Faciomaxillary surgery
Our Results
Faciomaxillary surgery
Left: A person with loss of his lip following a human bite. Right: Photo post reconstruction. Note the perfect alignment, making it impossible to imagine the severity of the primary injury
A man with a shattered cheek bone ( zygoma ). Note the severe swelling, and the absence of a normal cheek prominence in the side view
Post surgery. Note that his cheek is prominent now, and he has few visible scars to show for such a remarkable result!
A professional with a disfiguring wound to his eyebrow
Left: Immediately after surgery. Right: Note the perfect alignment of the eyebrow and imperceptible scar just 2 months after surgery.
A 60 year old gentleman with a shattered nasal bone. Note the wound in the centre and displaced, and flattened nasal bridge
The same man post suturing and nasal bone correction. No deviation is seen and the central depression has disappeared. He is thrilled that he looks the same as before his surgery and with no traces of any procedure having been done!
Another severe wound to the eyebrow
The post operative result, showing perfect alignment and a nearly invisible wound.
