Definition and purpose of bone grinding surgery

Bone grinding surgery, or facial contouring surgery, is a method of cutting bones and reshaping them to change the appearance of the face. As a comprehensive medical institution with rich experience and technical level, Shanghai People's Hospital also carried out plastic surgery such as bone grinding surgery.

The purpose of bone grinding surgery mainly has two aspects: one is to improve the facial appearance and make the contour more harmonious and beautiful; The second is to solve some facial deformities and dysfunction, and improve the quality of life of patients.

Sequela I: surgical risk and complications

The bone grinding operation itself is a complex operation, and there may be some risks during the operation. The surgical risks mainly include surgical infection, bleeding, nerve injury, etc. Complications may also occur, such as facial swelling, pain, sensory abnormalities, etc.

In addition, the postoperative recovery period also requires professional nursing and rehabilitation of patients to avoid postoperative complications. Therefore, when carrying out bone grinding surgery, patients need to fully understand the surgical risks, and fully communicate and negotiate with doctors.

Sequela 2: abnormal sensation after operation

Bone grinding surgery involves changes in facial bones, which may cause postoperative sensory abnormalities. For example, facial numbness, tingling and pain may occur after surgery. This is because the facial nerve may be damaged during the operation, resulting in abnormal sensation. Generally, these sensory abnormalities are temporary. As time goes by, the patient's feeling will gradually return to normal.

However, some patients may have a longer duration of abnormal sensation, which seriously affects the quality of life. For these patients, Shanghai People's Hospital will provide further examination and treatment to help them recover their normal facial feelings.

Sequela 3: facial discomfort and functional impact

Bone grinding surgery changes the structure of facial bones, which may lead to facial discomfort after surgery. For example, the face may be tight, painful, swollen, etc. These discomfort generally subsided within days to weeks after surgery.

At the same time, some patients may face functional impacts such as occlusal problems and difficulty in opening after surgery. This is mainly because the operation has a certain impact on the facial bones, resulting in changes in the distribution of occlusal force. For these patients, Shanghai People's Hospital will provide corresponding treatment and rehabilitation programs according to the specific situation to help them recover facial function.

conclusion

As a plastic surgery that can improve facial appearance and solve facial deformity, bone grinding surgery has certain risks and sequelae. The risks of surgery mainly include infection, bleeding, nerve injury, etc. The complications may include swelling, pain, sensory abnormalities, etc. Postoperative problems such as abnormal sensation, facial discomfort and facial function may also occur.

Therefore, before choosing bone grinding surgery, patients should fully understand the risks and sequelae of surgery, and fully communicate and negotiate with doctors. At the same time, selecting a hospital with rich experience and technical level for surgery, such as Shanghai People's Hospital, can minimize the risk of surgery, and provide professional post-operative treatment and rehabilitation programs to help patients achieve satisfactory overall results.
