Key Points to Check Before and After Facial Contouring Surgery and Customized Corrections by Area
Facial contouring surgery helps create a smooth, three-dimensional face shape. 345 Plastic Surgery Clinic provides personalized surgeries for each area—including the cheekbones, square jaw, and chin—using precise 3D-CT analysis and the expertise of a surgeon with 26 years of experience. Discover key information on facial contouring that prioritizes safety to achieve harmonious proportions.
Finding Your Unique Facial Line Through Personalized Analysis
While the standard of ideal beauty varies from person to person, a smooth and slender face shape is one of the elements that creates a softer impression. If your natural face shape is a source of insecurity, facial contouring surgery can offer a harmonious transformation. At 345 Plastic Surgery Clinic, we go beyond simply shaving bone; through close 1:1 consultations, we plan the golden ratio considering the harmony with your facial features.
345 Facial Contouring Solutions for Area-Specific Concerns
Facial contouring surgical methods must vary depending on the individual's bone structure and soft tissue characteristics. The surgical features for each major area are as follows:
1. FULL Cheekbone Reduction
To reduce concerns about cheek sagging or non-union (where bones fail to fuse) that can occur after cheekbone reduction, we apply a robust double fixation method. By fixing the retaining ligaments upward, elasticity is maintained, aiming for a slimming effect from multiple angles, from the front to the side cheekbones.
2. Long-Curve Square Jaw Reduction
By resecting in a gentle, long curve from the angle below the ear to near the tip of the chin, we prevent the occurrence of secondary angles. Through angle adjustment and asymmetry correction tailored to the overall facial proportions, you can expect a natural V-line.
3. Customized Chin Surgery
We perform customized surgery based on the length, width, and degree of advancement of the chin. If the chin is short, we apply lengthening; if it is wide, reduction; and if shape improvement is needed, advancement. This helps resolve various concerns such as a receding chin or a protruding chin.
Precise Diagnostic System for Safe Surgery
345 Plastic Surgery Clinic considers patient safety our top priority. Before surgery, we use 3D-CT (Computed Tomography) equipment to thoroughly analyze bone thickness, nerve line locations, and muscle distribution. This serves as the foundation for identifying potential risk factors in advance and establishing a precise surgical plan.
Surgery and Aftercare by a Skilled Surgeon with 26 Years of Experience
Facial contouring surgery is a field that requires highly advanced surgical skills. Dr. Park Jong-rim, the head surgeon with over 10,000 surgical cases of experience, personally performs the surgeries, aiming for stable results based on his know-how as a bone expert. Since resected bone is difficult to restore, making a careful choice from the beginning is crucial.

Frequently Asked Questions
Can I prevent cheek sagging after zygoma reduction surgery?
Yes, cheek sagging can be prevented through a robust dual-fixation method. By fixing the retaining ligaments upwards, skin elasticity is maintained, and concerns about non-union where bones don't fuse are also reduced, allowing for a slim effect from the front to the side cheekbones.
Will square jaw surgery result in an unnatural angle?
We prevent the secondary angle phenomenon by excising in a gentle, long curve from the angle behind the ear to near the chin tip. By adjusting the angle to match the overall facial proportions and correcting asymmetry, a more natural V-line can be achieved.
Can a receding chin or prognathism be improved with genioplasty?
Yes, improvement is possible with customized surgery based on the individual's chin condition. For a short, receding chin, extension surgery is applied; for a wide chin, reduction surgery; and for prognathism requiring shape improvement, advancement surgery is used to address various chin shape concerns.
What safety checks are performed before facial contouring surgery?
Before surgery, a precise diagnosis is performed using 3D-CT (computed tomography) equipment. This thoroughly analyzes the patient's bone thickness, nerve line location, and muscle distribution to identify potential risks during surgery in advance and establish a safe plan.
Who performs facial contouring surgery?
Dr. Jong-rim Park, the chief director with 26 years of experience and over 10,000 surgical cases, directly performs the surgery. Facial contouring requires highly advanced techniques, and once bone is excised, it is difficult to restore, so careful and stable surgery is performed based on the expertise of a bone specialist.
