- No “nonunion”
In seamless zygoma reduction surgery, the front part of the cheekbone is not cut and fixed, so there is no concern about nonunion at all.

2. A clear “side cheekbone reduction effect”
In the midface, the contour of the side cheekbone that determines the width of the face is defined by the zygomatic arch, which starts from the body of the cheekbone and flares outward.
In seamless zygoma reduction surgery, the spread zygomatic arch is brought inward as much as possible, so the reduction effect on the side cheekbone is the most definite.

3. No “cheek sagging”
The occurrence of cheek sagging associated with zygoma reduction surgery depends on the direction in which the cheekbone is changed.
In zygoma reduction surgery, depending on which area is reduced, the direction of movement of the soft tissue covering the cheekbone may also change.
In seamless zygoma reduction surgery, the zygomatic arch located in the posterosuperior area of the cheekbone is reduced, so after surgery the soft tissue moves in a posterosuperior direction, eliminating concern about cheek sagging.

4. Preserving the “continuity” of the front cheekbone - 45-degree cheekbone - side cheekbone
The most important thing in facial contour is the natural and smooth continuity of the facial contour line.
In seamless zygoma reduction surgery, the continuity of the contour line connecting the front cheekbone to the side cheekbone is preserved, so there is no unnatural step-like appearance caused by discontinuity at the osteotomy site.
