Is bone-shaving surgery risky?
Disease description:
My face is particularly wide, and I would like to undergo mandibular angle reduction surgery to improve its appearance. Is this procedure risky?
Bone contouring surgery is generally considered low-risk; however, like any surgical procedure, it carries inherent risks. Therefore, it must be performed at a reputable, specialized hospital. After surgery, meticulous local wound care is essential—ensure proper anti-inflammatory treatment and maintain facial hygiene. Avoid strenuous physical activity too soon after surgery, and refrain from rubbing or massaging the surgical site with your hands, as this may compromise surgical outcomes. Additionally, avoid consuming excessively hard foods.
