Mandibular Angle Reduction (Facial Contouring Surgery)

· Those in Bangkok looking for face contouring surgery.
· Those with a large/square-shaped jaw.
· Those who wish to reduce the size of their jaw.
· Those who wish to undergo facial contouring surgery.
· Those who wish to achieve a jaw size that is more proportionate to their other facial features.

Occasionally known as jaw reduction or Mandibular Angleplasty, Mandibular Angle Reduction is done to transform a square shaped face into a more delicate and feminine facial appearance.
This surgical procedure is effective in correcting prominent body and angle of the lower jaw, thus reducing the width of your lower face, changing a square face to an oval or “V” shaped face.

In some cases, mandibular angle reduction surgery is combined with other facial contouring surgeries such as zygoma reduction, masseter muscle reduction or chin surgery (genioplasty) to achieve facial balance. Mandible angle reduction surgery is often performed using the intraoral approach, which results in no visible scars.

1. Consultation and examination
2. General anaesthesia is conducted.
3. Several cuts are made in the jawbones and they are moved into the desired position.
4. The bones are secured in their new position using tiny bone plates, screws, wires or rubber bands.

<Advantages>
· Non-visible scar (intra-oral)
· Permanent results
· Achieve a more feminine look
· Restores balance and improves facial harmony
· Reduces jaw size
· Short downtime (3-4 weeks)

<Limitations>
· Soft diet must be followed for 2 to 3 weeks
· Head elevation during sleeping (3 to 4 weeks)
· Cold compressing dressing around the lower jaw might be used (3 to 7 days)

Q1: Will there by any scars on my face?
A1: Many prefer the intra-oral approach because this technique shows no scars after surgery.

Q2: Must the screws used to secure the jawbones be removed?
A2: No. The screws are actually tiny brackets like the ones used in dental braces and they will become integrated into the bone structure over time.

Q3: Are there medical benefits of undergoing a mandibular angle reduction?
A3: For non-aesthetic purposes, mandibular angle reduction is able to improve teeth function and improve chewing, breathing and swallowing. However, this largely depends on your condition. Consult a doctor before deciding whether or not to undergo mandibular angle reduction.
