Introduction
Changing facial shape is usually achieved through cosmetic surgery or non-surgical aesthetic procedures, which generally include injections of botulinum toxin type A, mandibular angle整形 (mandibular angle reshaping), facial liposuction, chin augmentation, and osteotomy. If you have any concerns, it is recommended to seek medical advice in advance. All of the above methods should be performed under the guidance of qualified hospitals and professional doctors. Additionally, post-operative care and recovery must follow medical instructions.
Changing facial shape is usually achieved through plastic surgery or non-surgical cosmetic procedures, generally including injection of botulinum toxin type A, mandibular angle整形 (mandibular angle整形 likely refers to整形 surgery of the mandibular angle), facial liposuction, chin augmentation, and osteotomy. If you have any concerns, it is recommended to seek medical consultation in advance. Detailed explanations are as follows:
1. Botulinum toxin type A injection: If a wide facial shape is caused by developed muscles in the mandibular area, botulinum toxin type A injection may be considered. This injection uses botulinum toxin to cause muscle contraction, thereby achieving a slimming effect on the facial shape. This method is relatively simple to perform, offers good safety, and is relatively affordable.
2. Mandibular angle整形: If a square facial shape is caused by a prominent mandibular angle, mandibular angle整形 can be performed. By cutting or reshaping the excess bone of the mandibular angle, the facial shape can be altered to achieve a slimmer face. This method provides long-lasting results, but the surgery is relatively complex and should be performed by a reputable hospital and qualified physician.
3. Facial liposuction: A wide facial shape caused by excessive facial fat can be improved through facial liposuction. Removing the excess fat from the face can improve and reduce the overall facial appearance. Facial liposuction involves minimal trauma and offers a quick recovery, although it is relatively expensive.
4. Chin augmentation: Individuals with a short and wide facial shape may consider chin augmentation surgery. By injecting hyaluronic acid or implanting autologous fat, the chin can be elongated, improving the facial shape to a瓜子脸 (oval or tapered face) or鹅蛋脸 (egg-shaped face). This method not only improves facial shape but also provides hydration and makes the local skin appear fuller.
5. Osteotomy: If the zygomatic bone (cheekbone) is wide, making the entire face appear disproportionate, osteotomy surgery can be considered. Osteotomy can improve the width of the zygomatic bone, thereby achieving the goal of improving facial shape, with quick and long-lasting results. However, this procedure carries relatively higher surgical risks and should be chosen carefully.
All the above methods should be performed under the guidance of a reputable hospital and qualified physician to ensure surgical safety and results. Additionally, postoperative care and recovery should follow medical advice.
