Bone Healing After Clavicle Reduction Osteotomies – Case Study

Introduction Reduction osteotomies of the clavicle for shoulder reshaping (shoulder narrowing or “desquaring”) follow the same core biological principles as fracture healing, but with nuances related to clavicular anatomy, vascularity, and rigid fixation. Healing typically progresses through four well-established phases: 1. Biological Phases of Healing Inflammatory Phase (0–7 days) Hematoma formation and initiation of inflammatory Read More…

AlloClae Fat Filler – What It Is and Wnat It Is For

AlloClae is a structural adipose filler developed by Tiger Aesthetics — a new type of cosmetic injectable.Unlike traditional fillers (e.g. hyaluronic acid) or typical fat-grafting (which requires harvesting your own fat via liposuction), AlloClae uses donor-derived adipose tissue (processed fat tissue) that’s sterilized and purified for safe injection. The processed tissue retains key structural elements Read More…

Comparing Fat Injection Graft Substitutes (Renuva vs AlloClae)

Fat grafting by injection is one of the most common aesthetic surgeries performed for a wide variety of soft tissue augmentation or contouring effects. While there are many variables involved in the success of such injection procedures the first one is adequate donor tissue. In cases of lack of donor tissue or exhausted donor sites Read More…

Custom Head Widening Implants Case Study

Introduction Custom head-widening implants are a highly specialized procedure performed by only a few surgeons worldwide. These implants are 3D-designed, medical-grade solid silicone devices placed along the sides of the skull—specifically over the temporal muscle region—to increase the absolute width of the head. Designed from a patient’s 3D CT scan, they typically provide 0.5–1.0 cm Read More…

Metopic Forehead Ridge Reduction – Case Study

Introduction A metopic skull ridge refers to a prominent midline bony elevation that runs down the center of the upper forehead. It originates from the metopic suture, which allows the infant skull to expand during early brain growth. This suture normally closes between 3 and 12 months of age. As it fuses, a temporary bony Read More…

Negative Orbital Vector & Custom Infraorbital Implants: Case Study

Introduction A negative orbital vector is a facial aesthetic descriptor referring to the relationship between the globe (eyeball) and the infraorbital rim/midface projection. A negative orbital vector occurs when the globe projects further forward than the infraorbital rim and malar (cheek) bones. In practical terms: ?? The eyes sit farther forward than the supporting bone Read More…

Thigh Implants for Congenital Asymmetry Case Study

Thigh implants are solid, medical-grade silicone implants designed to enhance the contour and muscular appearance of the thighs. They can add fullness to various quadriceps muscles including:: Rectus Femoris Vastus Lateralis Vastus Medialis Unlike fat transfer, implants create predictable and stable volume, especially for patients who are lean or who have difficulty gaining/thickening certain thigh Read More…

Testicle Implant Replacement Case Study

Introduction A silicone testicle implant is a soft, solid, medical-grade silicone prosthesis placed inside the scrotum to replace a missing testicle or to enhance testicular volume. They are commonly used for: Cosmetic testicular enlargement Post-orchiectomy replacement (cancer, torsion, trauma, undescended testicle) Gender-affirming surgery (GAS) Correction of congenital asymmetry or atrophy These implants are solid, not Read More…

Custom Testicle Implants – An Overview

What Are Custom Testicle Implants? Custom testicular implants are individually designed silicone implants created when standard, off-the-shelf testicle prostheses don’t achieve the desired shape, size, or fit. They are most commonly used for: Congenital absence of one or both testicles Testicular removal after cancer or trauma Gender-affirming surgery Revision of unsatisfactory results from standard implants Read More…

Rib Removal vs Rib Xcar for Waist Narrowing Case Study

Introduction Waistline narrowing can be accomplished by a variety of well known soft tissue procedures. Liposuction and tummy tucks (abdominoplasty) are the two main surgical procedures used with emphasis on wide fascial plication techniques to maximize the waistline narrowing effect. Rib modification, or structural waistline narrowing, is a more recent type of procedure that is Read More…
