Overview

Cheekbones reduction surgery, also known as malar reduction or zygoma reduction, is a cosmetic procedure aimed at reducing the prominence of the cheekbones to achieve a more balanced and harmonious facial appearance. This surgery is commonly sought by individuals who feel their cheekbones are too prominent or disproportionate to the rest of their facial features.

Description

Cheekbones reduction surgery involves reshaping or reducing the size of the zygomatic bones to create a softer and more balanced facial contour. This procedure can address issues such as overly prominent cheekbones or facial asymmetry.

Consultation

During the consultation, Dr. Chaudhari will conduct a thorough evaluation of your facial structure, discuss your aesthetic goals, and review your medical history. Advanced imaging techniques, such as 3D scans or X-rays, may be utilized to assess the cheekbones and plan the surgery. Dr. Chaudhari will explain the procedure, potential risks, and expected outcomes to ensure your goals align with realistic expectations.

Procedure

  • Anesthesia: The surgery is typically performed under general anesthesia to ensure patient comfort.
  • Incisions: Incisions are usually made inside the mouth, reducing visible scarring. In some cases, small incisions may be made near the hairline.
  • Bone Reduction: The zygomatic bones are carefully reshaped or reduced using specialized surgical instruments. This may involve removing a portion of the bone or repositioning it to achieve the desired contour.
  • Fixation: If necessary, the bones are stabilized using plates, screws, or other fixation devices.
  • Closure: Incisions are closed with sutures, and dressings are applied to protect the surgical sites.

After Surgery

  • Recovery: Swelling and bruising are common and may take several weeks to subside. Patients may need to follow a liquid or soft diet initially.
  • Pain Management: Discomfort can be managed with prescribed pain medications.
  • Activity: Patients should avoid strenuous activities and follow specific postoperative instructions to ensure proper healing.
  • Follow-up: Regular follow-up appointments with Dr. Chaudhari will monitor progress and address any concerns.

Results

    The results of cheekbones reduction surgery are typically visible once the swelling subsides, with final results becoming more apparent over several months. The outcome can significantly enhance facial balance and overall appearance. Results are generally long-lasting, although maintaining a healthy lifestyle can help preserve the achieved improvements.

Complications

While cheekbones reduction surgery is generally safe, potential complications include:
  • Infection
  • Asymmetry or irregular contours
  • Nerve damage leading to numbness or altered sensation
  • Prolonged swelling or bruising
  • Difficulty with chewing or speaking
  • Scarring
Disclaimer: Results may vary from person to person. It is important to have realistic expectations and understand that additional procedures may be necessary to achieve optimal results.
