WOORI PLASTIC SURGERY
01 Point: Designed with Full-Face Balance in Mind 3D Complex Facial Bone Surgery
Beauty completed from every angle
Double jaw surgery aligns the central facial axis, while facial contouring refines the cheekbone, jawline, and chin, creating a smooth and harmonious shape from both the front and side.
3D Design That Considers Both External Appearance and Internal Structure
This isn't just about changing visible lines. We create a more natural and balanced facial shape through a 3D design that takes into account bone, muscle, fat, skin, and teeth.
Results That Satisfy Both Facial Lines and Bite
WOORI's 3D Complex Facial Bone Surgery delivers both aesthetics and function.
| Surgery Type | Description |
|---|---|
| Double Jaw Surgery | Restores proper jaw position and function |
| Facial Contouring | Creates a defined, well-balanced facial shape |

02 Point: WOORI's Distinctive Double Jaw System Custom-Tailored Double Jaw Surgery
At WOORI Plastic Surgery, we use both IVRO (Intraoral Vertical Ramus Osteotomy) and SSRO (Sagittal Split Ramus Osteotomy) techniques. We select the optimal method based on each patient's condition, ensuring both effective results and safety.
| Comparison Point | IVRO (Intraoral Vertical Ramus Osteotomy) | SSRO (Sagittal Split Ramus Osteotomy) |
|---|---|---|
| Technique | Vertical Jawbone Cut: The rear part of the jawbone is cut vertically, top to bottom. Natural Healing: The lower jaw is repositioned, and the protruding bone is trimmed for natural bone-to-bone healing. | Jawbone Cut: The jawbone is cut longitudinally and thinly, separating it into two parts. Pin Fixation: After moving the jaw backward, fixation pins are applied to complete the surgery. |
| Surgery Time | Relatively shorter surgery time compared to SSRO | Relatively longer surgery time compared to IVRO |
| Jawbone Fixation | Naturally heals without fixation (requires 2 weeks of jaw immobilization) | The bone is secured using fixation pins (providing stable jaw movement during recovery) |
| Recovery Period | Initial physical therapy is required, but lower jaw function tends to recover quickly. | Less physical strain than IVRO, but a slower recovery time (heals more stably) |
| Chin Deficiency Surgery | Though challenging, it can be applied when the bone is thin, and is effective for improving a wide jawline. | Surgery for chin deficiency is possible |
| Note | You may feel the overlapping jawbone at the back during the initial healing period. | There is a risk of nerve damage due to proximity to the nerve canal. |
In such cases, double jaw surgery may be necessary.
Problems with jawbone position often affect not just appearance, but also bite, facial asymmetry, and function. If any of the following apply to you, a proper diagnosis may be necessary.
| Case Number | Condition | Description |
|---|---|---|
| CASE 01 | Protruding Jaw (*Skeletal Class III Malocclusion) | The lower jaw is overly developed, making it hard to close the mouth, with the chin noticeably protruding in the side profile. |
| CASE 02 | Receding Chin (*Skeletal Class II Malocclusion) | The lower jaw is severely retruded, causing a blurred facial contour and an unclear jaw-to-neck line. |
| CASE 04 | Protruding Mouth | Both the upper and lower jaws protrude forward, making it difficult to close the mouth, or giving a harsh-looking impression. |
| CASE 03 | Facial Asymmetry | The jaw is shifted to one side, or the facial midline is off-center, resulting in noticeable asymmetry. |
| CASE 05 | Long Face Shape | The face is vertically long, with an extended midface (nose to mouth area), giving a saggy or elongated appearance. |
03 Point: A Collaborative System with Orthodontics Considering Both Dental Occlusion and Jaw Joint Function
Double jaw surgery is a precise procedure that must consider both dental occlusion and jaw joint function.
For double jaw surgery, make sure to check the collaborative care system! At WOORI Plastic Surgery, we work closely with orthodontic specialists to achieve both function and aesthetics.
WOORI Plastic Surgery's Structured 6-Step System Double Jaw Surgery Process
| step | title | description | details |
|---|---|---|---|
| STEP 00 | 1:1 In-Depth Consultation with a Double Jaw/Facial Contouring Specialist | We thoroughly understand the patient's symptoms and needs, carefully observing the overall facial balance and features. | |
| STEP 01 | Visual Examination | We visually assess the condition of the teeth and the bite (occlusion). Through this step, the following details are carefully examined. | How far the upper (maxilla) and lower (mandible) jaws are misaligned from their ideal positions; The degree of inward angulation of the jawbone; Whether the amount of tooth exposure is appropriate; The level of asymmetry between the facial midline and the dental midline; The extent of gum exposure when smiling or speaking |
| STEP 02 | 3D CT Scan & In-Depth Analysis | Overall bone alignment, tooth root position, and bone thickness are precisely analyzed beyond what the eyes can see. | |
| STEP 03 | Tracing | The patient's actual skull image is printed, and the surgeon manually traces the maxilla and mandible to simulate jaw movement. | |
| STEP 04 | Mounting | Using a face bow, the position of the patient's maxilla is recorded based on actual skull orientation. The dental model is then mounted on an articulator to replicate the true position of the upper jaw. | Post-Surgery Outcome Prediction; Check overall facial balance based on simulated movement; Determine final surgical area and degree of repositioning |
| STEP 05 – Simulated Surgery | Model Surgery | On the mounted plaster model, the maxilla and mandible are moved in 3D as in actual surgery. This step includes creating the intermediate wafer — a guide used during surgery to position the maxilla accurately. | Accurately guides the maxilla to the planned position during surgery; Plays a key role in achieving the final bite alignment |
| STEP 06 | Actual Surgery | Using the wafer created during model surgery, the maxilla and mandible are moved precisely to their planned positions. Bone movement is performed with minimal error to ensure accuracy and safety. |
