[Dr. Taesung Lee’s 7th secret for facial contour surgery] After plastic surgery for square mandibular angles, both the front view and the side view of pictures should be improved


These days, there are many before and after photos on the Internet after plastic surgeries. Among them, photos for facial bone plastic surgeries, such as facial contouring surgery or orthognathic surgery (double- or two-jaw surgery), show huge differences. It should be noted that, however, there are some after-photos that show great changes from the side, but not from the front.

A cosmetic surgery for mandibular angles is easily thought to cut off prominent angles only. In order to have a slim jaw line from any angle, ‘sebum osteotomy (resecting bone),’ to reduce the thickness of the sides of mandibles and ‘T-osteotomy’ to improve frontal view of V-line should be done together.

In addition to the procedures aforementioned, even sharper V-line can be achieved by suctioning fat in the cheeks and downsizing jaw muscles (masticatory muscle or masseter muscle) with botox or other medical substances.

A patient should make a careful decision after having a consultation with specialists about what type of facial contour the patient prefers, because the result of facial plastic surgery varies, depending on how much experience an operating surgeon (plastic surgery specialist) has. Also, how thoroughly anesthetic system and after-surgery care are established seriously need to be considered because patients will undergo general anesthesia and during high-level surgeries that resect bone.
