This year's Chuseok looks generous, with the weekend and a substitute holiday applied as well. More people are therefore planning to travel during the Chuseok holidays or to use the time for rest and self-care. With effective scheduling, the remaining days off can still be used even after going back to one's hometown to see relatives.<?xml:namespace prefix = "o" />
Women in particular sometimes use the remaining holidays for outward self-care such as dieting and skin care. Some also seek cosmetic surgery to resolve a complex during the generous holiday period. Among the procedures that let one quietly become prettier over the Chuseok period, rhinoplasty is known to rank high in preference along with eye surgery.
Rhinoplasty, chosen by many women during the holidays because the surgical method is relatively simple and recovery is quick, should be decided on carefully with overall harmony in mind. Since the nose sits at the center of the face, rather than unconditionally pursuing a high nose bridge or a particular celebrity's nose shape, it is better to decide the shape and surgical method through an accurate, tailored consultation with specialist medical staff.
According to Dr. Jeonghwan Jeon of TheLINE Plastic Surgery, the trend in recent nose surgery is to bring out a natural look with overall facial harmony in mind. Such rhinoplasty is performed as tailored nose surgery that takes each patient's individual characteristics into account.
Barbie rhinoplasty, which looks doll-like and natural from any angle, is cited as a representative tailored nose surgery. It brings out the line running from the forehead to the nose bridge and chin three-dimensionally, so the effect of improving a protruding mouth and even a face-slimming effect can be enjoyed.
3D-CT imaging, which is also used in Barbie rhinoplasty, helps identify the features of each individual facial structure and bring out each patient's own character. Through this, rhinoplasty that brings out one's own beauty becomes possible, rather than a nose that looks stamped out from the same mold.
It can precisely analyze the height of the nose bridge and nasal tip and even the angle of the tip, which helps create a delicate design in which the line connects naturally, as in the Barbie nose, while the angle remains defined. It can also identify the bone structure, cartilage structure and skin layers, down to the otolaryngological aspects, so safety can be improved as well.
Dr. Soyoung Lee of TheLINE Plastic Surgery said, "Performing tailored surgery with thorough analysis and assessment such as 3D-CT imaging is the way to raise surgical satisfaction," adding, "A consultation with specialist medical staff with abundant procedural experience should come first."
