Mandibular surgery is suitable for patients who are not beautiful, such as chin shrinkage, chin too short, chin too long, wide chin, hypertrophy, small chin, and partial deformity.

Chinese name

Mandibular surgery

adapt to

Chin down, chin down too short

Prosthetic material

Domestic silicone, joint venture silicone

Indication

Jaw too short, jaw too long

There is a beautiful plane between the tip of the nose and the jaw, that is, a straight line is drawn between the tip of the nose and the jaw. If the lips do not exceed this line, it looks beautiful, and if it exceeds, it is ugly. The jaw is composed of the connecting part of the lateral branches of the bilateral mandible, which is located below the midline of the face. The jaw-neck angle formed by the lower edge of the jaw and the upper part of the neck is the boundary between the face and the neck. The jaw, the zygomatic bones on both sides and the mandibular corners constitute the basic contours of the face, and the tissues and organs such as the nose and lips form the basic features of the face.

The shape, size and position of the jaw face

Prostheses commonly used in mandibular surgery include domestic silicone, joint venture silicone, imported silicone, Korean imported hardware and software materials, domestic prosthetics, and US prosthesis materials. Aiming at the short chin and receding, the 2mm minimally invasive vegetation approach in the mouth is used to lengthen, slightly warp, and no surgical traces. At the same time, the double chin is eliminated, the appearance is beautiful and natural, and the best three-dimensional facial feeling is presented.

1. Mandibular mandibular angle shaping

It uses a grinding head to remove the cortical bone of the mandibular angle and the outer layer of the mandible. The mandibular angle can be removed. A suitable grinding head is used to remove the excess mandibular angle, or slightly lift up. The thickness limit is at most. 5-6 mm, so the effect is not obvious.

2. Osteotomy of mandibular angle

This is to use a ball drill to punch holes or cut grooves, and then use a thin bone knife to remove the mandibular angle and the mandibular external plate, or use a compound saw to directly cut off the mandibular external plate, so that cancellous can be retained. The bone has an inner plate. This method is the same as the bone grinding method, which can save the original mandible's radian without removing the mandibular angle, but only narrows the certain width of the mandible angle, which greatly improves the face.

3. Long curve mandibular angle shaping

It uses an arc saw to make the mandibular angle into an arc-shaped line, and the osteotomy is removed to expand the incision and the distance between the mandibular trough nerves, so that the side also changes greatly. The masseter muscle loses the support of the mandibular angle. It also slowly shrinks. In order to create a more beautiful mandibular arc, we need to remove part of the bone from the outer edge of the mandible, in harmony with the curvature of the jaw.

Before the surgery, the doctor should research and examine your face as a whole to find out the crux of your beauty. The doctor will sculpt a silicone prosthesis suitable for you (if there are various types of molded prostheses, you must choose a suitable one) for sterilization and backup. After strict disinfection, local anesthesia was performed, and then an incision was made from the mouth. A cavity is formed in the jaw to accommodate the prosthesis, and the prosthesis is implanted, straightened, and the incision is sutured. A new chin is thus born. Like rhinoplasty, the operation is simple, with little bleeding, no hospitalization, and no scarring.

Mandibular angle hypertrophy is usually bilateral, and unilateral is not uncommon. How does mandibular angle hypertrophy form? This is often related to adolescents eating too much snacks, chewing gum, and may also be caused by night molars. These all make the levator muscle group (mass muscles, internal wing muscles, etc.) over-exercise, stimulate the muscle and bone development of the mandibular corner area, and the final appearance is "square face deformity". Therefore, it can be considered that there are three causes of mandibular angle hypertrophy. 1 Bone hypertrophy in the corner of the mandible 2 Excessive development of masseter muscles protruding from the cheeks on both sides. Specific to each patient, the effects caused by the two parts of the cause may be different, both bone-based or muscle-based. However, from the clinical experience, the two are often accompanied at the same time. 3 There are also some patients who are caused by heredity, and their parents or relatives often have mandibular horn hypertrophy. The mandibular angle is hypertrophic, with masseter muscle hypertrophy. Most of them are trapezoidal, and when viewed from the side, they have the contours of the mandibular angle of the male. In cosmetic and plastic surgery, they often require a thin face and perform mandibular angle plastic surgery.

When performing a face-lifting operation with a square face and a sunflower seed face, the anesthesia and care during and after the operation should be high-quality and well-trained. The operation is performed under general or local anesthesia. Many people have doubts about general anesthesia, worrying about the sequelae of the brain.

In fact, the current general anesthesia technology is quite safe, and the damage to the human body is not as great as when drinking too much alcohol. In developed countries such as the United States, most operations are performed under general anesthesia. In addition, patients do not need to worry about intraoperative discomfort, and postoperative pain can be completely avoided.

At present, the pain treatment experts in the anesthesiology department have prepared advanced "micropumps", which can administer painkillers continuously and in a small amount for 48 hours after surgery, so that the patient's recovery process is in a happy state of mind.

It can work normally after 10 days. However, the effect of the surgery only showed 80% -90% at this time. This is because, first, the swelling of the soft tissue has not completely subsided; second, the hypertrophic masseter muscle was just removed part of the "hooks" 10 days ago, and the muscle fibers were "used" The "fee-free refund" process often takes half a year.

1. Resection method: It can remove the inner plate of the hypertrophic mandible, and it can improve people who have obvious mandibular angle eversion and hypertrophy. The patient's face shape has been greatly improved from the side. It is suitable for people who require the side to see the perfect arc. Little improvement. In this method of mandibular angle plastic surgery, the patient can see the removed bone.

2. Bone grinding method: Use a bone file to remove the outer plate of the enlarged mandibular angle. How much is removed according to the doctor's experience. The positive effect of the patient's face shape after surgery can be greatly improved.

3. Resection + bone grinding method: Its method perfectly combines two commonly used methods to remove the mandible angle. On the one hand, it can remove the enlarged mandible, and at the same time, the edges and corners of the osteotomy are smoothed by the bone grinding method, so that the lines on the face are softer. Smoother. This method takes care of both the person who pursues the positive curve and the curvature of the side. This mandibular angle plastic surgery method is slightly more complicated than the first two, but the effect is also the most perfect, which is suitable for various patients who require face shape changes.

The price of the surgery is mainly due to the different materials of the prosthesis, the difference is large, the lower one is more than one thousand yuan, the highest can reach more than ten thousand yuan.

Introduction to two types of jaw surgery

1. Mandibular reduction

Generally speaking, this operation is described by cutting the mandible or removing the angle of the mandible. It is the most performed operation in facial contouring, so it can be said that the hospital that can perform this operation is also the hospital that can perform facial contouring. [-hzh-]

Orientals' facial features are laterally wide and narrow in the front and back, and the mandible extends and widens laterally during the development of the face. In the past, the focus of surgery was to eliminate the angle formed by the posterior edge of the lower jaw when viewed from the side. The possibility is very high. In fact, the key to the success of this operation is how much the lateral extension of the lower jaw can be reduced when viewed from the front.

2. Jaw augmentation

Jaw augmentation is a surgery to widen the lower jaw. It is not common in Korea if it is performed for cosmetic purposes only. This surgery is mainly used to treat facial deformation caused by congenital or accident.

1. Check for skin disease before mandibular angle surgery. Avoid incisions such as scars and nevus.

2. Maintain good mood, maintain good health, and prevent colds before mandibular angle surgery. .

3. Before performing mandibular angle surgery, do a whole body routine examination. Stop taking aspirin, vitamin E, and other blood-activating drugs and blood-activating Chinese medicine two weeks before the operation. Do not perform surgery during menstruation.

4, the day before the mandibular angle surgery should be bathed, wash the face, remove the face makeup.

5. Smoking is forbidden one week before the mandibular angle surgery, and drinking is prohibited for three days before the operation.

1. Those seeking beauty after surgery must be hospitalized for observation for 3-5 days.

2. Pressurize and bandage the head mask for 5-7 days after operation. It cannot be disassembled in the middle without special circumstances. If the bandage is removed, it should be wrapped in time. At the same time, the skin should be checked for damage and the drainage strip should be removed 48 hours after surgery. ;

3. Any type of supplements and medicines, such as ginseng, aspirin, blood circulation medicine, weight loss medicine, menstrual medicine, etc. are prohibited, because these supplements or medicines may accelerate blood circulation, reduce coagulation mechanism and affect wound healing. If necessary, consult the surgeon in advance.

4. You can only take liquid food for the first two days after surgery. Try to avoid biting harder things for a month to prevent it from affecting the healing of the surgical incision. Rinse your mouth after eating to keep your mouth clean.

5. The stitches can be removed 7 days after surgery. After the stitches are removed, you can use a soft toothbrush to gently brush your teeth. Do not use too much force.

6. Do not perform facial beauty massage or rub the surgical site within three months after the operation.

7. Do not smoke or drink within one week after the operation.

1. Avoid the pain during the process and easily remove the mandibular angle. The reason is to use plastic intravenous anesthesia to complete the plastic surgery.

2. Form a standard melon seed face with no scars after surgery, and you can't see that you did a mandibular angle operation. The reason for this is the use of precise, minimally invasive internal incisions. Bone cutting at the same time as polishing the mandible, and remove masseter muscles and cheek fat pads as needed to make the side curvature smooth under the premise of ensuring safety.

3. It is safe and fast, with little trauma and fast recovery, and avoids maladjustment after removing the mandibular angle.
