Severe facial asymmetry can be treated by surgery. The wide chin to the sharp chin will have to move the bones, also called facial contouring. There are three methods of facial contouring: surgery, injections, and fillers. Surgery mainly includes bone amputation, fat suction, etc.; injection is the most used botulinum toxin injection, mainly to inhibit the nerve innervation of the bite muscle, so that this muscle gradually atrophy; soft tissue filling includes its own material such as its own free fat, and other biological materials such as artificial bone, silicone, etc.. Hydrogel injections are not safe and not suitable for Oriental people. The post-operative swelling of bone reshaping surgery is obvious, and it takes at least two weeks to recover, and after one month the raw people will not see the traces, and the obvious improvement of the surgical effect can be seen only after two or three months, and the best effect can be seen after six months; the simpler liposuction can be basically recovered in three or four days.
