Time required for bone grinding operation in Dongguan Donghua Hospital

Bone grinding surgery is a plastic surgery that changes the facial bone structure through surgery. In Dongguan Donghua Hospital, bone grinding surgery usually needs to go through the following four stages, and often needs different time to complete.

Preliminary preparation stage

Before the bone grinding operation, the patient needs to have face-to-face consultation with the plastic surgeon of Dongguan Donghua Hospital. High quality hospitals will provide professional suggestions and assessments, and explain the process of surgery and the possible risks and effects after surgery in detail. The doctor will also accurately measure and analyze the patient's face to determine the best surgical plan. This phase usually takes about 1-2 hours.

After the surgery plan is determined, the patient needs to have a comprehensive physical examination to ensure that the physical condition is suitable for surgery. This may include blood tests, X-rays or CT scans. Once the patient has passed all the necessary examinations, the surgery date will be scheduled. This phase usually takes 1-2 weeks.

Operation stage

Bone grinding surgery is usually performed in the operating room, and patients will receive general anesthesia. The whole procedure usually takes 2-4 hours, depending on the scope and complexity of the surgery required by the patient.

During the operation, the doctor will locate and operate the facial bones according to the operation plan. Normally, doctors will operate at the facial incision and use special knives to trim, smooth or reconstruct bones. The doctor will adjust the facial bones such as mandible, zygomatic bone and orbital bone according to the patient's expectations and the overall facial proportion to achieve a better facial shape.

Postoperative recovery stage

The recovery stage is the most important part of the whole operation process. The patient needs to be hospitalized and observed for 1-2 days to ensure no complications during the operation. The doctor will recheck the operation site the next day after the operation and decide whether the plaster or bandage can be removed.

Normally, patients will feel swelling and pain within 1-2 weeks after surgery, and these reactions are normal. The doctor will give corresponding medicine and nursing advice to help reduce pain and swelling. Most patients need to rest and recover within 2-4 weeks after surgery, and try to avoid strenuous exercise and pressure. Full recovery usually takes about 3-6 months.

Operation effect and summary

The effect of bone grinding surgery varies from individual to individual. After the operation, the patient's facial contour became more symmetrical and beautiful, and the overall facial proportion was improved. The postoperative effect is obvious and has a long duration. However, patients should treat the surgical effect rationally and follow the doctor's advice for proper postoperative care to maintain good results.

In a word, it usually takes 4-8 weeks to perform the bone grinding operation in Dongguan Donghua Hospital, including the preliminary preparation stage, the operation stage and the postoperative recovery stage. Although the operation process may be short, it takes a long time to recover after operation. Patients need to understand the risks and effects of surgery, fully communicate with doctors, and do a good job in postoperative nursing to ensure that the surgery achieves ideal results.
