Is there key point ‘ABC’ to avoid revision surgery after first plastic surgery?


It’s time for prospective university students to look after their appearance after finishing their long period of exams. Freshmen’s plastic surgery has super ordinary consideration as it’s the first plastic surgery ever in their life. These are the key tip ‘ABC’ that has to be known to avoid revision surgery, which supported by Dr. Sang Hoon Park, plastic surgery specialist at ID Hospital.


The very first consideration to be made before planning plastic surgery is ‘Age’. The suitable age for plastic surgery for body parts including eyes, nose and chin are varied as each of them has different time for their growth conclusion. The earliest one is eye. Eyes mostly finishes development at around 16, thus double eye-lid surgery is possible afterwards.




It’s ideal to get surgeries including orthognathic, facial contouring and nose surgeries after face is fully grown and stopped development as these surgeries deal with facial bone. Facial bone is the last part to finish development. There is chance of continuous development if the patient is 19~20 years old who just finished Korean SAT as the growth of facial bone may continue after 20 depending on individuals. Thus growth conclusion should be checked up in prior to make decision.


Dr. Park said “It’s suitable to get surgery after all growth has concluded as it’s hard to predict surgery result during growth period” and “However, keep in mind that parents’ agreement is required if the patient is under 19.”


Plastic surgery specialists emphasize facial ‘Balance’ as another important point for plastic surgery. Especially, the balance between forehead and nose should be considered. The patient should be aware that excessive plastic surgery breaks facial balance and may cause resistance. Recently preferred method is to use customize implants according to the patient’s nose shape during surgery. It looks natural while correcting shape as the patient wanted; also it’s safe without concerning that the implant might come out, as the implant is fixed while it fitted perfectly.



Plastic surgery is a surgery, too. There is no need to be afraid, but before and after care is important as it’s a surgery. Especially, it needs precise care as the result may change according to; treatment history, type of medicine taken, and the cloths on the surgery day. It’s a good way to improve on safety by having a comprehensive medical testing for plastic surgery.



Above all, sufficient consultation with medical team about the patient’s health is essential. Consult medical team beforehand for safe anesthesia, about specific medicine that the patient is allergic to if the patient is medicated or treated for an internal disease, thus the medical team can avoid the use of relevant medicine. Also additional check-up may be required if the patient had treated for heart, lung, brain diseases or cancer treatment.

Orthognathic surgery FAQ

ID’s orthognathic surgery FAQ


Q. Does ID Hospital perform preoperative medical checkup as compulsory before orthognathic surgery?

I think I will need Two jaw surgery because I have severely protruded jaw and I’m really scared as it is an orthognathic surgery.
I heard that ID operates preoperative checkup that has 50 items, do I deserve that as well or do I deserve that as partial?
As I’m worried before surgery… please tell me about the preoperative medical checkup in detail~

A. Yes! All patients go through preoperative medical checkup according to their anesthesia requirement, and for orthognathic patients who undergo general anesthesia conducts full preoperative medical checkup which consists of about 50 items performed by professional examination team led by internists.

Preoperative medical checkup is a compulsory at ID as the checkup considers patient’s availability for surgery before surgery, possible risk factors during surgery and fast recovery after surgery.

For patients who are concerned about protruded jaw, 3D-CT and V-CEPH examination have to be performed to determine if the patients are Two jaw surgery candidates or not, but we will assume that the questioner is Two jaw surgery candidates and continue on the answer.

Bone’s aging is progressed according to the stage of lifecycle, and the aging status, bone density, and the thickness and length of bone are identified to be used to plan surgery.
Also for students who are still in their growth period must undergo growth plate examination, and the surgery can be performed after the growth has stopped.
Usually the growth stop at about 18~20 years, but it’s safe to get preoperative medical checkup prior to surgery as males can grow up 25 years and females can grow up 23 according to individual’s characteristics.

ID’s patient can receive professional and systematic medical checkup without any discomfort of visiting multiple hospital as the medical checkup is operated in ID Hospital by ID Hospital.
There’s no additional fee required for the medical checkup if the patients get surgery at our hospital and it takes about a week to get the result.
Patients can be relaxed as consultation with specialized doctors about undergoing surgery or not if there is anything wrong with the patients’ result.

We would also inform about few simplified caution before preoperative medical checkup.
The patients must avoid alcohol a day before checkup and have to be careful on overwork or overeating as this can affect on the checkup result.
The patients have to stop taking medicine about 2~3 days before medical checkup if they were taking medicine and the patients with high blood pressure or diabetes will discuss this with their doctors.






Q. Is it possible to get No-Tie Two jaw surgery with undetectable pin?

I have asymmetric face and malocclusion.
I want to get undetectable Two jaw surgery, but is it possible to do this as No-tie two jaw surgery?
And I was also wondering if I had to get orthodontic treatment before and after surgery if I get undetectable Two jaw surgery or only get orthodontic treatment after surgery like surgery first approach method.
Also how long is the recovery period?

A. Basically, Yes! Undetectable Two jaw surgery can be done on both surgery first approach and No-Tie method.
It’s possible for the patients to arrange the surgery date after conducting all medical checkups required for surgery on the consultation day.
Usually the surgery date is arranged about 2 weeks after the consultation day, but it’s also possible arrange a surgery before then according to the patients’ personal reason.
Also the patients will be hospitalized for about 2~3 days and will have to visit hospital 2~3 times during a month.
The patients will start on orthodontic treatment a month after their surgery, and they will be required to visit dental clinic once a month.
The recovery periods differ on person, but there won’t be major discomfort during daily routine about 1~2 weeks after the patient is dismissed from hospital.
The major swelling on the surgery area will subdue about a month after surgery, and minor swelling will subdue during 3~6 months after surgery. Facial muscle movement will recover during this period and the patient will regain natural looking.

Q. I have mouth protrusion and short chin. Do I require Three jaw surgery?


I was thinking of mouth protrusion surgery or orthodontic treatment because of my protrusion but my friend told me that I may need Three jaw surgery because I have short chin.
I’ve never heard the word short chin till then… but she told me that my mouth looks even more protruded because of short chin.
I told my mom and she just told me to get orthodontic treatment but I wouldn’t have thought about Two jaw surgery if this can be improved by orthodontic treatment.
I want to know what surgery will be the most effective in my case if I have to get surgery, or I also want to know about short chin surgery if my mouth protrusion can be improved by orthodontic treatment.

A. Three jaw surgery can satisfy both cosmetic and functional effect if the patient has short chin symptoms with mouth protrusion.
Three jaw surgery for mouth protrusion is combination of Two jaw surgery and mouth protrusion surgery which improves on mouth protrusion and short chin at the same time by pushing gum bone and teeth backward to correct mouth protrusion and bringing chin forward to correct short chin. The surgery duration is about 2 hours and the patients are required to be hospitalized for a day.
Mouth protrusion can be improved by orthodontic treatment when only the patient’s teeth are protruded. Short chin symptom can be improved by mini V line surgery if the patient only has short and dull chin. However please note that we can give you detailed recommendation after detailed X-ray analysis.


ID Hospital has been suggesting solution that patients can be satisfied while leading Korea’s orthognathic surgery treatment techniques with facial bone surgery experience and skill for many years. We operate our own safe plastic surgery preoperative medical examination for safe plastic surgery, and perform mouth protrusion treatment with cooperation of maxillofacial surgery, plastic surgery, orthodontic and dental specialists.
