foundation. 

When you apply highlighters on T-zone and U-zone areas, 

the bony prominent areas will reflect light to create 

more dimensional appearance.    

Use blusher and shadings 

Applying blusher can create instant liveliness in your face. 

However, it is very important to choose the right color for your face. 

If you have fair skin tone, you should go for pink blusher, 

and for dark skin tone, you should go for orange/peach color. 

Choose a-tone-darker color than our face for shading 

and apply along your hair line to create a natural shading. 

 Use Eyeliners 

In order to make your face appear small, 

it is better to leave less empty space in your face.  

Thus, when you apply eyeliner, you should make the line to be 

bolder and bigger to create defined eyes. 

Drawing underlines can be helpful to create more dramatic looks.  

 We have looked at some make-up tips to create smaller face just by make-up. 

Why don't you complete your make-up 

using some of the tips we have shared today ? :)

[BK Plastic Surgery] The 7 Best Foods for Flat Abs

 The 7 Best Foods for Flat Abs  

Many people perform hundreds of crunches while hoping to achieve flat abs. Crunches can definitely strengthen the abdomen muscles, but they cannot get rid layers of fatty tissue at all. 

There was once saying "You are what you eat." Choosing the right foods is very important if you are serious about achieving flat tummy. 

Yogurt

We all know that yogurt is good for us, 
but did you know it's also good for maintaining your flat abs ? 
"The probiotic bacteria in most yogurts help keep your digestive system healthy, 
which translates into a lower incidence of gas, bloating, and constipation, 
which can keep your tummy looking flat, " 
said Rania Batavneh, the nutritionist and owner of Essential Nutrition for You.

Whole Grains

Set aside the white bread and rice and swap them in 

for whole grains such as 100-percent whole wheat bread, lentils, and brown rice.

 “A recent study in the American Journal of Clinical Nutrition showed 

that a calorie-controlled diet rich in whole grains trimmed extra fat 

from the waistline of obese subjects," 

Palinski says. “This may be due to the decreased insulin response 

to whole grains versus refined carbohydrates, making it easier to mobilize fat storage."

Soy

Soy contains genistein, an isoflavine that, 
according to Jordana Brown of Oxygen Magazine, 
helps boost fat burning and reduces appetite. 

Try tofu instead of meat once a week 

and include soy milk on your whole grain cereal to up your intake.

Trans Fat-Free Food

The man made, shelf-stable product known as trans fat 

appears to encourage the accumulation of fat at the belly 

as shown in an animal study published in the journal Obesity in 2007. 

Choose snack foods that do not contain "partially hydrogenated oils" 

in the ingredient list and steer clear of fast food restaurants' fried items.

Protein

High protein diets seem to have a beneficial effect on the loss of abdominal fat.

 The journal Nutrition, Metabolism and Cardiovascular Disease published a 2009 study showing that in 215 subjects, those following a high protein diet lost more weight and abdominal fat than those following a diet with standard amounts of protein. 

Choose lean sources like skinless poultry, lean cuts of beef and egg whites 

to limit your intake of heart clogging saturated fat.

Vinegar

A Japanese study found that the substance 
that gives vinegar its sour taste and strong odor might fight fat. 
"The study found that in overweight individuals who consumed 1 or 2 tablespoons of apple cider vinegar daily for 12 weeks had significantly lower body weight, BMI, visceral (belly) fat, and waist circumference than the control group that didn't consume any vinegar," 
Palinski says. “Researchers feel this may be due to vinegar's acetic acid, 
which may switch on genes that pump out proteins that break down fat."

Fatty Fish

The omega-3 fatty acids in salmon and other fatty fish help turn on genes 

that regulate fat storage, which induces greater fat burning. 

A French study published in the International Journal of Obesity found 

that supplementation with fish oil reduces body fat mass in healthy adults.

What type of surgical method works for my eyes ?

What type of surgical method works for my eyes ?

Eyes play a critical role when the first impression is determined.
That's why a lot of people want to have big and beautiful eyes.
Especially for Asians, since they tend to have small eyes without double eyelids, many Asian people undergo double eyelid surgery.

Shapes of eyes are different from every individual that 
you must consider the overall harmony 
with the other facial features for double eyelid surgery. 
It really does require delicate and artistic skills 
in order to create beautiful eyes customized for all individuals. 

Eyelid surgery mostly indicates double eyelid surgery,
and there are two major surgical methods - incision and non-incision.
Incisional method makes incision on eyelids and remove fat, muscle, and subcutaneous tissue when non-incisional creates double eyelids by connecting skin and levator muscle using a single knot along the crease from inner to outer skin. 

Ptosis correction is for those with weakened levator muscle to fix the appearance of eyes. 
Procedures such as epicanthoplasty and lateral canthoplasty 
enhance the size and shape of eyes to create bigger and more defined eyes. 

Then which type of surgical methods is suitable for me ?
Let's find out now ! 

Thin Eyelids 

In case of thin eyelids, procedure can be performed by pinching the muscles with thread instead of making an incision on eyelid skin.
Non-incisional method is suitable for such type of eyes.

Thick Eyelids

If upper eyelids consist excess fat, thick skin, or over-developed muscle,
eyes may look puffy or swollen.
Full-incisional or partial-incisional double eyelid surgery
is suitable for patients with such condition.

Small Eyes

The vertical width of eyes can be extended by double eyelid surgery only.
However, inner corner fold removal or outer corner extension
should be performed with double eyelid surgery
to extend the horizontal width of eyes. 

Wide Distance between Eyes

Mongolian fold covering inner corner of eyes 

may cause small appearance and wide distance between eyes. 

In this case, inner corner fold removal with double eyelid surgery 

can be performed to improve the condition. 

Sleepy Eyes

Sleepy eyes are due to ptosis in most cases.
Ptosis is abnormal low-lying upper eyelid margin with eyes in primary gaze.
Normally, upper lid covers 1-2mm of the superior part of pupil.
Ptosis can be corrected by shortening levator muscle
with incision along the inner surface of eyelid or eyelid crease.

Wrinkled Lower Eyelids 

Bulging lower eyelids with fat and loose or wrinkly skin need fat repositioning surgery.
Incision is made under lower eyelid, and remaining fat is repositioned in a broader area with excess fat removal. Wrinkle removal with slight skin incision can be performed as well if there are saggy wrinkles beneath lower eyelids. 

Asymmetrical Eyes

Most people have some degree of asymmetrical eyes. 

But for severe condition, it should be corrected with double eyelid surgery. 

There are so many different eyelid surgery methods,
but it is very important to find out the best suitable method for my eyes through careful consultations with an eyelid specialist.

Must-Have Dresses For Fall

  Must-Have Dresses For Fall   

Fall is known as the best season to get married.
This means there will be tons of wedding ceremony for you to attend to.
You may think that most people would only pay attention to the bride's wedding dress,
but in reality, the dress you are wearing
can be getting more reviews than the wedding dress itself.
Let's take a look at great dresses for this Fall.  

Brown and yellow colors can blend very well with Fall season.
Yellow dress and black jacket create a perfect pair with contrast of
dark and bright colors.
If you match black heels with the look,
you may as well be picked as the next fashionista.

Off-toned blue dress with boxy trench coat may not convince you
as the best coordination, but this match gives you a feminine yet casual sense.
The trench coat is great for seasonal change as well. :) 

Many people try to avoid cream color because they believe the color may make them look either bloated or because the color often fades and becomes yellow afterwards.
However, some fabrics are easy to care in hands.
Big belts can also be matched together to create a slim waist line.

Navy is the new "black."
It is little more casual than black yet also very feminine, too.
For people who feel intimidated by wearing blacks, try navy dress.
Simple shirt-type navy dress with booties looks classic and sporty.

Lacey dress fits perfect with any occasion. 
If you add a pair of nice jewelry, your party is on. 
If you think the dress above is just too short for you, 
match with black tights and black pumps.
This will make your legs super sexy and not cheesy. 

Black and white is all time favorite for many of us.
If you are afraid of trying bright colors or bold designs,
have fun with black and whites.
Karl Lagerfeld once said that you are always safe as long as you are in black.
So, pairing a simple black dress with bold accessories can save you in big times
if you are still worrying about what to wear for your Fall events. 

How to Achieve Amazing Hips !

How to Achieve Amazing Hips !

Nowadays, skinny jeans and leggings are in every woman's closet
worn as daily outfits matched with so many different items.
Since these trendy jeans and pants happen to expose women's body lines,
women's interest has been gathered onto silhouettes.
To wear the skinny jeans in style,
one of the important aspects women must possess is a great hip line.

  

Asian women tend to have either droopy or flat hips
that many women secretly run for corrective underwear.
But there is a better way to improve such body types.
Hip augmentation procedure can create the desirable volume and shape
that you do not need the help of underwear at all !

Then How does hip augmentation proceed ?
At BK Plastic Surgery, there are two different surgical methods to create a beautiful curve
- using implants or fat grafting

1. Using Implants 

Through consultations, the insertion sites are designed 
according to patient's desire and doctor's suggestions.
Then, under local consultation with IV sedation, incisions are made in both cheeks, 
and the implants are inserted inside the hip muscles. 

After checking the symmetry of both cheeks, 
we also check if the shape of patient's hips appears as a natural shape.
The surgery takes about 1 hour to 1 hour 30 minutes,
 and you may go back to your daily activities after 2 days.

2. Autologous Fat Grafting

When autologous fat grafting is performed, 
it is effective to harvest fat from areas where fat is not easily dissolved
such as inner thighs, abdomen, and areas under the buttocks. 
Then, the harvested fat is purified via a centrifugal separator, and 
only the purified fat is grafted onto hips. 

If harvested fat is enough to perform hip augmentation,
the surgery is performed with only fat grafting.
However, most patients do not have enough fat to be harvested in first place.
Thus, when there is not enough fat to be used,
we can collaborate implant insertion as well.  

BK Plastic Surgery with many experiences on hip surgery applies
customized surgical methods
and designs considering each individual's body line.
Thus, BK hip augmentation creates satisfactory results
with naturally enhanced curves
