Female Vertical Chin Lengthening by Bone Expansion – A Case Study

Background The most common dimensional deficiency of the chin is inadequate forward projection, which is often well-corrected with an implant for modest augmentation. While horizontal projection is the most frequently treated deficiency, vertical chin deficiency is often underdiagnosed or overlooked. This is largely because most standard chin implants—except for one specialized type—only address horizontal augmentation. Read More…

Case Study – Custom Implants for Facial Widening After Double Jaw Surgery

Background Double jaw surgery (DJS) is a common procedure performed to correct facial skeletal discrepancies. It is often indicated for obstructive sleep apnea or to enhance facial projection. While highly effective in these respects, DJS has one important limitation: it does not address facial width. For patients with naturally narrow faces, this can leave the Read More…

Surgical Lip Augmentation: A Case Study

Background Aesthetic lip augmentation can be achieved through a variety of methods. Injectable fillers remain the most commonly performed option; however, they are not suitable for all patients, particularly those with unfavorable natural lip anatomy or those who prefer a permanent solution. For these patients, surgical techniques provide durable results through direct lip reshaping or Read More…

Case Study: Custom Jawline Implant with Jaw Angle Muscle Augmentation

Background Jaw augmentation is a common request among men seeking a stronger, more defined jawline. While options such as injectable fillers and standard chin or jaw angle implants are available, the most effective technique is a custom jawline implant. Thanks to its continuous and individualized design, this implant provides the most noticeable distinction between the Read More…

Case Study: Pinch and Peel Lower Blepharoplasty

Background Aging of the lower eyelids is marked by redundant skin, wrinkles, and herniated fat. These changes are traditionally treated with lower blepharoplasty, a well-established surgical procedure that removes excess skin and fat to rejuvenate the eyelids. While highly effective, conventional lower blepharoplasty carries certain risks, including rounding of the lower lids and, less commonly, Read More…

Plastic Surgery Case Study: Custom Extra-Large Testicular Implants

Background Testicular implants for aesthetic enhancement are often sought due to testicular atrophy. Aging and hormone replacement therapy can lead to reduced testicular size and a looser, emptier scrotum. This relative void can be corrected with implants that are sufficiently large to offset the smaller natural testicles. Known as the implant displacement technique, this approach Read More…

Penile–Scrotal Disproportion in the Older Male: Case Study and Surgical Approac

Background In older males with erectile dysfunction, a penile prosthesis combined with testosterone replacement therapy can produce notable improvements. However, this benefit comes with a trade-off — progressive testicular atrophy. Testosterone accelerates the natural age-related reduction in testicular size, and when penile length is increased, the contrast makes the testicles appear even smaller. The result Read More…

The Anterior Sagittal Crest Reduction in Humans: Case Study

Background The sagittal crest is a raised midline ridge of bone most commonly seen in many mammals and reptiles. It serves as the attachment site for the temporal muscles—developmentally indicating strong jaw function. In general, the higher the sagittal crest, the larger and stronger the temporal jaw muscles (e.g., gorillas, certain dinosaurs). Humans typically do Read More…
