Corrective Jaw Surgery for a Proper Bite (Malocclusion)

Date posted: 24-07-2026 | Last updated : 25-07-2026

A concave face (dishface) is a facial structure where the midface is sunken inward while the chin significantly protrudes forward. This disrupts facial symmetry, resulting in an imperfect side profile. In such cases, concave face surgery is the perfect solution.

1. What Is Concave Face Surgery?

Concave face surgery is an invasive cosmetic method targeting the bone structure to improve both the aesthetic appearance and functional capability of the maxillofacial region. Specifically, surgeons use ultrasonic bone cutters to shave down a portion of the jawbone and reposition it to achieve harmony between the upper and lower jaws.

Following surgery, the concave facial condition is completely resolved. Furthermore, the removed bone tissue does not regenerate over time; therefore, concave face surgery delivers permanent results.

2. Concave Face Surgery Procedure

At Kangnam Aesthetic Hospital, the concave face surgery procedure involves the following steps:

  • Step 1: Maxillofacial specialists perform a structural examination using CT Scanner equipment. Based on the 3D imaging of the facial bone structure, the doctor formulates an appropriate surgical plan.
  • Step 2: Clients undergo general health evaluations, including urine, blood, and blood pressure tests, ensuring all health requirements are met prior to surgery.
  • Step 3: Specialists and surgeons at Kangnam Aesthetic Hospital hold an in-depth consultation session. Post-surgical outcomes are simulated using 3D Vectra XT technology. Additionally, a simulated surgical pathway is modeled in 3D using advanced Webinar 4.0 technology, vividly demonstrating every surgical step.
  • Step 4: The doctor administers general anesthesia and carries out the surgery according to the predefined surgical plan. The entire procedure takes place in a sterile operating room that meets safety standards set by the Ministry of Health.
  • Step 5: The surgeon sutures the incision and applies fixation plates and screws to stabilize the facial bone structure. Afterward, the client is transferred to the post-operative care room for rest and monitoring.
