What are the dangers of bone grinding to thin the face?

What are the dangers of bone grinding for face thinning? In recent years, with the increasing popularity of plastic surgery, many female friends who love beauty have embarked on the road of plastic surgery. During this period, many female friends have spent their life savings but failed in plastic surgery. Examples like these are everywhere in life. So let’s talk about the dangers of bone grinding for face thinning today, because many female friends are more interested in bone grinding for face thinning.

Bone grinding and face slimming surgery may cause fractures, bleeding, and nerve damage.

1. Fracture is a common complication of mandibular angle osteotomy. When performing mandibular angle resection, due to errors in the design of the osteotomy line or incomplete bone cutting, especially when there is still cortical bone connected to the posterior edge of the ramus, the mandibular angle is forcibly severed with a bone knife, causing the osteotomy line to be disconnected from the relatively weak sigmoid notch instead of the posterior edge of the ramus. Therefore, special attention should be paid to the direction of the osteotomy line at the posterior part of the mandibular angle. Be sure to completely cut the bone at the posterior edge of the ramus before using a bone knife to separate the mandibular angle. Do not use violence when using a bone knife.

2. Accidental bleeding during surgery and hematoma formation after surgery. Inadvertent damage to well-known blood vessels during mandibular angle osteotomy can cause accidental bleeding. If the incision on the oral mucosa is too high, the buccal artery and vein may be cut off. In this case, ligation or electrocoagulation should be performed to stop bleeding. If the osteotomy line is too high during osteotomy and injures the inferior alveolar nerve and blood vessel bundle in the mandibular canal, it may cause severe bleeding. Therefore, when designing the osteotomy line, care should be taken to avoid the mandibular canal and not to cut off too much of the mandibular angle. Surgery in this area should be performed subperiosteally.

3. Unsatisfactory correction effect. Some patients not only have overdeveloped mandibular angles and hypertrophy of the masseter muscles, which leads to a wide lower face, but also a significantly wide upper face. Mandibular angle plasty alone cannot achieve the ideal treatment effect. Therefore, it is necessary to make a comprehensive analysis and evaluation of the patient's facial shape before surgery, and tell the patient the existing problems and the possible effects of the surgery in a realistic manner. Using an oscillating saw to perform mandibular angle osteotomy is quick and easy, but it is difficult to perform osteotomy accurately along the designed osteotomy line and range. A common problem is to cut the mandibular angle in a straight line. At this time, the angular protrusions at both ends of the osteotomy section must be polished and corrected. A secondary osteotomy can be performed if necessary.

4. Damage to the facial nerve and parotid duct. Mandibular angle plasty via the intraoral approach is less likely to injure the facial nerve, but if the masseter muscle is separated too superficially or the outer layer of the masseter muscle is removed by mistake, the buccal branch and marginal mandibular branch of the facial nerve may be damaged. Separation and resection of the masseter muscle too high and too superficially may also damage the parotid duct. Therefore, during surgery, only the inner layer of the masseter muscle is required to be removed, and the range of muscle removal is limited to the lower half of the mandibular branch to avoid damaging the facial nerve and parotid duct.

5. Injury to the corner of the mouth and surrounding soft tissues. When performing surgery in the oral cavity, the field of vision is limited. Sometimes, excessive pulling of the soft tissues in order to fully expose the osteotomy site can cause strain on the corner of the mouth. Applying a small amount of chloramphenicol eye ointment around the lips can effectively prevent and alleviate this complication.

We have introduced in detail the five dangers of bone grinding for face slimming above. We hope that all female friends will pay attention to it, because bone grinding for face slimming surgery is likely to cause fractures, bleeding or nerve damage, etc. If the situation is more serious, it may even cause harm to our body. Therefore, it is recommended that female friends think twice before plastic surgery.
