Recently, I believe everyone has heard about the unfortunate experience of the “ageless male god” Jimmy Lin. As a well-known domestic performing arts star, his 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 is likely to be affected!
On the afternoon of the 28th, Taiwanese media exposed the second-stage operation. The operation went smoothly. Titanium alloy was placed in the upper part of Jimmy Lin’s arm for fixation. At present, there are facial fractures and cranial nerve damage. Given that Jimmy Lin is conscious, the recovery is relatively optimistic and there is a chance that he will recover good mobility within six months to a year. Now that the arm and shoulder fracture operations are completed, the facial and car accident injuries will be treated together.
Although plastic surgery like 3D reconstruction is 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?
Currently, there are 4 kinds of materials used in related surgeries on the market, among which titanium alloy and peek should be Jimmy Lin’s first choice for 3D reconstruction! There are two other materials, namely, soft tissue and silicone. These two materials are relatively low-end and are generally used only when considering saving the cost of surgery. Moreover, the effect after surgery is average and it is difficult to achieve long-lasting effect!
Titanium alloy and peek material
Materials like titanium alloy are widely used on the market and have accumulated a lot of experience. Basically, they can be safely retained in people’s bodies, but this material is made of metal and will affect future X-rays, nuclear resonance and other related imaging examinations!
In comparison, peek material is more stable and 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, and production 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 technology accumulation, we have 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® polymerization.
More standardized: AKSOPEEK® also has relevant medical industry testing specifications for certain specific uses, and it is expected that the master file filing work of the State Pharmacy will be completed this year.
Healthier: AKSOPEEK® all complies with ISO10993 testing standards. Among them, the detection of metal ions is carried out by plasma metal chromatograph (ICP), and its lead ion content is extremely low, less than 0.002%.
More durable: In response to the requirements on mechanical properties, high-toughness AKSOPEEK® guarantees the patient’s postoperative recovery with performance far exceeding the index.
I wonder which material Jimmy Lin will use? I hope he can have a successful operation and recover as soon as possible, and return to the audience’s eyes!
