The surgery is safe, quick (the entire process only takes 30 minutes or even less), with minimal trauma during the operation. Post-operation, there is only a feeling of a sore throat similar to having a cold, without any other discomfort.

Who is suitable for "mandibular angle reshaping":

1. Prominent mandibular angles with external flipping, forming a distinct "square face" or "trapezoidal face".

2. Single or bilateral prominent mandibular angles, with asymmetry on both sides.

3. Disharmonious proportion between the upper and lower width of the face, with the distance between the two mandibular angles being close to or greater than the width between the two zygomatic prominences.

Surgical methods:

1. The surgery uses intravenous anesthesia combined with local anesthesia, ensuring a completely painless procedure.

2. The incision utilizes a combination of intraoral and extraoral incisions. Compared to a purely intraoral incision, the combined incision allows for more complete and precise osteotomy with a smoother surface. Compared to a purely external incision, the combined incision leaves smaller scars (a purely external incision requires cutting about 3 centimeters of skin, leaving noticeable postoperative scars. In contrast, the combined incision only cuts about 0.5 centimeters of skin on the outer side, hidden under the chin, making the scars almost unnoticeable after recovery).
