Zygoma Revision Surgery: Removing 20 Pins and Fixing Bone Gaps After Jaw Op

This video showcases a revision surgery case of a patient who had undergone multiple previous facial contouring surgeries, resulting in 20 fixation pins embedded in their face and widened bone gaps. The patient had undergone cheekbone surgery twice, orthognathic surgery, and V-line surgery. Notably, the right cheekbone had a wide bone gap, 8mm in width and 27mm in length, barely held in place by pins alone. At On Clinic, the surgery aimed to remove all 20 unnecessary pins, improve cheekbone asymmetry, and perfectly fill the widened bone gaps. Post-operative 3D CT results confirmed that the cheekbones were naturally elevated and the bone gaps had completely disappeared, with the patient also expressing satisfaction with the more youthful appearance and perfect outcome.
