Jaw surgery

Mouth breathing, dry mouth, jaw pain, difficulty chewing, and an inability to bite led me to double jaw surgery. Here are my results.

Jaw surgery, or orthognathic surgery is usually done in combination with braces, Invisalign, or some other orthodontic procedure.

On Thursday, August 23, 2018 I had double jaw surgery. This included a Le Fort 3 Osteotomy on my upper jaw and a Bilateral Sagittal Split Osteotomy on my lower jaw. This corrective jaw surgery (otherwise known as orthognathic surgery) was done to fix skeletal and dental irregularities I was born with. Read on to hear about my surgery and recovery experience two weeks post operation.

Many patients think they need double jaw surgery to get a smaller face! Orthognathic surgery is more of a functionality surgery. ID Hospital specializes in orthognathic surgeries and facial bone surgeries.

Ten months post double jaw surgery I'm sharing what jaw surgery recovery was like: from timelines to cost to whether or not I would do it again.

The upper jaw was repositioned upward and forward and the lower jaw was set back to correct the underbite and to improve profile, smile and appearance.

Facial contouring surgery can help create a more balanced and attractive look by reshaping the bones in your face 🧚‍♀️ Common procedures include cheekbone reduction, jaw reduction, & chin reshaping. These will be customised to your specific needs and combined for the best results👍🏻 Although the recovery period to see full results can be lengthy, many patients find the permanent results well worth it✨ Let us help you plan a safe and successful plastic surgery trip to Korea ❤️ For all…
