The vermillion border, also known as the vermillion line, is the distinct demarcation between the red-colored portion of the lips (the vermillion or vermilion) & the adjacent regular facial skin. This border is more prominent in some individuals & may appear as a fine line or a slightly raised edge between the lips & the surrounding skin.
When a laceration occurs on the lip & extends between the facial skin & the lip's skin, it can present specific challenges that may necessitate the involvement of a plastic surgeon. Here are some reasons why one would choose Dr. Leo Otake as he is not only a cosmetic, plastic surgeon and a reconstructive microsurgeon in which a plastic surgeon is often required in such cases as follows:
Aesthetic concerns: The lips are a central feature of the face & play a crucial role in facial aesthetics. A laceration that involves the vermillion border can disrupt the natural contour & symmetry of the lips. Plastic surgeons are specialized in restoring aesthetics & this is why you would want none other than Dr. Leo Otake using his precise techniques to ensure that the lip heals with minimal scarring & retains its natural appearance.
Complex anatomy: The lips have a complex anatomical structure, with multiple layers of tissues, blood vessels, nerves, & muscles. When a laceration extends through these layers, it requires careful evaluation & repair to avoid functional issues like difficulty with speech, eating, or facial expressions. Dr. Otake is experienced in handling complex facial anatomy & performs meticulous repairs to optimize functional outcomes.
Scar management: The vermillion border is a unique area with distinctive properties, & healing in this region may differ from regular facial skin. Scarring in this region can be more noticeable & challenging to manage. Dr. Leo Otake has exceptional expertise in scar management techniques, which may include meticulous suturing, using specialized sutures, & employing other measures to minimize scarring & promote better healing.
Lip function & sensation: The lips are essential for speech, expression, & oral functions like eating & drinking. If the laceration affects the nerves or muscles responsible for lip movement or sensation, a plastic surgeon's skills are crucial in restoring optimal function & minimizing potential complications.
Experience in cosmetic outcomes: In some cases, a laceration repair may require a combination of functional & cosmetic considerations. Dr. Leo Otake has extensive experience (over 22 years in balancing both aspects to achieve the best possible cosmetic outcome while ensuring that lip function is preserved.

The advent and proliferation of commercially available biologic mesh material has expanded the repertoire of hernia repair materials available to the surgeon. Given the higher initial cost of these mesh materials relative to synthetic materials such as polypropylene, there has been debate regarding the purported benefit of the use of biologic mesh. This study is a single-institution review of complex hernia repairs using both biologic and synthetic mesh materials. The patients included in the analyses were admitted to the institution at least twice for management of hernia; this permitted specific evaluation of a given diagnosis, hernia, in the same patient, but at different points in time. In a subset of patients, hernia repair was performed upon the second admission with conversion from biologic or synthetic mesh, which had been placed at the initial repair. The objective of this study was to evaluate the financial implications of mesh choice. Specific parameters reviewed included type of mesh used, total costs of hospitalization, direct cost associated with the hernia repair, total collections, and percentage of collections relative to total charges. Through such analysis, our aim was to determine whether there were any variances in revenue and costs associated with the application of either mesh material or the associated clinical scenarios.

FACES BY DR. Leo Otake
LIPS | EYES | NOSES | CHINS | CHEEKS | JAWLINES
Facts about our Jawlines:
1. Our jawline changes shape as we age due to loss of bone density & muscle mass.
2. Women tend to lose definition in their jawline earlier than men due to hormonal changes.
3. Gravity plays a significant role in the sagging of the jawline, pulling it downward.
4. The skin around the jawline becomes thinner & less elastic over time, making it easier for wrinkles & sagging to occur.
5. Chewing gum or clenching our teeth can cause the muscles around the jawline to become more prominent, leading to a stronger jawline appearance.
6. Sleeping on our side or stomach can worsen the appearance of a sagging jawline over time.
7. Regular exercise, especially activities that involve the jaw muscles, can help maintain a defined jawline.
8. Certain medical conditions, such as bruxism (teeth grinding) or temporomandibular joint (TMJ) disorder, can contribute to changes in the jawline.
9. Non-surgical treatments, such as facial exercises or injectable fillers, can help improve the appearance of a weakened jawline.
10. Genetics play a significant role in the shape & structure of our jawline, so some people may naturally age with a more defined or sagging jawline.
