Risk of bone grinding surgery
Bone grinding is a common cosmetic surgery, which aims to change the facial bone structure and make the facial contour more three-dimensional and beautiful. However, like any surgery, bone grinding surgery also has certain risks. The following will elaborate on the risks of bone grinding surgery from four aspects: worsening facial problems, infection risk, nerve injury and postoperative recovery.
1、 Deteriorate facial problems
Bone grinding surgery can lead to worsening facial problems, especially if not properly selected. The purpose of bone grinding surgery is to adjust according to personal needs and bone structure. However, if the preoperative assessment is not accurate or the surgical technique is not perfect, it may lead to facial asymmetry or abnormal shape. In addition, if too many bones are removed during the operation, the facial morphology may become extremely flat, and the whole face will lose the sense of three-dimensional.
In addition, bone grinding surgery may also lead to the deterioration of zygomatic, mandibular and other bone structures. Although the surgery will immediately change the face shape, the bone structure may gradually return to the original state as time goes by, so that the entire surgical effect gradually disappears.
2、 Risk of infection
Bone grinding surgery is an invasive surgery, and there is a risk of infection. During the operation, surgeons need to cut the skin to contact and change the bone structure, which opens the way for infection to enter the body. Postoperative infection may lead to incomplete recovery of the extracted or moved bones, which may cause problems in the overall surgical effect. At the same time, infection may also cause local redness, swelling, pain and long-term facial discomfort.
In order to reduce the risk of infection, aseptic operation should be strictly followed during the bone grinding operation, comprehensive disinfection preparation should be carried out before the operation, and proper wound treatment and antibiotic prevention should be carried out after the operation to ensure the cleanness and healing of the operation area.
3、 Nerve injury
Bone grinding surgery involves changes in skull bones, so there is a risk of peripheral nerve injury. The facial nerves may be cut or abraded during the operation. If the nerve is damaged, it may lead to facial numbness, abnormal sensation or facial muscle dysfunction.
The severity of nerve injury depends on the injured nerve and the level of surgical technique. When selecting surgeons, experienced and skilled professional doctors should be selected to reduce the risk of nerve injury. After surgery, patients need to pay close attention to changes in facial sensation and function, and report any discomfort to the doctor in time.
4、 Postoperative recovery
The recovery process after bone grinding surgery may be long and unpredictable. In a few weeks or months after the operation, the face may experience swelling, congestion, pain and other discomfort. In addition, irregular facial contours may need to be corrected after surgery, such as wearing orthotics or using specific facial massage techniques.
The quality of postoperative care and patient cooperation also have an important impact on the entire recovery process. In order to obtain the best surgical effect and recovery, patients need to follow the doctor's advice, take medicine on time, visit again regularly, and complete relevant rehabilitation training and nursing.
summary
Bone grinding surgery is a common cosmetic surgery, but there are also some risks. Deteriorating facial problems, infection risk, nerve injury and postoperative recovery are the main risks of bone grinding surgery. Nevertheless, selecting an appropriate surgeon, following the doctor's advice and cooperating with postoperative recovery can minimize the risk of surgery and achieve satisfactory results.
