What is two jaw surgery and face contouring?

The two most renowned facial bone surgeries- two jaw and face contouring surgery.

But what are the differences between the two? It's very common to question yourself in your head (unless you work in the medical industry).

Both two surgeries are similar in a way that they mainly involve with facial bones to improve your face. But the main purpose for each surgery is definitely different. 

What is the purpose of two jaw surgery and face contouring? 

First of all, two jaw surgery is mainly treatment purpose. If you suffer from malocclusion or any problem with your chin area, it's to fix and locate your bones normally. But two jaw surgery is often mistakenly considered as a "beauty surgery" as it moves the lower part of your face around including chin bone and fixing your bones to where they originally belong. 

Face contouring surgically removes bones to move around or reshape them to attain slimmer and smoother face line. Compared with two jaw surgery, face contouring is rather a beauty purpose.

This method of surgery is becoming more popular nowadays as there's a constant interest towards anti-aging and looking younger. Patients desire more for small, slimmer and V-line shaped faces and therefore the desire of face contouring surgery became famous. 

Face contouring can be categorized by cheekbone reduction, jaw surgery, and chin surgery. 

Who should be doing which surgery?

Two jaw surgery is a corrective option for your lower facial part. Patients with toothless looking, lantern jaw, protruding mouth, long face, asymmetry face is all can be treated with this surgery. Of course, all these symptoms mentioned before isn't always treated with two jaw surgery. Based on your conditions, face contouring, or  even wearing braces might be the solution. 

Face contouring is treated when you prefer to change face line (big face to make it small..), such as if you have asymmetry. If your face line isn't smooth and rough, you might look older and fierce. So women prefer more to undergo this surgery to change the masculine look to more feminine style. 

    

What you need to know before surgery..

These methods are way of structuring your bones. Therefore, once you move/remove any of your bones, you won't ever go back to the previous condition before the surgery, unless if you have any problem or want the revision. And it will be more complex and difficult than the first one you went through. Therefore, don't fall for the cheap promotions when you consider about the revision surgery, but take into time searching for the history of the clinic, experienced surgeons, safety, and what kind of medical system they offer/have.
