Day Two of Live Surgery with a Skilled Female Plastic Surgeon!
Day two of the IFAAS Breast Mini-Fellowship live surgery at Atelier Plastic Surgery, featuring Dr. Ko Ju-young, nine foreign surgeons, and a breast augmentation case.
Hello!
Atelier Plastic Surgery, where you become a work of art
This is HAPPY Ruru ^^
Today, following yesterday, I'm bringing you more news from Atelier!!
Following August 26, on August 27 as well, at Atelier Plastic Surgery,
we held the Breast Mini-Fellowship Program of IFAAS (International Fellowship in Advanced Aesthetic Medicine)!
Pre-op consultation: a doctor talks with a patient in front of a mirror as visiting doctors observe.
Today, too, we were joined by the skilled Dr. Ko Ju-young
along with nine enthusiastic foreign plastic surgeons,
who all came to join us~
The patient who agreed to undergo surgery this time
had undergone a left total mastectomy due to past medical history~
A total mastectomy refers to surgery performed for breast cancer that removes the nipple, areola, and skin,
along with the entire breast~
A surgeon in an IFAAS cap performs the live surgery while other doctors watch closely.
The breasts play a significant role in a woman's physical appearance!
After undergoing a total mastectomy for unavoidable reasons,
patients are often left heartbroken,
both emotionally and in terms of appearance~
Doctors and staff gather around the operating table; a monitor shows photos of the patient's body.
Breast augmentation with implants is sometimes done for the sake of external beauty and size,
but true plastic surgery is also about resolving emotional concerns like these,
don't you think?
Our patient who underwent surgery this time also had many emotional and physical concerns after the total mastectomy,
but trusted our skilled Dr. Ko Ju-young
and joined this live surgery!
(To our patient: thank you from the bottom of our hearts!)
After the surgery, the visiting foreign doctors
held a Q&A session with Dr. Ko Ju-young,
sharing a wide range of surgical experiences,
making it a truly meaningful time^^
