Autologous Bone Graft Nobility Surgery Possible Simultaneously with Facial Contouring Surgery

Autologous bone graft nobility surgery! This procedure is only possible thanks to Dr. Park Jong-rim, who has specialized in bone surgery for 20 years, performing facial contouring reconstruction, functional contouring treatments, and aesthetic cosmetic contouring.

Hello?

This is 345 Plastic Surgery.

I have previously mentioned that after facial contouring surgery, the volume points of the face shift, transforming it into a more three-dimensional appearance.

For example, when looking at a side profile,

if the chin protrudes slightly or the mouth is somewhat prominent, the mid-face can appear sunken.

This crescent-moon-like side profile can make one look older and the face appear longer.

Facial contouring surgery can improve these areas.

By repositioning the jaw, a concave side profile can be made convex, and

if more volume is needed, fat grafting can be used to add volume to the forehead or nasolabial folds.

And another method:

If you are concerned about the area next to your nostrils appearing particularly sunken, making you look older?

There is a way to address this simultaneously with facial contouring surgery.

This involves grafting bone into the area referred to as the ‘nobility’ region.

Nobility bone graft, which bone is used?

When undergoing square jaw surgery,

at 345 Plastic Surgery, we perform a long-curve square jaw reduction, where the square jaw is resected all the way to the chin without a secondary angle.

Quite a significant amount of bone is resected,

and this bone is carefully shaped to fit the nobility area and then fixed.

You can consider the method and principle to be similar to silicone implants,

but the material used is your own bone.

What are the advantages of bone graft nobility surgery?

The biggest advantage is using your own bone rather than a foreign substance, and over time, the bone naturally fuses together.

If you are concerned about bone erosion, foreign body reactions, or deformation caused by silicone implants, bone grafting can be an alternative. If you are concerned about both a square jaw and a sunken nobility area, this can be an excellent way to address both simultaneously.

Of course, there are limitations.

For those concerned about nasolabial folds, volume is needed not only in the nobility area but also around the mouth, so nobility surgery alone may feel insufficient.

Additionally, with bone grafting, some absorption may occur as the bones fuse, potentially reducing the initial volume, but a certain amount of volume will remain permanently.

Therefore,

it is important to maximize the advantages of bone graft nobility surgery.

Dr. Park Jong-rim of 345 Plastic Surgery has specialized in bone surgery for 20 years and has performed facial contouring reconstruction as the first head of plastic surgery at the National Cancer Center.

Having accumulated diverse research and clinical experience in bone reconstruction for lost or damaged bones, he can perform stable bone grafts with extensive experience.

Frequently Asked Questions

What kind of bone is used for autologous bone graft nasolabial fold augmentation?

We use the patient's own bone, specifically the long resected bone from the mandibular angle to the chin during a square jaw surgery. This long curved resected bone is meticulously shaped to fit the patient's facial structure and then fixed in the sunken area next to the nostrils to add volume.

What are the advantages of using autologous bone compared to artificial implants?

The biggest advantage is that there is almost no foreign body reaction or rejection since the patient's own tissue is used. There is less concern about bone erosion due to the weight of the implant or displacement, and it integrates naturally with the existing bone, resulting in less foreign body sensation.

Will the grafted bone be absorbed and disappear over time?

During the engraftment process, some of it may be absorbed by the body, so there is a possibility that the volume may be slightly reduced compared to the initial design. However, the remaining bone after complete engraftment maintains its effect semi-permanently, so it does not completely disappear.

Can nasolabial fold augmentation alone eliminate deep nasolabial folds?

No, nasolabial fold augmentation primarily aims to fill the sunken area next to the nostrils, so it is difficult to completely eliminate deep nasolabial folds. Additional treatments such as fat grafting or fillers may be necessary to improve deep wrinkles around the mouth.
