Secondary Genioplasty Case Study

Introduction Sliding (bony) genioplasty is a well-established technique for chin augmentation. Its main advantage is that it uses the patient’s own bone, avoiding the need for an implant. However, it has drawbacks: the bone cut can be angled in multiple ways, the resulting chin may take on an unnatural bony shape, and revisions are more Read More…

Clavicle Lengthening for Male Shoulder Enhancement

Introduction Shoulder widening, or augmentative shoulder reshaping, can be achieved through two main approaches. The external or direct approach involves augmenting the shoulder’s soft tissues (deltoid muscles) with either implants or fat injections. The internal or indirect approach increases clavicle bone length, thereby broadening the shoulders. Each method has distinct advantages, and in select cases, Read More…

Testicle Implant Innovations For A Softer Feel

Testicular implants are available in both fluid-filled and solid designs. Among these, solid implants offer several distinct advantages. Unlike saline-filled implants, solid silicone implants are permanent and do not risk failure or require replacement. They also provide a softer, more natural feel—an important feature given the thin soft tissue covering and the implant’s suspension between Read More…

Custom Skull Dent Implant Case Study

Background Congenital skull indentations are distinct depressions in the skull present at birth. They are most commonly partial-thickness defects rather than full-thickness bone deformities. The most likely cause is prolonged intrauterine pressure from structures such as the maternal sacral promontory, rib cage, or even the fetus’s own foot or hand. Although birth trauma (e.g., forceps Read More…

Long Term Otoplasty Reversal Graft Removal

To restore helical rim visibility in the mid-ear, a release must be performed in this region. If done very soon after surgery—when the cartilage still retains its original memory—the ear may spring back close to its preoperative shape. However, after 4–6 weeks, that cartilage memory is lost, and a release alone is insufficient. In such Read More…

Facial Artery Aneurysm Surgery Results: A Case Report

Introduction Injectable fillers are widely used for facial rejuvenation and contouring, with hundreds of millions of procedures performed worldwide. Complications are uncommon but can be significant. The most serious is intravascular injection causing embolization and tissue necrosis, particularly in the central face where the facial artery is at risk. Less frequently reported is direct arterial Read More…

Congenitally Long Earlobe Shortening with Facelift Case Study

Background A vertically long or enlarged ear (macrotia) can result from several causes. Different regions of the ear may contribute to the enlargement—ranging from the middle concha and superior third crus cartilages to the lower third earlobe. To achieve an effective ear reduction, it is essential to identify the exact source of the enlargement so Read More…

The I Pattern Direct Necklift Excision for Large Neck Wattles Case Study

Background Neck sagging is an inevitable result of aging. The extent varies among individuals and is influenced by factors such as youthful neck shape and body weight. Strong jawlines with thinner tissues and healthy body weight tend to age with less noticeable neck changes, whereas those with less defined jawlines, thicker tissues, and higher body Read More…

Standard vs Custom Facial Masculinization Implants Case Study

Background Facial masculinization surgery is most commonly performed at three skeletal levels: Lower jawline Midface (cheeks) Upper brow bones While other areas may be addressed, these regions are the most frequently augmented for masculinizing effects. Each shares a natural convexity, and surgery aims to enhance this by adding projection to otherwise flat or underdeveloped contours. Read More…

Custom Vertical Orbital Dystopia Implant

Eye asymmetry can result from differences in the shape of the bony socket in which the eyeball resides. The eye sits within a cone-shaped cylinder of bone that is widest in the front—where the cornea, iris, and sclera are visible—and narrows at the back to a small opening for the optic nerve to pass into Read More…
