It's a place where talented
breast plastic surgeons all gathered at
There were many changes in breast plastic surgery at this symposium
Dite Plastic Surgery Clinic
Hello, Oz!
This is Oh’s consultation room and I'm Dr. Lee Joon-wook
Today, I will talk about what Professor Lee Guk-jong mentioned in his lecture before,
The fierce competition among plastic surgeons and
efforts to gain a competitive advantage
and their endless efforts
and this will be our topic for today
And at the 7th WSEI in Thailand
The masters of breast plastic surgery talked about
The latest updates on breast plastic surgery. And I will share that with you
Golden Hour, Lee Guk-jong
Professor Lee Guk-jong is likely to be known by not only our Oz but also most Koreans
Dr. Lee Guk-jong, a trauma surgeon who saves lives in life-or-death situations,
(*November 22, 2017, JTBC Newsroom video interview) I remember him doing an interview like this before
He said "Plastic surgeons really study and research hard,"
Upon hearing that, I realized that I had chosen a very intense major
But that intensity,
is what has elevated the status of plastic surgery in Korea today
Not only in Korea, but also around the world, Korean plastic surgery is highly recognized
I will explain in detail later
Korean Society of Plastic and Reconstructive Surgeons
Recently, the Korean Society of Plastic and Reconstructive Surgeons held an offline conference
It's been so long since the last face-to-face conference
It was a very meaningful conference
where many plastic surgeons shared the latest trends
From just reading academic papers
to able to check other specialists' thoughts
was a meaningful opportunity to ask them personally to clear my personal questions
I get busier and more tired during conference periods
I think it would be similar to most plastic surgeons
As we need to prepare lecture materials after consultation, surgery and etc
Time really flew by quickly
But there was a very interesting symposium in Thailand the week before
It was the 7th WSEI
WSEI
This symposium is sponsored by an organization
called Motiva Implants
This is an event where
most of the plastic surgeons who are knwon as experts in breast plastic surgery gather together
I attended for the second time following my attendance in 2019
It is held annually in Italy, but this time it was held in Bangkok, Thailand
Therefore, many plastic surgeons from Korea also attended
There were many changes in breast augmentation at this symposium
First, it was mentioned that they do not use large implants
They said they aim to create a natural and balanced volume
Even plastic surgeons from South America said
mentioned that big breast have lots of side effects
and has a fake look, so now the balance is considered important
Secondly, it's about hybrid breast augmentation
This is also a topic that I have mentioned many times at Oh’s consultation room
Regardless of Europe, North America, South America, or Asia,
experts and doctors from various countries,
have said that it is the most suitable method for creating a natural breast shape that fits the chest
There was also a specific lecture on the hybrid method in one of the sessions
Lastly, it is strongly recommended to use the subfascial plane
When performing surgery using natural volume and the hybrid method mentioned earlier,
many have mentioned that using the subfascial plane can result in good outcomes (*subfascial plane is a method invented in 2000 where a prosthesis is placed between the pectoral muscle and fascia.)
This was agreed upon by most doctors
In particular, Dr. Sporza has been talking about this topic for a long time, especially regarding the hybrid and subfascial plane surgical methods
Having a huge impact on breast plastic surgery in Korea
I was able to meet Dr Rankwuest in person and exchanged various opinions
Volume, submuscular plane, and hybrid methods that match the body's balance
Was also recommended
by Dr. Rankwuest about these three changes
So then I realized that there are many changes happening in breast plastic surgery
Plastic surgery, breast plastic surgery
Breast plastic surgery, which started with simply inserting implants,
is going through many changes in the direction of the surgeries
by various understanding of the characteristics and needs of the patients
And if rapid changes is not enough
To survive in the intense competitive plastic surgery industry
I will do my best to become a competent plastic surgeon in Oh’s consultation room
Have a breast-comforting day today
