Surgical Method

Male facial contouring surgery is not an easy procedure.
At id, where board-certified specialists with high expertise and advanced skills are present, we ensure both beauty and safety.

01

Male angle reduction surgical method

1

Only the necessary amount resected

In angle reduction, unnecessary over-resection or excessive bone cutting is avoided. Only the exact amount needed is trimmed, preserving the posterior mandibular angle naturally to complete a masculine jawline.

2

id-M osteotomy method

A male jaw surgery technique differentiated from the female V-line jaw tip.
Using the id-M osteotomy method, the jaw tip is refined without making it too pointed or short, completing a masculine and smooth jawline.

3

Cortical bone resection

Adjusting the bone thickness and jawline without unnecessary resection.
Without over-resection or bone weakening, the cortical bone is reshaped considering each individual’s proportions and harmony with facial features, reducing facial width and completing a slim, smooth jawline..

02

Male zygoma reduction surgical method

1

Minimized-damage resection

Adjusting zygoma resection volume to prevent bulging
By avoiding injury to the infraorbital nerve during resection, postoperative issues such as sensory abnormalities are prevented. The zygoma is carefully trimmed to avoid bone bulging and to prevent asymmetry.

2

Double fixation with titanium material

Ensuring stability and firmness with titanium
Instead of using wires or pins that may loosen, stable double fixation is performed with durable titanium materials.

A

Normally, in case of mini v-line surgery and cheekbone reduction surgery, it is possible to get discharged the same day according to the patient’s condition. However, it is necessary to confirm the state of the patient after waking up from anesthesia and proper disinfection of the surgical area. Admission is preferable. 2 to 3 days after surgery, it is possible to resume normal activities (please read your post-surgery manual given to you at the Hospital). Major level of swelling and bruises may last for 3 to 5 weeks, and minor swelling lasts from 3 to 6 months. It is recommended that you wash your mouth frequently with mouthwash after surgery and avoid hot or spicy foods because they may irritate the surgical site. It is also recommended that about two weeks after surgery, you start mouth exercises to widen the jaw, and help the nerves heal faster by using those exercises.

A

Generally, you can be discharged on the same day for cheekbone reduction surgery. In many cases, patients who undergoes surgery in the morning, can wake up from anesthesia and return home alone in the afternoon. However, when going home, do not bend your head or bow down when sleeping. It is good for decreasing your swelling and pain, and use of a fluffy pillow to support yourself in an upright position is advised. (please read your post-surgery manual given to you at the Hospital)

A

First of all, it is important to accurately analyze the shape of the cheekbones before surgery. It is necessary to consult with a clinician who has a lot of clinical experiences based on the results of X-ray and 3D-CT. At surgery, cheekbones are shaved based on the diagnosis. Depending on the skin elasticity of the person, an additional lifting procedure may also be recommended so the tissues are lifted together to give a lifting effect.

A

The facial bones do not grow after the growth period is over. In addition, cheekbone reduction surgery is a procedure in which the protruding cheekbone itself is moved inward and fixed to a new position, so you can rest assured that the cheekbones size will not increase again after surgery.

A

In case of cheekbone reduction surgery where your bone is completely cut, pins are needed to tightly fix the skin tissue and muscles and make them heal faster between the bones. This procedure equally happens with the other facial contouring surgeries too. Three months after the surgery, the bone is fully healed and firmly bonded as before the operation.

A

The pins are made of metals for surgery and treatment. It’s the same material used for teeth implant, causing no harm to human body so the removal is up to your personal choice. It does not matter if you go through an airport search or CT or MRI.

A

T-osteotomy is a method that is used to cut the chin bone in a T-shape, gathering the edges of resected chins pieces back together, which are secured with titanium pins. Square jaw reduction surgery can be done together which gives a natural V-shaped face.
