Long Face Surgery: From a Long Face to a Balanced Proportion Balance out the length of the lower jaw and philtrum simultaneously.
What is Long Face?
Compared to the length of the forehead, the distance from the nose tip to the chin tip is particularly long, starting from below the eyebrows in the middle of the face. A long face can also describe simply a face that appears elongated or a long chin, but in many cases, protruding mouth or protruding chin appear together.

3
Preoperative inspection
Conducts a comprehensive health checkup to check the health status of the client before surgery.
02 Four-step Precision Diagnosis System
1
3D CT scan
Accurate data collection of the fine nerve distribution, bone thickness, and blood vessel location for precise treatment.
2
3D VTO
A digital simulation system for predicting post-operative state before the actual surgery.
3
Face-bow transfer and model mounting
A precision diagnostic system that measures the occlusal state, strength, and structure of the jaw with accurate measurement of the length and angle from the eye to the upper jaw.

Treatment for Different Types of Long Face
Before
After
01 Gummy smile
The facial length is great and needs a two-jaw surgery as the gums of the upper jaw have vertically overgrown. The mouth cannot close completely, upper teeth are visible when still, and gums are severely exposed. Two-jaw surgery is effective at reducing the length of the upper jaw after 16 to 18 years of age when development is complete. The surgery reduces the length of the middle part of the face and provides a natural mouth shape and face proportion.
02 Open bite – long face with protruding mouth
In this case, the occlusion of the upper and lower jaws is disproportional, making the face look longer. In the case of an open bite, it is difficult to bite into food because the upper and lower front teeth are not engaged, and mouth-breathing is also common in such cases. Malocclusion and long face can be corrected by correcting the upper and lower jaws through two-jaw surgery.

03 Only the chin tip is long – A long face with a developed lower jaw
For a face with a long chin tip despite the tooth engagement showing normal occlusion, chin tip plastic surgery is recommended as it reduces the chin tip without teeth correction for a harmonious face.

Chin tip surgery
Chin tip surgery for a long chin tip with normal occlusion The tip of the chin is cut and then moved forward for fixation.
T-osteotomy is performed on the chin tip while avoiding nerve damage.
The procedure removes bone fragments and brings together the tips of the chin bone.
Bone fragments are inserted into the front chin, and uneven chin lines are smoothed out on both sides.
