Facial Bone Contouring Surgery Without Sagging Skin!

Why does skin sag after facial bone contouring surgery?

Sagging skin after facial bone contouring is one of the biggest drawbacks from this surgery. Double jaw surgery, not being the exception, can also lead to post-op sagging. 

Most facial bone contouring surgeons don't consider sagging problems that can occur post operation. In the case of double jaw or bone contouring surgery, the facial bone is cut and the bones are repositioned or removed, so the bone size gets smaller, but the surrounding area will remain the same as before. Gravity and natural aging can also influence this.



How can we counter this?

For the best surgical result, a systematic aftercare system will be conducted based on the patient's procedure and skin condition. A high-frequency deswelling treatment + facial skin care will replenish the elasticity after facial contouring. LED treatment and hyperbaric oxygen therapy will be done immediately after surgery and with each post-op visit. Facial bondaging lessons will be taught to the patient to help as well.

For patients who have a higher chance of heavier sagging, procedures such as micro-laser or lifting can greatly improve skin condition. At GNG Hospital, our oral and maxillo facial surgeon works hand-in-hand with our anti-aging surgeon to ensure the best result for the patient. Through step by step detail-oriented non invasive procedures, our doctors can sustain from deep inside of the skin while retaining ligament that connects the bone and skin tissues to the SMAS layer, basal layer, fat layer, and dermis. 

What to expect after surgery?

The patient will be provided a post-op goodie bag filled with everything that is needed by the patient upon discharge. This bag will be filled with all medication, ice/warm compressions, facial compression garment, gargle, ointment/antiseptics, gauze wraps, and even pumpkin juice! - at no extra cost! The patient may travel alone since he/she will be hospitalized the first two nights.

After surgery, the patient will be able to see and touch how much bone was removed. Before and after surgery photos, X Rays, and CT scans will also be shown to the patient to show how much has been improved.

Orthognathic Surgery at GNG Hospital !

For upper and low jaw correction, double jaw surgery is needed. 

 Underbite, asymmetry, functional issues, bite calibration can be corrected through surgery for the patient who may experience speaking or chewing issues.

After having a face to face consultation with our doctor, you will go to our affiliated dental office to make a wafer impression of your bite calibration. 

*Wafer is used for bimaxillary correction after double jaw surgery for 1 month.

 

After 7 days, you will be ready for surgery.

 The doctor may or may not ask you to come in earlier to check the wafer, or he may check it directly in the surgery room on the day of surgery.  

During the 1st week post op, you will be asked to return for check ups every few days. 

By the 2nd week, you are free to travel far since we will only ask you to come back once a week until the 4th week post op.

Real Review ! Before and After Facial Contouring Surgery

Before Surgery

"Hello everyone! My name is Dahye and I want to share my surgery experience at GNG Hospital!"

I always had concerns about my uneven facial line and didn't like my asymmetric face line. I thought this is because of my fat and baby fat. When my friend was looking for hospital for two jaw surgery and rhinoplasty, I visited GNG Hospital together and had consultation with my friends.

Though I didn't have plan to get plastic surgery and just got consultation, GNG Hospital provided meticulous examinations before consultation. During the consultation, I found my problem is not my fat but facial BONE!!

Before the surgery, though I lost quite a lot of weight, my facial line was uneven and my skin was droopy. I think my fat and square mandible made my skin look more droopy."


A Week Post Operation

"After one week, I am still swollen up but I can see the change after surgery! I was surprised that I don't have much swelling and bruise. My friends said I look cute as hamster!"

Two Weeks After Surgery

"It has been two months after surgery. I used to hide my uneven facial line with my hair, but these days I like to tie my hair up and do all types of hairstyles I could never do before because of my big face!!" 

Three Weeks Post Operation

"Today is Christmas! Though it's been less than one month, I don't have any trouble in my daily life. My friends said, I look much prettier than before and very natural!"

"On one month post operation, I went to Jeon-Ju city for travel. I walked around wearing Korean traditional dress. Swelling went away faster than I expected but still small swelling has left on my face. Except it, everything is perfect! Even doctors and nurses said, I am recovering really fast!"

"It has been two month after surgery. I used to hide my facial line with hair before the surgery, these days I like to tie my hair and do pony-tail style!" 




Three months post operation

" I worried about my skin would be droopy but I don't need to worry about it. I can't find droopy skin at all. "




















Six month Post Operation!
"Most of swelling has gone. I am recovering really well. Everything is perfect!😄 
Nurses at GNG Hospital were really nice and specially thanks to Doctor Choi!
Only with facial contouring, I feel like I have got new life!"

Thank you GNG Hospital!!
