'Orthognathic surgery VS Facial contouring surgery' which one do I need?

Orthognathic surgery and facial contouring surgery is well known for their effect that makes the face smaller. It’s not surprising for the size of face to decrease as much as the amount that the bone was reduced after facial bone surgery that improves jaw’s malocclusion and smoothes face’s curve.

Due to this, people are knocking on the plastic surgery clinics’ doors to get two jaw surgery and facial contouring surgery that make smaller face. However, it seems like there aren’t many people who know that these two similar surgeries have different purpose.

Dr. Sang Hoon Park, plastic surgery specialist at ID hospital explained “There is significant difference between two jaw surgery and facial contouring surgery’s functional purpose apart from the fact that these two allows aesthetic improvement.” “It’s possible to have both functional improvement and smaller face when the current face’s problems are exactly identified and the suitable surgery method is chosen to solve each problem.”

Facial bone surgery’s surgery method is decided based on the shape, thickness, and the size of facial bone, and the teeth’s occlusion. Wrong information that says Orthognathic surgery is chosen when the patients expect huge effect even though the surgical process is hard, and the facial contouring is chosen when the patients doesn’t expect huge change but wants fast recovery, is often found, however the facial bone structure should be considered first when facial bone surgery is decided. 

The major criteria for the decision on Orthognathic surgery and facial contouring surgery are the occlusion f teeth. Orthognathic surgery is done when there’s problem on teeth’s occlusion such as protruded jaw and asymmetric face, and the facial contouring surgery is suitable when there is no problem on occlusion, but the patients want to improve on bone’s shape.

Variety of surgery methods are developed such as surgery-first approach Orthognathic surgery and no-tie two jaw surgery that can improve on Orthognathic surgery’s long treatment period and the discomfort of intermaxillary fixation through endless research development.

Facial contouring surgery methods developed recently such as MVP square jaw reduction surgery, High-L Osteotomy cheekbone reduction that can maximize V-line surgery effects appeared which allowed aesthetic improvement and effective functional improvement no matter which facial bone surgery the patients choose.

Dr. Park advised “Facial bone surgery method should be chosen according to exact diagnose, and the surgery satisfaction can be maximized when the functional improvement and aesthetic improvement is satisfied at the same time by cooperation of plastic surgery specialists, dentists, and maxillofacial surgery specialists after detailed analysis of facial structure by latest diagnosis equipment.”
