Jimmy Lin se someterá a una reconstrucción facial en 3D. ¿Se utilizará aleación de titanio o material de peek para la cirugía?
Recently, I believe everyone has heard about the unfortunate experience of the «ageless male god» Jimmy Lin. As a well-known domestic performing star, appearance has been his main feature since his debut. He has been popular in the entertainment industry for decades because of his appearance. However, this time, the car accident caused the most serious damage to his face, which means that his appearance will most likely be affected!
On the afternoon of the 28th, Taiwanese media revealed the second-stage surgery. The surgery went smoothly, and titanium alloy was placed in the upper part of Jimmy Lin’s arm for fixation. Currently, there are facial fractures and brain nerve damage. Given that Jimmy Lin is conscious, the recovery is relatively optimistic, and there is a chance that he will be able to recover good mobility within six months to a year.
Now that the surgery for the broken arm and shoulder has been completed, we will have to consult and deal with the facial injuries and injuries caused by the car accident.
Although plastic surgeries like 3D reconstruction are already very common in the plastic surgery industry, we may have a question: as a big star, Jimmy Lin’s appearance is so important to him, what kind of materials will he use for 3D reconstruction
There are currently 4 types of materials used in related surgeries on the market, among which titanium alloy and peek should be the first choice for Jimmy Lin’s 3D reconstruction surgery! The other two are his own soft tissue and silicone. These two materials are relatively low-end and are generally used when considering saving surgical costs. Moreover, the effect after surgery is average and it is difficult to achieve long-lasting results!
Titanium alloy and peek material
Materials like titanium alloy are widely used in the market and have accumulated a lot of experience. Basically, they can remain safely in people’s bodies. However, this material is made of metal and will affect future X-rays, nuclear resonance imaging and other related imaging examinations!
In comparison, the peek material is more stable, can match the facial bones more accurately, and will not affect subsequent related examinations! However, this material also has disadvantages. It is not suitable for areas with rich facial expressions. In addition, it cannot be implanted alone in many positions, and there is even a risk of displacement. It needs to be fixed by titanium!
Junhua AKSOPEEK
As one of the earliest domestic companies engaged in the research, development, production and manufacturing of PEEK materials, Jiangsu Junhua pays great attention to the application of PEEK in the medical industry and has been committed to the research, development and production of medical implant-grade PEEK materials.
After 16 years of production and technological accumulation, we established a GMP refining production workshop in accordance with the production standards of medical implant materials and developed professional refining and purification equipment for implant-grade AKSOPEEK polymers.
More standardized : AKSOPEEK There are also relevant medical industry testing specifications for certain specific uses, and it is expected that the master file filing work with the State Drug Administration will be completed this year.
Healthier : AKSOPEEK® all complies with ISO10993 testing standards. The metal ion detection by plasma metal chromatograph (ICP) shows that the lead ion content is extremely low, less than 0.002%.
More durable : In response to the requirements of mechanical properties, high-toughness AKSOPEEK ensures the patient’s postoperative recovery with performance far exceeding the standards.
I wonder what kind of material Jimmy Lin will use I hope he can have a successful surgery and recover as soon as possible, and return to the audience’s eyes!
