Hello, this is Director Jo Dong-pil of AB Plastic Surgery.
I will answer the questions you have been curious about.
Q. I had square jaw surgery, but the right side of my jaw is not smooth and feels uneven. It also feels uneven to the touch. Was the surgery done incorrectly? Do I need revision surgery?
AB. First, we need to check what kind of surgery was performed.
It depends on whether only square jaw surgery was done, or square jaw surgery and cortical bone shaving were done together, and also on how much time has passed since the surgery.
In the early stage after surgery, even if the bone was cut very smoothly, unevenness may be felt due to muscle recovery or scar tissue.
In particular, if cortical osteotomy was performed as well, unevenness may be present in the early stage. In this case, there is absolutely no need to worry.
However, if the square jaw was cut unevenly on CT, the unevenness may still be felt over time.
In this case, because the condition continues even as time passes, the problem must be addressed again through revision surgery.
If you have any other questions, please feel free to leave a comment. Thank you.
