Frequently among Asians, the jawline is
prominent and is out of proportion to the rest
of the face. For those wanting to achieve a more
proportionate look, they seek jaw reduction
surgery. This is in contrast to Caucasians, who
tend to be deficient in this area and require
implantation. Dr.
Somyos Kunachak is a plastic
surgeon who performs jaw reduction surgery using
a technique that is specific to the Asian
patient.
With Asians, the traditional jaw reduction
treatment has been to grind away the outer
portion of the jaw to narrow the face. At Dr.
Somyos Kunachak's practice, we offer a minimally-invasive
alternative. We use BOTOX ®, MYOBLOC ® to
achieve jaw reduction, which we have been using
for over three years and treating hundreds of
patients. These injections only take a few
minutes to an hour, depending on the patient's
condition. Plus with this form of jaw reduction,
patients do not receive any incisions or lose
time from recovery.
If you are someone looking to undergo jaw
reduction, contact our office today and
schedule a consultation appointment. When
considering any form of cosmetic surgery, it is
important to have a good understanding of the
procedure before making a decision. By meeting
with Dr. Somyos
Kunachak for a consultation visit, you can
gain the information you need to know about jaw
reduction.
