Face Contouring FAQ

How long is recovery for jaw surgery?

Most patients can return to light activities after 2 weeks. Major swelling subsides in 2-4 weeks. Final results are visible after 3-6 months as swelling fully resolves.

Is face contouring surgery safe?

All surgery carries risks, and facial bone surgery is major surgery under general anesthesia, with risks such as nerve injury, bleeding and asymmetry. Many clinics use 3D CT planning and ultrasonic bone cutting, and your surgeon will explain the risks that apply to you at the consultation. Results vary from person to person.

Will I have visible scars?

Face contouring incisions are usually made inside the mouth, so visible external scars are generally avoided, although some procedures may need a small external incision. Your surgeon will explain where incisions are placed.

How long should I stay in Korea?

We recommend 2-3 weeks for facial bone surgery to allow for initial recovery and stitch removal before flying home.

Can I combine with other procedures?

Some patients combine face contouring with rhinoplasty or double eyelid surgery. Your surgeon decides what can safely be combined, and we coordinate the schedule.

Face contouring: risks, side effects and recovery

Every medical procedure carries risks. These are the main ones to discuss with your surgeon or physician — they will explain the risks that apply to you before you give consent.

  • General surgical risks: bleeding, infection, scarring, delayed wound healing, blood clots (deep vein thrombosis), reactions to anaesthesia, and a result that does not meet your expectations or needs revision surgery.
  • Nerve damage causing numbness of the lips, chin or cheeks, which can last months or be permanent; injury to facial nerves affecting movement.
  • Infection, prolonged swelling, asymmetry, sagging soft tissue, bone healing problems, jaw joint (TMJ) problems and changes to the bite (especially after jaw surgery).
  • Facial bone surgery is major surgery under general anaesthesia with airway and bleeding risks.

Recovery: Swelling can last several weeks to months. Plan for about 2–3 weeks in Korea and follow-up visits.
