Why Is ‘Unnoticeable Naturalness’ Emphasized in Today’s Cosmetic Procedures?
Hello, I am a doctor who has been observing changes in the field of cosmetic medicine for the past 10 years, sharing the concerns of many. Through conversations with patients visiting my clinic over the years, I’ve noticed a common trend. While noticeable changes in specific areas were desirable in the past, nowadays, there is a clear preference for a look that seems completely untreated yet subtly more beautiful.
Many begin pondering their concerns in front of a mirror or during conversations with friends. Sagging eyelids or nasolabial folds as one ages, reduced facial elasticity after childbirth or dieting, or deepening frown lines when making certain expressions, for example. Some might ask a friend whose face looks subtly different, “What’s your secret?”, while others might closely observe the results of a treatment on the person next to them in a clinic’s waiting room. It is a time that requires a delicate approach to the subtle changes in one’s face rather than a vague desire to simply “become prettier.” These considerations are the first step toward satisfying cosmetic procedures.
However, cosmetic procedures haven’t always led to good outcomes. Many become tired of repeated procedures or are disappointed by their short duration. Some even experience emotional distress due to unexpected side effects. Particularly in the past, excessive ambition could result in an awkward appearance that made the treatment obvious, causing some to be self-conscious. During consultations, I heard statements like, “I wanted a natural lifting effect but look too unnatural, which stressed me out more,” or “I’m obviously better than before but feel like it’s not my face. I’m afraid to make expressions.”
This was a challenging task not only for patients but also for medical professionals. To accurately assess skin layers and proceed with avoiding fine blood vessels or nerves requires high concentration and precise skills. Previously, a magnifying glass called a ‘loupe’ was used to ensure a clear view during surgeries, but it had limitations for accurately identifying deep tissue layers. Moreover, there were concerns about accuracy declining as medical staff fatigue increased with prolonged surgery times, leading to unexpected variables during recovery.
In light of these issues, the field of cosmetic medicine continues to advance. Recently, the trend of handling things ‘precisely in small measures’ is emerging in the cosmetic world. Subtle adjustments in necessary areas to naturally adjust the overall impression are gaining preference over conspicuous changes. The trend aims for natural and harmonious changes.
New technologies are being introduced in some medical settings to align with these changes. Among them are 3D technology-based equipment that helps overcome the limitations of traditional magnifying glasses by allowing for three-dimensional observation. While still unfamiliar, it can be understood as a technology enabling a more precise approach by providing a three-dimensional view of the treatment area.
This method is also beneficial for medical professionals. It allows them to precisely observe minute structures, increasing the likelihood of avoiding critical areas like blood vessels and nerves during procedures. Consequently, it helps reduce unnecessary damage and enhances surgical safety. With sustained concentration and a broader field of view, more fine-tuned adjustments are possible. Patients can expect less swelling or bruising and a quicker, more comfortable return to their daily routines.
Whereas in the past, significant surgery was considered for sagging jawline or droopy eyes after dieting, now there is a strong trend towards meaningful changes through smaller, more refined approaches. One patient mentioned, “Now, I’m more curious about the precision of the procedure I’m getting than the price.” This indicates that technical skill and meticulousness have become the standards for trust.
Cosmetic procedures have transformed from simply being ways to ‘become prettier’ to processes for ‘naturally restoring one’s appearance.’ Advances in technology have made this possible, and no matter which procedure you choose, a precise approach tailored to you will be an important criterion.
What choice would you make? Rather than just basing decisions on the method or cost, we are in a time where the precision and meticulous approach tailored to you are more critical. If you desire ‘unnoticeable natural beauty,’ seek a method that combines technology and experience with care.
3D microscope equipment, which enables medical professionals to assess structures in detail three-dimensionally, is becoming a significant tool in clinical practice for precise cosmetic procedures.
