➤Create small and soft face shape through side cheekbone reduction

Face shape, along with facial features, is one of the factors that largely influences the overall atmosphere of the face. If the face shape has excessive curve or over-developed cheekbone, a tough impression may be given. Also, due to the shadow under the cheekbone, the skin will look uneven and saggy, making us look older than our actual age. In particular, I think that cheekbone is an important factor which determines 1/3 of the face contour line when we look at the face from the front. For people with side cheekbone that looks protruding rapidly from the lower part of their temples when others look at the face from the front, they will look older than their actual age, their face will look big due to excessive curve in the face line, or a fierce and strong impression may be given. This kind of problem become a complex for many of them, and many of them desire for an improvement. In general, over-developed side cheekbone is often caused by problems about skeletal structure, but not muscles or fat tissues. Therefore, there is limit if we improve it with ordinary massages or other methods with similar level with massage. 

Therefore, recently, interest in cheekbone reduction has been increasing among those who want to effectively improve their angular face shape and fierce image into soft and natural image. In particular, for people with protruding side cheekbone, not only can side cheekbone reduction adjust their face contour and make their face smaller, give a soft image, it can also help create a well-defined pretty face which looks harmonious in every angles. As a result, side cheekbone reduction is becoming more and more popular. 

What is the difference between cheekbone reduction and side cheekbone reduction? 

In general, although in most of the cheekbone reduction, the incision is done inside the mouth, in side cheekbone reduction or situation in which cheekbone is reduced, surgery is performed by firstly, cutting only the back of the cheekbone through a about 2-3cm incision in the scale or the front of the ears, then pushing the cheekbone inward, and at last, fixing it. Therefore, side cheekbone reduction is performed in a relatively simple way with general anesthesia, and the operation time takes only around 30 minutes, in which the bleeding and swelling is little. As a result, patients can get back into their daily lives more quickly, which makes it gaining popularity steadily. 

If you are concerned about the cheekbone or the protruding front cheekbone, you can expect a relatively simple surgery that applies general anesthesia, side cheekbone reduction giving improvement, However, if you want to improve the facial contour line that looks obviously protruding from the temple to the cheek when we look at the face from the front, you will need to consider side cheekbone reduction including cheekbone reduction. In our clinic's 3D cheekbone reduction, firstly, "L" shape osteotomy is done on the front part of the cheekbone. Next, some of them will be removed and the arch bone will be cut. After that, both the front and the back side of the cheekbones will be pushed inward at the same time, which reduce the cheekbone and the side cheekbone naturally and give a dramatic improving effect. 

Side cheekbone reduction is not simply a way to reduce the size of cheekbone, but it is a surgery that be performed after considering the head shape, face skeleton and overall balance which are different for all the people. That is because depending on the skeleton condition and level of curve that varies from person to person, the surgical method will be different and the effects will be different too. 

As mentioned above, as the surgery involves trimming the facial bone shape that located deep inside the skin, we can say that it is desirable for it to be performed by medical team with abundant anatomical knowledge and know-how gained by extensive clinical experience. If the surgery is performed without doing sufficient analysis of the shape and curvature of the bones as well as the surrounding tissues, it can lead to poor results, so it is recommended to consider them carefully before performing it. 

In other words, since it is a high-level surgery that needs to deal with facial bones that pass through numerous blood vessels and nerves, rather than deciding the t by just reading the reviews of side cheekbone reduction or comparing the surgery fee, you need to compare and analyze various information such as the experience and surgical method of the surgeons when you decide the hospital. In addition, I would like to recommend you to get sufficient consultation with medical staff who can provide appropriate solutions in places where you can comprehensively analyze facial bone structures, and soft tissues like muscles, fat, and skin using cutting-edge 3D-CT equipment. Last but not least, please check carefully whether the hospital is equipped with a safety system and follow-up management system so that you can improve the side cheekbones that protrude more safely, quickly and smoothly.
