In traditional Eastern aesthetics, many people consider high cheekbones to be an imperfect face shape. Because Asian faces are generally flat and not very three-dimensional, high cheekbones do not reveal the beauty of Europeans and Americans with high noses and deep eyes, but rather make the temples and cheeks appear relatively sunken due to high cheekbones. The entire facial contour will appear abrupt, uncoordinated, and even give people the feeling of aging and mean, not easy to approach. The zygomatic bone can be divided into two parts: the “zygomatic body” and the “zygomatic arch”, which is an important bony support in the middle of the face and an important part of the facial contour. The cheekbones are in harmony with the nose and cheeks, and a proper prominence will give people a sense of vitality and charm; if the cheekbones are too high or too low, it will destroy the harmony of the face, and only through cheekbone surgery can the face be changed. So what are the surgical options for cheekbone surgery? 1, high cheekbones and hypertrophy: high cheekbones and hypertrophy, can grind or chisel off excessive bones, and then use special materials to reconnect and reshape the separated bones to maximize the change of the entire facial contour and shape. 2.Low and sunken cheekbones: For those with low or sunken cheekbones, zygomatic bone augmentation surgery is required, mainly by means of implantation of prosthesis, which is designed in advance to be inserted into the cheekbone, thus raising the cheekbone and improving the entire facial contour and shape. 3.Zygomatic arch hypertrophy: the hypertrophy of the zygomatic arch will cause a wide facial shape, which can be fixed through zygomatic arch internal pushing surgery to move the zygomatic arch to a normal position, and if there is a high zygomatic bone at the same time, it can also be smoothed together. What is the difference between zygomatic bone thrusting and bone grinding? Inward zygomatic bone thrusting: The surgery shortens the circumference of the cheekbone and then rotates it to change the volume of the cheekbone, pushing the zygomatic arch and cheekbone inward to achieve the effect of zygomatic bone reduction. In one sentence, it means that the ends of the cheekbone and zygomatic arch are treated, such as truncated or semi-truncated, and then this section of bone is moved inward to achieve the purpose of lowering the cheekbone or inwardly closing the zygomatic arch. Zygomatic bone grinding: Bone grinding is generally done with electric bone grinding instruments, which are rotated at high or low speed to reduce the bone. So, am I suitable for cheekbone inversion or bone grinding? Bone grinding surgery is suitable for people with prominent cheekbones due to thick bones. By removing a certain amount of cheekbone, the bones are thinned to achieve a reduction in cheekbone. Most people are more suitable for cheekbone osteotomy. Depending on the situation, it is also possible to first osteotomy and then bone grinding to make the post-operative contour closer to the aesthetic standard. Will my cheekbones sag after cheekbone surgery? This is one of the most concerned risks. Generally, with a young age and good skin elasticity, there is no need to consider sagging at all by matching surgical techniques. If you are really worried, you can do a good anti-aging program to prevent it after surgery. Usually people who are prone to sagging are: people whose skin itself is loose and lacking in elasticity; people whose cheekbones and zygomatic arches are too prominent; people with too much soft tissue on their faces, these types of people need to do preventive measures in advance after surgery if they want to do cheekbone surgery. Do high cheekbones have to be solved by cheekbone surgery? High cheekbones should be solved according to the specific cause. If it is a skeletal problem, it is solved by internal displacement of cheekbone osteotomy. If the high cheekbones are due to sunken temples or cheeks, the facial contour can be restored through fat grafting to improve the problem of high cheekbones. The cheekbone and zygomatic arch surgery should pay special attention to the magnitude of the surgery. A moderate reduction can help to obtain a coordinated and smooth facial contour, but too low cheekbones can make the face look flat and counterproductive. Of course, an experienced surgeon will take care of these key issues for you without the patient having to say much. However, it is very difficult to repair the collapse of the face if the technique is not up to par and the inexperienced surgeon is too heavy-handed, so be sure to choose a hospital that is qualified for this type of surgery.
