Elastic Fixation after the double jaw surgery, will prevent you from recurrence phenomenon.

Restoration process for double jaw surgery. Elastic fixation!

Today, we are going to learn about the fixing of the upper and lower jaw after the operation of the double jaw surgery.

 

 

First of all, double jaw surgery involves a protruding mouth and jutting chin. This surgery is performed when there is a problem with jaw function due to symptoms such as facial asymmetry. These symptoms are prone to damage to the facial line and at the same time, they often have functional problems, such as malocclusion, which requires improvement through surgery.

In other words, double jaw surgery is the primary purpose of treatment.

Since double jaw surgery is a surgery with a large amount of bone movement, some changes occur in the facial contour after the surgery. Since a few years ago, media have only highlighted the aesthetic effects of the double jaw surgery, increasing awareness of double jaw surgery. But it's a difficult operation and you shouldn't choose it just for beauty purposes.

On the other hand, double jaw surgery is often difficult to decide because of the interstitial fixation and recovery period of at least two weeks after surgery.

In double jaw surgery, the interstitial fixation is a necessary process for the upper and lower jaws to be properly fused in normal positions, which were subsequently moved. It's the same principle that when we break our arms or legs, we cast our bones so that they stick together in place.

Complete fixation, which is the traditional method of fixing the whole band, is a method of securing the entire bandage. While the bones were well bonded, it was difficult to open your mouth after fixing it, so you had to take the inconvenience of eating or talking.
Complementing this problem was the non-fixed method, which allowed the jaw to retract freely, while there was no fixed jaw, which could prevent the jaw from sticking properly in its normal position.

It is the tightening that complements the shortcomings of the complete and non-fixed methods.
Resilient fixation minimizes the inconvenience of fixing or eating only two parts of the handrail using a specially designed medical elastic band, and prevents the jaw from moving out of position, which is a less likely way to deform postoperative results and more stable surgical results can be expected.

Lee Jin-soo, doctor of Facial Plastic Surgery clinic, presented clinical results in 2005 under the theme of "Structured elastic banding to minimize surgical recurrence right after a double jaw surgery."
The elastic fixation must be based on the surgeon's surgical experience and know-how in order to improve the shape of the face, as the fixation must be carefully aligned so that the upper and lower jaws can move freely while being well integrated in normal positions.

It's not right to say that you're going to have a double jaw surgery unconditionally, but on the contrary, if you keep leaving it unattended even though you're afraid of double jaw surgery or have a malocclusion or joint disease due to the burden of recovery period, it's better to improve it through proper treatment.

You can also see a recent advertisement for the double jaw surgery that cost a lot. It is better to examine the surgical experience of the surgeon rather than the cost, and the surgical methods of each surgeon vary slightly, so it is recommended to carefully examine the surgical methods and care that are most suitable for you.

Faceline, a plastic surgery clinic in Seoul,  has been conducting double jaw  and facial co surgery since 2005 until now. Research activities have been continuously conducted, including presentations by academic societies every year based on research results.

Once the bone is resected, it cannot be returned to its original state, so please carefully examine it and select the surgery with the suffient daignosis with the doctor.
