Under Eye Hollowing and the “Negative Orbital Vector” Correction Case Example

One of the most common facial concerns patients notice is hollowing or a sunken appearance under the eyes. While this can happen naturally with aging, some people are born with facial bone structure differences that make the under eye area appear more recessed even at a young age. In younger patients, under eye hollowing is Read More…

Two Stage Vertical Chin Lengthening for an Extreme Augmentation Effect Case Example

Vertical chin length (the height of the lower third of the face) is usually evaluated using proportional relationships rather than just raw millimeters—but we can translate those into practical numbers. 1. Facial thirds (core framework) The face is divided into three vertical sections: Hairline ? brow Brow ? base of nose (subnasale) Subnasale ? bottom Read More…

Male Custom Forearm Implants – Anatomy and Surgical Technique

Forearm implants are a niche type of cosmetic body-contouring procedure where a solid implant (usually silicone) is placed along the forearm to increase its size, definition, or symmetry. Here’s the straightforward reality: What they’re for Enhancing muscle appearance (especially for people who feel their forearms are underdeveloped) Correcting asymmetry from injury or congenital differences Very Read More…

Male Tricep Implahts – Surgical Techniqiue and Comparison to Fat Injection Grafting

Tricep implants are a type of cosmetic surgery designed to enhance the size and definition of the triceps muscle (the back of the upper arm). They’re less common than bicep or calf implants but are used in similar situations—usually when someone wants more arm volume or definition that hasn’t responded to exercise. What they are Read More…

Transfemale Breast Augmentation Case Example

Breast augmentation in transfeminine (transfemales / trans women) patients is a well-established procedure, but it has some important differences from augmentation in cisgender women due to anatomical and hormonal factors. 1. Background: Hormone Therapy First Most transfeminine patients undergo estrogen-based hormone therapy before considering surgery. This: Promotes natural breast development (often A–small B cup) Helps Read More…

Dermal-Fat Graft for Steroid Induced Glabellar Soft Tissue Defect Case Example

Soft tissue atrophy is a known complication of corticosteroid (steroid) injections, especially when they’re placed superficially or repeatedly in the same area. What it is: It’s a localized loss or thinning of subcutaneous fat and sometimes skin, leading to a visible depression or “dent” at the injection site. Why it happens: Corticosteroids can: Inhibit fibroblast Read More…

Female Forehead Augmentation – Extended Implant Design in the Backward Sloped Forehead

Female forehead augmentation is a cosmetic procedure designed to add volume and create a smoother, more rounded, feminine forehead shape—as opposed to reducing bone (which is done in forehead feminization surgery). What it is A procedure to enhance a flat, concave, or under-projected forehead Aims for a gentle convex contour with a more vertical slope, Read More…

Secondary Dorsal Implant After Inadequate Rib Graft Augmentation Rhinoplasty

Nasal dorsal augmentation involves increasing the height and/or improving the contour of the nasal bridge (dorsum). It is a common component of rhinoplasty, particularly in patients with a low or flat nasal bridge or an irregular dorsal contour. Common Indications Low nasal bridge (common in many Asian, African, or revision rhinoplasty patients) Saddle nose deformity Read More…

Silicone Testicle Implant Replacements for Saline- Filled Implants – Determining Replacement Size

If you already have saline testicular implants and want to increase their size, that’s something that requires a revision surgery—it’s not something that can be adjusted or “filled up” after placement like some other implants. Here’s the reality of how it works: 1. Implants aren’t expandable once placed Testicular implants (saline or silicone) come in Read More…

Combined Solid and Wrap Around Implants for Testicular Enhancement Case Example

Testicle implants have traditionally been used to replace a missing testicle. To achieve this goal, a range of standard implant sizes is available in both saline-filled and solid silicone forms. However, when a natural testicle exceeds standard implant sizes, a custom implant design is required. This approach allows for precise control of size and shape, Read More…
