3D Printing System Usage
Reconstructive Facial Contouring
Reconstructing a bone modeling of the patient facial bone
that have been overly corrected from the first surgery
to make precise bone-implant
Customized Bone Implant
Customized bone-implant that reflects the patient's
skeletal shape and curvature of the patient's facial structure
are used for better surgery results
Why is 3D Printing System Necessary?
However, the DA 3D Printing System allows accurate diagnosis
of the skeleton structure, bone size, and thickness which helps
improves the accuracy of the surgery and minimizing surgical time.

Reconstructive Facial Contouring Surgery
DA Plastic Surgery improves unnatural face lines from the overly removed facial bone
from previous surgery through a 3D printing system that reconstructs bone implants
precisely for each patient's condition.

Reconstructive Facial Contouring Key Points
- Accurately understand the
patient's current state by
taking into consideration the
patient's jawbone - Customized surgical
plans for each
patients is possible - Minimize surgical time from
creating bone implant
before the surgery
Reconstructive Facial Contouring
by 3D PRINTING SYSTEM
removed facial bone from the previous surgery?
through a 3D printing system, consultation with the specialist surgeons is proceed
while considering this information to increase the understanding of the patients
of the surgery that will be performed and to understand the patient’s desires as well.
Moreover, 3D Printing System allows the surgeon to create precise bone-implant needed
for each patient before the surgery which will improve the accuracy of the surgery
and minimize the operation time.

DR. Lee Sang Woo director of DA Plastic Surgery has established
a thesis about Reconstructive Facial Contouring in August, 2013.
The surgical method of reconstructing a patient’s facial structure
that has been overly reduced from previous surgery is mentioned in this thesis.
Furthermore, he emphasized that during revision or reconstructive facial
contouring surgeries, reconstructing the jaw-line between jaw to front chin
is more crucial than removing more bones.

DA 3D PRINTING SYSTEM
Customized Bone Implant
A surgery that does not take consideration of the patient’s
facial bone structure may bring false result but reconstructive facial contouring surgery
that uses a 3D printing system to gather accurate information about the facial structure
before the surgery to create precise bone-implant needed by the patient will only be successful.
Custom implant production through 3D printer
by reflecting the shape of the patient's skeleton.
to reflect the patient's needs, and the surgical plan that actively reflects the patient's intention
has the advantage of further enhancing the satisfaction level after surgery.

The reason why DA Facial Contouring is Special
Completion of natural and perfect face line
that is customized to individual customers'
facial structure for perfect face line
Customized diagnosis system for each patient
Established a system by considering not only facial bones but also
soft tissues such as muscles, fat, and skin elasticity that are different
for each individual through various diagnostic equipment
