The following article is an analysis of body parts of popular stars, made by President Shin Ye-sik and Moon Hyeong-jin of Navi Plastic Surgery Clinic (Open the link).
▲ Han Ga-in's nose? Why is it so special?
Ever since her debut, Han Ga-in was known for her 'perfect nose'. First of all, her nose is straight and stands upright. In addition, her nose is shaped in such way that it is elevated as it goes down from her brows to the end of her nose, which enhances its beauty. The width of her nose is about 1/5 of the width of her face; and from below, her nostrils are the shape of oval toward end of her nose. President Moon Hyeong-jin advised, "The plastic surgery on nose is not just heightening the nose bridge but considering overall aspects of a whole face in order to make a perfect nose like Han Ga-in's".
▲ Kim Tae-hee's eyes? The golden ratio of 1:1:1 of beauty fat
Even though Kim Tae-hee missed out to be ranked 1st by very small difference, she is the leader of setting trends in the aesthetic plastic surgery department. Unlike many other female stars, literally every parts of Kim Tae-hee's face is envied by females, from her eyes, face shape, nose bridge to her graceful forehead lines. In particular, her eyes are relatively large compare to the size of her face, which is enhanced by the beauty fat underneath it. She has a perfect golden ratio of 1:1:1 between her eyes and brows. The professionals said, "The patients who undergo surgery to shape double eyelids, especially those who want to have eyes like Kim Tae-hee's specifically inquire about secondary surgery on opening frontal side of their eyes and inserting beauty fat underneath their eyes".
▲ Kim Hye-soo's breasts? The symbol of Korean glamour
In actual fact, the size of breasts undergoing a plastic surgery has increased gradually. For example, 10 years ago, the size of breast shaper was an average 150cc, which is now increased up to 250cc, showing the trend of increase in the breast enlargement. In a situation like this, the fact that Kim Hye-soo was chosen for her breasts shows her symbolic value as a glamorous star. Recently, the new technology of breast enlargement called "fascia breast enlargement" was introduced, which reduced the pain and recovery period by removing the membrane around the breasts. This is becoming increasingly popular with those patients who previously felt uneasy about undergoing a surgery. The big advantage of the new technology is that the breasts look natural like Kim Hye-soo's and the smoothness of cohesive gel enhance this natural look.
▲ Han Ye-seul's face shape? The clue for V-line face is sharp 'front jaw line' Han Ye-seul's V-line face is a mix of narrow egg-face-shape and a sharp jaw line, which give sexiness in her face. President Shin Ye-sik said "The trend of V-line plastic surgery initiated from last year. The technology includes reducing the width of jaw lines as well as sharpens the front and side jaw lines". In addition, it is much safer now because the previous method of general anaesthesia was replaced by sleeping anaesthesia to induce the patient to be in a state of sleeping throughout the operation.
Beside above, other popular trends in aesthetic plastic surgery include Chae Jeong-an's eyes, Yoon Eun-hye's nose, Han Ji-min's forehead, which corresponds to the popularity rises and fall in the showbiz.
