Golden Diamant's Dr. Song Sang-hoon: Custom Lip and Mouth Area Surgery from Consultation to Operation

Hello.

I am Song Sang-hoon,

Chief Director of Golden Diamant Plastic Surgery (formerly Golden View),

specializing in lip and mouth area surgery for 20 years.

Before I knew it,

after becoming a board-certified plastic surgeon, and serving as a fellow and clinical professor,

it has been over 20 years since I started meeting patients in the field.

Time flies quickly,

and getting older

is quite disheartening for me too,

but through countless hours spent with grateful clients

who trust and seek me out,

I try to soothe that disappointment with the joy of steadily accumulating my unique know-how and surgical techniques.

So,

what exactly is lip and mouth area surgery?

While the term ‘lip and mouth area’ can often be confused with just ‘lips,’ it actually refers to the entire mid-to-lower facial region that includes the lips and forms and shapes the expression and appearance of the mouth.

In a narrow sense,

it can refer to the ‘philtrum’ and ‘lips,’

and in a broader sense,

it can include the ‘cheeks,’ ‘cheekbones,’ ‘jaw,’ and even the ‘neck.’

All of these can be included in the scope of lip and mouth area surgery.

A major reason why lip and mouth area surgery is gaining more attention these days is

because the current aesthetic trend for facial proportions is shifting towards a shorter vertical length.

An analysis of the facial features of leading Korean female celebrities today reveals that

most have vertically short faces,

and in particular, the midface occupies a smaller proportion of the overall face.

In the past, surgeries like jaw reduction and cheekbone reduction, which aimed to reduce the horizontal proportion of the face, were prevalent.

Currently, there is growing interest in nose, philtrum, and lip surgeries, which specifically affect the midface, especially its vertical proportion.

At Golden Diamant Plastic Surgery,

we always research and strive to create beautiful lip and mouth areas

with 1:1 custom-tailored designs, so that each client's mid-to-lower face can be harmoniously completed to match their individual charm and characteristics.

We aim to find the appropriate philtrum length,

corner of the mouth angle,

and lip thickness that suits each individual's facial proportions,

leading to a transformation into a more attractive and appealing face,

rather than a standardized beauty.

The characteristics of Golden Diamant Plastic Surgery's lip and mouth area surgery are as follows:

With the unique surgical know-how of a board-certified plastic surgeon who has specialized in these surgeries for over 20 years, we apply different surgical methods tailored to each individual's lip and mouth area and skin type to achieve optimal results and minimize scarring.

Through years of experience, Golden Diamant performs its unique surgeries. For lip corner lift surgery, we perform wrinkle-preventing incisions and dermal grafts to minimize perioral depressions and wrinkles. We also possess the technical skill to adjust the horizontal length of the lips by controlling the lift angle and the amount of skin excised. For philtrum reduction surgery, we use various techniques to prevent the surgical area from being pulled downwards, which can worsen scarring, and employ a multi-composite technique to prevent depression of the nasal-labial area, thereby minimizing side effects and scars.

We operate a systematic scar management program within our clinic. For basic treatment, we use the latest Fraxel laser and various types of scar-reducing medications to minimize post-surgical scars. Additionally, if further scar treatment is needed, you can utilize our advanced scar treatment program which includes over six types of lasers, more than four types of drug treatments, and stem cell therapy.

Because the lip and mouth area is located in the midface, it is highly visible and, in particular, a very mobile area,

great care must be taken to prevent scarring or the loosening of sutures after surgery.

Therefore, it can be said that for lip and mouth area surgery, more than anything,

the skill of the medical team and their accumulated know-how are crucial.

At Golden Diamant Plastic Surgery,

I, the chief director specializing in lip and mouth area surgery for 20 years,

personally handle everything from consultation to design and surgery,

providing a systematic and private system.

If you have any further questions about lip and mouth area surgery,

please do not hesitate to call Golden Diamant Plastic Surgery at any time.

We will provide kind consultation.

Thank you.
