Who is suitable for mandibular angle reshaping?
The surgery is safe and quick (the entire process only takes 30 minutes or even less), with minimal trauma during the operation. Post-surgery, there will only be a feeling similar to a sore throat from a cold, without any other discomfort.
Who is suitable for "mandibular angle reshaping":
1. Prominently enlarged mandibular angles with outward flaring, resulting in a distinct "square face" or "trapezoidal face".
2. Unilateral or bilateral prominent mandibular angles with asymmetry on both sides.
3. Disharmonious proportions of facial width between upper and lower parts, where the distance between the two mandibular angles is close to or greater than the width between the two zygomatic prominences.
Surgical Methods:
1. The surgery uses a combination of intravenous anesthesia and local anesthesia, ensuring that the procedure is completely painless.
2. The incision employs a combined intraoral and extraoral approach. Compared to a purely intraoral incision, the combined approach allows for more complete and precise bone cutting, resulting in a smoother surface. Compared to a purely external incision, the combined approach leaves smaller scars (a purely external incision requires cutting about 3 centimeters of skin, leading to noticeable postoperative scars. In contrast, the combined approach only requires cutting approximately 0.5 centimeters of skin on the chin's sides in hidden areas, making scars almost unnoticeable after recovery).
3. The surgery is safe and quick (the entire process only takes 30 minutes or even less), with minimal trauma during the operation. Post-surgery, there will only be a feeling similar to a sore throat from a cold, without any other discomfort. It fully meets the requirements of minimally invasive surgery, with fast postoperative recovery.
Postoperative Precautions:
Elastic bandage wrapping post-surgery helps stop bleeding and reduce swelling, aiding in faster recovery. Stitches are removed one week after surgery, and soft foods should be consumed within a month. Regular outpatient follow-ups are necessary.
