A friend of mine will soon need to go to the hospital for mandibular angle reduction surgery. I've heard that this procedure is relatively complex—how high are the risks associated with mandibular angle surgery?

Dr. Li Qiang
Jaw angle整形 surgery generally carries certain risks, but if patients choose a reputable hospital and an experienced surgeon, the risks are usually minimal. This procedure primarily involves making incisions in the jaw angle area and removing excess bone to achieve aesthetic improvement. However, if patients select an unaccredited facility, undergo surgery with an inexperienced doctor, have poor physical health, or fail to follow proper postoperative care, the risks may significantly increase.
