Experience
SINCE 2005

Over 20 years focused on head contouring —
experience makes the difference in the details.

Since opening JOGAK Plastic Surgery in 2005 and beginning our work in head contouring, we have focused on this single field and built our experience within it.

Drawing on judgment accumulated from the differing head shapes, proportions and scalp characteristics of each individual, we create the natural curve and balance that suits each head.

Research

Experience,
documented through
research.

Since beginning his work in aesthetic head contouring in 2005, Dr. Yong Tai Song has continued to study and document his surgical techniques and clinical outcomes.

Head Contouring

The head is defined by a continuous contour.

The head flows as
one continuous curve.

The shape of the head — from the forehead through the vertex to the occiput — is never defined by the height of a single area. By considering the form of each region, how they connect, and the overall proportion together, we build a natural, balanced head line.

Head contouring — forehead, vertex, occiput

Forehead

FOREHEAD
AUGMENTATION
이마성형

Refines a flat or sunken forehead so that its curve flows naturally into the rest of the face.

Vertex

VERTEX
AUGMENTATION
정수리성형

Restores height and form to a low or flat crown, connecting the line from forehead to occiput.

Occiput

OCCIPITAL
AUGMENTATION
뒤통수성형

Corrects a flat or asymmetric occiput for natural volume and a balanced back-of-head line.

Material & Approach

Shaping the form directly during surgery —
PMMA (Polymethylmethacrylate) bone-cement head contouring

At JOGAK Plastic Surgery, head contouring is performed with PMMA (Polymethylmethacrylate) bone cement. During surgery, while directly assessing the actual shape of the head and the characteristics of the scalp, PMMA cement is applied to the areas that need it and sculpted by hand into the form each patient requires.

Recovery & Aftercare

Care continues beyond surgery.

Some swelling or discomfort may occur after head contouring, but most patients are able to continue with everyday activities as they recover.

SURGERY DAY

Day of Surgery

You go home after your recovery status is checked.

DAY 2

Bandage Removal

The bandage is removed around day 2.

DAY 4

Shampooing Allowed

You may shampoo starting around day 4.

DAY 10 – 14

Staple Removal

Scalp staples are generally removed approximately 10–14 days after surgery, with healing assessed at that time.

Consultation

Your head contour is individual.
Your consultation should be, too.

Dr. Yong Tai Song personally assesses the shape of your head and the change you want, and discusses the most suitable approach.
