A 26 year old boy visited our hospital seeking for correction of his facial profile to enhance the appearance. He was under orthodontic treatment for past 2 years elsewhere. But he was not satisfied with the results and thus he wants to have surgical correction of his jaw without any scars on the face.
After thorough clinical and radiological examination, Maxillofacial Surgeon Dr. S.M.Balaji planned to correct his face by following corrective jaw surgery. He has short upper lip due to vertical maxillary excess which was corrected by Lefort I osteotomy. His profile shows short chin giving round face appearance. This was corrected by augmenting the genium using costochondral rib graft. Thus entire surgery was done inside the mouth and his facial appearance improved dramatically. Patient feels very happy to have the entire facial correction in a single surgery and without any visible surgical marks on the face.
