The popular article about face-lifting, worried about the cheekbone, jaw angle surgery after the skin sagging problem, please take a closer look. 1, cheekbone reduction surgery surgery is much the same, the purpose is to reduce the zygomatic arch and cheekbone, there are certain experts to promote the so-called improved surgery can eliminate the problem of sagging, in fact, is a gimmick. It has nothing to do with what procedure or what specialist you choose. The procedure itself determines the risk of sagging. For example, the skin on our cheekbones is like a dress, and the cheekbones are the hangers that hold up the dress. But if you suddenly change the hanger to a smaller one, the clothes are bound to wrinkle or sag. If someone says I’m exceptionally good at changing hangers and my clothes are still held up very straight after the change, do you believe me? Sounds pessimistic, doesn’t it. Then why do so many other people have surgery on their cheekbones and it’s actually not that bad? Yes, sagging is a certainty, but there is a degree of severity. People who are young, whose nasolabial folds are not deep, who have good skin elasticity, and whose cheekbones do not need to be drastically reduced, may not be so obvious after surgery, and may even partially recover. If the sagging is obvious, it can also be solved by soft tissue lifting. The decision to do or not to do surgery is up to you. If I have surgery, will I age faster than my peers? The surgery will not have an effect on the long term, after 20 years you will look old or not only related to your genes and maintenance. 2, the jaw angle surgery surgery, the same as the cheekbone surgery, the current jaw angle surgery are very mature, as long as the regular hospital, professional physicians, there is no problem in the operation, as for what “weapon” to get the jaw angle down, are not the key issues, some people say that the so-called improved surgery, improved equipment, individuals I think there is a suspicion of hype. (1) The issue of safety. The jaw angle surgery is a level 3 surgery, what does it mean? Only deputy chief physician title, in level 3 or higher hospitals can do this surgery. So – you can’t do this surgery in a cosmetic facility. The cosmetic consultant will not tell you the inside story. The jaw angle surgery is performed under general anesthesia and the trachea is intubated, so there is no bleeding during the surgery that could lead to choking. However, if the tracheal tube is removed after surgery, bleeding occurs in the operating area, which may cause death by asphyxiation, and this is also a lesson in blood. So this shows a problem – the safety of surgery is not only related to the main surgeon, but also has a lot to do with the anesthesiologist. In addition an excellent anesthesiologist will work well with the primary surgeon to lower the blood pressure appropriately during the operation so that bleeding is reduced. Therefore, in order to be safe, you must choose a regular tertiary hospital, and a reliable expert. (2) The problem of sagging skin and soft tissue. The sagging after jaw angle surgery is not obvious (compared with cheek bone surgery), why? First of all, the soft tissue covering the jaw angle area is thicker (the bite muscle is directly attached to the jaw bone), just like a cotton jacket with a hanger, if the hanger is replaced with a smaller one, the shape of the jacket will not be affected much. Secondly, below the cheekbone is the nasolabial folds, and below the angle of the jaw is the neck, even if it is mildly sagging, it will not have a particularly obvious impact visually. And the nasolabial folds even slightly deepened will be very old. 3, chin osteotomy For patients with particularly severe shortening of the chin, the chin osteotomy can only be used to correct the way. The chin osteotomy is moved forward, lengthened and fixed with a small titanium plate. This is an additive surgery, which will hold up the soft tissue skin of the chin, so there will be no sagging problem, instead it will partially improve the problem of double chin and deepen the chin and neck angle.
