Can a Total Jaw Augmentation and Facelift Be Combined?

In older men with significant neck sagging and a weak jawline, an important question arises: should a custom jawline implant be combined with a full lower facelift for the best aesthetic result? This presents a unique challenge, as jaw augmentation and neck lifting are closely connected—both anatomically and aesthetically. Understanding the Relationship Between Jaw Augmentation Read More…

Technical Strategies – Custom Forehead Implant Placement Guides

Introduction Custom forehead implants are designed to enhance or reshape the forehead and brow region—often to achieve aesthetic balance or for gender-affirming purposes. These implants are individually fabricated from silicone or PEEK (polyether ether ketone) using a 3D CT scan of the patient’s skull, ensuring a precise fit that follows the natural contours of the Read More…

Natural Custom Jawline Implant Case Study

Background When patients refer to “natural jaw augmentation,” they usually mean enhancing the jaw’s shape and definition in a way that looks balanced and refined—without appearing obviously “done.” The goal is to strengthen or emphasize the existing jawline while maintaining harmony with other facial features such as the chin, cheeks, and neck. A natural-looking result Read More…

Testicular Implant Replacement: Case Study

Introduction Two main types of testicular implants are currently available for replacing lost or removed testicles: Saline-filled implants — silicone-shell devices filled with sterile salt water. Solid silicone implants — also known as “ultrasoft” or “gummy bear–type” implants, made entirely of solid silicone and not fluid-filled. The term silicone in this context refers to the Read More…

Indications for Custom Paranasal Implants Case Study

Introduction Paranasal implants are a well-established method of facial enhancement designed to augment the midface region—specifically the area around the sides of the nose (the paranasal or pyriform aperture region). This portion of the midface may appear flat or deficient due to individual skeletal development, aging, or an aesthetic desire for greater central midface projection. Read More…

Facial Artery Resection for Chronic Pain: Case Study

Introduction The facial artery, a branch of the external carotid artery, supplies blood to the lower face, lips, cheeks, and nose. Its key branches include the labial arteries (to the upper and lower lips) and the angular artery (to the side of the nose and the periorbital region). Anatomically, the artery runs deep to the Read More…

Uncommon Testicular Enhancement Case Study

Introduction Testicular enhancement surgery aims to increase the visible size of the testicles within the scrotum using implants. The goal is to create the appearance of a single pair of enlarged testicles—those being the implants themselves. This is best achieved using a displacement technique, in which the implants are large enough to camouflage or displace Read More…

Testicular Enhancement by Hollow Chamber Custom Testicle Implants Case Study

Introduction Testicular enhancement aims to increase the visible size of the testicles within the scrotum. This is most effectively achieved using an implant shaped like a natural testicle. Such implants can be used in two main ways: Wrap-around augmentation, in which the implant envelops the natural testicle to enlarge its apparent size. Side-by-side (displacement) placement, Read More…

Transcutaneous Approach to Jaw Angle Implant Asymmetry Correction Case Study

Introduction Jaw angle implant asymmetry, whether resulting from standard implants or a custom jawline implant, is not uncommon. Several factors contribute to this, including limited visibility through the intraoral incision used for placement, incomplete elevation of the masseteric muscle, or unrecognized differences in bony jaw angle morphology. Once full healing has occurred (typically three months Read More…

Female Frontal-Temporal Bossing Reduction – Case Study

Introduction Frontal bossing refers to a forehead shape in which the upper forehead protrudes farther forward than the lower brow area. This should be distinguished from the opposite condition, where the brow bones project more prominently than the upper forehead. Although both forms of forehead protrusion can occur in either gender, frontal bossing is more Read More…
