3 types face contouring!

The outline of the face has a great influence on the external image as it is just like a bowl that contains all the facial features. Generally, the outline of the face is determined by the facial bones and soft tissues covering the facial bones, which means the muscles, subcutaneous fat layers, and skin. For the facial bones of the faces that we commonly think they looks young, many of their areas including the front cheekbones, forehead, nose bridge, nose ridge, and chin usually protrude moderately, and the jawline that starts at the cheekbones is smooth.

So, large and angled square jaw, and the protuberant cheekbones will make people look old, while lantern jaw or wide front chin will give a fierce image. These situations can be a reason for an external complex. People may want to solve this kind of complex through improving the face with various methods like make-up, strong massage or facial injection operation, but the fundamental problem caused by the bone cannot be solved through these methods.

Therefore, in these days, people want to improve the problem even with the help of the strength of medicine, and are more interested in facial contouring surgery which can give definite effect and change the face into a smaller and slimmer face. We can say that cheekbone reduction, square jaw reduction and front jaw surgery that are always being mentioned by people are included in facial contouring surgery. 

These facial contour surgeries may be partially performed, depending on the areas of concern, such as protruding cheekbones, angled square jaws, spatula jaws, or wide front jaws. And depending on the needs, sometimes, 3 type face contouring is done in which surgery is done on the entire area. In other words, face contouring surgeries done on the cheekbone, square jaw and front jaw are being shortened and expressed in 3 type face contouring.

In the 3type face contouring, cheekbone reduction is performed by firstly, deciding the amount of incision and the range of movement in consideration of the cheekbone shape that varies from person to person, and then moving the front torso and rear arch of the cheekbone inward, and then incising and moving the trunk of the cheekbone in the front and the arch area of the cheekbone in the back inward. The moved cheekbones are fixed with titanium pins, so the ligaments connecting the skin and the cheekbones can be fixed and pulled firmly. As a result, the bones will not get widened while the curve of the face can be improved and the width can be reduced, making a smooth line. And in the case of square jaw reduction which reduces the side jawline, front jaw surgery that make the front jaw slimmer are being performed together, in which the angle starting from the bottom of the ears till to the end of the jaw is being removed, and a slim and V-line facial shape can be created. At this time, cortical resection or muscle resection that reduce the thickness of the jaw bone which is closest to the skin may also be done depending on the individuals' condition. 

As such, not only does 3 type face contouring make the entire face smaller and smoother, it also makes your face look more refined and younger. We can say that this surgery is an effective way for those who want to improve their fierce impression caused by large, bumpy face lines, asymmetric face shapes and long jaw...etc.

In our clinic, as cortical resection that reduces the thickness of the jaw bone that is closest to the face and make the face look slim and narrower when looking it from the front is also be done sometimes, there are many cases in which 4 type face contouring is being performed. However, not all people need to have 3 type face contouring or 4 type face contouring. Therefore, it is better for you to decide having a face contouring surgery that suits your own facial shape though sufficient consultations.

We can see 3 type face contouring as a surgery that help improve aesthetics through changing the facial bones structurally. As it is a surgery that reduces the bones, tidies up the protruding cheekbones, square jaw and wide front jaw, makes the facial shape smaller and makes the face contour line smoother, there are some parts that need to be checked carefully before having the surgery. In order to obtain a satisfactory result, it is important to make a surgical plan within a safe range by grasping the structure of facial bones that varies from person to person. That is because in bone-incising surgery, overall balance of the face is also important.
