Zygoma Reduction in Seoul | Gangnam Arc Plastic Surgery Clinic & Cost

What is Zygoma Reduction Surgery?

Zygoma reduction, also known as cheekbone reduction surgery, is a facial contouring procedure designed to reshape and reduce prominent cheekbones for a softer, more balanced facial profile. By adjusting the zygomatic bones, this surgery helps create a slimmer and more proportionate appearance without compromising facial harmony.

Common reasons for zygoma reduction include:

• Wide or protruding cheekbones that give a broad facial appearance
• Asymmetry in cheekbone structure
• Desire for a more V-shaped or oval facial contour
• Balancing facial proportions for a refined look

Dr. Kwon at Arc Plastic Surgery Clinic specializes in advanced facial contouring techniques to achieve natural and harmonious results.

Am I a Good Candidate for Zygoma Reduction?

You may be a good candidate if:

• You have wide or protruding cheekbones that make your face appear broad
• You want a slimmer, more contoured facial structure
• You have good bone density and overall health
• You have realistic expectations about the results
• A consultation with Dr. Kwon will determine the best surgical approach based on your facial structure and goals.

Zygoma Reduction Procedure

Zygoma reduction is performed under general anesthesia and takes about 1.5 to 2.5 hours. The surgery involves precise bone reshaping to reduce the width of the cheekbones while maintaining facial balance.



Key Steps of the Procedure:

1. Incisions made inside the mouth and near the sideburns to ensure minimal visible scarring.
2. Bone shaving or osteotomy (bone cutting) to adjust the cheekbone position.
3. Rotational or L-shaped osteotomy to achieve a natural and smooth contour.
4. Fixation with plates or screws to stabilize the new bone position.

Dr. Kwon’s approach ensures a balanced and natural result while minimizing risks of sagging or unnatural contours.

Recovery and Aftercare

• Swelling and bruising peak within the first 7–10 days and gradually subside over 4–6 weeks.
• Soft diet recommended for 1–2 weeks due to intraoral incisions.
• Compression bandages may be worn for facial support.
• Most patients return to daily activities in 2–3 weeks, with full recovery in 3–6 months.
• Follow-up appointments ensure proper healing and facial symmetry.

Following post-surgery care instructions is essential for a smooth recovery and optimal results.
