A.Facial contouring surgery is a procedure that reshapes and enhances the natural structure of the face, targeting areas like the chin, jawline, cheekbones, and overall facial proportions to create a more balanced and harmonious look.

A. At HERSHE, we consider the three-dimensional aspects of your face. The surgery involves making precise incisions, whether inside the mouth or near the ear, to sculpt areas such as the chin, jawline, and cheekbones. By removing excess bone or muscle, we aim for a natural, well-defined contour that suits your unique features.

A. Our surgeon performs the procedure using inconspicuous incisions, such as inside the mouth or near the ear, making them less visible to the naked eye. With proper care, any scarring fades significantly over time and becomes hardly noticeable.

A. Recovery time varies depending on the procedure. Patients may experience significant swelling and bruising, which typically subside within 2 weeks, while minor swelling can persist for up to 3 months. Light activities can generally be resumed within a week, but full recovery may take several months.

A. Face contouring surgery is typically performed under general anesthesia, ensuring you won’t feel any pain during the surgery. Temporary discomfort or swelling may occur as the anesthesia wears off, but this is normal and can be effectively managed with prescribed pain medication.

A. The results of face contouring surgery are generally permanent since the bone structure is altered. However, the aesthetic appearance may change slightly over time due to natural aging, lifestyle factors, and skin elasticity. With proper care and a healthy lifestyle, the results can last for many years.

A. Prior to the surgery, the clinic will provide you with explanations, consent forms, and pre-surgery instructions. After the surgery, the clinic will provide post-surgery instructions as well as prescribed medication. After surgery, it is recommended to wear a compression band consistently for about one month to help reduce swelling and sagging. Stitches will be removed 7 days after surgery, but absorbable sutures inside the mouth do not need removal. You can wash your hair 5 days after surgery, but take only light showers for the first 2 weeks. Avoid baths or saunas for one month. If you have stitches in your mouth, rinse frequently with a mild mouthwash to prevent bacteria buildup. Stick to a liquid diet for the first 3-4 days, then eat soft foods like porridge, tofu, or eggs for the next 2 weeks. Avoid alcohol and smoking for one month, as they can delay healing. Light exercise, such as stretching, can start 2-3 weeks after surgery, depending on your recovery.
