Facial Contour Revision Surgery in Korea: A Second Chance at Confidence

Hi, I’m Tami from ID Hospital.
Let’s talk about something many people quietly worry about — facial contour revision surgery.
This surgery is more than just cosmetic.
It’s a second chance — for balance, for healing, and for confidence.

Why Do Patients Seek Facial Contour Revision?

Most people come to us for three main reasons:

1.  The first surgery didn’t create the desired V-line
2. Facial asymmetry worsened over time
3. Jawline, chin, or cheekbones were over- or under-corrected

Facial contour revision surgery can correct these issues
and restore a more natural, balanced appearance.


Is Facial Contour Revision Risky?

Yes — revision surgery is more complex than the first procedure:
· Surgeons need to work on already-altered bones and tissues
· Recovery time is often longer
· There’s a higher risk of swelling, numbness, or scarring

But with the right team, risks can be reduced.
At ID Hospital, we use:
· Detailed 3D-CT scans
· Customized revision plans
· Advanced bone fixation techniques

Common Revision Cases & How We Fix Them

⭐ Case 01: Lateral Zygoma Protrusion & Nonunion

When cheekbones are cut at the wrong angle
or not fixed well, problems can include:
· Bulging near the side of the face (45° angle)
· Bones that didn’t fully heal (nonunion)

✅ We fix this using High-L osteotomy with titanium fixation,
giving stronger healing and more defined contours.

⭐ Case 02: Uneven Jawline or Step Deformity

Some patients are left with:
· Sharp angles or “steps” on the jaw
· Double angles or asymmetry

✅ We correct this using:
· Precision bone trimming
· Our MVP design (Maximum Volume Point) for a smooth jawline

What You Should Know Before Surgery

Revision surgery needs more planning than the first one.
Here’s what matters most:
· Find out what went wrong in your first surgery
· Scan your bones and nerves clearly
· Allow time for recovery — and follow aftercare well

At ID, we’ve done over 50,000 facial bone surgeries since 2004.

We even developed our own titanium fixation system, made for difficult revision cases.

Real Stories, Real Confidence

Many of our international patients had:
· Hollow cheeks from over-cutting
· Droopy jawlines
· Obvious asymmetry

But after revision, they finally felt confident again.
“Coming to Korea was the best decision I made.”
