Surgery and Recovery
The surgical phase of a Facial Correction is a meticulously structured procedure performed under general anesthesia. Once the patient is stabilized, the surgeon begins by creating the necessary incisions based on the virtual surgical planning performed during the consultation. In a professional clinical sense, this involves the careful repositioning of bone segments or the placement of structural supports. At Liv Hospital, we utilize high-tech surgical platforms to ensure that every move is precise, minimizing trauma to the surrounding nerves and preserving the patient’s physical vitality throughout the intervention.
A vital component of many plans is the reinforcement of the internal framework of the face.
Specialists look for these indicators of tissue failure to ensure the structural stability of the face is restored. This proactive approach is a hallmark of the care at our facility.
During the surgery, the clinical team focuses on how the skin will settle over the corrected bone structure.
Defining the success of this phase involves microscopic precision to ensure blood flow to the skin remains intact, supporting the body’s natural biological healing.
Safety is the hallmark of the care at Liv Hospital. Following the procedure, the patient is moved to a high-tech recovery suite.
These preventative measures are essential for protecting your systemic health during the most fragile phase of the recovery journey.
Recovery from Correction of Facial Bone Disorders requires a dedicated period of low activity to allow the tissues to remodel.
Consistency with these protocols is vital. We provide a detailed roadmap to ensure that your progress feels natural and supports the body’s remaining resilience.
As the body stabilizes, patients are encouraged to begin gentle jaw movements to support circulation.
By navigating the complexities of post-surgical healing through a specialized lens, we ensure a safe return to independence.
Because many incisions are inside the mouth, nutrition is a non-negotiable part of the recovery logic.
Clinicians at Liv Hospital monitor your progress through regular check-ups to determine when it is safe to return to standard eating habits.
While the goal is a smooth recovery, you must be the first line of defense in recognizing potential issues. Contact Liv Hospital immediately if you experience:
Early reporting of these symptoms allows us to intervene quickly, protecting your progress and your overall physical vitality.
Recovering from facial procedures can be an emotional transition, especially when correcting Facial Asymmetry.
A positive mental outlook is a powerful force that improves the overall quality of your health journey. Our staff is always available to provide the emotional reassurance you need.
While we do not provide exact prices, it is helpful to understand the general global value of high-quality Facial Correction care. A comprehensive program—including surgery, facility fees, and initial recovery support—typically ranges from $8,000 to $25,000 globally, depending on the complexity of the bone movement. Investing in professional care at a center of excellence like Liv Hospital ensures the job is done correctly the first time, preventing the much higher costs of corrective surgery or permanent nerve damage.

In modern orthognathic surgery, jaws are rarely wired shut. We use rigid titanium plates and screws to hold the bones. You will likely have rubber bands to guide your bite, but you will be able to open your mouth to drink and speak immediately.
The majority of visible swelling (about 70-80%) goes down in the first 3 to 4 weeks. However, the residual subtle swelling can take 6 to 12 months to fully resolve, especially in the tip of the nose or the jawline.
You can usually brush the teeth away from the incision sites gently with a baby toothbrush the day after surgery. You must be very careful not to disturb the stitches in the gum line. Rinse gently after every meal.
If you have had nasal or jaw surgery, try to sneeze with your mouth open to release the pressure. Sneezing with the mouth closed can force air into the tissues or disrupt healing bones.
You must sleep on your back with your head elevated on 2 or 3 pillows (or in a recliner) for the first 2 to 3 weeks. This uses gravity to help drain the swelling away from your face. Sleeping on your side can cause asymmetrical swelling.
