How to make a big face smaller? Detailed explanation of various face-slimming techniques

In modern society, it has become fashionable to pursue an elegant and quiet oval face or a delicate and exquisite melon-seed face, and the number of people requesting cosmetic face-lift surgery has increased significantly. Nowadays, there are more and more women coming from ordinary professions, and students account for a considerable proportion. However, many people do not know much about this cosmetic surgery and are often misled by false private medical advertisements in society. We know that facial contours are mainly affected by hard tissue and soft tissue structures. Hard tissue is bones. The most obvious influence on facial contour is the mandible, cheekbones and frontal bones. Soft tissue includes skin, muscles, subcutaneous fat and various fat pads. Face slimming surgery is to achieve the purpose of face slimming by adjusting the height and thickness of the above tissues.

1. For hypertrophy and protrusion of facial bones, part of the bones can be thinned or removed, which is an important means of changing the facial contour. Monsterio, an internationally renowned plastic surgeon, pointed out that a beautiful appearance is not only determined by fair and smooth skin, but more importantly, there must be a perfect craniofacial bone framework structure.

This framework structure determines the beauty or ugliness of one's appearance, as well as its gender, age, racial and individual characteristics. For example, a wide mandibular angle manifests itself as a wide and thick lower face, commonly known as "big cheeks", which gives a masculine and rough feeling; while a diamond-shaped face with high cheekbones gives a sense of being mean or haggard.

By partially removing the jaw angle, grinding the cheekbones or moving the zygomatic arches inward, you can achieve an immediate effect and restore soft facial curves. Since cosmetic surgery requires no traces, we make an incision through the oral mucosa and use a special maxillofacial surgery micro-oscillating saw to safely complete the surgery within forty minutes under local anesthesia.

2. Different methods can be used to treat the hyperplasia and hypertrophy of facial soft tissue.

1. For those with hypertrophy of the masticatory muscles (masseter muscles), partial muscle resection can be performed. We often use the intraoral incision for partial mandibular angle resection to complete the procedure at the same time to reshape a soft and delicate facial shape.

In addition to surgical methods, in recent years, the method of using botulinum toxin type A injection to slim the face has become very popular and the operation can be completed within a few minutes. Its function is to cause partial atrophy of the masseter muscle without affecting its basic physiological function. The cheeks will begin to gradually become thinner 1-3 months after the injection. The effect can last for 1-2 years and the injection can be repeated. If you find that your face doesn't look good after becoming thinner, you can restore it to its original state.

2. For "apple face" with swollen cheeks and "double chin" with fat accumulation under the chin, it is advisable to use a tiny incision (2-3mm) behind the ear or under the chin to perform liposuction or an intraoral incision to remove the buccal fat pad to restore a clear-cut, three-dimensional, youthful and pretty face. The operation takes about an hour.

Generally speaking, the effect of face-slimming surgery is most obvious in bone plastic surgery. Patients need to fast and stay in the hospital for 2 days after the surgery, and the recovery period is about 2 weeks. Partial masseter resection is often used as an adjunct to partial mandibular angle resection. Injections for face slimming are simple and have certain effects, but repeated injections are required to maintain the effects. Facial liposuction or buccal fat pad removal is only suitable for patients with local fat accumulation, and pressure bandage is required for 2 weeks after the operation.

In some cases, we may recommend a combination of treatments. Here we need to remind everyone that all plastic surgery is based on safety, and the results will depend on the specific circumstances. Not everyone can have a petite and delicate face through surgery.

Risk prevention in plastic surgery should be our primary consideration. In order to ensure local smoothness and natural harmony of expression, not too much should be removed, otherwise you will look "tired and old" after the operation. In addition, the face is rich in blood vessels and nerves and has a delicate tissue structure, so surgical operations must be precise and gentle, otherwise asymmetry or visible damage may occur.

Different people have different definitions of beauty, and many surgical operations are irreversible, which requires doctors and patients to work together to plan weight loss plans based on each person's facial features and temperament. Dear readers who want to be beautiful, if you want to undergo face-slimming surgery, you must discuss it in detail with a plastic surgeon with high professional qualities, strictly grasp the indications, and choose the correct method.
