Difference between osteotomy and bone grinding in Shenzhen

Shenzhen, as one of the fastest growing metropolises in China, has witnessed the rapid development of various cosmetic and plastic surgery. Bone cutting and bone grinding is one of the common plastic surgery. They are different in improving facial contour and line. Next, we will introduce the difference between osteotomy and bone grinding in Shenzhen from four aspects: operation method, operation site, effect and safety.

1. Operation method

Osteotomy is a surgical method of cutting and shifting bones, which changes the facial contour by moving bones. Craniotomy is usually required to cut and reconstruct bones, which is risky. The bone grinding surgery is to grind the bones through chemical or mechanical methods to make them smoother, so as to change the shape and contour of the face. Relatively speaking, the bone grinding operation is more simple and convenient in the surgical method.

However, the choice of surgical methods should also be determined according to individual facial characteristics and expected effects. For the face contour that needs to be adjusted greatly, osteotomy may be more suitable, while for the part that needs to be adjusted slightly, bone grinding is more effective.

2. Operation site

Osteotomy is mainly applied to bone protrusions, such as jaw angle, frontal bone, zygomatic bone, etc. The bone structure of these parts is prominent, which needs to be cut and shifted by surgery to achieve plastic effect. The bone grinding operation is mainly applied to the cheeks, mandibles, cheekbones and other parts. It can smooth the bones by grinding them, thus changing the contour of the face.

It should be noted that the selection of surgical site should be comprehensively evaluated and recommended by professional plastic surgeons according to individual facial characteristics and expected effects.

3. Effect

The effect of osteotomy is different from that of bone grinding. The osteotomy can adjust the facial contour by changing the bone structure, and the effect is relatively obvious and lasting. However, due to the need for cutting and displacement, the postoperative recovery period is long, and there may be some surgical risks.

The bone grinding operation realizes the change of facial shape by grinding the bone surface, with relatively slight effect, but it recovers quickly after the operation, and the operation risk is also small. Bone grinding surgery is suitable for situations requiring partial adjustment and minor changes.

4. Safety

There are also some differences in safety between osteotomy and bone grinding. Osteotomy requires craniotomy, with relatively high risk. Strict examination and nursing are required before and after the operation. The bone grinding operation is a non open operation with low risk and quick recovery, but it still needs to be operated in a regular hospital and senior doctors according to personal conditions.

To sum up, there are some differences between osteotomy and bone grinding in Shenzhen in terms of operation method, operation site, effect and safety. It is very important to select suitable surgical methods and hospitals according to individual needs and facial characteristics. Before plastic surgery, it is recommended to consult a professional plastic surgeon to fully understand the risks and effects of surgery and ensure that a wise decision is made.
