itmeowshere Posted June 1, 2018 Posted June 1, 2018 So I have a problem.. My cheekbones are very wide on the sides, but in the front they aren’t as large as other patients. I was thinking of getting zygoma reduction, but since the cut starts at the front of the cheekbone, I am worried there won’t be enough volume left after the procedure is finished. Here is a photo of what my cheekbones are shaped like (that is not actually me in the picture) except with much wider arches. Is there any clinic that can reduce the arches without causing my frontal cheekbone to worsen? Banobagi, Regen? Thanks!
madambutterfly89 Posted June 1, 2018 Posted June 1, 2018 You'll gonna regret it....leave it alone. If your frontal cheekbones are flat it's going to elongate and make it worse. I learned the hard way.
madambutterfly89 Posted June 1, 2018 Posted June 1, 2018 It's sad that a surgeon who does this is either ignorant that it can make things aesthetically unpleasing or just doesn't care.
lovelypeach Posted June 1, 2018 Posted June 1, 2018 Hey, maybe try asking for info about quick zygoma! It's about reducing only side cheekbones and not all zygoma angles, so you keep the front volume
gats Posted June 2, 2018 Posted June 2, 2018 Another option to make zygoma seem smaller is to increase volume in other area of your face like forehead and frontal cheeks with fat graft. Is there any app which could model how that would look?
itmeowshere Posted June 2, 2018 Author Posted June 2, 2018 Thanks for the tip. Yes I’ve also seen this and was curious if this might be a solution. Only strange thing is I only know TLPS who does it but didn’t consult with them when I was in Korea. 6/6 clinics I consulted with all do full osteotomy.. and there aren’t that many reviews or before and after of the quick procedure
itmeowshere Posted June 2, 2018 Author Posted June 2, 2018 I considered that but I still think the width of my cheekbones is too wide compared to my jaw width, which fillers won’t be able to fix by themselves. So I asked this same question to a bunch of clinics in Korea but they all seem to think that it is not a problem, since the temperomandibular joint still provides width to the face. But yes I am very scared of having a long face after surgery especially since my jaw is not that wide
