Which medical specialty does mandibular angle reduction surgery belong to?

Mandibular angle reduction falls under the department of plastic and cosmetic surgery. It is a procedure designed to improve facial contours. During the operation, an incision is made inside the mouth to lift the mucosal tissue, allowing access to the mandibular angle, where excess bone is shaved down. The wound is then sutured to reshape the original facial structure. During recovery, patients should primarily consume liquid and semi-liquid foods.
